A multisymplectic integrator for elastodynamic frictionless impact problems

Tudor Ratiu, François Gay-Balmaz, François Marie Alain Demoures, Alejandro Marcos Aragon, Mathieu Desbrun

We present a structure preserving numerical algorithm for the collision of elastic bodies. Our integrator is derived from a discrete version of the field-theoretic (multisymplectic) variational description of nonsmooth Lagrangian continuum mechanics, combi ...

Multisymplectic variational integrators are structure-preserving numerical schemes especially designed for PDEs derived from covariant spacetime Hamilton principles. The goal of this paper is to study the properties of the temporal and spatial discrete evo ...

This paper develops the theory of multisymplectic variational integrators for nonsmooth continuum mechanics with constraints. Typical problems are the impact of an elastic body on a rigid plate or the collision of two elastic bodies. The integrators are ob ...

The goal of this paper is to derive a structure preserving integrator for geometrically exact beam dynamics, by using a Lie group variational integrator. Both spatial and temporal discretization are implemented in a geometry preserving manner. The resultin ...

In this paper we develop, study, and test a Lie group multisymplectic integra- tor for geometrically exact beams based on the covariant Lagrangian formulation. We exploit the multisymplectic character of the integrator to analyze the energy and momentum ma ...

Multisymplectic Lie group variational integrator for a geometrically exact beam in R-3

Tudor Ratiu, François Gay-Balmaz, François Marie Alain Demoures

In this paper we develop, study, and test a Lie group multisymplectic integrator for geometrically exact beams based on the covariant Lagrangian formulation. We exploit the multisymplectic character of the integrator to analyze the energy and momentum map ...

Elsevier2014

The purpose of this thesis is to develop variational integrators synchronous or asynchronous, which can be used as tools to study complex structures composed of plates and beams subjected to large deformations and stress. We consider the geometrically exac ...

Flexible beam in R3 under large overall motions and Asynchronous Variational Integrators

Yves Weinand, Tudor Ratiu, François Gay-Balmaz, François Marie Alain Demoures

The theory of discrete variational mechanics has its roots in the optimal control literature of the 1960's. The past ten years have seen a major development of discrete variational mechanics and corresponding numerical integrators, due largely to pioneerin ...

AVI as a mechanical tool for studying dynamic and static beam structures

François Marie Alain Demoures

In this paper we study the dynamic behavior of an isotropic Kirchhoff- Love beam and investigate the equilibrium position of an Euler-Bernoulli beam. Using the discrete Euler-Lagrange and Lagrange-d’Alembert principles, we simulate the behavior by means of ...

AVI as a Mechanical Tool for Studying Dynamic and Static Euler-Bernoulli Beam Structures

Yves Weinand, Tudor Ratiu, François Marie Alain Demoures

The equilibrium position of an Euler-Bernoulli beam is investigated. Using the discrete Euler-Lagrange and Lagrange-d’Alembert principles, the behavior of the beam is simulated using variational integrators and, in particular, AVIs (Asynchronous Variationa ...
