The accuracy of our proposed method is verified by comparing it with a finite-difference method （FDM） for a homogeneous solid medium and a double layered solid medium with an inclined interface. The modeling results using the two methods are in good agreement with each other. Meanwhile, to show the algorithm capability, the suggested method is used to simulate the wave propagation in a layered medium with a topographic traction free surface. By introducing the EBE algorithm with an optimized tensor product technique, the proposed SEM is especially suitable for numerical simulation of wave propagations in complex models with irregularly free surfaces at a fast convergence rate, while keeping the advantage of the finite element method.展开更多

The system is modeled as a double Timoshenko beam system interconnected by discrete springs. Utilizing Chebyshev series expansion and meshing the system according to the locations of its connections, numerical results of the natural frequencies and mode shapes are obtained using only a few elements, and the results are validated by comparing them with the results of a finite-element method. Then the effects of the cable parameters and layout of connections on the natural frequencies and mode shapes of a fixed-pinned beam are studied. The results show that the modes of a beam-cable coupled system can be classified into two types, beam mode and cable mode, according to the dominant deformation. To avoid undesirable vibrations of the cable, its parameters should be controlled in a reasonable range, or the layout of the connections should be optimized.展开更多

Nevertheless, the conventional finite element, for its excellent adaptability to complex geometrical configuration, is the most common way of spatial discretization for the pore-pressure solution of ERDs now [1]. The spectral element method, by means of the spectral isoparametric transformation, surmounts the disadvantages of disposing with complex geometry.
