Local conical dimensions for measures
2012
AbstractWe study the decay of μ(B(x,r)∩C)/μ(B(x,r)) asr↓ 0 for different kinds of measures μ on ℝnand various conesCaroundx. As an application, we provide sufficient conditions that imply that the local dimensions can be calculated via cones almost everywhere.
On the critical behavior for inhomogeneous wave inequalities with Hardy potential in an exterior domain
2021
Abstract We study the wave inequality with a Hardy potential ∂ t t u − Δ u + λ | x | 2 u ≥ | u | p in ( 0 , ∞ ) × Ω , $$\begin{array}{} \displaystyle \partial_{tt}u-{\it\Delta} u+\frac{\lambda}{|x|^2}u\geq |u|^p\quad \mbox{in } (0,\infty)\times {\it\Omega}, \end{array}$$ where Ω is the exterior of the unit ball in ℝ N , N ≥ 2, p > 1, and λ ≥ − N − 2 2 2 $\begin{array}{} \displaystyle \left(\frac{N-2}{2}\right)^2 \end{array}$ , under the inhomogeneous boundary condition α ∂ u ∂ ν ( t , x ) + β u ( t , x ) ≥ w ( x ) on ( 0 , ∞ ) × ∂ Ω , $$\begin{array}{} \displaystyle \alpha \frac{\partial u}{\partial \nu}(t,x)+\beta u(t,x)\geq w(x)\quad\mbox{on } (0,\infty)\times \partial{\it\Omega}, \e…
Digital simulation of wind field velocity
1998
Abstract In this paper some computational aspects on the generation procedure of n -variate wind velocity vectors are discussed in detail. Decompositions of the power spectral density matrix are also discussed showing the physical significance of eigenquantities of this matrix.
A Nonlocal Mean Curvature Flow
2019
Consider a family { Γt}t≥0 of hypersurfaces embedded in \(\mathbb {R}^N\) parametrized by time t. Assume that each Γt = ∂Et, the boundary of a bounded open set Et in \(\mathbb {R}^N\).
Application of Rotational Measurements in Stiffness Reconstruction of Beams and Frames
2009
A stiffness reconstruction method is tested when rotational degrees of freedom are added to the dynamic model of the structure. The inverse problem is formulated as a minimization problem in terms of harmonic vibrations of the structure and its finite element model. An example of frame structure is analyzed by numerical simulations. The results of these numerical analyses show that the damage detection appeared to be much more effective when the angular amplitudes of harmonic vibrations are acquired. This makes very good prospects for the future applications of angular sensors in damage detection of structures.
Size effects of small-scale beams in bending addressed with a strain-difference based nonlocal elasticity theory
2019
Abstract A strain-difference based nonlocal elasticity model devised by the authors elsewhere (Polizzotto et al., Int. J. Solids Struct. 25 (2006) 308–333) is applied to small-scale homogeneous beam models in bending under static loads in the purpose to describe the inherent size effects. With this theory —belonging to the strain-integral nonlocal model family, but exempt from anomalies typical of the Eringen nonlocal theory— the relevant beam problem is reduced to a set of three mutually independent Fredholm integral equations of the second kind (each independent of the beam’s ordinary boundary conditions, only one depends on the given load), which can be routinely solved numerically. Appl…
Anisotropy in strain gradient elasticity: Simplified models with different forms of internal length and moduli tensors
2018
Abstract Anisotropy of centro-symmetric (first) strain gradient elastic materials is addressed and the role there played by the dual gradient directions (i.e. directions of strain gradient and of double stress lever arm) is investigated. Anisotropy manifests itself not only through the classical fourth-rank elasticity tensor C (21 independent constants) in the form of moduli anisotropy, but also through a sixth-rank elasticity tensor B (171 independent constants) in a unified non-separable form as compound internal length/moduli anisotropy. Depending on the microstructure properties, compound anisotropy may also manifest itself in a twofold separable form through a decoupled tensor B = L C …
Stability analysis of an electromagnetically levitated sphere
2006
We present a combined numerical and analytical approach to analyze the static and dynamic stabilities of an electromagnetically levitated spherical body depending on the ac frequency and the configuration of a three-dimensional (3D) coil made of thin winding which is modeled by linear current filaments. First, we calculate numerically the magnetic vector potential in grid points on the surface of the sphere and then use Legendre and fast Fourier transforms to find the expansion of the magnetic field in terms of spherical harmonics. Second, we employ a previously developed gauge transformation to solve analytically the 3D electromagnetic problem in terms of the numerically obtained expansion…
Stochastic Analysis of a Nonlocal Fractional Viscoelastic Bar Forced by Gaussian White Noise
2017
Recently, a displacement-based nonlocal bar model has been developed. The model is based on the assumption that nonlocal forces can be modeled as viscoelastic (VE) long-range interactions mutually exerted by nonadjacent bar segments due to their relative motion; the classical local stress resultants are also present in the model. A finite element (FE) formulation with closed-form expressions of the elastic and viscoelastic matrices has also been obtained. Specifically, Caputo's fractional derivative has been used in order to model viscoelastic long-range interaction. The static and quasi-static response has been already investigated. This work investigates the stochastic response of the non…
