建立广义变分原理的一种方法

本文建议了一种根据问题的力学意义来建立广义变分原理的方法,本方法对于那些尚未建立起与之相应的变分原理的问题建立其相应的变分原理是有用的.文中不从最小势能原理的推广出发而从力学意义出发导出了弹性力学中的Hu-Washizu广义变分原理和胡海昌广义余能原理,给出了这两个广义变分原理的正确证明.本文并证明了,如果根据Hu-Washizu广义变分原理及胡海昌广义余能原理中含有σ_ij,e_ij和u_i三类变量,就认为这三类变量相互独立,就会导致错误.文中并阐明了这两个广义变分原理正确运用的条件.

A Method for Establishing Generalized Variational Principle

A method for establishing generalized variational principle is proposed in this paper. It is based on the analysis of mechanical meaning and it can be applied to problems in which the variational principles are needed but no corresponding variational principle is available. In this paper, the Hu-Washizu's generalized variational principle and the Hu's generalized principle of complementary energy are derived from the mechanical meaning instead of from the generalization of the principle of minimum potenlial energy and the correct proofs of these two generaleed variational principles are given. It is also proved that this is wrong if one beleives that σ_ij, e_ij and ui are independent variables each other based on the reason that these three kinds of variables are all contained in these two generalized variational principles. The condition of using these two variational principles in a correct manner is also explained.
