A note on the quasi-static problem of periodic linearized thermoviscoelasticity
Newton-like methods are considered with inexact correction computed by some inner iterative method. Composite iterative methods of this type are applied to the solution of nonlinear systems arising from the solution of nonlinear elliptic boundary value problems. Two main quastions are studied in this paper: the convergence of the inexact Newton-like methods and the efficient control of accuracy in computation of the inexact correction. Numerical experiments show the efficiency of the suggested composite...
The present paper deals with numerical solution of a viscoelastic plate. The discrete problem is defined by -elements and a linear multistep method. The effect of numerical integration is studied as well. The rate of cnvergence is established. Some examples are given in the conclusion.
In connection with the determination of the free energy functional for the viscoelastic stress tensor, a viscoelastic material is considered as described by a material with internal variables. In this framework the free energy is uniquely determined. It proves to be the minimal one in the class of thermodynamically admissible free energies.
The global in time solvability of the one-dimensional nonlinear equations of thermoelasticity, equations of viscoelasticity and nonlinear wave equations in several space dimensions with some boundary dissipation is discussed. The blow up of the solutions which might be possible even for small data is excluded by allowing for a certain dissipative mechanism.
— Si mostra come la scelta di una topologia nello spazio delle funzioni ammissibili, in taluni problemi, influenzi i relativi risultati. Vengono mostrati tre esempi. Due tratti dall'Analisi matematica pura: uno riguardante la stabilità della soluzione di un'equazione integrale di Volterra e l'altro il problema di Cauchy per l'equazione di Laplace come «problema ben posto». Il terzo esempio è relativo alla Fisica matematica, precisamente al «Principio della Memoria evanescente» in Viscoelasticità....
The integral constitutive equations of a multipolar viscoelastic material are analyzed from the thermodynamic point of view. They are shown to be approximated by those of the differential-type viscous materials when the processes are slow. As a consequence of the thermodynamic compatibility of the viscoelastic model, the coefficients of viscosity of the approximate viscous model are shown to have an Onsager-type symmetry. This symmetry was employed earlier in the proof of the existence of solutions...
