in this paper, we have proposed a new iterative method for finding the solution of ordinary differential equations of the first order. in this method we have extended the idea of variational iteration method by changing the general lagrange multiplier which is defined in the context of the variational iteration method.this causes the convergent rate of the method increased compared with the var...

properties of the hybrid of block-pulse functions and lagrange polynomials based on the legendre-gauss-type points are investigated and utilized to define the composite interpolation operator as an extension of the well-known legendre interpolation operator. the uniqueness and interpolating properties are discussed and the corresponding differentiation matrix is also introduced. the applicabili...

In the present paper, some finite element softwares about interaction of dam and reservoir during earthquake in time domain are discussed. Impedance option is used as boundary condition of absorbent of reservoir and wave. For each software, time history analysis of pressure and displacement are done and finally suitable elements for dam structure and reservoir fluid are introduced comparing the...

the isogeometric analysis is increasingly used in various engineering problems. it is based on non-uniform rational b-splines (nurbs) basis function applied for the solution field approximation and the geometry description. one of the major concerns with this method is finding an efficient approach to impose essential boundary conditions, especially for inhomogeneous boundaries. the main contri...
