Many problems arising in science and engineering require the numerical solution of a system of n nonlinear equations in n unknowns: (1) given F : $R^{n}$ $\rightarrow$ $R^{n}$ , find $x_{*}$ $\epsilon$ $R^{n}$ / such that F($x_{*}$) = 0. Nonlinear problems are generally solved by iteration. Davidson [3] and Broyden [1] introduced the methods which had led to a large amount of research and a class of algorithm. This work has been called by the quasi-Newton methods, secant updates, or modification methods. Newton's method is the classical method for the problem (1) and quasi-Newton methods have been proposed to circumvent computational disadvantages of Newton's method.(omitted)

Buckling analysis of thin compressed beam has been carried out. Pre-buckling and post-buckling are simulated by finite element method incorporating with the incremental nonlinear theory and the Newton-Raphson solution technique. In order to find the bifurcation point, the determinent of the stiffness matrix is calculated at every iteration procedure. For post-buckling analysis, a small perturbed initial guess is given along the eigenvector direction at the bifurcation point. Nonlinear elastic buckling and elastic-plastic buckling of cantilever beam are analyzed. The buckling load and buckled shape of the two models are compared.

W e performed a geometrical nonlinear dynamic analysis of laminated skew plates made of advanced composite materials (ACM ) based on the first-order shear deformation plate theory (FSDT). The Newmark method and Newton-Raphson iteration are used for the nonlinear dynamic solution. The effects of skew angles and layup sequences on the nonlinear dynamic response for various parameters are studied using a nonlinear dynamic finite element program developed for this study. The several numerical results were in good agreement with those reported by other investigators for square composite and skew plates, and the new results reported in this paper show the significant interactions between the skew angle and layup sequence in the skew laminate. Key observation points are discussed and a brief design guideline is given.

본 연구는 형상반복법과 수정 라그랑쥐 방법으로 사장교 케이블의 초기장력과 기준길이를 계산하였다. 사장교의 거더와 주탑은 3차원 frame 요소로, 케이블은 비선형 트러스요소와 Ernst의 케이블 요소로 이상화하였다. 본 연구의 유한요소법에 의한 케이블의 초기장력과 실무에서 사용하는 시산법에 의한 케이블의 장력을 비교한 결과, 전자의 경우가 후자의 경우보다 적음을 알 수 있었다. 케이블의 기준길이는 비선형 트러스요소를 사용한 해석결과와 Ernst의 케이블 요소를 사용한 해석결과를 비교하였으며 두 가지 해석결과가 거의 일치함을 알 수 있었다. 또한 기준길이는 초기장력값을 나타내는 단순교의 지간과 거의 일치함을 알 수 있었다. 따라서 케이블의 기준 길이는 본 연구로부터 얻은 초기장력을 가진 단순보의 호의 길이를 나타냄을 알 수 있었다.

In this paper, we consider the smoothing Newton method for the nonlinear complementarity problems with $P_0$-function. The proposed algorithm is based on a new smoothing function and it needs only to solve one linear system of equations and perform one line search per iteration. Under the condition that the solution set is nonempty and bounded, the proposed algorithm is proved to be convergent globally. Furthermore, the local superlinearly(quadratic) convergence is established under suitable conditions. Preliminary numerical results show that the proposed algorithm is very promising.

This paper concerns an algorithm that combines line search and trust region step for nonlinear optimization problems. Unlike traditional trust region methods, we incorporate the Armijo line search technique into trust region method to solve the subproblem. In addition, the subproblem is solved accurately, but instead solved by inaccurate method. If a trial step is not accepted, our algorithm performs the Armijo line search from the failed point to find a suitable steplength. At each iteration, the subproblem is solved only one time. In contrast to interior methods, the optimal solution is derived by iterating from outside of the feasible region. In numerical experiment, we apply the algorithm to nonlinear portfolio optimization problems, primary numerical results are presented.

In this paper we consider a periodic solution for nonlinear free vibration of conservative systems for thick circular sector slabs. In Energy Balance Method (EBM) contrary to the conventional methods, only one iteration leads to high accuracy of the solutions. The excellent agreement of the approximate frequencies and periodic solutions with the exact ones could be established. Some patterns are given to illustrate the effectiveness and convenience of the methodology. Comparing with numerical solutions shows that the energy balance method can converge to the numerical solutions very rapidly which are valid for a wide range of vibration amplitudes as indicated in this paper.

This paper presents a procedure to minimize the cost of materials of cable-stayed bridges with composite box girder and concrete tower. Two sets of iterations are included in the proposed procedure. The first set of iteration performs the structural analysis for a cable-stayed bridge. The second set of iteration performs the optimization process. The design is formulated as a general mathematical problem with the cost of the bridge as the objective function and bending forces, shear forces, fatigue stresses, buckling and deflection as constraints. The constraints are developed based on the Canadian National Standard CAN/CSA-S6-88. The finite element method is employed to perform the complicated nonlinear structural analysis of the cable-stayed bridges. The internal penalty function method is used in the optimization process. The limit states design method is used to determine the load capacity of the bridge. A computer program written in FORTRAN 77 is developed and its validity is verified by several practical-sized designs.

The gas spring is a hydropneumatic adjusting element, consisting of a pressure tube, a piston rod, a piston and a connection fitting. The gas spring is filled with compressed nitrogen within the cylinder. The filling pressure acts on both sides of the piston and because of area difference it produces an extension force. Therefore, a gas spring is similar in function compare to mechanical coil spring. Conversely, optimization is a process of finding the best set of parameters to reach a goal while not violating certain constraints. The AMESim software provides NLPQL (Nonlinear Programming by Quadratic Lagrangian) and GA (genetic algorithm) for optimization. The NLPQL method builds a quadratic approximation to the Lagrange function and linear approximations to all output constraints at each iteration, starting with the identity matrix for the Hessian of the Lagrangian, and gradually updating it using the BFGS method. On each iteration, a quadratic programming problem is solved to find an improved design until the final convergence to the optimum design. In this study, we conducted optimization design of the gas spring reaction force with NLPQL.

Buckling and post-buckling cases are often occurred in aorta artery because it affected by higher pressure. Also, its stability has a vital importance to humans and animals. The loss of stability in arteries may lead to arterial tortuosity and kinking. In this paper, post-buckling analysis of aorta artery is investigated under axial compression loads on the basis of Euler-Bernoulli beam theory by using finite element method. It is known that post-buckling problems are geometrically nonlinear problems. In the geometrically nonlinear model, the Von Karman nonlinear kinematic relationship is employed. Two types of support conditions for the aorta artery are considered. The considered non-linear problem is solved by using incremental displacement-based finite element method in conjunction with Newton-Raphson iteration method. The aorta artery is modeled as a cylindrical tube with different average diameters. In the numerical results, the effects of the geometry parameters of aorta artery on the post-buckling case are investigated in detail. Nonlinear deflections and critical buckling loads are obtained and discussed on the post-buckling case.
