During their service life, marine pipelines continually accumulate damage as a result of the action of various environmental forces. Clearly, the development of robust techniques for early damage detection is very important to avoid the possible occurrence of a disastrous structural failure. Most of vibration-based damage detection methods require the modal properties that are obtained from mea...

multi frequency vibrations of a system of two isotropic circular plates interconnected by a rolling visco-elastic layer that has nonlinear characteristics are considered. the system with two circular plates and interconnecting discrete continually distributed rolling visco nonlinear elastic rheological elements presents the model of hybrid nonlinear system. the analytical solutions of first asy...

This paper presents a 2D/3D discrete duality finite volume method for solving heterogeneous and anisotropic elliptic equations on very general unstructured meshes. The scheme is based on the definition of discrete divergence and gradient operators that fulfill a duality property mimicking the Green formula. As a consequence, the discrete problem is proved to be well-posed, symmetric and positiv...

In this paper we formulate and analyze a discretization method for a 2D linear singularly perturbed convection-diffusion problem with a singular perturbation parameter ε. The method is based on a nonconforming combination of the conventional Galerkin piecewise linear triangular finite element method and an exponentially fitted finite volume method, and on a mixture of triangular and rectangular...

Placement process is one of the vital stages in physical design. In this stage, modules and elements of circuit are placed in distinct locations according to optimization basis. So that, each placement process tries to influence on one or more optimization factor. In the other hand, it can be told unequivocally that FPGA is one of the most important and applicable devices in our electronic worl...

Hidden Markov Model is a popular statisical method that is used in continious and discrete speech recognition. The probability density function of observation vectors in each state is estimated with discrete density or continious density modeling. The performance (in correct word recognition rate) of continious density is higher than discrete density HMM, but its computation complexity is very ...

We present and analyze a coupled finite element-boundary element method for a model in stationary micromagnetics. The finite element part is based on mixed conforming elements. For two- and three-dimensional settings, we show well-posedness of the discrete problem and present an a priori error analysis for the case of lowest order elements.

We reformulate the discretization of the Johnson–Nedelec method [11] of coupling boundary elements and finite elements for an exterior bidimensional Laplacian. This new formulation leads to optimal error estimates and allows the use of simple quadrature formulas for calculation of the boundary element matrix. We show that if the parameter of discretization is sufficiently small, the fully discr...

New variational formulation to compute propagation constants is proposed. Based on it, vector finite element method is proved to exclude spurious modes provided finite elements possess discrete compactness property. Convergence analysis is conducted in the framework of collectively compact operators. Reported theoretical results apply to a wide class of vector finite elements including two fami...
