We study the high-contrast biharmonic plate equation with HCT and Morley discretizations. We construct a preconditioner that is robust with respect to contrast size and mesh size simultaneously based on the preconditioner proposed by Aksoylu et al. (2008, Comput. Vis. Sci. 11, pp. 319–331). By extending the devised singular perturbation analysis from linear finite element discretization to the ...

in this paper, we study spacelike dual biharmonic curves. we characterize spacelike dual biharmonic curves in terms of their curvature and torsion in the lorentzian dual heisenberg group . we give necessary and sufficient conditions for spacelike dual biharmonic curves in the lorentzian dual heisenberg group . therefore, we prove that all spacelike dual biharmonic curves are spacelike dual heli...

We study the eigenvalues of the biharmonic operators and the buckling eigenvalue on complete, open Riemannian manifolds. We show that the first eigenvalue of the biharmonic operator on a complete, parabolic Riemannian manifold is zero. We give a generalization of the buckling eigenvalue and give applications to studying the stability of minimal Lagrangian submanifolds in Kähler manifolds. MSC 1...

In this paper, we first establish regularity of the heat flow of biharmonic maps into the unit sphere S ⊂ R under a smallness condition of renormalized total energy. For the class of such solutions to the heat flow of biharmonic maps, we prove the properties of uniqueness, convexity of hessian energy, and unique limit at t = ∞. We establish both regularity and uniqueness for Serrin’s (p, q)-sol...

Chen's biharmonic conjecture is well-known and stays open: The only biharmonic submanifolds of Euclidean spaces are the minimal ones. In this paper, we consider an advanced version of the conjecture, replacing $Delta$ by its extension, $L_1$-operator ($L_1$-conjecture). The $L_1$-conjecture states that any $L_1$-biharmonic Euclidean hypersurface is 1-minimal. We prove that the $L_1$-conje...

In this chapter a meshless method, based on the method of fundamental solutions (MFS) and radial basis functions (RBF), is developed to solve thin plate bending on an elastic foundation. In the presented algorithm, the analog equation method (AEM) is firstly used to convert the original governing equation to an equivalent thin plate bending equation without elastic foundations, which can be sol...
