Approximation of the vibration modes of a plate coupled with a fluid by low-order isoparametric finite elements

Erwin Hernández (2004)

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

We analyze an isoparametric finite element method to compute the vibration modes of a plate, modeled by Reissner-Mindlin equations, in contact with a compressible fluid, described in terms of displacement variables. To avoid locking in the plate, we consider a low-order method of the so called MITC (Mixed Interpolation of Tensorial Component) family on quadrilateral meshes. To avoid spurious modes in the fluid, we use a low-order hexahedral Raviart-Thomas elements and a non conforming coupling is...

Convergenza per l'equazione degli integrali primi associata al problema del rimbalzo

Michele Carriero, Antonio Leaci, Eduardo Pascali (1982)

Atti della Accademia Nazionale dei Lincei. Classe di Scienze Fisiche, Matematiche e Naturali. Rendiconti Lincei. Matematica e Applicazioni

In this paper we present a few results on convergence for the prime integrals equations connected with the bounce problem. This approach allows both to prove uniqueness for the one-dimensional bounce problem for almost all permissible Cauchy data (see also [6]) and to deepen previous results (see [3], [5], [7]).

Coupled string-beam equations as a model of suspension bridges

Pavel Drábek, Herbert Leinfelder, Gabriela Tajčová (1999)

Applications of Mathematics

We consider nonlinearly coupled string-beam equations modelling time-periodic oscillations in suspension bridges. We prove the existence of a unique solution under suitable assumptions on certain parameters of the bridge.

Dissipatività e unicità per il problema dinamico unidimensionale della viscoelasticità lineare

Giorgio Vergara Caffarelli (1988)

Atti della Accademia Nazionale dei Lincei. Classe di Scienze Fisiche, Matematiche e Naturali. Rendiconti Lincei. Matematica e Applicazioni

Fissato lo spazio di Sobolev H 1 , 2 come ambiente del problema dinamico per un corpo viscoelastico unidimensionale si dimostra un teorema di unicità per la classe delle funzioni di rilassamento convesse. Si fa inoltre vedere come tale unicità sia strettamente legata allo spazio ambiente considerato.

Dynamic contact problems with slip-dependent friction in viscoelasticity

Ioan Ionescu, Quoc-Lan Nguyen (2002)

International Journal of Applied Mathematics and Computer Science

The dynamic evolution with frictional contact of a viscoelastic body is considered. The assumptions on the functions used in modelling the contact are broad enough to include both the normal compliance and the Tresca models. The friction law uses a friction coefficient which is a non-monotone function of the slip. The existence and uniqueness of the solution are proved in the general three-dimensional case.

Dynamic contact problems with velocity conditions

Oanh Chau, Viorica Motreanu (2002)

International Journal of Applied Mathematics and Computer Science

We consider dynamic problems which describe frictional contact between a body and a foundation. The constitutive law is viscoelastic or elastic and the frictional contact is modelled by a general subdifferential condition on the velocity, including the normal damped responses. We derive weak formulations for the models and prove existence and uniqueness results. The proofs are based on the theory of second-order evolution variational inequalities. We show that the solutions of the viscoelastic problems...

Frictionless contact problem with adhesion and finite penetration for elastic materials

Arezki Touzaline (2010)

Annales Polonici Mathematici

The paper deals with the problem of quasistatic frictionless contact between an elastic body and a foundation. The elasticity operator is assumed to vanish for zero strain, to be Lipschitz continuous and strictly monotone with respect to the strain as well as Lebesgue measurable on the domain occupied by the body. The contact is modelled by normal compliance in such a way that the penetration is limited and restricted to unilateral contraints. In this problem we take into account adhesion which...

Global existence and polynomial decay for a problem with Balakrishnan-Taylor damping

Abderrahmane Zaraï, Nasser-eddine Tatar (2010)

Archivum Mathematicum

A viscoelastic Kirchhoff equation with Balakrishnan-Taylor damping is considered. Using integral inequalities and multiplier techniques we establish polynomial decay estimates for the energy of the problem. The results obtained in this paper extend previous results by Tatar and Zaraï [25].
