On a 1-D model of stress relaxation in an annealed glass

Vladimír Janovský, David Just (2002)

Applications of Mathematics

A 1-D model of a slab of glass of a small thickness is considered. The governing equations are those of the classical 1-D linear viscoelasticity. A load due to the temperature gradients is assumed. The aim is to model the process called annealing. It is shown that an additional load due to structural strain is crucial for the success of the model. Algorithms of a numerical solution of the governing equations are proposed. Numerical results are presented and commented.

On a 2D vector Poisson problem with apparently mutually exclusive scalar boundary conditions

Jean-Luc Guermond, Luigi Quartapelle, Jiang Zhu (2010)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis

This work is devoted to the study of a two-dimensional vector Poisson equation with the normal component of the unknown and the value of the divergence of the unknown prescribed simultaneously on the entire boundary. These two scalar boundary conditions appear prima facie alternative in a standard variational framework. An original variational formulation of this boundary value problem is proposed here. Furthermore, an uncoupled solution algorithm is introduced together with its finite element...

On a certain two-sided symmetric condition in magnetic field analysis and computations

František Melkes, Alexander Ženíšek (1997)

Applications of Mathematics

A special two-sided condition for the incremental magnetic reluctivity is introduced which guarantees the unique existence of both the weak and the approximate solutions of the nonlinear stationary magnetic field distributed on a region composed of different media, as well as a certain estimate of the error between the two solutions. The condition, being discussed from the physical as well as the mathematical point of view, can be easily verified and is fulfilled for various magnetic reluctivity...
