Week - 2 - Explicit and Implicit Analysis
OBJECTIVE:
To solve the given equation, F(u) = `u^3+9u^2+4u` using both Explicit and Implicit Methods have a tolerance of `10^-2`.
The explanation for the methods:
Implicit:
- When the problem is nonlinear, the solution is obtained in several steps and the solution for the current step is based on the solution from the previous step.
- For large models, inverting the matrix is highly expensive and will require advanced iterative solvers (over standard direct solvers).
- Sometimes, this is also known as the backward Euler. These solutions are unconditionally stable and facilitate larger time steps.
- Despite this advantage, the implicit methods can be extremely time-consuming when solving dynamic and nonlinear problems. The implicit method should be used when the events are much slower and the effects of strain rates are minimal.
- Once the growth of stress as a function of strain can be established, these can be analyzed using implicit methods. 3
Explicit:
- The explicit Method is a time-dependent method. It is used to solve Non-linear equation problems. Since there is a condition for the method to be stable, it is called a conditionally stable method.
- In this method the force and acceleration of the methods various rapidly within a short period of time. As compared to the implicit method here we don't need to solve inverse k matrix instead we solve inverse mass(m) matrix which will be a diagonal matrix.
- In most cases, the mass matrix is considered as “lumped” and thus a diagonal matrix. Inversion of a diagonal matrix is straightforward and includes inversion of the terms on the diagonal only.
- Once the accelerations are calculated at the nth step, the velocity at the n+1/2 step and displacement at the n+1 step are calculated accordingly. In these calculations, the scheme is not unconditionally stable and thus smaller time steps are required.
Problem and Explanation:
Given Equation:`F(u)=u^3 + 9u^2 +4u`
- The variables used are u for displacement, f for internal force in the bar, F for the external force applied to the bar, and k for stiffness. Incremental displacements or incremental externally applied forces are represented as `Delta`u or,`DeltaF`
respectively. Use is made of the relationship ∆F = k∆u. The analysis proceeds as follows:
Solution based on Explicit Method:
Step1:
`u0 =0.0`
`k(u0)=3(u0)^2 +18(u0) +4`
=`3(0)^2 + 18(0)+4`
= 4
`DeltaF1 = 1 Rightarrow Deltau1 = ((DeltaF1)/(k(u0))) = 1/4`
`Deltau1 = 0.25`
`u1 = u0+Deltau1`
`u1 = 0.25`
Step 2:
`u1 = 0.25`
`k(u1) =3(u1)^2 + 18(u1) +4`
=`3(0.25)^2 +18(0.25)+4`
`k(u1) = 8.69`
`Delta F2 = 1, Rightarrow Deltau2 = (DeltaF2)/(k(u1)`
`Deltau2 =0.12`
`u2 = u1+Deltau2`
`u2 = 0.37`
Step 3:
`u2 =0.37`
`k(u2)=3(u2)^2+18(u2)+4`
`k(u1)=11.07`
`DeltaF3 =1, Rightarrow Deltau3 =(DeltaF3)/(k(u1)`
`Deltau3=0.09`
`u3 u2+Deltau3`
`u3=0.46`
From the above three-step, the following results are obtained.
`Fext = DeltaF1+DeltaF2+DeltaF3`
=`1+1+1=3`
`Fext = 3`
`FInt = (u3)^3+9(u3)^2+4(u3)`
=`(0.46)^3+9(0.46)^2+4(0.46)`
`FInt cong 3.85`
It is very clear from the result that external and internal force is not in equilibrium.
Tabulated Values:
| Step | `DeltaFi` | `Deltaui` | `ui` | `(Fext)i` | `(FInt)i` | `R=FInt-Fext` | |
| 1 | 1 | 0.25 | 0.25 | 1 | 1.58 | 0.58 | |
| 2 | 1 | 0.11 | 0.37 | 2 | 2.76 | 0.76 | |
| 3 | 1 | 0.09 | 0.46 | 3 | 3.85 | 0.85 |
Solution based on Implicit Method:
Step1:
`DeltaF=1`
`k(u0)=3(u0)^2 +18(u0)+4`
`k(u0) = 3(0)+18(u0)+4`
`Deltau1 = (DeltaF)/(k(u0)) =1/4 =0.25`
`u1=u0+Deltau1=0+0.25=0.25`
`F(u1)=(u1)^3+9(u1)^2 +4(u1)`
`F(u1)=(0.25)^3+9(0.25)^2+4(0.25)=1.578`
`Fext = DeltaF = 1`
`R = F(u1)-Fext=1.578-1=0.578`
- Since`||R||>0.01`, Newton-Raphson iterations have to be done to obtain a correction factor to bring the R-value within the tolerance.
Correction Factor :`u1 = delu(1)1=-[k(u(0)1]^-1R^0`
`delu(1)^1=-[8.688]^-1 .0.578-=0.00665'`
Updated value of`u1=u(1)^1=u1+delu(1)^1=0.25+(-0.00665)=0.183`
`F(1)=((u(1)^1)^3+(9)u(1)^1)^2+4(u(1)^1))`
`F(1)=(0.183)^3+9(0.183)=1.039`
Residual,`R(1)=F(1)-Fext=1.039-1=0.039`
`||R||` is not within tolerance limit>We need to do correction Factor one more time
Correction factor for `u1=delu(2)^1=delu(1)^1-[k(u(1)^1]^(-1)R^(1)`
`k(u(1)^1)=3(0.183)^2+18(0.183)+4=7.394``R(1)=0.039`
`delu(2)^1=-0.0665-[7.394]^(-1).0.039=-0.0718`
Updated Value of u2 = `u^1+delu(2)^1=0.25+(-0.0718)=0.1782`
`F(2)=(0.1782)^3+9(0.1783)^2+4(0.1782)=1.004`
Residual,`R^2=F(2)-Fext=1.004-1=0.004`
Within tolerance Limit
Step 2:
`DeltaF=1`
`k(u1)=3(u1)^2+18(u1)+4=3(0.1782)^2+18(0.1782)+4=7.302`
`delu2=(delF)/(k(u1)) =(1/7.302)=0.137``u2=u1+delu2=0.178+0.137=0.315`
`F(u2)=(u2)^3+9(u2)^2+4u2=(0.315)^3+9(0.315)^2+4(0.315)=2.184`
`Fext=delF+delF=1+1=2`
`R=F(u2)-Fext=2.184-2=0.184`
Interation:
`k(u2)=9.967``R^0=0.184`
Correction Factor for`u2`is:
`deltau_2^1=-[k(u_2^0)]^-0R^0`
`deltau_2^1 = -[9.967]^-1 .0184=-0.0185`
Corrected`u2 :u2=u2+deltau_2^1=0.315+(-0.0185)=0.296`
`F^1=(u_2^1)^3+9(u_2^1)^2+4u_2^1`
`F1=0.296^3+9(0.296)^2+4(0.0296)=1.998`
Updated residual:`R^1=F^1-Fext=1.998-2=-0.002`
`||R||<0.01`,it has reached within the tolerance limit. so no need to further interation
Step 3:
`k(u2)=3(u2)^2+18(u2)+4=3(0.296)^2+18(0.296)+4=9.59`
`delu3=(delF)/(k(u2)) =1/9.59=0.104`
`u3=u2+du3=0.296+0.104=0.4`
`F(u3)=(u3)^3+9(u3)^2+4u3=0.4+9(0.4)^2+4(0.4)=3.104`
`Fext=delF+delF+delF=1+1+1=3`
`R=F(u3)-Fext=3.104-3=0.104`
Iteration:
`u3=0.4`
`k(u_3^0)=3(0.4)^2+18(0.4)+4=11.68`
`R_0=0.104`
`deltau_3^1=-[k(u_3^0)]^-0R^0`
`deltau_2^1=-[11.68]^-1. 0.104=-0.0089`
`u_3=u_3+deltau_3^1=0.4+(-0.0089)=0.3911`
`F^1=(u_3^1)^3+9(u_3^1)^2+4(u_3^1)`
`F^1=(0.3911)^3+9(0.3911)^2+4(0.3911)=3.0008`
`R^1=F^1-Fext=3.008-3=-0.0008`
`||R||<0.01`,it has reached within the tolerance limit.so no need to further iteration
