Abstract: SummaryAnalyzing Rayleigh waves in structures of a piezoelectric solid coated with a patterned metal film layer is of great importance in developing acoustic wave resonators. The ...

Abstract: To avoid the meshing difficulties of the finite-element method, the classical Rayleigh-Ritz method is combined with an additional optimization to analyze closed arbitrary dielectric ...

ABSTRACT: In the present study, vibration analysis of a three-layered cylindrical shell is performed whose inner and outer layers are composed of functionally graded materials whereas the middle one ...

This paper considers the sparse generalized eigenvalue problem (SGEP), which aims to find the leading eigenvector with at most $k$ nonzero entries. SGEP naturally ...
