IMPROVEMENT OF EXPLICIT ALGORITHMS STABILITY WITH VISCO-ELASTIC ARTIFICIAL BOUNDARY ELEMENTS 1)

黏弹性人工边界单元是目前常用的处理半无限空间波动问题的数值模拟方法,可有效吸收计算区域内产生的外行波动.黏弹性人工边界单元具有与内部介质不同的质量密度、刚度和阻尼,受其影响,对整体模型进行显式时域逐步积分时,在边界区域易发生失稳现象,影响整体系统显式积分的计算效率. 针对该问题目前尚无行之有效的解决方法.本文针对二维黏弹性人工边界单元,建立可代表整体系统典型特征的侧边子系统和角点子系统,利用传递矩阵谱半径分析方法,基于传统中心差分格式,推导得到局部子系统稳定性条件的解析解.在此基础上通过研究解析解中各物理参数对稳定性条件的影响,给出通过增加人工边界单元的质量密度,以改善采用黏弹性人工边界单元时显式算法稳定性的方法.均匀和成层半空间波动问题算例分析表明,将内部单元质量密度设置为人工边界单元质量密度的上限,可以在保证黏弹性人工边界计算精度的前提下,有效改善整体系统显式时域逐步积分的数值稳定性,大幅提高计算效率.     

黏弹性人工边界等效荷载计算的改进方法

黏弹性人工边界在场地地震反应和结构-地基动力相互作用等问题的计算中已得到了广泛的应用.地震波在黏弹性人工边界中的输入是通过将地震波转化为作用于人工边界处的等效载荷来实现的.计算等效节点载荷的常规方法默认边界节点对应区域内的应力为均布力,但实际上该节点对应区域内的应力分布通常是不均匀的.本文在有限元方法结合黏弹性局部人工边界的显式时域波动方法的基础上,建立了无限域散射问题地震波等效载荷计算的一种改进方法.该方法采用细化网格与应力积分相结合的方法计算人工边界等效节点力,有效地降低了人工边界上等效节点力的计算误差.以不同角度入射地震波的二维算例为例,算例给出的波场位移云图和节点位移时程曲线验证了本文方法的有效性,其计算精度与网格尺寸和地震波入射角度密切相关,且网格越小、入射角度越小,计算精度越高.对于相同的网格尺寸,本文采用方法的计算精度明显高于常规方法,尤其是对于斜入射问题优势更为明显.

Galerkin domain decomposition procedures for parabolic equations on rectangular domain

Galerkin domain decomposition procedures for parabolic equations with three cases of boundary conditions on rectangular domain are discussed. These procedures are non‐iterative and non‐overlapping ones. They rely on implicit Galerkin method in the sub‐domains and integral mean method on the inter‐domain boundaries to present explicit flux calculation. Thus, the parallelism can be achieved by the use of these procedures. Two kinds of approximating schemes are presented. Because of the explicit nature of the flux calculation, a less severe time‐step constraint is derived to preserve stability. To bound L²‐norm error estimates, new elliptic projections are established and analyzed. Numerical experiments are provided to confirm theoretical results.

Resolution of linear viscoelastic equations in the frequency domain using real Helmholtz boundary integral equations

Boundary integral equations are well suitable for the analysis of seismic waves propagation in unbounded domains. Formulations in elastodynamics are well developed. In contrast, for the dynamic analysis of viscoelastic media, there are very seldom formulations by boundary integral equations. In this Note, we propose a new and simple formulation of time harmonic viscoelasticity with the Zener model, which reduces to classical elastodynamics if a compatibility condition is satisfied by boundary conditions. Intermediate variables which satisfy the classical elastodynamic equations are introduced. It makes it possible to utilize existing numerical tools of time harmonic elastodynamics.

Dynamic parallel Galerkin domain decomposition procedures with grid modification for parabolic equation

Dynamic parallel Galerkin domain decomposition procedures with grid modification for semi‐linear parabolic equation are given. These procedures allow one to apply different domain decompositions, different grids, and interpolation polynomials on the sub‐domains at different time levels when necessary, in order to capture time‐changing localized phenomena, such as, propagating fronts or moving layers. They rely on an implicit Galerkin method in the sub‐domains and simple explicit flux calculation on the inter‐domain boundaries by integral mean method to predict the inner‐boundary conditions. Thus, the parallelism can be achieved by these procedures. These procedures are conservative both in the sub‐domains and across inter‐boundaries. The explicit nature of the flux prediction induces a time step limitation that is necessary to preserve stability, but this constraint is less severe than that for a fully explicit method. Stability and convergence analysis in L²‐norm are derived for these procedures. The experimental results are presented to confirm the theoretical results.

Dynamic 3D axisymmetric problems in continuously non-homogeneous piezoelectric solids

The meshless local Petrov-Galerkin (MLPG) method is used to analyze transient dynamic problems in 3D axisymmetric piezoelectric solids with continuously inhomogeneous material properties. Both mechanical and thermal loads are considered here. A 3D axisymmetric body is created by rotation of a cross section around an axis of symmetry. Axial symmetry of geometry and boundary conditions reduces the original 3D boundary value problem into a 2D problem. The cross section is covered by small circular sub-domains surrounding nodes randomly spread over the analyzed domain. A unit step function is chosen as test function, in order to derive local integral equations on the boundaries of the chosen sub-domains, called local boundary integral equations (LBIE). These integral formulations are either based on the Laplace transform technique or the time-difference approach. The local integral equations are non-singular and take a very simple form, despite of inhomogeneous and anisotropic material behaviour across the analyzed structure. Spatial variation of all physical fields (or of their Laplace transforms) at discrete time instants are approximated on the local boundary and in the interior of the sub-domain by means of the moving least-squares (MLS) method. The Stehfest algorithm is applied for the numerical Laplace inversion, in order to retrieve the time-dependent solutions.     

A method for the analysis of dynamic response of structure containing non-smooth contactable interfaces

A novel single-step method is proposed for the analysis of dynamic response of visco-elastic structures containing non-smooth contactable interfaces. In the method, a two-level algorithm is employed for dealing with a nonlinear boundary condition caused by the dynamic contact of interfaces. At the first level, and explicit method is adopted to calculate nodal displacements of global viscoelastic system without considering the effect of dynamic contact of interfaces and at the second level, by introducing contact conditions of interfaces, a group of equations of lower order is derived to calculate dynamic contact normal and shear forces on the interfaces. The method is convenient and efficient for the analysis of problems of dynamic contact. The accuracy of the method is of the second order and the numerical stability condition is wider than that of other explicit methods.

Dynamic stability of axially accelerating viscoelastic plates with longitudinally varying tensions

The dynamic stability of axially accelerating plates is investigated. Longitudinally varying tensions due to the acceleration and nonhomogeneous boundary conditions are highlighted. A model of the plate combined with viscoelasticity is applied. In the viscoelastic constitutive relationship, the material derivative is used to take the place of the partial time derivative. Analytical and numerical methods are used to investigate summation and principal parametric resonances, respectively. By use of linear models for the transverse behavior in the small displacement regime, the plate is confined by a viscous damping force. The generalized Hamilton principle is used to derive the governing equations, the initial conditions, and the boundary conditions of the coupled planar vibration. The solvability conditions are established by directly using the method of multiple scales. The Routh-Hurwitz criterion is used to obtain the necessary and sufficient condition of the stability. Numerical examples are given to show the effects of related parameters on the stability boundaries. The validity of longitudinally varying tensions and nonhomogeneous boundary conditions is highlighted by comparing the results of the method of multiple scales with those of a differential quadrature scheme.
