Automated identification of Monogeneans using digital image processing and K-nearest neighbour approaches.
BACKGROUND: Monogeneans are flatworms (Platyhelminthes) that are primarily found on gills and skin of fishes. Monogenean parasites have attachment appendages at their haptoral regions that help them to move about the body...
A Unified Abaqus Implementation of the Phase Field Fracture Method Using Only a User Material Subroutine.
We present a simple and robust implementation of the phase field fracture method in Abaqus. Unlike previous works, only a user material (UMAT) subroutine is used. This is achieved by exploiting the analogy between the phase...
