A sixth-order finite volume method for the 1D biharmonic operator: Application to intramedullary nail simulation

Ricardo Costa, Gaspar J. Machado, Stéphane Clain (2015)

International Journal of Applied Mathematics and Computer Science

A new very high-order finite volume method to solve problems with harmonic and biharmonic operators for onedimensional geometries is proposed. The main ingredient is polynomial reconstruction based on local interpolations of mean values providing accurate approximations of the solution up to the sixth-order accuracy. First developed with the harmonic operator, an extension for the biharmonic operator is obtained, which allows designing a very high-order finite volume scheme where the solution is...

A unilateral boundary-value problem for the rod

Miroslav Bosák (1988)

Aplikace matematiky

A unilateral boundary-value condition at the left end of a simply supported rod is considered. Variational and (equivalent) classical formulations are introduced and all solutions to the classical problem are calculated in an explicit form. Formulas for the energies corresponding to the solutions are also given. The problem is solved and energies of the solutions are compared in the pertubed as well as the unperturbed cases.

An elementary theory of the oblique impact of rods

Robin J. Knops, Piero Villaggio (2001)

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

An extension is proposed of a classical approximate method for estimating the stress state in an elastic rod obliquely colliding against a rigid wall.

Analysis of optimality conditions for some topology optimization problems in elasticity

Luis Trabucho (2002)

International Journal of Applied Mathematics and Computer Science

The subject of topology optimization has undergone an enormous practical development since the appearance of the paper by Bendso e and Kikuchi (1988), where some ideas from homogenization theory were put into practice. Since then, several engineering applications as well as different approaches have been developed successfully. However, it is difficult to find in the literature some analytical examples that might be used as a test in order to assess the validity of the solutions obtained with different...

Approximation of the arch problem by residual-free bubbles

A. Agouzal, M. El Alami El Ferricha (2001)

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

We consider a general loaded arch problem with a small thickness. To approximate the solution of this problem, a conforming mixed finite element method which takes into account an approximation of the middle line of the arch is given. But for a very small thickness such a method gives poor error bounds. the conforming Galerkin method is then enriched with residual-free bubble functions.

Boundary controllability of the finite-difference space semi-discretizations of the beam equation

Liliana León, Enrique Zuazua (2002)

ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations

We propose a finite difference semi-discrete scheme for the approximation of the boundary exact controllability problem of the 1-D beam equation modelling the transversal vibrations of a beam with fixed ends. First of all we show that, due to the high frequency spurious oscillations, the uniform (with respect to the mesh-size) controllability property of the semi-discrete model fails in the natural functional setting. We then prove that there are two ways of restoring the uniform controllability...

Boundary feedback stabilization of a three-layer sandwich beam : Riesz basis approach

Jun-Min Wang, Bao-Zhu Guo, Boumediène Chentouf (2006)

ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations

In this paper, we consider the boundary stabilization of a sandwich beam which consists of two outer stiff layers and a compliant middle layer. Using Riesz basis approach, we show that there is a sequence of generalized eigenfunctions, which forms a Riesz basis in the state space. As a consequence, the spectrum-determined growth condition as well as the exponential stability of the closed-loop system are concluded. Finally, the well-posedness and regularity in the sense of Salamon-Weiss class as...
