Generalized Newton Methods for Crack Problems with Non-penetration Condition

چکیده

A class of semismooth Newton methods for unilaterally constrained variational problems modelling cracks under a non-penetration condition are introduced and investigated. On the continuous level, a penalization technique is applied which allows to argue generalized differentiability of the nonlinear mapping associated to its first order optimality characterization. It is shown that the corresponding semismooth Newton method converges locally superlinearly. For the discrete version of the problem, fast local as well as global and monotonous convergence of a discrete semismooth Newton method are proved. A comprehensive report on numerical tests for the two-dimensional Lamé problem with three collinear cracks under the non-penetration condition ends the paper.

On the topological derivative due to kink of a crack with non-penetration. Anti-plane model

A topological derivative is defined, which is caused by kinking of a crack, thus, representing the topological change. Using variational methods, the anti-plane model of a solid subject to a non-penetration condition imposed at the kinked crack is considered. The objective function of the potential energy is expanded with respect to the diminishing branch of the incipient crack. The respective ...

A class of multi-agent discrete hybrid non linearizable systems: Optimal controller design based on quasi-Newton algorithm for a class of sign-undefinite hessian cost functions

 In the present paper, a class of hybrid, nonlinear and non linearizable dynamic systems is considered. The noted dynamic system is generalized to a multi-agent configuration. The interaction of agents is presented based on graph theory and finally, an interaction tensor defines the multi-agent system in leader-follower consensus in order to design a desirable controller for the noted system. A...

Global and Local Superlinear Convergence Analysis of Newton - TypeMethods for Semismooth Equations with Smooth Least

The local superlinear convergence of the generalized Newton method for solving systems of nonsmooth equations has been proved by Qi and Sun under the semismooth condition and nonsingularity of the generalized Jacobian at the solution. Unlike the Newton method for systems of smooth equations, globalization of the generalized Newton method seems dif-cult to achieve in general. However, we show th...

Detecting the location of the boundary layers in singular perturbation problems with general linear non-local boundary ‎conditions‎

Singular perturbation problems have been studied by many mathematicians. Since the approximate solutions of these problems are as the sum of internal solution (boundary layer area) and external ones, the formation or non-formation of boundary layers should be specified. This paper, investigates this issue for a singular perturbation problem including a first order differential equation with gen...
