Theoretical aspects and numerical computation of the time-harmonic Green's function for an isotropic elastic half-plane with an impedance boundary condition

Mario Durán, Eduardo Godoy, Jean-Claude Nédélec (2010)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis

This work presents an effective and accurate method for determining, from a theoretical and computational point of view, the time-harmonic Green's function of an isotropic elastic half-plane where an impedance boundary condition is considered. This method, based on the previous work done by Durán et al. (cf. [Numer. Math.107 (2007) 295–314; IMA J. Appl. Math.71 (2006) 853–876]) for the Helmholtz equation in a half-plane, combines appropriately analytical and numerical techniques, which has an important...

Theoretical aspects of a multiscale analysis of the eigenoscillations of the Earth.

Volker Michel (2003)

Revista Matemática Complutense

The elastic behaviour of the Earth, including its eigenoscillations, is usually described by the Cauchy-Navier equation. Using a standard approach in seismology we apply the Helmholtz decomposition theorem to transform the Fourier transformed Cauchy-Navier equation into two non-coupled Helmholtz equations and then derive sequences of fundamental solutions for this pair of equations using the Mie representation. Those solutions are denoted by the Hansen vectors Ln,j, Mn,j, and Nn,j in geophysics....

Thermo-visco-elasticity with rate-independent plasticity in isotropic materials undergoing thermal expansion

Sören Bartels, Tomáš Roubíček (2011)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis - Modélisation Mathématique et Analyse Numérique

We consider a viscoelastic solid in Kelvin-Voigt rheology exhibiting also plasticity with hardening and coupled with heat-transfer through dissipative heat production by viscoplastic effects and through thermal expansion and corresponding adiabatic effects. Numerical discretization of the thermodynamically consistent model is proposed by implicit time discretization, suitable regularization, and finite elements in space. Fine a-priori estimates are derived, and convergence is proved by careful successive...

Thick obstacle problems with dynamic adhesive contact

Jeongho Ahn (2008)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis

In this work, we consider dynamic frictionless contact with adhesion between a viscoelastic body of the Kelvin-Voigt type and a stationary rigid obstacle, based on the Signorini's contact conditions. Including the adhesion processes modeled by the bonding field, a new version of energy function is defined. We use the energy function to derive a new form of energy balance which is supported by numerical results. Employing the time-discretization, we establish a numerical formulation and investigate...
