Pseudo-transient Continuation for Nonlinear Transient Elasticity
نویسنده
چکیده
We show how the method of pseudo-transient continuation can be applied to improve the robustness of the Newton iteration within a nonlinear transient elasticity simulation. Pseudotransient continuation improves efficiency and robustness of the transient analysis by enabling larger time steps than possible with a Newton iteration. We illustrate the algorithm by reporting on a simulation of a buckling cylinder.

Adaptive Pseudo–transient Continuation for Nonlinear Steady State Problems
Pseudo–transient continuation methods are quite popular for the numerical solution of steady state problems, typically in PDEs. They are based on an embedding into a time dependent initial value problem. In the presence of dynamical invariants the Jacobian matrix of the nonlinear equation system is bound to be singular. The paper presents a convergence analysis which takes this property into ac...
متن کاملExplicit Pseudo-transient Continuation
We analyze and extend an explicit pseudo-transient continuation algorithm proposed by Han and Han. We present a convergence proof, extend the method to bound-constrained optimization, and proposed an improved step-size control strategy. 1. Introduction. The purpose of this paper is to analyze and extend an explicit version of pseudo-transient continuation (ΨTC) which has been proposed in [6] fo...
متن کاملPseudo-Transient Continuation for Nonsmooth Nonlinear Equations
Pseudo-transient continuation is a Newton-like iterative method for computing steady-state solutions of differential equations in cases where the initial data is far from a steady state. The iteration mimics a temporal integration scheme, with the time step being increased as steady state is approached. The iteration is an inexact Newton iteration in the terminal phase. In this paper we show ho...
متن کاملPseudo transient continuation and time marching methods for Monge-Ampère type equations
We present two numerical methods for the fully nonlinear elliptic MongeAmpère equation. The first is a pseudo transient continuation method and the second is a pure pseudo time marching method. The methods are proved to converge for smooth solutions. We give numerical evidence that they are also able to capture the viscosity solution of the Monge-Ampère equation. Even in the case of the degener...
متن کاملPseudotransient Continuation and Differential-Algebraic Equations
Abstract. Pseudo-transient continuation is a practical technique for globalizing the computation of steady-state solutions of nonlinear differential equations. The technique employs adaptive time-stepping to integrate an initial value problem derived from an underlying ODE or PDE boundary value problem until sufficient accuracy in the desired steady-state root is achieved to switch over to Newt...
