Chapter 1

Finite elements is a solution to a boundary value problem usually a PDE

i. variational weak form

ii. approximate solution to new weakened pde using finite element functions

Start with an ODE $u_{, x x}+f=0$ mapped onto the unit interval $f : [0,1] \rightarrow \mathbb{R}$ where [0,1] is the domain

Strong Form

solution to strong form $u(x)=q+(1-x) h+\int{x}^{1}\left{\int{0}^{y} \ell(z) d z\right} d y$

dummy variables not really represent directional stuff

we can weaken this with method of weighted residuals

Weak Variational Form

let u be a trial function we need n derivatives so the nth derivative has a nice quality

square integrable:$\int{0}^{1}\left(u{, x}\right)^{2} d x<\infty$ or $\mathcal{H}^1$

all those that work make the collection $\delta = \left{u | u \in H^1, u(1)=g\right}$ where g is a is a nonzero essential boundary condition

the other is the weighing function space $\mathcal{V} = \left{w | w \in H^{1}, w(1)=0\right}$

\text{weak form} = \left\{ \begin{array} & \text{given before }\\ \int_{0}^{1} w_{, x} u_{, x} d x=\int_{0}^{1} w f d x+w(0) h \end{array} \right.

this is called virtual work/displacement/principals where the $w,_x$ is the virtual part and the generalized part

Galerkin

$u^{h}=v^{h}+a^{h}$

Descretize function space

δhδ (i.e., if uhSh, then uhE)vμU( i.e., if whUh, then whU)\begin{array}{ll}{\delta^{h} \subset \delta} & { \text { (i.e., if }\left.u^{h} \in \mathcal{S}^{h}, \text { then } u^{h} \in \mathcal{E}\right)} \\ {v^{\mu} \subset \mathcal{U}} & {\left(\text { i.e., if } w^{h} \in \mathcal{U}^{h}, \text { then } w^{h} \in \mathcal{U}\right)}\end{array}

write variational weak form

$a\left(w^{h}, u^{h}\right)=\left(w^{h}, \ell\right)+w^{h}(0) h$

$a\left(w^{h}, v^{h}\right)=(w^{h},f)+w^{h}(0) k-a\left(w^{h}, q^{h}\right)$

Bubnov Galerkin

pose the weak form in the finite space

Petrov galerkin is when the weigh function is not of the homogenous variety?

Positive Definite

definition: matrix $\bf A$ is positive definite if $\bf c \cdot A \cdot c \geq 0 \space \forall \space c$ $\bf c \cdot A \cdot c = 0 \space |\space c = 0$ .

properties:

  • unique inverse

  • eigenvalues $\mathbb{R}^+$

Vector Space Definitions

Weight space

$\delta^h \in \delta \subset {w| w\in \mathcal{H}^n, w|_{\Gamma_g} =0} $

Trial space

$\mathcal{V}^h \in \delta \subset {w| w\in \mathcal{H}^n, w|_{\Gamma_g} =0} $

whatchamacallit space

$\mathcal{H}^n$ is the collection of square integral spaces, which measures how many inner products on derivative you can take before one of them blows up or has a singularity.

uH0 if Ωu2dΩ<uH1 if Ω(uuH0+u,iu,i)H1dΩ<u \in H^{0} \text { if } \int_{\Omega} u^{2} d \Omega<\infty \\ u \in H^{1} \text { if } \int_{\Omega} \overbrace{ \left( \overbrace{u u}^{H_0} +u_{, i} u_{, i}\right) }^{H_1} d \Omega<\infty

remember that our stiffness matrix is found by the energy inner product, so that $\int{0}^{1} w{, x} \kappa u_{, x} d x$. This is well behaved if the function is square integrable on $H$.

Linear spaces have very nice properties that make it easy for us to “prove” things will behave the way we would like. Thus we want to be sure to know when the contributions to our FE weak forms are members of linear spaces. (For this class they will be, as you get to more complex problems they may not be, then things you have to figure out what you can use. Key linear space properties we like to employ are inner products (like our integrals to be inner products) and norms (which will represent a measure of size).

Weighing function and trial functions have nice properties here

Recall that $f : \Omega \rightarrow \mathfrak{R}, \kappa \in \mathfrak{R}$$$

$\int{0}^{1} w{, x} \kappa u_{, x} d x$it is clear that it will be well behaved for u and w in H1

we want weighting function to be in the space $V=\left{w\left|w \in H^{1}, w\right|{\Gamma{g}}=0\right}$

which is the set of functions where the weight on the closure of the set is 0

trial space is similar but not homogenous bc $\boldsymbol{\delta}=\left{u\left|u \in H^{1}, u\right|{\Gamma{s}}=g\right}$

Equivalence of S and W.pdf

This shows how that the strong and weak forms are the same thing: all that separates the two is the application of $\textcolor{red}{\texttt{INTEGRATION BY PARTS}}$.

how did we get here

??

Strong solution satisfies the weak

We have a solution to the strong form $u{, x x}+f=0 \text { in } \Omega$, where $u(1) = g$ and $-u(0) = h$ and we want to show that this also holds over an interval

uxx+f=0 in Ω01wthis is new(uxx+f)dx=0 wVu_{x x}+f=0 \text { in } \Omega \rightarrow \overbrace{ -\int_0^1 w }^\text{this is new}(u_{x x}+f) dx = 0 \forall \space w \in \mathcal{V}

We now apply integration by parts

01w,xuxdx01wfdxwux01=0wV\int_{0}^{1} w_{, x} u_{x} d x-\int_{0}^{1} w f d x-\left.w u_{x}\right|_{0} ^{1}=0 \forall w \in V

apply the boundary conditions where $w(1)=0(w \in V), \text { and }-u_{, x}(0)=h$

01w,xu,xdx=01wfdx+w(0)hwV\int_{0}^{1} w_{, x} u_{, x} d x=\int_{0}^{1} w f d x+w(0) h \quad \forall w \in V

weak solution satisfies the strong

we don’t need to do this again, but needs to be done to show that they are equivalent

weak form: 01wxuxdx=01wfdx+w(0)hwV\text{weak form: } \int_{0}^{1} w_{x} u_{x} d x=\int_{0}^{1} w f d x+w(0) h \forall w \in \mathcal{V}

inorder to reverse integration by parts

01w(u,xx+f)dxwu,x01+w(0)h=0wV\int_{0}^{1} w\left(u_{, x x}+f\right) d x-\left.w u_{, x}\right|_{0} ^{1}+w(0) h=0 \quad \forall w \in V

and again apply boundary conditions $w(1)=0(w \in V)$

01w(uxx+f)dx+w(0)(ux(0)+h)=0wVq.A\int_{0}^{1} w\left(u_{x x}+f\right) d x+w(0)\left(u_{x}(0)+h\right)=0 \forall w \in V \in q . A

Solution Uniqueness

Give the previous expression of functions and their spaces

a(w,u)=(w,f)+(w,h)Γa(w, u)=(w, f)+(w, h)_{\Gamma}

Proof by contradiction

a(w,u1)=(w,f)+(w,h)Γa(w,u2)=(w,f)+(w,h)Γ\begin{aligned} a(w, u 1) &=(w, f)+(w, h)_{\Gamma} \\ a(w, u 2) &=(w, f)+(w, h)_{\Gamma} \end{aligned}

difference then apply bilinearity

a(w,u1)a(w,u2)=0a(w,(u1u2))=0a(w, u 1)-a(w, u 2)=0 \rightarrow a(w,(u 1-u 2))=0

by positive definiteness, this is only possible if $u 1-u 2=0 \text { or } u 1=u 2$.

this is all inservice to show that this is as good as it is going to get and the finite dimensional denoted with superscript $(\cdot)^h$.

Finite Dimensional Subspace

If the exact solution is in there, what if we use the finite dimensional subspace

$V^{h} \subset V \text { and } \delta^{h} \subset \delta$ and get corresponding weight and trial functions $w^{h} \in V^{h} \text { and } u^{h} \in \delta^{h}$.

deal with essential boundary conditions by decomposing linear

uh=vh+gh where vhVh and ghδhu^{h}=v^{h}+g^{h} \text { where } v^{h} \in V^{h} \text { and } g^{h} \in \delta^{h}

Use interpolating shape functions so that $w^{h}=C{A} N{A}=\sum{A=1}^{n} C{A} N{A}=C{1} N{1}+C{2} N{2}+C{3} N{3}+\ldots+C{n} N_{n}$

so in terms of essential BC in nonzero and homogenous parts

uh=vh+gh=A=1ndANA+B=n+1n+mgBNBu^{h}=v^{h}+g^{h}=\sum_{A=1}^{n} d_{A} N_{A}+\sum_{B=n+1}^{n+m} g_{B} N_{B}

This is the abstract form $a(w,(v+g))=a(w, v)+a(w, g)$ so that

a(w,v)=(w,f)+(w,h)Γa(w,g)a(w, v)=(w, f)+(w, h)_{\Gamma}-a(w, g)

apply summations

a(A=1nCANA,B=1ndBNB)=(1nCANA,f)+(1nCANAh)Γa(A=1nCANA,B=n+1n+mgBNB)a\left(\sum_{A=1}^{n} C_{A} N_{A}, \sum_{B=1}^{n} d_{B} N_{B}\right)=\left(\sum_{1}^{n} C_{A} N_{A}, f\right)+\left(\sum_{1}^{n} C_{A} N_{A} h\right)_{\Gamma} -a\left(\sum_{A=1}^{n} C_{A} N_{A}, \sum_{B=n+1}^{n+m} g_{B} N_{B}\right)

where the summation can be pulled out $a\left(\sum{A=1}^{n} w{A}, v\right)=\sum{A=1}^{n} a\left(w{A}, v\right)$ and $a\left(\sum{A=1}^{n} w{A}, \sum{B=1}^{m} v{B}\right)=\sum{A=1}^{n} \sum{B=1}^{m} a\left(w{A}, v{B}\right)$ so that

A=1nB=1na(CANA,dBNB)=A=1n(CANA,f)+A=1n(CANA,h)ΓA=1nB=n+1n+ma(CANA,gBNB)\sum_{A=1}^{n} \sum_{B=1}^{n} a\left(C_{A} N_{A}, d_{B} N_{B}\right)=\sum_{A=1}^{n}\left(C_{A} N_{A}, f\right)+\sum_{A=1}^{n}\left(C_{A} N_{A}, h\right)_{\Gamma} -\sum_{A=1}^{n} \sum_{B=n+1}^{n+m} a\left(C_{A} N_{A}, g_{B} N_{B}\right)

Factor summation on arbitrary constant

A=1nCA[B=1na(NA,NB)dB(NA,f)(NA,h)Γ+B=n+1n+ma(NA,NB)gB]GA=0\sum_{A=1}^{n} C_{A} \overbrace{ \left[\sum_{B=1}^{n} a\left(N_{A}, N_{B}\right) d_{B}-\left(N_{A}, f\right)-\left(N_{A}, h\right)_{\Gamma}+\sum_{B=n+1}^{n+m} a\left(N_{A}, N_{B}\right) g_{B}\right]}^{G_A} =0

For all integer values A, this must be zero. This is only true by our finite element system

B=1na(NA,NB)dB=(NA,f)+(NA,h)ΓB=n+1n+ma(NA,NB)gB\sum_{B=1}^{n} a\left(N_{A}, N_{B}\right) d_{B}=\left(N_{A}, f\right)+\left(N_{A}, h\right)_{\Gamma}-\sum_{B=n+1}^{n+m} a\left(N_{A}, N_{B}\right) g_{B}

This defines the stiffness matrix $K{A B}=a\left(N{A}, N{B}\right)$ where the RHS is the forcing function $F{A}=\left(N{A}, f\right)+\left(N{A}, h\right){\Gamma}-\sum{B=n+1}^{n+m} a\left(N{A}, N{B}\right) g{B}$. Where n square matrix equation is $[K]{n x n}{d}{n x 1}={F}{n x 1}$.

Lets state the generic form of the problem $\textcolor{red}{\texttt{probs need to move this up to match overage order}}$

Given: $f: \Omega \rightarrow \mathbb{R}$ and known $g_i$

Find: $u:\overline{\Omega} \rightarrow \mathbb{R}$

approach

Let $D^j$ and $B^j$ be differential operators of order $m$, and $\Gammai$ are appropriate portions of the boundary $\Gamma$. At every point of the boundary, then there $m$ boundary conditions, corresponding to the $m$ directions, or $n{sd},$ spatial dimensions. In the 2D case of beam bending.

Given: $f: \Omega \rightarrow \mathbb{R}$ with constants $g_i,h_i$, where $i={1,2}$.

Find: $u:\overline{\Omega}\rightarrow \mathbb{R} $

  • such that $E I u_{x x x x}-f=0 \text { on } \Omega$

  • $\left.u\right|{\Gamma{u}}=g_{1}$ displacement BC

  • $\left.u{,x}\right|{\Gamma{\theta}}=g{1}$ rotation BC

  • $\left.EIu{,xx}\right|{\Gamma{M}}=h{1}$ moment BC

  • $\left.EIu{,xxx}\right|{\Gamma{Q}}=h{2}$ shear BC

We cannot find the strong form, the only equation which will but an approximation $u^a = u^h$

D2m(ua)f0D2m(ua)f=R,uaδaδD^{2 m}\left(u^{a}\right)-f \neq 0 \rightarrow D^{2 m}\left(u^{a}\right)-f=R, u^{a} \in \delta^{a} \subset \delta

Method of weighted residuals means that we are using an interval instead, so that:

Ωw(D2m(ua)f)dΩ=0wV\int_{\Omega} w\left(D^{2 m}\left(u^{a}\right)-f\right) d \Omega=0 \forall w \in V

We consolidate our search area so that weight function $w$ is also part of the finite dimensional space

Ωwa(D2m(ua)f)dΩ=0waVaV\int_{\Omega} w^{a}\left(D^{2 m}\left(u^{a}\right)-f\right) d \Omega=0 \quad \forall w^{a} \in \mathcal{V}^{a} \subset \mathcal{V}

When applying the method of weighted residuals, we need to use an even function of order $2m$

, so that we move half of them over onto a weight function. Method of weighted residuals reduces the order $\textcolor{red}{\texttt{by half}}$. Many ways to do this

Collocation

Force the residual to be zero at node points

Ωδ(xxA)unappealing part(D2m(ua)f)dΩ=0D2m(ua(xA)f)=0,A=1(1)n\int_{\Omega} \overbrace{\delta\left(x-x_{A}\right)}^\text{unappealing part} \left(D^{2 m}\left(u^{a}\right)-f\right) d \Omega=0 \rightarrow D^{2 m}\left(u^{a}\left(x_{A}\right)-f\right)=0, \quad A=1(1) n

Least Squares

Minimize the squared residual $\operatorname{Min} .\left(\int{\Omega}\left(D^{2 m}\left(u\left(x, d{A}\right)\right)-f\right)^{2} d \Omega\right)$, where $d_A$ are unknown parameters

dA(Ω(D2m(u(x,dA))f)2dΩ)=0,A=1(1)nΩ(D2m(u(x,dA))f)dA(D2m(u(x,dA))f)dΩ=0,A=1(1)n\frac{\partial}{\partial d_{A}}\left(\int_{\Omega}\left(D^{2 m}\left(u\left(x, d_{A}\right)\right)-f\right)^{2} d \Omega\right)=0, A=1(1) n \rightarrow \int_{\Omega} \frac{\partial\left(D^{2 m}\left(u\left(x, d_{A}\right)\right)-f\right)}{\partial d_{A}}\left(D^{2 m}\left(u\left(x, d_{A}\right)\right)-f\right) d \Omega=0, A=1(1) n

Galerkin Methods

These are all the other choices for weighting functions. The bubnov sub method is just where the weight function is an interpolating shape function and the non essential components use them as well $v_a$.

  • Step 1: weight and trail functions in terms of $N_A$

uh=vh+gh=dANA+gBNB=A=1ndANA+B=n+1n+mgBNBu^{h}=v^{h}+g^{h}=d_{A} N_{A}+g_{B} N_{B}=\sum_{A=1}^{n} d_{A} N_{A}+\sum_{B=n+1}^{n+m} g_{B} N_{B}
  • Step 2

  • Step 3
