The completeness theorem of the eigenfunction systems for the product of two 2 × 2 symmetric operator matrices is proved. The result is applied to 4 × 4 infinite-dimensional Hamiltonian operators. A modified method of separation of variables is proposed for a separable Hamiltonian system. As an application of the theorem, the general solutions for the plate bending equation and the free vibration of rectangular thin plates are obtained. Finally, a numerical test is analysed to show the correctness of the results.

Then the incompleteness of the extended eigenfunction system in general sense is proved. So the completeness of the symplectic orthogonal system of the infinite-dimensional Hamiltonian operator of this kind of plate bending equation is proved. At last the general solution of the infinite dimensional Hamiltonian system is equivalent to the solution function system series expansion, so it gives to theoretical basis of the methods of separation of variables based on Hamiltonian system for this kind of equations.

Review of Computational Approaches to Optimization Problems in Inhomogeneous Rods and Plates

In this paper,we review computational approaches to optimization problems of inhomogeneous rods and plates.We consider both the optimization of eigenvalues and the localization of eigenfunctions.These problems are motivated by physical problems including the determination of the extremum of the fundamental vibration frequency and the localization of the vibration displacement.We demonstrate how an iterative rearrangement approach and a gradient descent approach with projection can successfully solve these optimization problems under different boundary conditions with different densities given.

The free vibration problem of rectangular thin plates is rewritten as a new upper triangular matrix differential system. For the associated operator matrix, we find that the two diagonal block operators are Hamiltonian. Moreover, the existence and completeness of normed symplectic orthogonal eigenfunction systems of these two block operators are demonstrated. Based on the completeness, the general solution of the free vibration of rectangular thin plates is given by double symplectie eigenfunction expansion method.

This paper deals with off-diagonal operator matrices and their applications in elasticity theory. Two kinds of completeness of the system of eigenvectors are proven, in terms of those of the compositions of two block operators in the off-diagonal operator matrices. Using these results, the double eigenfunction expansion method for solving upper triangular matrix differential systems is proposed. Moreover, we apply the method to the two-dimensional elasticity problem and the problem of bending of rectangular thin plates on elastic foundation.

The symplectic eigenfunction expansion theorem and its application to the plate bending equation

This paper deals with the bending problem of rectangular plates with two opposite edges simply supported. It is proved that there exists no normed symplectic orthogonal eigenfunction system for the associated infinite-dimensional Hamiltonian operator H and that the two block operators belonging to Hamiltonian operator H possess two normed symplectic orthogonal eigenfunction systems in some space. It is demonstrated by using the properties of the block operators that the above bending problem can be solved by the symplectic eigenfunction expansion theorem, thereby obtaining analytical solutions of rectangular plates with two opposite edges simply supported and the other two edges supported in any manner.

Moreover, the general solution to the above 2D problem is given by the eigenfunction expansion method.

Skeletons of 3D Surfaces Based on the Laplace-Beltrami Operator Eigenfunctions

In this work we describe the algorithms to construct the skeletons, simplified 1D representations for a 3D surface depicted by a mesh of points, given the respective eigenfunctions of the Discrete Laplace-Beltrami Operator (LBO). These functions are isometry invariant, so they are independent of the object’s representation including parameterization, spatial position and orientation. Several works have shown that these eigenfunctions provide topological and geometrical information of the surfaces of interest [1] [2]. We propose to make use of that information for the construction of a set of skeletons, associated to each eigenfunction, which can be used as a fingerprint for the surface of interest. The main goal is to develop a classification system based on these skeletons, instead of the surfaces, for the analysis of medical images, for instance.

PLANE INFINITE ANALYTICAL ELEMENT AND HAMILTONIAN SYSTEM

It is not convenient to solve those engineering problems defined in an infinite field by using FEM. An infinite area can be divided into a regular infinite external area and a finite internal area. The finite internal area was dealt with by the FEM and the regular infinite external area was settled in a polar coordinate. All governing equations were transformed into the Hamiltonian system. The methods of variable separation and eigenfunction expansion were used to derive the stiffness matrix of a new infinite analytical element.This new element, like a super finite element, can be combined with commonly used finite elements. The proposed method was verified by numerical case studies. The results show that the preparation work is very simple, the infinite analytical element has a high precision, and it can be used conveniently. The method can also be easily extended to a three-dimensional problem.

A Homogenized Function to Recover Wave Source by Solving a Small Scale Linear System of Differencing Equations

In order to recover unknown space-dependent function G(x)or unknown time-dependent function H(t)in the wave source F(x;t)=G(x)H(t),we develop a technique of homogenized function and differencing equations,which can significantly reduce the difficulty in the inverse wave source recovery problem,only needing to solve a few equations in the problem domain,since the initial condition/boundary conditions and a supplementary final time condition are satisfied automatically.As a consequence,the eigenfunctions are used to expand the trial solutions,and then a small scale linear system is solved to determine the expansion coefficients from the differencing equations.Because the ill-posedness of the inverse wave source problem is greatly reduced,the present method is accurate and stable against a large noise up to 50%,of which the numerical tests confirm the observation.

A NEW METHOD FOR ESTABLISHING PSEUDO ORTHOGONAL PROPERTIES OF EIGENFUNCTION EXPANSION FORM IN FRACTURE MECHANICS

A new and simple method is developed to establish the pseudo orthogonal properties (POP) of the eigenfunction expansion form (EEF) of crack-tip stress complex potential functions for cracked anisotropic and piezoelectric materials, respectively. Di?erent from previous research, the complex argument separation technique is not required so that cumbersome manipulations are avoided. Moreover, it is shown, di?erent from the previous research too, that the orthogonal properties of the material characteristic matrices A and B are no longer necessary in obtaining the POP of EEF in cracked piezoelectric materials. Of the greatest signi?cance is that the method presented in this paper can be widely extended to treat many kinds of problems concerning path- independent integrals with multi-variables.

New tomographic reconstruction technique based on Laplacian eigenfunction

This letter proposes a new tomographic reconstruction procedure based on the Laplacian eigenfunction(LEF) patterns, which are independent of the plasma cross-section and do not require the flux surface information. The process is benchmarked for the experimental data of Heliotron J plasma and the results are compared with the least-squares approximation by a Phillips–Tikhonov(PT)-type regularization, which is widely used as the standard technique for tomographic reconstruction. The reconstruction based on the LEF is found to be capable of determining the magnetic axis at different time locations efficiently in comparison with the PT-type regularization.

Structure of Hamiltonian Matrix and the Shape of Eigenfunctions：Nuclear Octupole Deformation Model

The structure of a Hamiltonian matrix for a quantum chaotic system, the nuclear octupole deformation model, has been discussed in detail. The distribution of the eigenfunctions of this system expanded by the eigenstates of a quantum integrable system is studied with the help of generalized Brillouin?Wigner perturbation theory. The results show that a significant randomness in this distribution can be observed when its classical counterpart is under the strong chaotic condition. The averaged shape of the eigenfunctions fits with the Gaussian distribution only when the effects of the symmetry have been removed.
