Towards Domain Decomposition for Nonlocal Problems

چکیده
Abstract. In this paper we present the first results on substructuring methods for nonlocal operators, specifically, an instance of the nonlocal p-Laplace operator. We present a nonlocal variational formulation of this operator, proving a nonlocal Poincaré inequality and upper bound to establish a spectral equivalence. We then introduce a nonlocal two-domain variational formulation utilizing nonlocal transmission conditions, and prove equivalence with the single-domain formulation. A nonlocal Schur complement is introduced. We establish condition number bounds for the nonlocal stiffness and Schur complement matrices. Supporting numerical experiments demonstrating the conditioning of the nonlocal singleand two-domain problems are presented.

Variational theory and domain decomposition for nonlocal problems
In this article we present the first results on domain decomposition methods for nonlocal operators. We present a nonlocal variational formulation for these operators and establish the well-posedness of associated boundary value problems, proving a nonlocal Poincaré inequality. To determine the conditioning of the discretized operator, we prove a spectral equivalence which leads to a mesh size ...
متن کاملNonlocal Elasticity Effect on Linear Vibration of Nano-circular Plate Using Adomian Decomposition Method
In this study, the small scale effect on the linear free-field vibration of a nano-circular plate has been investigated using nonlocal elasticity theory. The formulation is based on the classical theory and the linear strain in cylindrical coordinates. To take into account the small scale and the linear geometric effects, the governing differential equation based on the nonlocal elasticity theo...

متن کاملElement Free Galerkin Method for Static Analysis of Thin Micro/Nanoscale Plates Based on the Nonlocal Plate Theory
In this article, element free Galerkin method is used for static analysis of thin micro/nanoscale plates based on the nonlocal plate theory. The problem is solved for the plates with arbitrary boundary conditions. Since shape functions of the element free Galerkin method do not satisfy the Kronecker’s delta property, the penalty method is used to impose the essential boundary conditions. Discre...
متن کاملTowards Extremely Scalable Nonlinear Domain Decomposition Methods for Elliptic Partial Differential Equation
The solution of nonlinear problems, e.g., in material science requires fast and highly scalable parallel solvers. FETI-DP (Finite Element Tearing and Interconnecting) domain decomposition methods are parallel solution methods for implicit problems discretized by finite elements. Recently, nonlinear versions of the well-known FETI-DP methods for linear problems have been introduced. In these met...
