Necessary and sufficient conditions for a set-valued map K : R ։ R to be GDQ-differentiable are given. It is shown that K is GDQ differentiable at t0 if and only if it has a local multiselection that is Cellina continuously approximable and Lipschitz at t0. It is also shown that any minimal GDQ of K at (t0, y0) is a subset of the contingent derivative of K at (t0, y0), evaluated at 1. Then this...

The generalized differential quadrature (GDQ) method is used to obtain the computational results of two-layer cross-ply laminated shell under rapid uniform heat induced vibration. In the thermally insulated vibration analyses of a laminated shell, the sudden uniform heat input over its lower surface only and temperature load is linear of axial coordinate. The GDQ method provides a method for ca...

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Systemic administration of Toll-like receptor (TLR) 4 and TLR9 agonists before cerebral ischemia have been shown to reduce ischemic injury by reprogramming the response of the brain to stroke. Our goal was to explore the mechanism of TLR-induced neuroprotection by determining whether a TLR7 agonist also protects against stroke injury. METHODS C57Bl/6, TNF(-/-), interfer...

The purpose of this note is to announce two new theories of generalized differentials—the “generalized differential quotients,” abbr. GDQs, and the “path-integral generalized differentials”, abbr. PIGDs—which have good open mapping properties and lead to general versions of the maximum principle. In particular, we use GDQ theory to state—in Theorem 5— a version of the maximum principle for hybr...

The study of magnetostrictive material in laminated plate under thermal vibration is calculated by using the generalized differential quadrature (GDQ) method. The YNS shear deformation effect is included in the time dependent of displacement field. In the thermoelastic stress-strain relations that containing the linear temperature rise and the magnetostrictive coupling terms with velocity feedb...

Abstract—The effect of non-homogeneity on the free transverse vibration of thin rectangular plates of bilinearly varying thickness has been analyzed using generalized differential quadrature (GDQ) method. The non-homogeneity of the plate material is assumed to arise due to linear variations in Young’s modulus and density of the plate material with the in-plane coordinates x and y . Numerical re...

This paper presents the application of the method of generalized differential quadrature (GDQ) for the analysis of hydrodynamic thrust bearings. GDQ is a simple, efficient, high-order numerical technique and it uses the information on all grid points to approach the derivatives of the unknown function. The effectiveness of the solution technique is verified by comparing the GDQ computed results...
