We present a proof that, among all complex numbers, Duffin-Schaeffer's choice in the Neumann series expansion of the inverse of a frame operator has the best possible convergence rate.

The Neumann Expansion method has been used for evaluating the response variability of three dimensional truss structure resulting from the spatial variability of material properties with the aid of the finite element method, and in conjunction with the direct Monte Carlo simulation methods. The spatial variabilites are modeled as three-dimensional stochastic field. Yamazaki 〔1〕 has extended the Neumann Expansion method to the plane-strain problem to obtain the response variability of 2 dimensional stochastic systems. This paper presents the extension of the Neumann Expansion method to 3 dimensional stochastic systems. The results by the NEM are compared with those by the deterministic finite element analysis and by the direct Monte Carlo simulation method

This paper, the last part of these three companion papers treated the electromagnetic diffraction by a dielectric wedge, presents the correction to the physical optics approcomation by the sheet currents of the Neumann expansion. Those expansion coefficients obtained by solving dual series equation amenable to simple numerical calculation may provide the asymprotically corrected solution. The validity of this result, satisfying both the edge condition near the tip of the dielectric wedge and the boundary condition along dielectric interfaces, is assured by approach of the corrected diffraction pattern to that of a perfectly conducting wedge for large permittivity of dielectric wedge.

Electrical impedance tomography (EIT) problem with anisotropic anomalous region is formulated in a few different ways using boundary integral operators. The Frechet derivative of Neumann-to-Dirichlet map is computed also by using boundary integral operators and the boundary of the anomalous region is approximated by trigonometric expansion with Lagrangian basis. The numerical reconstruction is done in case that the conductivity of the anomalous region is isotropic.

Among various sensitivity evaluation techniques, semi-analytical method(SAM) is quite popular since this method is more advantageous than analytical method(AM) and global finite difference method(FDM). However, SAM reveals severe inaccuracy problem when relatively large rigid body motions are identified fur individual elements. Such errors result from the numerical differentiation of the pseudo load vector calculated by the finite difference scheme. In the present study, an iterative method combined with mode decomposition technique is proposed to compute reliable semi-analytical design sensitivities. The improvement of design sensitivities corresponding to the rigid body mode is evaluated by exact differentiation of the rigid body modes and the error of SAM caused by numerical difference scheme is alleviated by using a Von Neumann series approximation considering the higher order terms for the sensitivity derivatives.

In this paper, linear elastic isotropic structures under the effects of both stochastic operators and stochastic excitations are studied. The analysis utilizes the spectral stochastic finite elements (SSFEM) with its two main expansions namely; Neumann and Homogeneous Chaos expansions. The random excitation and the random operator fields are assumed to be second order stochastic processes. The formulations are obtained for the system solution of the two dimensional problems of plane strain and plate bending structures under stochastic loading and relevant rigidity using the previously mentioned expansions. Two finite element programs were developed to incorporate such formulations. Two illustrative examples are introduced: the first is a reinforced concrete culvert with stochastic rigidity subjected to a stochastic load where the culvert is modeled as plane strain problem. The second example is a simply supported square reinforced concrete slab subjected to out of plane loading in which the slab flexural rigidity and the applied load are considered stochastic. In each of the two examples, the first two statistical moments of displacement are evaluated using both expansions. The probability density function of the structure response of each problem is obtained using Homogeneous Chaos expansion.

This paper considers the solution of the stochastic differential equations (SDEs) with random operator and/or random excitation using the spectral SFEM. The random system parameters (involved in the operator) and the random excitations are modeled as second order stochastic processes defined only by their means and covariance functions. All random fields dealt with in this paper are continuous and do not have known explicit forms dependent on the spatial dimension. This fact makes the usage of the finite element (FE) analysis be difficult. Relying on the spectral properties of the covariance function, the Karhunen-Loeve expansion is used to represent these processes to overcome this difficulty. Then, a spectral approximation for the stochastic response (solution) of the SDE is obtained based on the implementation of the concept of generalized inverse defined by the Neumann expansion. This leads to an explicit expression for the solution process as a multivariate polynomial functional of a set of uncorrelated random variables that enables us to compute the statistical moments of the solution vector. To check the validity of this method, two applications are introduced which are, randomly loaded simply supported reinforced concrete beam and reinforced concrete cantilever beam with random bending rigidity. Finally, a more general application, randomly loaded simply supported reinforced concrete beam with random bending rigidity, is presented to illustrate the method.

현존하는 세장선 이론과는 아주 다르게 Kelvin 소오스와 그의 궤적 주위에 대한 점근전개를 행하여 전진 운동을 하는 세장체에 대한 공식을 유도하였다. 여기서 발전된 공식은 기본적으로 Neumann-Kelvin 문제의 Kernel함수에 대한 근사와 동등하게되었다. 경계치 문제는 현저하게 단순화되었으며 해는 선수 끝에서 시작하는 축차적분의 진행 절차에 따라 얻어졌다. 속도장과 압력분포는 2차원 속도 포텐시열의 미분에 의해 간단히 계산될 수 있었다. 이 방법은 비록 컴퓨터의 사용에는 Neumann-Kelvin문제처럼 많은 시간이 필요하게 되더라도 선체 주위의 유동장의 수치해석에 더욱 정확하리라는 가능성을 준다. 전진하는 진동 세장체의 문제에도 같은 방법이 유용하리라는 것을 또한 기대한다.

임의의 각을 갖는 쇄기형 유전체의 양 경계면에 E-편파된 입사시 전자파의 회절문제에서 쇄기형 유전체의 모서리 근방에서 정전기적 극한의 모서히 조건을 만족하는 해를 구하였다. 물리광학근사로 구한 회절계수를 유전체 경계면을 따라 분포한 Neumann 전개된 면전류로 교정하였다. 모서리 끝점에 분포한 다극선전원으로 교정된 회절계수에 비하여, 본 논문에서 구한 회절계수는 유전체 내부의 비유전율을 점차 크게 할 경우 좀 더 정확히 쇄기형 완전도체의 회절함수에 접근함을 보았다.
