The far-field asymptotic solutions for the second-order diffracted waves have been developed, both in three and two-dimensional problems. The radiation conditions for the second-order diffracted waves are derived by using the asymptotic solutions. The nonlinear wave forces on a half-circular cylinder on seabed are presented by using finite element methods with the radiation conditions imposed on the artificial boundaries.

The specific case of scattering of a plane wave by a two-layered penetrable eccentric circular cylinder has been considered and it is about the validity of the on surface radiation condition method and its applications to the scattering of a plane wave by a two-layered penetrable eccentric circular cylinder. The transformation of the problem of scattering by the eccentric circular cylinder to the problem of scattering by the concentric circular cylinder by using higher order radiation conditions, is observed. Numerical results presented the magnitude of the far field.

The first and second-order radiation conditions for scattering waves in two and three-dimensional problems have been derived by virtue of a sequence of linear differential operators. The wave forces on a large circular cylinder are computed by using finite element methods with first and second-order radiation conditions and the Sommerfeld condition, respectively. The results show that an improvement in accuracy is achieved by employing the second-order radiation condition. The interior region in which finite elements are employed can be restricted to a much smaller one, compared with that using the Sommerfeld condition and the computing efforts and required storage in the computer are reduced.

In this paper, we consider the finite element method for two-dimensional nonlinear modified time-fractional fourth-order diffusion equation. In order to avoid using higher order elements, we introduce an intermediate variable [Formula: see text] and translate the fourth-order derivative of the original problem into a second-order coupled system. We discretize the fractional time derivative terms by using the [Formula: see text]-approximation and discretize the first-order time derivative term by using the second-order backward differentiation formula. In the fully discrete scheme, we implement the finite element method for the spatial approximation. Unconditional stability of the fully discrete scheme is proven and its optimal convergence order is obtained. Numerical experiments are carried out to demonstrate our theoretical analysis.

Nonlinear wave forces on fixed or floating offshore structures have attracted much attention recently. This paper deals with the nonlinear effects of regular waves on fixed two-dimensional bodies up to second-order terms. The second-order diffraction potential is solved consistently and the second-order steady wave forces and the biharmonic wave forces with frequency corresponding to the double of the incident wave frequency are obtained.

The paper describes a second-order two-scale computational homogenization procedure for modeling of heterogeneous materials at small strains. The Aifantis theory of linear elasticity has been described and implemented into the two dimensional C1 continuity triangular finite element formulation. The element has been verified on several patch tests and the computational efficiency of numerical integration of the element stiffness matrix has been tested as well. Furthermore, the C1 two dimensional triangular finite element based on full second gradient continuum is formulated and used for the macrolevel discretization in the frame of a multiscale scheme, where the RVE is discretized by the C0 quadrilateral finite element. The application of generalized periodic boundary conditions and the microfluctuation integral condition on RVE has been investigated. The presented numerical algorithms have been implemented into FE software ABAQUS via user subroutines and verified on a pure bending problem. The comparability of RVE size to the length scale parameter of gradient elasticity has been proved, and elastoplastic behavior of heterogeneous material has been also considered. The results obtained show good numerical efficiency of the proposed algorithms.
