Reduction scheme for some structural eigenvalue problems by a variational theorem

TLDR
In this paper, an accurate reduction scheme for structural eigenvalue problems is deduced from a variational theorem in which the displacement, velocity and/or momentum fields are taken to be independent.

A reduction scheme for problems of structural dynamics

TL;DR: In this paper, a method for reducing the size of finite element systems in dynamics is presented based upon a variational theorem in which it is admissible to describe the inertial properties of structures by way of independent displacement, velocity and momentum fields.

Imposition of time-dependent boundary conditions in FEM formulations for elastodynamics: critical assessment of penalty-type methods

TL;DR: In this article, a variationally consistent incorporation of time dependent boundary conditions is proposed to avoid ad hoc procedures and is applicable to both linear as well as nonlinear problems, and it is shown that well known and broadly implemented modelling techniques such as large mass and large spring methods arise as limiting cases of the penalty formulation.

The finite element method in problems of nonlinear optics

TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated the applicability of the finite element method to the problem of thermal self-action in a nonlinear medium and presented a general approach to the cretion of conservative computation schemes based on varitional principles.

Performance of reduction methods for fluid–structure and acoustic eigenvalue problems

TL;DR: In this article, a methodology is presented for measuring the effectiveness of a finite element approach when compared with a reference finite element method with respect to accuracy and computation, which is applied to the Hughes reduction method for structural eigenvalue problems.

Reduction of stiffness and mass matrices

TL;DR: In this article, the authors proposed a method for reducing the size of the stiffness matrix by eliminating coordinates at which no forces are applied, based on the procedure used in Ref. 1 for stiffness matrix reduction.
