We show that the finite time blow up solutions for the co-rotational Wave Maps problem constructed in [7,15] are stable under suitably small perturbations within the co-rotational class, provided the scaling parameter λ(t)=t−1−ν is sufficiently close to ...
An accurate solution of the wave equation at a fluid-solid interface requires a correct implementation of the boundary condition. Boundary conditions at acousto-elastic interface require continuity of the normal component of particle velocity and traction, ...
Let Omega subset of R-n be an open set, A is an element of R-nxn and G : Omega -> R-nxn be given. We look for a solution u : Omega -> R-n of the equation A del u + (del u)(t) A = G We also study the associated Dirichlet problem. (C) 2020 Elsevier Ltd. All ...
We determine the asymptotic behavior of eigenvalues of clamped plates under large compression by relating this problem to eigenvalues of the Laplacian with Robin boundary conditions. Using the method of fundamental solutions, we then carry out a numerical ...
Predictive gait simulations currently do not account for environmental or internal noise. We describe a method to solve predictive simulations of human movements in a stochastic environment using a collocation method. The optimization is performed over mul ...
The assessment of the risk maps for the seismic vulnerability at large scale is based on the vulnerability of each building. In order to determine these vulnerabilities, it is first required to assign to each building its construction class. The constructi ...
In the present work, an analytical solution is presented for the scattering of transverse surface waves by a homogeneous piezoelectric fiber contained in a functionally graded piezoelectric half-space with exponential variation. The boundary value problem ...
This paper presents the design, fabrication, and operation of compound micromachines powered by acoustic streaming. The machine components were directly incorporated around pillars serving as shafts without further assembly steps using a single-step in sit ...
Trimming is a common operation in CAD, and, in its simplest formulation, consists in removing superfluous parts from a geometric entity described via splines (a spline patch). After trimming the geometric description of the patch remains unchanged, but the ...
In this paper, we consider unilateral contact problem without friction between a rigid body and deformable one in the framework of isogeometric analysis. We present the theoretical analysis of the mixed problem. For the displacement, we use the pushforward ...
