How to Regularize a Symplectic-Energy-Momentum Integrator
نویسنده
چکیده
We identify ghost trajectories of symplectic-energy-momentum (SEM) integration and show that the ghost trajectories are not time reversible. We explain how SEM integration can be regularized, in a SEM preserving manner, so that it is time reversible. We describe an algorithm for implementing the regularized SEM integrator. Simulation results for the pendulum are given. Coordinate invariance of the regularized SEM integrator is briefly discussed.

2 Example : The Nonlinear Pendulum
We provide new existence and uniqueness results for the discrete-time Hamilton (DTH) equations of a symplectic-energy-momentum (SEM) integrator. In particular, we identify points in extended-phase space where the DTH equations of SEM integration have no solution for arbitrarily small time steps. We use the nonlinear pendulum to illustrate the main ideas. 1 Background Is symplectic-energy-moment...
متن کاملSymplectic-energy-momentum preserving variational integrators
The purpose of this paper is to develop variational integrators for conservative mechanical systems that are symplectic and energy and momentum conserving. To do this, a space–time view of variational integrators is employed and time step adaptation is used to impose the constraint of conservation of energy. Criteria for the solvability of the time steps and some numerical examples are given. ©...
متن کاملEfficient Symplectic-Energy-Momentum Integration of Hamiltonian Dynamical Systems
The implicit equations of a symplectic-energymomentum integrator are not easily solved, especially for small time steps. An inefficient, nested iteration scheme has typically been used to solve these equations. We describe new, more efficient, iteration schemes which avoid nested iterations. We present simulation results comparing five different secondorder, integration methods for two differen...
متن کاملApplication of a Symplectic-Energy-Momentum Preserving Integrator to Molecular Dynamics
In molecular dynamics simulations, an integrator-induced resonance is observed for conservative molecular system subject to the classical equations of motion when a Verlet integrator or Implicit Midpoint scheme is used. In this report, an existing variational integrator with adaptive timesteps is introduced to handle resonance. This Symplectic-Energy-Momentum (SEM) preserving algorithm is first...
متن کاملVariational Integrators and Time-dependent Lagrangian Systems
There are several numerical integration methods [16] that preserve some of the invariants of an autonomous mechanical system. In [8], T.D. Lee studies the possibility that time can be regarded as a bona fide dynamical variable giving a discrete time formulation of mechanics (see also [9, 10]). From other point of view (integrability aspects) Veselov [19] uses a discretization of the equations o...
