Upper and lower bounds are found for limit loads on nonsymmetrically loaded spherical shells. The influence of geometrical and load parameters are discussed. The analytical results are compared with the results of tests on four steel models.

This paper deals with the problem of the plastic deformation of a beam under the action of three perfectly rough rigid dies, two dies applied to one side, one die to the other side of the beam, the single die being situated between the two others. It is treated as a problem of plane plastic flow. Discontinuous stress and velocity fields are assumed and upper and lower bounds for the pressure sufficient to cause pronounced plastic yielding determined by limit analysis.

Bloch amplitudes and energy density for traveling and standing waves in an apodized grating at frequencies just outside the band gap are investigated. On the basis of exact coupled mode equations for the local Bloch amplitudes, based on the transfer matrix of the grating units, the concept of local reflectance is developed. This concept appears to be particularly useful to find upper and lower bounds on amplitudes and energy density. Analytical results are tested numerically for a polynomial apodization profile.

The determination of upper and lower bounds on the yield-point loads of plates are formulated as mathematical programming problems by using finite element representations for the velocity and moment fields. Results are presented for a variety of square and rectangular plate problems and are compared to other available solutions.

Abstract The yield surface for a thin cylindrical shell is shown to be a very good approximation to the yield surface for any symmetrically loaded thin shell of revolution. Hexagonal prism approximations to this yield surface, appropriate for pressure vessel analysis, are described and discussed in terms of limit analysis. Procedures suitable for finding upper and lower bounds on the limit pressure for the complete vessel are developed and evaluated. They are applied for illustration to a portion of a toroidal zone or knuckle held rigidly at the two bounding planes. The combined end force and moment which can be carried by an unflanged cylinder also is discussed.

Sufficient conditions for oscillatority in the sense of Yakubovich for a class of time delay nonlinear systems are proposed. Under proposed conditions, upper and lower bounds for oscillation amplitude are given. Examples illustrating analytical results by computer simulation are presented.

The generalized distance matrix D α ( G ) of a connected graph G is defined as D α ( G ) = α T r ( G ) + ( 1 − α ) D ( G ) , where 0 ≤ α ≤ 1 , D ( G ) is the distance matrix and T r ( G ) is the diagonal matrix of the node transmissions. In this paper, we extend the concept of energy to the generalized distance matrix and define the generalized distance energy E D α ( G ) . Some new upper and lower bounds for the generalized distance energy E D α ( G ) of G are established based on parameters including the Wiener index W ( G ) and the transmission degrees. Extremal graphs attaining these bounds are identified. It is found that the complete graph has the minimum generalized distance energy among all connected graphs, while the minimum is attained by the star graph among trees of order n.

Abstract The main aim of this paper is to establish some Fejér-type inequalities involving hypergeometric functions in terms of GA-s-convexity. For this purpose, we construct a Hadamard k-fractional identity related to geometrically symmetric mappings. Moreover, we give the upper and lower bounds for the weighted inequalities via products of two different mappings. Some applications of the presented results to special means are also provided.
