This study proposes a new linear approximation for solving the dynamic response equations of a rocking rigid block. Linearization assumptions which have already been used by Hounser and other researchers cannot be valid for all rocking blocks with various slenderness ratios and dimensions; hence, developing new methods which can result in better approximation of governing equations while keepin...

This work introduces and derives an efficient, data-driven assimilation scheme, focused on a time-dependent stochastic subspace that respects nonlinear dynamics and captures non-Gaussian statistics as it occurs. The motivation is to obtain a filter that is applicable to realistic geophysical applications, but that also rigorously utilizes the governing dynamical equations with information theor...

We consider incompressible Euler flows in terms of the stream function in two dimensions and the vector potential in three dimensions. We pay special attention to the case with singular distributions of the vorticity, e.g., point vortices in two dimensions. An explicit equation governing the velocity potentials is derived in two steps. (i) Starting from the equation for the stream function [Ohk...

In this study, the hydrogen transport phenomenon was numerically evaluated by using hydrogen-enhanced localized plasticity (HELP) mechanisms. Two dominant governing equations, namely, the hydrogen transport model and the elasto-plastic model, were introduced. In addition, the implicitly formulated equations of the governing equations were implemented into ABAQUS UMAT user-defined subroutines. T...

Nonlinear difference equations of higher order are important in applications; such equations appear naturally as discrete analogues of differential and delay differential equations which model various diverse phenomena in biology, ecology, economics, physics and engineering. The study of dynamical properties of such equations is of great importance in many areas. The autonomous difference equat...

A method is presented for the stress analysis of flight vehicles under different flight conditions including gust and control surface deflection (or maneuver) using the governing equations of rigid-body motions and elastic deformations. The Lagrangian approach is used to derive the governing equations of motions. For this purpose, the basic equations of motions are derived in terms of potential...

This paper presents a geometric discretization of elasticity when the ambient space is Euclidean. This theory is built on ideas from algebraic topology, exterior calculus, and the recent developments of discrete exterior calculus. We first review some geometric ideas in continuum mechanics and show how constitutive equations of linearized elasticity, similar to those of electromagnetism, can be...

Many physical processes such as weather phenomena or fluid mechanics are governed by partial differential equations (PDEs). Modelling dynamical systems using Neural Networks is an active research field. However, current methods still very limited, they do not exploit the knowledge about nature of system, require extensive prior governing limited to linear first-order equations. In this work we ...
