An introduction to the analysis of symmetric structures

TL;DR: In this article, the authors review and explain the techniques used to analyse symmetric structures subject to a general loading and introduce the most general way of describing the full symmetry properties of a structure based on group representation theory, and show how this approach can be used to systematically simplify a structural analysis.

Group-theoretic exploitations of symmetry in computational solid and structural mechanics

TL;DR: The use of group theory in simplifying the study of problems involving symmetry is a well-established approach in various branches of physics and chemistry, and major applications in these areas date back more than 70 years as discussed by the authors.

Bifurcation analysis of symmetric structures using block-diagonalization

TL;DR: In this article, a group-theoretic method to trace bifurcation behavior of truss structures with regular-polygonal symmetry is proposed, which decomposes the tangent-stiffness matrix into a block-diagonal form with possible occurrences of twice-repeated matrices.

Spatial period-doubling agglomeration of a core-periphery model with a system of cities

TL;DR: In this article, the progress of spatial agglomeration of Krugman's core-periphery model is investigated by comparative static analysis of stable equilibria with respect to transport costs.
Journal ArticleDOI

Group Symmetry in Interior-Point Methods for Semidefinite Program

TL;DR: Group symmetric Semi-Definite Programs (SDPs) as discussed by the authors are a class of SDPs that preserve group symmetry along the search direction, which theoretically guarantees that the numerically obtained optimal solution is group symmetric.
