Analysis of a One-Dimensional Nonlocal Quasi-Continuum Method
نویسندگان
چکیده
The accuracy of the quasicontinuum method is analyzed using a series of models with increasing complexity. It is demonstrated that the existence of the ghost force may lead to large errors. It is also shown that the ghost force removal strategy proposed by E, Lu and Yang leads to a version of the quasicontinuum method with uniform accuracy.

متن کاملNonlocal Effect on Buckling of Triangular Nano-composite Plates
In the present study, small scale effect on critical buckling loads of triangular nano- composite plates under uniform in-plane compression is studied. Since at nano-scale the structure of the plate is discrete, the size dependent nonlocal elasticity theory is employed to develop an equivalent continuum plate model for this nanostructure incorporating the changes in its mechanical behavior. The...

متن کاملAn Optimal Order Error Analysis of the One-Dimensional Quasicontinuum Approximation
We derive a model problem for quasicontinuum approximations that allows a simple, yet insightful, analysis of the optimal-order convergence rate in the continuum limit for both the energy-based quasicontinuum approximation and the quasi-nonlocal quasicontinuum approximation. For simplicity, the analysis is restricted to the case of second-neighbor interactions and is linearized about a uniforml...
