Exponential Time Integration

We apply an exponential time integration scheme combined with a central difference scheme on a piecewise uniform mesh with respect to the spatial variable to evaluate a generalized Black-Scholes equation. We show that the scheme is second-order convergent for both time and spatial variables. It is proved that the scheme is unconditionally stable. Numerical results support the theoretical results.

Time Integration Scheme

This paper presents the development of a semi-implicit time integration scheme, originally developed for structural dynamics in the 1970’s, and its implementation for use in Discrete Element Methods (DEM) for rigid particle interaction, and interaction of elastic bodies that are modeled as a cluster of rigid interconnected particles. The method is developed in view of ballast modeling that accounts for the flexibility of aggregates and the arbitrary shape and size of granules. The proposed scheme does not require any matrix inversions and is expressed in an incremental form making it appropriate for non-linear problems. The proposed method focuses on improving the efficiency, stability and accuracy of the solutions, as compared to current practice. A critical discussion of the findings of the studies is presented. Extended verification and assessment studies demonstrate that the proposed algorithm is unconditionally stable and accurate even for large time step sizes. It is demonstrated that the proposed method is at least as computationally efficient as the Central Difference Method. Guidelines for the implementation of the method to ballast modeling are discussed.

The Time Domain

We introduce an approach blending the Perfectly Matched Layer (PML) and infinite element paradigms, to achieve better performance and wider applicability than either approach alone. In this paper, we address the specific challenges of unbounded problems when using time-domain explicit finite elements: 1. The algorithm must be spatially local, to minimize storage and communication cost, 2. It must contain second-order time derivatives for compatibility with the explicit central-difference time integration scheme, 3. Its coefficient for the second-order derivatives must be diagonal (“lumped mass”), 4. It must be time-stable when used with central-differences, 5. It must converge to the correct low-frequency (Laplacian) limit, 6. It should exhibit high accuracy across typically encountered dynamic frequencies, i.e. at short to long wavelengths, 7. Its user interface should be as simple as possible. Here, we will describe the derivation of a time-domain implementation of the hybrid PML/infinite element, and discuss its advantages for implementation.

Response sensitivity evaluation is an important element in reliability evaluation and design optimization of structural systems. It has been widely studied under static and dynamic forcing conditions with deterministic input data. In this paper, structural response and reliability sensitivities are determined by means of the time domain covariance analysis in both classically and nonclassically damped linear structural systems. A time integration scheme is proposed for covariance sensitivity. A modulated, filtered, white noise input process is adopted to model the stochastic nonstationary loads. The method allows for the evaluation of sensitivity statistics of different quantities of dynamic response with respect to structural parameters. Finally, numerical examples are presented regarding a multistorey shear frame building.
