Bloch wave homogenization of linear elasticity system

Sista Sivaji Ganesh, Muthusamy Vanninathan (2005)

ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations

In this article, the homogenization process of periodic structures is analyzed using Bloch waves in the case of system of linear elasticity in three dimensions. The Bloch wave method for homogenization relies on the regularity of the lower Bloch spectrum. For the three dimensional linear elasticity system, the first eigenvalue is degenerate of multiplicity three and hence existence of such a regular Bloch spectrum is not guaranteed. The aim here is to develop all necessary spectral tools to overcome...

Boubaker hybrid functions and their application to solve fractional optimal control and fractional variational problems

Kobra Rabiei, Yadollah Ordokhani (2018)

Applications of Mathematics

A new hybrid of block-pulse functions and Boubaker polynomials is constructed to solve the inequality constrained fractional optimal control problems (FOCPs) with quadratic performance index and fractional variational problems (FVPs). First, the general formulation of the Riemann-Liouville integral operator for Boubaker hybrid function is presented for the first time. Then it is applied to reduce the problems to optimization problems, which can be solved by the existing method. In this way we find...
