On the Stability of Approximation Operators in Problems of Structural Dynamics

نویسنده

  • ROBERT E. NICKELL
چکیده

Three direct integration schemes for the matrix equations of motion of structural dynamics-the Newmark generalized acceleration operator, the Wilson averaging variant of the linear acceleration operator and an averaging method based on a variational principle derived by Gurtin-are investigated for stability and approximation viscosity. Using established techniques developed by J. von Neumann and Lax and Richtmyer, the latter two approximation operators are found to be unconditionally stable. In addition, the constant average acceleration version of the Newmark method is found to be unconditionally stable and to possess no attenuation due to approximation viscosity. Truncation error due to the low-pass filtering characteristics of spatially discretized systems is highly damped by the Wilson averaging and Gurtin averaging operators; all three operators exhibit error in the period of the response which is a function of time step size.

On the approximation by Chlodowsky type generalization of (p,q)-Bernstein operators

In the present article, we introduce Chlodowsky variant of $(p,q)$-Bernstein operators and compute the moments for these operators which are used in proving our main results. Further, we study some approximation properties of these new operators, which include the rate of convergence using usual modulus of continuity and also the rate of convergence when the function $f$ belongs to the class Li...

Rough approximation operators based on quantale-valued fuzzy generalized neighborhood systems

Let $L$ be an integral and commutative quantale. In this paper, by fuzzifying the notion of generalized neighborhood systems, the notion of $L$-fuzzy generalized neighborhoodsystem is introduced and then a pair of lower and upperapproximation operators based on it are defined and discussed. It is proved that these approximation operators include generalized neighborhood system...

Modified Linear Approximation for Assessment of Rigid Block Dynamics

This study proposes a new linear approximation for solving the dynamic response equations of a rocking rigid block. Linearization assumptions which have already been used by Hounser and other researchers cannot be valid for all rocking blocks with various slenderness ratios and dimensions; hence, developing new methods which can result in better approximation of governing equations while keepin...

Definition of General Operator Space and The s-gap Metric for Measuring Robust Stability of Control Systems with Nonlinear Dynamics

In the recent decades, metrics have been introduced as mathematical tools to determine the robust stability of the closed loop control systems. However, the metrics drawback is their limited applications in the closed loop control systems with nonlinear dynamics. As a solution in the literature, applying the metric theories to the linearized models is suggested. In this paper, we show that usin...
