Distributional derivatives of functions of two variables of finite variation and their application to an impulsive hyperbolic equation

Dariusz Idczak (1998)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

We give characterizations of the distributional derivatives D 1 , 1 , D 1 , 0 , D 0 , 1 of functions of two variables of locally finite variation. Then we use these results to prove the existence theorem for the hyperbolic equation with a nonhomogeneous term containing the distributional derivative determined by an additive function of an interval of finite variation. An application of the above theorem to a hyperbolic equation with an impulse effect is also given.

Divergence boundary conditions for vector Helmholtz equations with divergence constraints

Urve Kangro, Roy Nicolaides (2010)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis

The idea of replacing a divergence constraint by a divergence boundary condition is investigated. The connections between the formulations are considered in detail. It is shown that the most common methods of using divergence boundary conditions do not always work properly. Necessary and sufficient conditions for the equivalence of the formulations are given.

Effective computation of restoring force vector in finite element method

Martin Balazovjech, Ladislav Halada (2007)

Kybernetika

We introduce a new way of computation of time dependent partial differential equations using hybrid method FEM in space and FDM in time domain and explicit computational scheme. The key idea is quick transformation of standard basis functions into new simple basis functions. This new way is used for better computational efficiency. We explain this way of computation on an example of elastodynamic equation using quadrilateral elements. However, the method can be used for more types of elements and...

Elastic wave equation

Yves Colin de Verdière (2006/2007)

Séminaire de théorie spectrale et géométrie

The goal of this talk is to describe the Lamé operator which drives the propagation of linear elastic waves. The main motivation for me is the work I have done in collaboration with Michel Campillo’s group from LGIT (Grenoble) on passive imaging in seismology. From this work, several mathematical problems emerged: equipartition of energy between S - and P - waves, high frequency description of surface waves in a stratified medium and related inverse spectral problems.We discuss the following topics:What...

Elastic wave propagation in parallel: the Huygens' approach.

Javier Sabadell (2002)

Revista Matemática Complutense

The use of parallel computers makes it feasible to simulate elastic waves throughout large heterogeneous structures, and new domain decomposition methods can be used to increase their efficiency and decrease the computing time spent in the simulation. In this paper we introduce a simple parallel algorithm for the propagation of elastic waves in complex heterogeneous media after a finite element discretization. This method performs more efficiently than classic domain decomposition techniques based...

Enlarged Asymptotic Compensation in Discrete Distributed Systems

L. Afifi, M. Hakam, M. Bahadi, A. El Jai (2010)

Mathematical Modelling of Natural Phenomena

This work concerns an enlarged analysis of the problem of asymptotic compensation for a class of discrete linear distributed systems. We study the possibility of asymptotic compensation of a disturbance by bringing asymptotically the observation in a given tolerance zone 𝒞. Under convenient hypothesis, we show the existence and the unicity of the optimal control ensuring this compensation and we give its characterization
