摄动有限元法解一般轴对称壳几何非线性问题

本文在处理几何非线性问题时,利用在变分方程中引入振动过程,得到各级变分摄动方程,并通过有限元法求解.由于有限元法能成功地处理各种复杂边界条件、几何形状的力学问题,摄动法又可将非线性问题转化为线性问题求解.若结合这两种方法的优点,将能够解决大量复杂的非线性力学问题.并能够消除单独使用有限元法或摄动法求解复杂非线性问题所出现的困难. 本文应用摄动有限元法求解了一般轴对称壳的几何非线性问题.

Perturbation Finite Element Method for Solving Geometrically Non-linear Problems of Axisymmetrical Shell

In analysing the geometrically nonlinear problem of an axisymmetrical thin-walled shell,the paper combines the perturbation method with the finite element method by introducing the former into the variational equation to obtain a series of linear equations of different orders and then solving the equations with the latter. It is well-known that the finite element method can be used to deal with difficult problems as in the case of structures with complicated shapes or boundary conditions,and the perturbation method can change the nonlinear problems into linear ones. Evidently the combination of the two methods will give an efficient solution to many difficult nonlinear problems and clear away some obstacles resulted from using any of the two methods solely.The paper derives all the formulas concerning an axisym-metric. shell of large deformation by means of the perturbation finite element method and gives two numerical examples,the results of which show good convergence characteristics.
