FER/SubDomain : an integrated environment for finite element analysis using object-oriented approach

Zhi-Qiang Feng, Jean-Michel Cros (2002)

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

Development of user-friendly and flexible scientific programs is a key to their usage, extension and maintenance. This paper presents an OOP (Object-Oriented Programming) approach for design of finite element analysis programs. General organization of the developed software system, called FER/SubDomain, is given which includes the solver and the pre/post processors with a friendly GUI (Graphical User Interfaces). A case study with graphical representations illustrates some functionalities of the...

FETI-DP domain decomposition methods for elasticity with structural changes: P-elasticity

Axel Klawonn, Patrizio Neff, Oliver Rheinbach, Stefanie Vanis (2011)

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

We consider linear elliptic systems which arise in coupled elastic continuum mechanical models. In these systems, the strain tensor εP := sym (P-1∇u) is redefined to include a matrix valued inhomogeneity P(x) which cannot be described by a space dependent fourth order elasticity tensor. Such systems arise naturally in geometrically exact plasticity or in problems with eigenstresses. The tensor field P induces a structural change of the elasticity equations. For such a model the FETI-DP method is...

Finite element analysis of a static contact problem with Coulomb friction

Ivan Hlaváček (2000)

Applications of Mathematics

A unilateral contact problem with a variable coefficient of friction is solved by a simplest variant of the finite element technique. The coefficient of friction may depend on the magnitude of the tangential displacement. The existence of an approximate solution and some a priori estimates are proved.

Finite element analysis of free material optimization problem

Jan Mach (2004)

Applications of Mathematics

Free material optimization solves an important problem of structural engineering, i.e. to find the stiffest structure for given loads and boundary conditions. Its mathematical formulation leads to a saddle-point problem. It can be solved numerically by the finite element method. The convergence of the finite element method can be proved if the spaces involved satisfy suitable approximation assumptions. An example of a finite-element discretization is included.

Finite element analysis of sloshing and hydroelastic vibrations under gravity

Alfredo Bermúdez, Rodolfo Rodríguez (2010)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis

This paper deals with a finite element method to solve fluid-structure interaction problems. More precisely it concerns the numerical computation of harmonic hydroelastic vibrations under gravity. It is based on a displacement formulation for both the fluid and the solid. Gravity effects are included on the free surface of the fluid as well as on the liquid-solid interface. The pressure of the fluid is used as a variable for the theoretical analysis leading to a well posed mixed linear eigenvalue...

Finite element analysis of the Signorini problem in semi-coercive cases

Ivan Hlaváček, Ján Lovíšek (1980)

Aplikace matematiky

The plane Signorini problem is considered in the cases, when there exist non-trivial rigid admissible displacements. The existence and uniqueness of the solution and the convergence of piecewise linear finite element approximations is discussed.

Finite elements methods for solving viscoelastic thin plates

Helena Růžičková, Alexander Ženíšek (1984)

Aplikace matematiky

The present paper deals with numerical solution of a viscoelastic plate. The discrete problem is defined by C 1 -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.

Functional a posteriori error estimates for incremental models in elasto-plasticity

Sergey Repin, Jan Valdman (2009)

Open Mathematics

We consider incremental problem arising in elasto-plastic models with isotropic hardening. Our goal is to derive computable and guaranteed bounds of the difference between the exact solution and any function in the admissible (energy) class of the problem considered. Such estimates are obtained by an advanced version of the variational approach earlier used for linear boundary-value problems and nonlinear variational problems with convex functionals [24, 30]. They do no contain mesh-dependent constants...
