L^P SOLUTION OF GENERAL MEAN-FIELD BSDES WITH CONTINUOUS COEFFICIENTS

In this paper we consider one dimensional mean-field backward stochastic differential equations(BSDEs)under weak assumptions on the coefficient.Unlike[3],the generator of our mean-field BSDEs depends not only on the solution(Y,Z)but also on the law PY of Y.The first part of the paper is devoted to the existence and uniqueness of solutions in Lp,1<p≤2,where the monotonicity conditions are satisfied.Next,we show that if the generator/is uniformly continuous in(μ,y,z),uniformly with respect to(t,ω) and if the terminal valueξbelongs to Lp(Ω,F,P)with 1<p≤2,the mean-field BSDE has a unique Lp solution.

On General Mller Transformation

We give a study on the general Moiler transformation and emphatically introduce its differential form. In this paper, a definition of acceleration is given in spacetime language and the inertial reference frame is also settled. With a discussion of the geodesic equations of motion, the differential form of the general MФller transformation at arbitrary direction is presented.

Well-posedness of two-phase local/nonlocal integral polar models for consistent axisymmetric bending of circular microplates

Previous studies have shown that Eringen’s differential nonlocal model would lead to the ill-posed mathematical formulation for axisymmetric bending of circular microplates.Based on the nonlocal integral models along the radial and circumferential directions,we propose nonlocal integral polar models in this work.The proposed strainand stress-driven two-phase nonlocal integral polar models are applied to model the axisymmetric bending of circular microplates.The governing differential equations and boundary conditions(BCs)as well as constitutive constraints are deduced.It is found that the purely strain-driven nonlocal integral polar model turns to a traditional nonlocal differential polar model if the constitutive constraints are neglected.Meanwhile,the purely strain-and stress-driven nonlocal integral polar models are ill-posed,because the total number of the differential orders of the governing equations is less than that of the BCs plus constitutive constraints.Several nominal variables are introduced to simplify the mathematical expression,and the general differential quadrature method(GDQM)is applied to obtain the numerical solutions.The results from the current models(CMs)are compared with the data in the literature.It is clearly established that the consistent softening and toughening effects can be obtained for the strain-and stress-driven local/nonlocal integral polar models,respectively.The proposed two-phase local/nonlocal integral polar models(TPNIPMs)may provide an efficient method to design and optimize the plate-like structures for microelectro-mechanical systems.

On the consistency of two-phase local/nonlocal piezoelectric integral model

In this paper,we propose general strain-and stress-driven two-phase local/nonlocal piezoelectric integral models,which can distinguish the difference of nonlocal effects on the elastic and piezoelectric behaviors of nanostructures.The nonlocal piezoelectric model is transformed from integral to an equivalent differential form with four constitutive boundary conditions due to the difficulty in solving intergro-differential equations directly.The nonlocal piezoelectric integral models are used to model the static bending of the Euler-Bernoulli piezoelectric beam on the assumption that the nonlocal elastic and piezoelectric parameters are coincident with each other.The governing differential equations as well as constitutive and standard boundary conditions are deduced.It is found that purely strain-and stress-driven nonlocal piezoelectric integral models are ill-posed,because the total number of differential orders for governing equations is less than that of boundary conditions.Meanwhile,the traditional nonlocal piezoelectric differential model would lead to inconsistent bending response for Euler-Bernoulli piezoelectric beam under different boundary and loading conditions.Several nominal variables are introduced to normalize the governing equations and boundary conditions,and the general differential quadrature method(GDQM)is used to obtain the numerical solutions.The results from current models are validated against results in the literature.It is clearly established that a consistent softening and toughening effects can be obtained for static bending of the Euler-Bernoulli beam based on the general strain-and stress-driven local/nonlocal piezoelectric integral models,respectively.

Bending and Buckling of Circular Sinusoidal Shear Deformation Microplates with Modified Couple Stress Theory

The modified couple stress theory(MCST)is applied to analyze axisymmetric bending and buckling behaviors of circular microplates with sinusoidal shear deformation theory.The differential governing equations and boundary conditions are derived through the principle of minimum total potential energy,and expressed in nominal form with the introduced nominal variables.With the application of generalized differential quadrature method(GDQM),both the differential governing equations and boundary conditions are expressed in discrete form,and a set of linear equations are obtained.The bending deflection can be obtained through solving the linear equations,while buckling loads can be determined through solving general eigenvalue problems.The influence of material length scale parameter and plate geometrical dimensions on the bending deflection and buckling loads of circular microplates is investigated numerically for different boundary conditions.
