Book An Analysis of the P Version of the Finite Element Method for Nearly Incompressible Materials  Uniformly Valid  Optimal Error Estimates

Download or read book An Analysis of the P Version of the Finite Element Method for Nearly Incompressible Materials Uniformly Valid Optimal Error Estimates written by Michael Vogelius and published by . This book was released on 1982 with total page 2 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this paper we analyze the behavior of the so-called p-version of the finite element method when applied to the equations of plane strain linear elasticity. We establish optimal rate error estimates that are uniformly valid, independent of the value of the Poisson ratio, nu, in the interval 0, 1/2. This shows that the p-version does not exhibit the degeneracy phenomenon which has led to the use of various, only partially justified techniques of reduced integration or mixed formulations for more standard finite element schemes and the case of a nearly incompressible material.

Book Finite Element Analysis of Elastomers

Download or read book Finite Element Analysis of Elastomers written by David Boast and published by . This book was released on 1999 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Written by leading researchers and practitioners, Finite Element Analysis of Elastomers blends established knowledge in this important area with up-to-date research topics, practical hints and thought-provoking new ideas. The Editors, have compiled contributions by leading researchers and practitioners in finite element analysis (FEA): the result is an authoritative and agenda-setting volume. Finite element modelling can only be as good as the constitutive laws (material models) used, the means of obtaining and fitting the data for those models, and the accuracy of the boundary conditions. (The latter is of particular importance in cases of contact.) All three questions recieve particular attention in this book, as do aspects such as the interpretation and accuracy of FE outputs, with many practical examples being given. There is a short section on fatigue and failure, where particular concerns and approaches in this challenging area are discussed. Comprehensive coverage is given to particular issues concerning the problems of working with real elastomers, especially filled materials. Key features include: Constitutive laws for hyperelastic and inelastic aspects of behaviour Appropriate test methods Curve fitting to obtain constants for constitutive laws Interpretation of finite element results Modelling of crack growth Example applications.

Book Numerical Methods for Mixed Finite Element Problems

Download or read book Numerical Methods for Mixed Finite Element Problems written by Jean Deteix and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2022-09-24 with total page 119 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book focuses on iterative solvers and preconditioners for mixed finite element methods. It provides an overview of some of the state-of-the-art solvers for discrete systems with constraints such as those which arise from mixed formulations. Starting by recalling the basic theory of mixed finite element methods, the book goes on to discuss the augmented Lagrangian method and gives a summary of the standard iterative methods, describing their usage for mixed methods. Here, preconditioners are built from an approximate factorisation of the mixed system. A first set of applications is considered for incompressible elasticity problems and flow problems, including non-linear models. An account of the mixed formulation for Dirichlet’s boundary conditions is then given before turning to contact problems, where contact between incompressible bodies leads to problems with two constraints. This book is aimed at graduate students and researchers in the field of numerical methods and scientific computing.

Book Introduction to Nonlinear Finite Element Analysis

Download or read book Introduction to Nonlinear Finite Element Analysis written by Nam-Ho Kim and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2014-11-21 with total page 444 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book introduces the key concepts of nonlinear finite element analysis procedures. The book explains the fundamental theories of the field and provides instructions on how to apply the concepts to solving practical engineering problems. Instead of covering many nonlinear problems, the book focuses on three representative problems: nonlinear elasticity, elastoplasticity, and contact problems. The book is written independent of any particular software, but tutorials and examples using four commercial programs are included as appendices: ANSYS, NASTRAN, ABAQUS, and MATLAB. In particular, the MATLAB program includes all source codes so that students can develop their own material models, or different algorithms.

Book Nonlinear Continuum Mechanics for Finite Element Analysis

Download or read book Nonlinear Continuum Mechanics for Finite Element Analysis written by Javier Bonet and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2008-03-13 with total page 349 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Designing engineering components that make optimal use of materials requires consideration of the nonlinear characteristics associated with both manufacturing and working environments. The modeling of these characteristics can only be done through numerical formulation and simulation, and this requires an understanding of both the theoretical background and associated computer solution techniques. By presenting both nonlinear continuum analysis and associated finite element techniques under one roof, Bonet and Wood provide, in this edition of this successful text, a complete, clear, and unified treatment of these important subjects. New chapters dealing with hyperelastic plastic behavior are included, and the authors have thoroughly updated the FLagSHyP program, freely accessible at www.flagshyp.com. Worked examples and exercises complete each chapter, making the text an essential resource for postgraduates studying nonlinear continuum mechanics. It is also ideal for those in industry requiring an appreciation of the way in which their computer simulation programs work.

This symposium relates considerable numerical analysis involved in research in both theoretical and practical aspects of the finite element method. This text is organized into three parts encompassing 34 chapters. Part I focuses on the mathematical foundations of the finite element method, including papers on theory of approximation, variational principles, the problems of perturbations, and the eigenvalue problem. Part II covers a large number of important results of both a theoretical and a practical nature. This part discusses the piecewise analytic interpolation and approximation of triangulated polygons; the Patch test for convergence of finite elements; solutions for Dirichlet problems; variational crimes in the field; and superconvergence result for the approximate solution of the heat equation by a collocation method. Part III explores the many practical aspects of finite element method. This book will be of great value to mathematicians, engineers, and physicists.
