    Notes: A theory is described which guarantees an upper and lower bound estimate of the discretization error in numerical solutions of elliptic boundary value problems. This method gives bounded global estimates of the error in the energy norm. Pointwise estimates of the error in the solution variable or its derivatives can then be obtained if the numerical solution is exhibiting pointwise monotonic convergence.The versatility of this method is illustrated by its application to numerical solutions from finite element, finite difference and boundary element methods.

    Notes: Presented in this paper is a finite element method for the analysis of nonlinear oscillations which exhibit periodic response. The basic idea of the method is to recast the initial value problem as a boundary value problem in which the domain (that is, period) may be unknown. We apply the method to study the free response of the conservative oscillator ü + mu + ∊f(u)=0, where m is either - 1, 0 or 1, f(u) is an odd nonlinear function, and ∊ need not be small. The harmonically forced case, ü + mu + ∊f(u) = Psin Ωt, is also considered, and it is shown that the superharmonic response can be efficiently calculated using this technique.

    Notes: The finite strip method is applied to the non-linear analysis of plate structures. Large deflection effects are included via first order non-linearities in the strain-displacement relations, and material non-linearities are included via the von Mises yield criterion and associated flow rule. The virtual work equations are integrated numerically using Gauss quadrature, and the resulting non-linear equations are solved by Newton-Raphson iteration. Numerical results are presented for many applications including uniformly loaded rectangular and I beams, and square plates with either simply supported or clamped ends (or edges). The results are compared with known results from analytical and/or finite element analyses. Finally, a uniformly loaded stiffened panel is analysed and the results are compared with finite element results. In all cases, the results indicate that a single bending mode in the strip direction is sufficient to yield engineering accuracy for design purposes.

    Notes: Numerical solutions are presented for the problem of steady laminar combined convection flows in vertical parallel plate ducts. Axial diffusion is neglected in the analysis and the resulting governing equations, which are of a parabolic nature, are expressed in an implicit finite difference scheme using a vorticity-stream function formulation and are solved using a marching technique. A constant wall temperature boundary condition is used and investigations are restricted to the case Pr = 0.72. A large range of values of the ratio Gr/Re is considered, -300 ≤ Gr/Re ≤ 70, and comparisons are made with the case of pure forced convection. For large values of the ratio |Gr/Re| reverse flow occurs in the duct. A modification to the standard marching technique is introduced and complete solutions are achieved for these situations for the first time. Results are presented in terms of velocity profiles, Nusselt numbers, friction factors and temperature distributions.

    Notes: Consider a plane monochromatic electromagnetic wave normally incident on an absorbing dielectric slab, bounded by z = 0 and z = L, and whose electrical parameters ε, μ and σ are arbitrary functions of z. The media on either side of the slab have constant but generally different electrical properties. This paper describes an efficient numerical algorithm for calculating the electromagnetic field within the slab, as well as its absolute reflection and transmission coefficients. The waveform within the slab is represented by a new complex dependent variable satisfying a modified (complex) Helmholtz equation to be solved subject to mixed inhomogeneous conditions at the boundaries of the slab. If derivatives are replaced by nth-order centred differences, the difference equation set is linear, sparse and efficiently solved by direct recursion. In this paper, complex arithmetic is avoided by replacing the complex Helmholtz equation with two coupled, real, second-order ordinary differential equations. An algorithm of second-order accuracy is developed which leads to a bitridiagonal difference equation set. Calculations are carried out for a variable-property slab problem which can also be solved analytically. Numerical comparisons indicate that the method is accurate and efficient enough that a desk-top computer is a practical computational machine.

    Notes: Procedures to enforce equilibration of residuals and determine complementary a posteriori error estimates for linear elasticity have been published elsewhere.1-4 Methods for determining the error in stress and displacement have also been proposed.3 Here we discuss an extension to the procedure for equilibrating the residuals and apply it to a simple example. Results for the error in stress and displacement are presented.

    Notes: A matrix derivation of the method of partial decomposition for substructure equilibrium equations is given and algorithms and subroutines necessary for implementing a multi-level substructuring scheme are presented. The algorithms are based upon partial decomposition of skyline matrices by the Cholesky method. Transformation of co-ordinates and prediction of the skyline for higher level substructures are also discussed.

    Notes: A structure is defined by a set of governing points. These points can be used to define lines, surfaces and solids. A governing point can be connected to a design variable. The values of the design variables are determined in order to minimize the weight of the structure subject to a number of stress constraints. Three simple structures are then designed.

    Notes: Various mathematical programming methods for structural optimization are studied. In a companion paper, these methods have been studied based on certain theoretical considerations. In this paper, the methods are studied based on solving a set of test problems. The methods that are studied include recursive QP, feasible directions, gradient projection, SUMT and multiplier methods. Various computer codes have been developed, and are studied together with some existing programs such as CONMIN and OPTDYN. The test problems considered have 3-47 design variables and 3-252 constraints. The evaluation criteria consist of studying the accuracy, reliability and efficiency of a code. It turns out that globally convergent algorithms (multiplier methods, in particular) are very reliable but not efficient. Primal algorithms (like CONMIN), which are not proved to be globally convergent, are efficient but not reliable.

    Notes: This paper considers a layered thick shell finite element procedure for determining the dynamic transient nonlinear response of plates and shells. The degenerated three-dimensional isoparametric shell element with independent rotational and translational degrees-of-freedom is employed and a layered formulation is adopted to represent the steel reinforcement and to simulate progressive concrete cracking through the thickness. The dynamic yielding function is assumed to be a function of the current strain rate, in addition to being total plastic strain or work dependent. The concrete model also simulates both compressive crushing and tensile cracking behaviours and an implicit Newmark algorithm is employed for time integration of the equations of motion. Several numerical examples are presented for both slab and shell structures and the results obtained compared with those from other sources wherever available.
