Presented in this work is a method of construction of approximate functions in connection with the energy formulation of certain eigenvalue problems of web-stiffened sandwich structures. The construction is based upon the method of Young together with a group of fundamental functions deduced from Timoshenko’s flexural equations for elastic beams. The analysis is exemplified and numerically tested by the eigenvalue problems of free vibrations and buckling of one-dimensional sandwich structures. Results indicate that the present method possesses advantages over similar constructions oriented from the classical flexural normal modes of Bernoulli-Euler.

Normal-mode expansions for Green's functions are derived for ocean–bottom systems. The bottom is modeled by Kirchhoff and Reissner–Mindlin plate theories for elastic and poroelastic materials. The resulting eigenvalue problems for the modal parameters are investigated. Normal modes are calculated by Hankel transformation of the underlying equations. Finally, the relation to the inverse problem is outlined.

In this paper, we study the unilateral global bifurcation from infinity in nonlinearizable eigenvalue problems for the one-dimensional Dirac equation. We show the existence of two families of unbounded continua of the set of nontrivial solutions emanating from asymptotically bifurcation intervals and having the usual nodal properties near these intervals.

The necessity of new approaches to the modeling of rods in the analysis of high-rise constructions is justified. The possibility of the application of the three-dimensional superelements of rods with rectangular cross section for the static and dynamic calculation of the bar and combined structures is considered. The results of the eighteen-story spatial frame free vibrations analysis using both one-dimensional and three-dimensional models of rods are presented. A comparative analysis of the obtained results is carried out and the conclusions on the possibility of three-dimensional superelements application in static and dynamic analysis of high-rise constructions are given on its basis.

In this work, the nonlinear coupled dynamics of a sandwich structure with hexagonal honeycomb core are characterized in terms of Proper Orthogonal Decomposition modes. A high fidelity nonlinear finite element model is derived to describe geometric nonlinearity and displacement and rotation fields that govern the coupled dynamics. Contrary to equivalent continuum models used to predict vibration properties of lattice and sandwich structures, a high fidelity finite element model allows for a quite detailed description of the distributed complicated geometric nonlinearity of the core. It was found that the free dynamics excited by a blast load and the forced dynamics excited by a harmonic force posses POD modes which are localized in space and time. The processing of the simulated dynamics by the Time Discrete Proper Transform forms a means to study the nonlinear coupled dynamics of sandwich structures in the context of nonlinear normal modes of vibration and reduced order models.

In this paper, an efficient multiscale finite element method via local defect-correction technique is developed. This method is used to solve the Schrödinger eigenvalue problem with three-dimensional domain. First, this paper considers a three-dimensional bounded spherical region, which is the truncation of a three-dimensional unbounded region. Using polar coordinate transformation, we successfully transform the three-dimensional problem into a series of one-dimensional eigenvalue problems. These one-dimensional eigenvalue problems also bring singularity. Second, using local refinement technique, we establish a new multiscale finite element discretization method. The scheme can correct the defects repeatedly on the local refinement grid, which can solve the singularity problem efficiently. Finally, the error estimates of eigenvalues and eigenfunctions are also proved. Numerical examples show that our numerical method can significantly improve the accuracy of eigenvalues.

The thermal conductivity of a one-dimensional chain of rotators with a double-barrier interaction potential of nearest neighbors has been studied numerically. We show that the height of the "internal" barrier, which separates topologically nonequivalent degenerate states, significantly affects the temperature dependence of the heat conductivity of the system. The small height of this barrier leads to the dominant contribution of the non-linear normal modes at low temperatures. In such a case the coefficient of thermal conductivity turns out to be the risen function of the temperature. The growth of the coefficient is limited by local fluctuations corresponding to jumps over the barriers. At higher values of the internal barrier height, dependence of the heat conductivity on temperature is similar to that of classical rotators.

Abstract Numerical method for thermal and fluid flow with free surface and phase change has been developed. The calculation result of one-dimensional solidification problem agrees with Neumann’s theoretical value. We applied it to a bubble growth in superheated liquid and obtained the result that a bubble grows with spherical shape. The present method can be applicable to various phase change problems.
