The weak solution of an antiplane contact problem for electro-viscoelastic materials with long-term memory

Ammar Derbazi, Mohamed Dalah, Amar Megrous (2016)

Applications of Mathematics

We study a mathematical model which describes the antiplane shear deformation of a cylinder in frictionless contact with a rigid foundation. The material is assumed to be electro-viscoelastic with long-term memory, and the friction is modeled with Tresca's law and the foundation is assumed to be electrically conductive. First we derive the classical variational formulation of the model which is given by a system coupling an evolutionary variational equality for the displacement field with a time-dependent...

Théorème de minimax sans topologie ni convexité

Andrzej Granas, Jin-Rong Lee, Fon-Che Liu (1992)

Colloquium Mathematicae

Dans cete note, nous présentons un théorème de minimax (Théorème A) formulé seulement en langage de la théorie des ensembles. Ce résultat permet de déduire de façon immédiate (en utilisant un lemme de topologie générale) plusieurs théorèmes de minimax bien connus.

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...

Tilt stability in nonlinear programming under Mangasarian-Fromovitz constraint qualification

Boris S. Mordukhovich, Jiří V. Outrata (2013)

Kybernetika

The paper concerns the study of tilt stability of local minimizers in standard problems of nonlinear programming. This notion plays an important role in both theoretical and numerical aspects of optimization and has drawn a lot of attention in optimization theory and its applications, especially in recent years. Under the classical Mangasarian-Fromovitz Constraint Qualification, we establish relationships between tilt stability and some other stability notions in constrained optimization. Involving...

Time domain decomposition in final value optimal control of the Maxwell system

John E. Lagnese, G. Leugering (2002)

ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations

We consider a boundary optimal control problem for the Maxwell system with a final value cost criterion. We introduce a time domain decomposition procedure for the corresponding optimality system which leads to a sequence of uncoupled optimality systems of local-in-time optimal control problems. In the limit full recovery of the coupling conditions is achieved, and, hence, the local solutions and controls converge to the global ones. The process is inherently parallel and is suitable for real-time...
