Guaranteed and computable bounds of the limit load for variational problems with linear growth energy functionals

Jaroslav Haslinger, Sergey Repin, Stanislav Sysala (2016)

Applications of Mathematics

Similarity:

The paper is concerned with guaranteed and computable bounds of the limit (or safety) load, which is one of the most important quantitative characteristics of mathematical models associated with linear growth functionals. We suggest a new method for getting such bounds and illustrate its performance. First, the main ideas are demonstrated with the paradigm of a simple variational problem with a linear growth functional defined on a set of scalar valued functions. Then, the method is...

Regularization of noncoercive constraints in Hencky plasticity

Jarosław L. Bojarski (2005)

Applicationes Mathematicae

Similarity:

The aim of this paper is to find the largest lower semicontinuous minorant of the elastic-plastic energy of a body with fissures. The functional of energy considered is not coercive.

General method of regularization. I: Functionals defined on BD space

Jarosław L. Bojarski (2004)

Applicationes Mathematicae

Similarity:

The aim of this paper is to prove that the relaxation of the elastic-perfectly plastic energy (of a solid made of a Hencky material) is the lower semicontinuous regularization of the plastic energy. We find the integral representation of a non-locally coercive functional. In part II, we will show that the set of solutions of the relaxed problem is equal to the set of solutions of the relaxed problem proposed by Suquet. Moreover, we will prove the existence theorem for the limit analysis...

On integral representation, relaxation and homogenization for unbounded functionals

Luciano Carbone, Riccardo De Arcangelis (1997)

Atti della Accademia Nazionale dei Lincei. Classe di Scienze Fisiche, Matematiche e Naturali. Rendiconti Lincei. Matematica e Applicazioni

Similarity:

A theory of integral representation, relaxation and homogenization for some types of variational functionals taking extended real values and possibly being not finite also on large classes of regular functions is presented. Some applications to gradient constrained relaxation and homogenization problems are given.

General method of regularization. III: The unilateral contact problem

Jarosław L. Bojarski (2004)

Applicationes Mathematicae

Similarity:

The aim of this paper is to prove that the relaxation of the elastic-perfectly plastic energy (of a solid made of a Hencky material with the Signorini constraints on the boundary) is the weak* lower semicontinuous regularization of the plastic energy. We consider an elastic-plastic solid endowed with the von Mises (or Tresca) yield condition. Moreover, we show that the set of solutions of the relaxed problem is equal to the set of solutions of the relaxed problem proposed by Suquet....

A General Linear Theory of Elastic Plates and its Variational Validation

Danilo Percivale, Paolo Podio-Guidugli (2009)

Bollettino dell'Unione Matematica Italiana

Similarity:

We provide a variational justification for shearable-plate models that generalize the classic Reissner-Mindlin model. Firstly, we give an argument leading to choose a fairly general linearly elastic monoclinic material response. Secondly, we prove that, for materials in such constitutive class, the variational limit of certain suitably scaled 3D energies is a functional whose minimum over a maximal subspace of admissible functions coincides with the minimum of the generalized Reissner-Mindlin...

Minimization of functional with integrand expressed as minimum of quasiconvex functions - general and special cases

Piotr Puchała (2014)

Banach Center Publications

Similarity:

We present Z. Naniewicz method of optimization a coercive integral functional 𝒥 with integrand being a minimum of quasiconvex functions. This method is applied to the minimization of functional with integrand expressed as a minimum of two quadratic functions. This is done by approximating the original nonconvex problem by appropriate convex ones.
