Vector Optimization Problems and Generalized Vector Variational-Like Inequalities

In this paper, some properties of  pseudoinvex functions, defined by means of  limiting subdifferential, are discussed. Furthermore, the Minty vector variational-like inequality,  the Stampacchia vector variational-like inequality, and the  weak formulations of these two inequalities  defined by means of limiting subdifferential are studied. Moreover, some relationships  between the vector vari...

Frequency Analysis of Embedded Orthotropic Circular and Elliptical Micro/Nano-Plates Using Nonlocal Variational Principle

In this paper, a continuum model based on the nonlocal elasticity theory is developed for vibration analysis of embedded orthotropic circular and elliptical micro/nano-plates. The nano-plate is bounded by a Pasternak foundation. Governing vibration equation of the nonlocal nano-plate is derived using Nonlocal Classical Plate Theory (NCPT). The weighted residual statement and the Galerkin method...

RBF-Chebychev direct method for solving variational problems

This paper establishes a direct method for solving variational problems via a set of Radial basis functions (RBFs) with Gauss-Chebyshev collocation centers. The method consist of reducing a variational problem into a mathematical programming problem. The authors use some optimization techniques to solve the reduced problem. Accuracy and stability of the multiquadric, Gaussian and inverse multiq...
