The PCD Method on Composite Grid

The PCD Method on Composite Grid

abstract: We introduce a discretization method of boundary value problems (BVP) in the case of the two dimensional diffusion equation on a rectangular mesh with refined zones. The method consists in representing the unknown distribution and its derivatives by piecewise constant distributions (PCD) on distinct meshes together with an appropriate approximate variational formulation of the exact B...

buckling of viscoelastic composite plates using the finite strip method

در سال های اخیر، تقاضای استفاده از تئوری خطی ویسکوالاستیسیته بیشتر شده است. با افزایش استفاده از کامپوزیت های پیشرفته در صنایع هوایی و همچنین استفاده روزافزون از مواد پلیمری، اهمیت روش های دقیق طراحی و تحلیل چنین ساختارهایی بیشتر شده است. این مواد جدید از خودشان رفتارهای مکانیکی ارائه می دهند که با تئوری های الاستیسیته و ویسکوزیته، نمی توان آن ها را توصیف کرد. این مواد، خواص ویسکوالاستیک دارند....

Numerical Computations of the PCD Method

abstract: The PCD (piecewise constant distributions) method is a discretization technique of the boundary value problems in which the unknown distribution and its derivatives are represented by piecewise constant distributions but on distinct meshes. It has the advantage of producing the most sparse stiffness matrix resulting from the approximate problem. In this contribution, we propose a gene...

Local Mesh Refinement with the PCD Method

We propose some numerical tests for local mesh refinement using the PCD (piecewise constant distributions) method. The PCDmethod is a new discretization technique of boundary value problems. It represents the unknown distribution as well as its derivatives by piecewise constant distributions but on distinct meshes. With the PCDmethod, we can introduce a local mesh refinement without the use of ...
