In this paper, numerical spline-based differential quadrature is presented for solving the boundary and initial value problems, and its application is used to solve the fixed rectangular membrane vibration equation. For the time integration of the problem, the Runge–Kutta and spline-based differential quadrature methods have been applied. The Runge–Kutta method was unstable for solving the prob...

this paper presents the application of the generalized differential quadrature (gdq) method for the hydrodynamic analysis of circular and noncircular, two lobe and three lobe, journal bearings. gdq is a simple, efficient, high-order numerical technique and it uses the information on all grid points to approach the derivatives of the unknown function. the effectiveness of the solution technique ...

An equivalent continuum model based on the Eshelby-Mori-Tanaka approach was employed to estimate the effective constitutive law for an elastic isotropic medium (i.e., the matrix) with oriented straight carbon nanotubes (CNTs). The two-dimensional generalized differential quadrature method was an efficient and accurate numerical tool for discretizing equations of motion and for implementing vari...

An initial value problem for a Fractional Differential Equation (FDE) can be reformulated as a Volterra integral equation of the second kind with weakly singular kernel. Its solution can be approximated by applying suitable convolution quadratures. Methods of this type currently available in the literature are, for example, Adams product quadrature rules or Fractional Linear Multistep Methods, ...

In this article, using generalized differential quadrature (GDQ) methods, free vibration of a thin annular plate coupled with two open circuit piezoelectric layers, is numerically studied based on the classical plate theory. The governing differential equations with respective boundary conditions are derived and transformed into a set of algebraic equations by implementing the GDQ rule, then so...

this paper investigates existence and uniqueness results for the first order fuzzy integro-differential equations. then numerical results and error bound based on the left rectangular quadrature rule, trapezoidal rule and a hybrid of them are obtained. finally an example is given to illustrate the performance of the methods.

in this paper deflection and free vibration of sandwich panel is studied. the core of sandwich panels is made of hexagonal honeycomb and faces are made of two different materials of carbon fiber reinforced plastic and k-aryl/epoxy covering. the governing equations are deduced from the first order sheer deformation theory (fsdt) and they are solved using generalized differential quadrature metho...
