Mathematical analysis for the peridynamic nonlocal continuum theory

Qiang Du, Kun Zhou (2011)

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

We develop a functional analytical framework for a linear peridynamic model of a spring network system in any space dimension. Various properties of the peridynamic operators are examined for general micromodulus functions. These properties are utilized to establish the well-posedness of both the stationary peridynamic model and the Cauchy problem of the time dependent peridynamic model. The connections to the classical elastic models are also provided.

Mathematical modelling and numerical solution of swelling of cartilaginous tissues. Part I: Modelling of incompressible charged porous media

Kamyar Malakpoor, Enrique F. Kaasschieter, Jacques M. Huyghe (2007)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis

The swelling and shrinkage of biological tissues are modelled by a four-component mixture theory in which a deformable and charged porous medium is saturated with a fluid with dissolved ions. Four components are defined: solid, liquid, cations and anions. The aim of this paper is the construction of the Lagrangian model of the four-component system. It is shown that, with the choice of Lagrangian description of the solid skeleton, the motion of the other components can be described in terms of...

Mathematical modelling of rock bolt reinforcement

Runt, David, Novotný, Jaroslav, Pruška, Jan (2017)

Programs and Algorithms of Numerical Mathematics

Rock bolts as construction elements are often used in underground civil engineering projects. This work deals with their numerical modelling. Aydan special finite elements for the description of rock bolts and hexahedral quadratic finite elements for the description of rock massif were used. A code for the computation of stiffness matrices and right hand sides of these elements was developed. The code was tested on several simple test examples and their results were compared with the analytical...

Mesh r-adaptation for unilateral contact problems

Pierre Béal, Jonas Koko, Rachid Touzani (2002)

International Journal of Applied Mathematics and Computer Science

We present a mesh adaptation method by node movement for two-dimensional linear elasticity problems with unilateral contact. The adaptation is based on a hierarchical estimator on finite element edges and the node displacement techniques use an analogy of the mesh topology with a spring network. We show, through numerical examples, the efficiency of the present adaptation method.

Multiscale expansion and numerical approximation for surface defects⋆

V. Bonnaillie-Noël, D. Brancherie, M. Dambrine, F. Hérau, S. Tordeux, G. Vial (2011)

ESAIM: Proceedings

This paper is a survey of articles [5, 6, 8, 9, 13, 17, 18]. We are interested in the influence of small geometrical perturbations on the solution of elliptic problems. The cases of a single inclusion or several well-separated inclusions have been deeply studied. We recall here techniques to construct an asymptotic expansion. Then we consider moderately close inclusions, i.e. the distance between the inclusions tends to zero more slowly than their characteristic size. We provide a complete asymptotic...

Multiscale finite element coarse spaces for the application to linear elasticity

Marco Buck, Oleg Iliev, Heiko Andrä (2013)

Open Mathematics

We extend the multiscale finite element method (MsFEM) as formulated by Hou and Wu in [Hou T.Y., Wu X.-H., A multiscale finite element method for elliptic problems in composite materials and porous media, J. Comput. Phys., 1997, 134(1), 169–189] to the PDE system of linear elasticity. The application, motivated by the multiscale analysis of highly heterogeneous composite materials, is twofold. Resolving the heterogeneities on the finest scale, we utilize the linear MsFEM basis for the construction...
