The evaluation of sums (matrix–vector products) of the solutions of the three-dimensional biharmonic equation can be accelerated using the fast multipole method, while memory requirements can also be significantly reduced. We develop a complete translation theory for these equations. It is shown that translations of elementary solutions of the biharmonic equation can be achieved by considering ...

The aim of this article is to establish the existence of at least three‎ ‎solutions for a perturbed $p$-biharmonic equation depending on two‎ ‎real parameters‎. ‎The approach is based on variational methods‎.

We consider in dimension four weakly convergent sequences of approximate biharmonic maps into sphere with bi-tension fields bounded in L for some p > 1. We prove an energy identity that accounts for the loss of Hessian energies by the sum of Hessian energies over finitely many nontrivial biharmonic maps on R.

In this paper, we study B-focal curves of biharmonic B -general helices according to Bishop frame in the Heisenberg group Heis   Finally, we characterize the B-focal curves of biharmonic B- general helices in terms of Bishop frame in the Heisenberg group Heis        

We consider a finite element method based on biorthogonal or quasi-biorthogonal systems for the biharmonic problem. The method is based on the primal mixed finite element method due to Ciarlet and Raviart for the biharmonic equation. Using different finite element spaces for the stream function and vorticity, this approach leads to a formulation only based on the stream function. We prove optim...

Given a prescribed boundary of a Bézier surface, we compare the Bézier surfaces generated by two different methods, i.e., the Bézier surface minimising the biharmonic functional and the unique Bézier surface solution of the biharmonic equation with prescribed boundary. Although often the two types of surfaces look visually the same, we show that they are indeed different. In this paper, we prov...

In this article we prove the regularity of weakly biharmonic maps of domains in Euclidean four space into spheres, as well as the corresponding partial regularity result of stationary biharmonic maps of higher-dimensional domains into spheres. c © 1999 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. Introduction In this article we consider the notion of biharmonic maps and begin an analytic study of the regularity pro...

The paper studies boundary integral operators of the bi{Laplacian on piecewise smooth curves with corners and describes their mapping properties in the trace spaces of variational solutions of the biharmonic equation. We formulate a direct integral equation method for solving mixed boundary value problems for the biharmonic equation on a nonsmooth plane domain, analyse the solvability of the co...

The study of biharmonic functions under the ordinary (Euclidean) Laplace operator on the open unit disk D in C arises in connection with plate theory, and in particular, with the biharmonic Green functions which measure, subject to various boundary conditions, the deflection at one point due to a load placed at another point. A homogeneous tree T is widely considered as a discrete analogue of t...

Biharmonic equation is one of the most existing operator in many areas, especially in fluid and solid mechanics, but difficult to solve due to the fourth order derivatives in the differential equation. In this paper we deal with the use of the local particular solution method to solve the two-dimensional biharmonic equation in a bounded region. The technique is based on decoupling the biharmoni...
