A differentiation matrix method based on barycentric Lagrange interpolation for numerical analysis of bending problem for elliptical plate is presented. Embedded the elliptical domain into a rectangular, the barycentric Lagrange interpolation in tensor form is used to approximate unknown function. The governing equation of bending plate is discretized by the differentiation matrix derived from barycentric Lagrange interpolation to form a system of algebraic equations. The boundary conditions on curved boundary are directly discretized using barycentric Lagrange interpolation. Combining discrete algebraic equations of governing equation and boundary conditions to form an over-constraints system of equations, the numerical solutions on rectangular can be obtained by solving it. Then, the numerical solutions on elliptical domain are obtained by interpolating the data on rectangular. Numerical results of elliptical plate with uniform load illustrate the effectiveness and accuracy of the proposed method.

This paper applies a numerical method of polynomial function approximation to the numerical analysis of variable fractional order viscoelastic rotating beam. First, the governing equation of the viscoelastic rotating beam is established based on the variable fractional model of the viscoelastic material. Second, shifted Bernstein polynomials and Legendre polynomials are used as basis functions to approximate the governing equation and the original equation is converted to matrix product form. Based on the configuration method, the matrix equation is further transformed into algebraic equations and numerical solutions of the governing equation are obtained directly in the time domain. Finally, the efficiency of the proposed algorithm is proved by analyzing the numerical solutions of the displacement of rotating beam under different loads.

A numerical approach is proposed for solving multidimensional parabolic diffusion and hyperbolic wave equations subject to the appropriate initial and boundary conditions. The considered numerical solutions of the these equations are considered as linear combinations of the shifted Bernoulli polynomials with unknown coefficients. By collocating the main equations together with the initial and boundary conditions at some special points (i.e., CGL collocation points), equations will be transformed into the associated systems of linear algebraic equations which can be solved by robust Krylov subspace iterative methods such as GMRES. Operational matrices of differentiation are implemented for speeding up the operations. In both of the one-dimensional and two-dimensional diffusion and wave equations, the geometrical distributions of the collocation points are depicted for clarity of presentation. Several numerical examples are provided to show the efficiency and spectral (exponential) accuracy of the proposed method.

A new Legendre rational pseudospectral scheme is proposed and developed for solving numerically systems of linear and nonlinear multipantograph equations on a semi-infinite interval. A Legendre rational collocation method based on Legendre rational-Gauss quadrature points is utilized to reduce the solution of such systems to systems of linear and nonlinear algebraic equations. In addition, accurate approximations are achieved by selecting few Legendre rational-Gauss collocation points. The numerical results obtained by this method have been compared with various exact solutions in order to demonstrate the accuracy and efficiency of the proposed method. Indeed, for relatively limited nodes used, the absolute error in our numerical solutions is sufficiently small.

The nonlinear, steady-state response of a displacement-forced link coupling with clearance with finite stiffness is determined. The solution procedure is derived from satisfying the boundary conditions at the contact points and then solving the resulting nonlinear algebraic equations by setting the duration of contact as a parameter. This direct approach to determining periodic solutions for systems with clearances with finite stiffness is substantially more efficient than numerical integration schemes. Results in terms of contact forces and durations of contact are pertinent to fatigue and wear studies. Parametric relations are presented for effects of the variation of damping, stiffness, exciting displacement, and gap length on the dynamic behavior of the link pair.

Abstract In this paper a general method for the analysis of multidimensional second-order dynamic systems with periodically varying parameters is presented. The state vector and the periodic matrices appearing in the equations are expanded in Chebyshev polynomials over the principal period and the original differential problem is reduced to a set of linear algebraic equations. The technique is suitable for constructing either numerical or approximate analytical solutions. As an illustrative example, approximate analytical expressions for the Floquet characteristic exponents of Mathieu’s equation are obtained. Stability charts are drawn to compare the results the proposed method with those obtained by Runge-Kutta and perturbation methods. Numerical solutions for the flap-lag motion of a three blade helicopter rotor are constructed in the next example. The numerical accuracy and efficiency of the proposed technique is compared with standard numerical codes based on Runge-Kutta, Adams-Moulton and Gear algorithms. The results obtained in the both examples indicate that the suggested approach extremely accurate and is by far the most efficient one.

Abstract The wave-mode representation is utilized to obtain a more efficient form to the conventional transfer matrix method for bending vibrations of beams. The proposed improvement is based on a phase-variable canonical state representation of the equation governing the time-harmonic flexural vibrations of a beam. Transfer matrices are obtained for external forces, step-change of beam properties, intermediate supports and for boundaries. The transfer matrices are utilized to obtain the vibration response of a point-excited single-span beam with general boundary conditions. The general characteristic equation and the transfer mobility of a single-span beam are determined. The application of the analytical results are demonstrated on physical structures with different boundary conditions. A hybrid model is developed to incorporate measured impedance of nonideal boundaries into the transfer matrix method. The analytical results are found to be in excellent agreement with experimental measurements.

In this paper, we consider numerical solutions for a general form of fractional delay differential equations (FDDEs) with fractional derivatives defined in the Caputo sense. A fractional integration operational matrix, created using a fractional Taylor basis, is applied to solve these FDDEs. The main characteristic of this approach is, by utilizing the operational matrix of fractional integration, to reduce the given differential equation to a set of algebraic equations with unknown coefficients. This equation system can be solved efficiently using a computer algorithm. A bound on the error for the best approximation and fractional integration are also given. Several examples are given to illustrate the validity and applicability of the technique. The efficiency of the presented method is revealed by comparing results with some existing solutions, the findings of some other approaches from the literature and by plotting absolute error figures.

AbstractWe discuss the self-consistent time-dependent numerical boundary conditions on the basis of theory of characteristics for magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) simulations of solar plasma flows. The importance of using self-consistent boundary conditions is demonstrated by using an example of modeling coronal dynamic structures. This example demonstrates that the self-consistent boundary conditions assure the correctness of the numerical solutions. Otherwise, erroneous numerical solutions will appear.
