This paper presents an efficient improvement of the iterative eigenvalue calculation method of the AESOPS algorithm. The intuitively and heuristically approximated iterative eigenvalue calculation method of the AESOPS algorithm is transformed to the Second Order Newton Raphson Method which is generally used in numerical analysis. The equations of second order partial differentiation of external torque, terminal and internal voltages are derived from the original AESOPS algorithm. Therefore only a few calculation steps are added to transform the intuitively and heuristically approximated AESOPS algorithm to the Second Order Newton Raphson Method, while the merits of original algorithm are still preserved.

A study of free vibration of rectangular Mindlin plates is presented. The analysis is based on the Chebyshev pseudospectral method, which uses test functions that satisfy the boundary conditions as basis functions. The result shows that rapid convergence and accuracy as well as the conceptual simplicity are achieved when the pseudospectral method is applied to the solution of eigenvalue problems. Numerical examples of rectangular Mindlin plates with clamped and simply supported boundary conditions are provided for various aspect ratios and thickness-to length ratios.

This paper introduces an eigenvalue method of transforming the hyperbolic partial differential equations of a particular unsteady friction water hammer model into characteristic form. This method is based on the solution of the corresponding one-dimensional Riemann problem that transforms hyperbolic quasi-linear equations into ordinary differential equations along the characteristic directions, which in this case arises as the eigenvalues of the system. A mathematical justification and generalization of the eigenvalues method is provided and this approach is compared to the traditional characteristic method.

Since an eigenvalue problem in structural analysis has been recognized as an important process for the assessment of structural strength, it is usually to be carried out the eigenvalue analysis or buckling analysis of structures when the compression behabiour of the member is dorminant. In general, various variables involved in the eigenvalue problem have also shown their variability. So it is natural to apply the probabilistic analysis into such problem. Since the limit state equation for the eigenvalue analysis or buckling reliability analysis is expressed implicitly in terms of random variables involved, the probabilistic finite element method is combined with the conventional reliability method such as MVFOSM and AFOSM for the determination of probability of failure due to buckling. The accuracy of the results obtained by this method is compared with results from the Monte Carlo simulations. Importance sampling method is specially chosen for overcomming the difficulty in a large simulation number needed for appropriate accurate result. From the results of the case study, it is found that the method developed here has shown good performance for the calculation of probability of buckling failure and could be used for checking the safety of the calculation of probability of buckling failure and could be used for checking the safely of frame structure which might be collapsed by either yielding or buckling.

We introduce a new projector for accelerating convergence of a symmetric eigenvalue problem Ax = x, and devise a power/Lanczos hybrid algorithm. Acceleration can be achieved by removing the hard-to-annihilate nonsolution eigencomponents corresponding to the widespread eigenvalues with modulus close to 1, by estimating them accurately using the Lanczos method. However, the additional Lanczos results can be obtained without expensive matrix-vector multiplications but a very small amount of extra work, by utilizing simple power-Lanczos interconversion algorithms suggested. Numerical experiments are given at the end.

An eigenvalue analysis of the circular Mindlin plates with free boundary conditions is presented. The analysis is based on the Chebyshev-Fourier pseudospectral method. Even though the eigenvalues of lower vibration modes tend to convergence more slowly than those of higher vibration modes, the eigenvalues converge for sufficiently fine pseudospectral grid resolutions. The eigenvalues of the axisymmetric modes are computed separately. Numerical results are provided for different grid resolutions and for different thickness-to-radius ratios.

This paper presents an analysis of stochastic eigenvalue problem of plane bar structures. Particular attention is paid to the effect of spatial variations of the flexural properties of the structure on the first four eigenvalues. The problem of spatial variations of the structure properties and their effect on the first four eigenvalues is analyzed in detail. The stochastic eigenvalue problem was solved independently by stochastic finite element method (stochastic FEM) and Monte Carlo techniques. It was revealed that the spatial variations of the structural parameters along the structure may substantially affect the eigenvalues with quite wide gap between the two extreme cases of zero- and full-correlation. This is particularly evident for the multi-segment structures for which technology may dictate natural bounds of zero- and full-correlation cases.

Cooperative spectrum sensing can improve sensing reliability, compared with single node spectrum sensing. In addition, Eigenvalue-based spectrum sensing has also drawn a great attention due to its performance improvement over the energy detection method in which the more smoothing factor, the better performance is achieved. However, the more smoothing factor in Eignevalue-based spectrum sensing requires the more sensing time. Furthermore, more reporting time in cooperative sensing will be required as the number of nodes increases. Subsequently, we in this paper propose an Eigenvalue and superposition-based spectrum sensing where the reporting time is utilized so as to increase the number of smoothing factors for autocorrelation calculation. Simulation result demonstrates that the proposed scheme has better detection probability in both local as well as global detection while requiring less sensing time as compared with conventional Eigenvalue-based detection scheme.

Since the multiscale wavelet-based numerical methods allow effective adaptive analysis, they have become new analysis tools. However, the main applications of these methods have been mainly on elliptic problems, they are rarely used for eigenvalue analysis. The objective of this paper is to develop a new multiscale wavelet-based adaptive Galerkin method for eigenvalue analysis. To this end, we employ the hat interpolation wavelets as the basis functions of the finite-dimensional trial function space and formulate a multiresolution analysis approach using the multiscale wavelet-Galerkin method. It is then shown that this multiresolution formulation makes iterative eigensolvers very efficient. The intrinsic difference-checking nature of wavelets is shown to play a critical role in the adaptive analysis. The effectiveness of the present approach will be examined in terms of the total numbers of required nodes and CPU times.

In this paper we present a postprocessing scheme for the Raviart-Thomas mixed finite element approximation of the second order elliptic eigenvalue problem. This scheme is carried out by solving a primal source problem on a higher order space, and thereby can improve the convergence rate of the eigenfunction and eigenvalue approximations. It is also used to compute a posteriori error estimates which are asymptotically exact for the $L^2$ errors of the eigenfunctions. Some numerical results are provided to confirm the theoretical results.
