This work surveys a broad range of related issues in quasistatic elastoplasticity, beginning with a development of an internal variable constitutive theory. The initial-boundary value problem is then considered, and the remainder of the work is concerned with the properties of the time-discrete problem. It is shown how this discrete problem has associated with it a holonomic constitutive law (that is, one relating stress to strain or strain increment), and this holonomic law in turn forms the basis of a solution algorithm. Conditions for the convergence of the algorithm are discussed. The entire treatment applies to the spatially continuous problem.

By specialization to the continuum problem of a general formulation of the initial/boundary value problem for every nonpotential operator (Tonti, 1984) and by virtue of a suitable choice of the “integrating operator,” a comprehensive energy formulation is established. Referring to the small strain and displacement case in the presence of any inelastic generally nonlinear constitutive law, provided that it is differentiable, this formulation allows us to derive extensions of well-known principles of elasticity (Hu-Washizu, Hellinger-Reissner, total potential energy, and complementary energy). An illustrative example is given. Peculiar properties of the formulation are the energy characterization of the functional and the use of Green functions of the same problem in the elastic range for every inelastic, generally nonlinear material considered.

SynopsisWe study the nonlinear stability of discontinuous steady states of a model initial-boundary value problem in one space dimension for incompressible, isothermal shear flow of a non-Newtonian fluid driven by a constant pressure gradient. The non-Newtonian contribution to the shear stress is assumed to satisfy a simple differential constitutive law. The key feature is a non-monotone relation between the total steady shear stress and shear strain-rate that results in steady states having, in general, discontinuities in the strain rate. We show that every solution tends to a steady state as t → ∞, and we identify steady states that are stable.

SynopsisThe interior initial-boundary value problem for the wave equation in m ≧ 1 space dimension is considered for vanishing boundary values. Certain regularity, dependent on m, is required for the solution and additionalboundary conditions, the number of which being also dependent on m, are imposed on the given right hand side. Emphazising the case m = 3, the Rothe method is applied after the problem has been rewritten as a hyperbolic first order evolution problem for m + 1 unknown functions. The sequence of discrete solutions obtained is shown to be discretely convergent to the continuous solution in the sense of uniform convergence if the solution of the continuous problem is assumed to exist. A priori estimates are derived both for the discrete solutions and the continuous solution.

Abstract In this paper we consider the first initial boundary-value problem for the heat equation with variable coefficients in a domain (0; 1)x(0; 1)x(0; T]. We assume that the solution of the problem and the coefficients of the equation belong to the corresponding anisotropic Sobolev spaces. Convergence rate estimate which is consistent with the smoothness of the data is obtained.

The paper studies a problem with initial functions and boundary conditions for partial differential partial equations of fractional order in partial derivatives with a delayed time argument, with degree Laplace operators with spatial variables and nonlocal boundary conditions in Sobolev classes. The solution of the initial boundary-value problem is constructed as the series’ sum in the eigenfunction system of the multidimensional spectral problem. The eigenvalues are found for the spectral problem and the corresponding system of eigenfunctions is constructed. It is shown that the system of eigenfunctions is complete and forms a Riesz basis in the Sobolev subspace. Based on the completeness of the eigenfunctions system the uniqueness theorem for solving the problem is proved. In the Sobolev subspaces the existence of a regular solution to the stated initial-boundary problem is proved.

Приводится анализ механических колебаний элементов ударного устройства с помощью модели стержневого типа. Ударник и инструмент связаны упругими и диссипативными элементами, которые имитируют их взаимодействие. Аналогично моделируется взаимодействие инструмента с рабочей средой. Сформулирована начально-краевая задача для системы двух волновых уравнений с учетом переменных поперечных сечений стержней. Площади поперечных сечений определяются параметрическими формулами при сохранении объемов стержней. Параметрические формулы позволяют получать различного вида зависимости площади поперечного сечения стержня от его длины. Начальные условия отражают физическую картину взаимодействия инструмента с ударником и рабочей средой. Краевые условия описывают контактные взаимодействия ударника с инструментом и последнего с рабочей средой. В качестве модельной задачи рассматривается соударение ударника и инструмента через элемент большой жесткости. Начально-краевая задача исследуется разностным методом. Проводится сравнение решений задачи, полученных с помощью двухслойной и трехслойной разностных схем. Такие схемы реализованы в общей компьютерной программе в системе Mathcad. Показано, что при вычислениях распределения нормальных напряжений по длине стержня лучшими свойствами относительно устойчивости обладает двухслойная схема The article gives the analysis of mechanical vibrations of the impact device elements using the model of the rod type. The hammer and the tool are connected by elastic and dissipative elements that simulate their interaction. The interaction of the tool with the processing medium is simulated in a similar way. An initial boundary-value problem is formulated for a system of two wave equations taking into account the variable cross sections of the rods. Cross-sectional areas are determined by parametric formulas maintaining the volume of the rods. Parametric formulas allow one to obtain various dependence types of the cross-sectional area of the rod on its length. The initial and boundary conditions reflect the physical phenomenon of the tool interaction with the processing medium, and also describe the contact interactions of the hammer with the tool. The impacting of the hammer and the tool through an element of high rigidity is considered as a model problem. To control the limiting values, the solution of the model problem by the Fourier method is used. The initial-boundary-value problem is investigated by the difference method. A comparison of solutions obtained for the two-layer and three-layer difference schemes is given. Such schemes are realized in a common computer program in the Mathcad. It is shown that the two-layer scheme has the best properties in relation to stability while calculating the distribution of normal voltage along the length of the rod

Abstract The distribution of natural frequencies of the Euler–Bernoulli beam subject to fully non-dissipative boundary conditions is investigated. The beam is clamped at the left end and equipped with a 4-parameter ($\alpha ,\beta ,k_1,k_2$) linear boundary feedback law at the right end. The $2 \times 2$ boundary feedback matrix relates the control input (a vector of velocity and its spatial derivative at the right end), to the output (a vector of shear and moment at the right end). The initial boundary value problem describing the dynamics of the beam has been reduced to the first order in time evolution equation in the state Hilbert space equipped with the energy norm. The dynamics generator has a purely discrete spectrum (the vibrational modes) denoted by $\{\nu _n\}_{n\in \mathbb {Z}^{\prime}}$. The role of the control parameters is examined and the following results have been proven: (i) when $\beta \neq 0$, the set of vibrational modes is asymptotically close to the vertical line on the complex $\nu$-plane given by the equation $\Re \nu = \alpha + (1-k_1k_2)/\beta$; (ii) when $\beta = 0$ and the parameter $K = (1-k_1 k_2)/(k_1+k_2)$ is such that $\left |K\right |\neq 1$ then the following relations are valid: $\Re (\nu _n/n) = O\left (1\right )$ and $\Im (\nu _n/n^2) = O\left (1\right )$ as $\left |n\right |\to \infty$; (iii) when $\beta =0$, $|K| = 1$, and $\alpha = 0$, then the following relations are valid: $\Re (\nu _n/n^2) = O\left (1\right )$ and $\Im (\nu _n/n) = O\left (1\right )$ as $\left |n\right |\to \infty$; (iv) when $\beta =0$, $|K| = 1$, and $\alpha>0$, then the following relations are valid: $\Re (\nu _n/\ln \left |n\right |) = O\left (1\right )$ and $\Im (\nu _n/n^2) = O\left (1\right )$ as $\left |n\right |\to \infty$.

Abstract The purpose of this proposed investigation is to study unsteady magneto hydrodynamic (MHD) mixed initial-boundary value problem for incompressible fractional Maxwell fluid model via oscillatory porous rectangular duct. Considering the modified Darcy’s law, the problem is simplified by using the method of the double finite Fourier sine and Laplace transforms. As a limiting case of the general solutions, the same results can be obtained for the classical Maxwell fluid. Also, the impact of magnetic parameter, porosity of medium, and the impact of various material parameters on the velocity profile and the corresponding tangential tensions are illuminated graphically. At the end, we will give the conclusion of the whole paper.
