Unique Maximizer

International audience We prove that among all flag 3-manifolds on n vertices, the join of two circles with [n 2] and [n 2] vertices respectively is the unique maximizer of the face numbers. This solves the first case of a conjecture due to Lutz and Nevo. Further, we establish a sharp upper bound on the number of edges of flag 5-manifolds and characterize the cases of equality. We also show that the inequality part of the flag upper bound conjecture continues to hold for all flag 3-dimensional Eulerian complexes and characterize the cases of equality in this class.

Bound Theorem

International audience this is an extended abstract of the full version. We study n-vertex d-dimensional polytopes with at most one nonsimplex facet with, say, d + s vertices, called almost simplicial polytopes. We provide tight lower and upper bounds for the face numbers of these polytopes as functions of d, n and s, thus generalizing the classical Lower Bound Theorem by Barnette and Upper Bound Theorem by McMullen, which treat the case s = 0. We characterize the minimizers and provide examples of maximizers, for any d.

Selection Of

It has been established, in previous studies, the best adaptation and solution for the implementation of the modular model, being the current choice based on the minimization of the p/2k dimensionless relation obtained for each one of the model, analyzed under the same boundary conditions and efforts. Among the different cases covered, this paper shows the study for the optimal choice of the geometric distribution of zones. The Upper Bound Theorem (UBT) by its Triangular Rigid Zones (TRZ) consideration, under modular distribution, is applied to indentation processes. To extend the application of the model, cases of different thicknesses are considered

Bound Theorem

A method for selecting admissible velocity fields is presented for incompressible material. As illustrations, extrusion processes through three basic types of curved dies have been treated: cosine, elliptic, and hyperbolic. Upper-bound theorem is used in obtaining mean extrusion pressures and also in choosing the most suitable deformation pattern for extrusion through square dies. Effects of die geometry, friction, and material properties are discussed.

The Impact

Based on the upper bound theorem of limit analysis, this paper presents a procedure for assessment of the influence of the soil anisotropy and nonhomogeneity on the stability of fissured slopes subjected to seismic action. By means of a mathematical optimization procedure written in Matlab software codes, the stability factors NS and λcφ are derived with respect to the best upper bound solutions. A series of stability charts are obtained in this paper, and then the critical locations of cracks are determined for cracks of known depth. The results demonstrate a significant influence of the soil anisotropy and nonhomogeneity on the stability of the fissured slopes and the location distribution of the cracks. In addition, the procedures for getting the factor of safety are put forward. It is shown that a decrease in the nonhomogeneity coefficient n0 and an increase in the anisotropy coefficient k could lead to the fissured slopes becoming unsafe. Finally, this article also illustrates the variation in the safety factor of fissured slopes under the impact of three factors (Kh, H1/H, and λ).

Bound Theorem

A three-dimensional (3D) numerical implementation of the limit analysis upper-bound theorem is used to determine passive horizontal earth-pressure coefficients. An extension technique allowing determination of the 3D passive earth pressures for any width-to-height ratios greater than 7 is presented. The horizontal passive earth-pressure coefficients are presented and compared with solutions published previously. Results of the ratio between the 3D and two-dimensional horizontal passive earth-pressure coefficients are shown and found to be almost independent of the soil-to-wall friction ratio. A simple equation is proposed for calculating this passive earth-pressure ratio.
