Lightweight framework of shell models utilizing local heat sensors by Shengfa Wang, Longfei Zhang, Baojun Li, Zhongxuan Luo

“…Specifically, first, both geometric features and empirical features are introduced to construct a frame structure. Second, a local diffusion–based heat sensor network is exploited to simulate the stress distribution due to two reasons: one is that they have the similar physical transmissibility and the other is that the heat diffusion is smooth, and it guarantees that the thickness variation is smooth and natural without restriction on the degrees of freedom. …”
