Upper bound limit analysis using simplex strain elements and second-order cone programming
In geomechanics, limit analysis provides a useful method for assessing the capacity of structures such as footings and retaining walls, and the stability of slopes and excavations. This paper presents a finite element implementation of the kinematic (or upper bound) theorem that is novel in two main respects. First, it is shown that conventional linear strain elements (6-node triangle, 10-node ...
متن کاملA Novel Formulation of Upper Bound Limit Analysis as a Second-order Cone Programming Problem
In this paper we describe an efficient approach to upper bound limit analysis of cohesivefrictional continua, using a finite element discretization in conjunction with second-order cone programming (SOCP). We also introduce the use of linear strain elements, focusing here on 6-node triangles in plane strain, though a directly analogous extension to 10-node tetrahedra in 3D is straightforward. I...
متن کاملLower Bound Limit Analysis Using Nonlinear Programming
This paper describes a general numerical formulation of the lower bound theorem of classical plasticity. The method is based on simplex finite elements and nonlinear programming and is applicable to problems in one, two and three dimensions. The use of linear finite elements guarantees that the computed collapse loads are, within computational accuracy, rigorous lower bounds on the true collaps...
متن کاملError bound optimization using second order cone programming
In safety of life applications using satellite navigation, the Protection Level (PL) equation translates what is known about the pseudorange errors into a hard bound on the positioning error (the Protection Level). The current PL equations for Satellite Based Augmentation Systems are based on Gaussian statistics: all errors are characterized by a zero mean Gaussian distribution which is an uppe...
متن کاملWaveform Design using Second Order Cone Programming in Radar Systems
Transmit waveform design is one of the most important problems in active sensing and communication systems. This problem, due to the complexity and non-convexity, has been always the main topic of many papers for the decades. However, still an optimal solution which guarantees a global minimum for this multi-variable optimization problem is not found. In this paper, we propose an attracting met...
