  2. 1. Nonlinear Beam Physics

    Author : Benjamin Folsom; Partikel- och kärnfysik; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; nonlinear dynamics; Beam dynamics; Accelerator Physics; space charge; Accelerator magnets; simulations multi-particle dynamics;

    Abstract : A condensed treatment of conventional beam physics (both linear and nonlinear) is given for the non-expert; this constitutes a minimum knowhow for constructing simulations of rudimentary beamlines. The criteria for an ideal nonlinear charged-particle simulation algorithm are then presented, leading to the derivation of a symplectic, explicit, Lorentz-covariant integrator. READ MORE

  4. 2. Beam Diagnostics and Dynamics in Nonlinear Fields

    Author : Jim Ögren; Roger Ruber; Volker Ziemann; Klaus Leifer; Stephen Peggs; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Beam diagnostics; Nonlinear beam dynamics; Accelerator physics;

    Abstract : Particle accelerators are indispensable tools for probing matter at the smallest scales and the improvements of such tools depend on the progress and understanding of accelerator physics. The Compact Linear Collider (CLIC) is a proposed, linear electron–­positron collider on the TeV-scale, based at CERN. READ MORE

  5. 3. Nonlinear dynamics of flexible structures using corotational beam elements

    Author : Thanh-Nam Le; Jean-Marc Battini; Reijo Kouhia; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; corotational method; nonlinear dynamics; large displacements; finite rotations; time stepping method; thin-walled cross-section; beam element;

    Abstract : The purpose of this thesis is to develop corotational beam elements for the nonlinear dynamic analyse of flexible beam structures. Whereas corotational beam elements in statics are well documented, the derivation of a corotational dynamic formulation is still an issue. READ MORE

  6. 4. Energy-momentum conserving time-stepping algorithms for nonlinear dynamics of planar and spatial Euler-Bernoulli/Timoshenko beams

    Author : Sophy Chhang; Jean-Marc Battini; Mohammed Hjiaj; Reijo Kouhia; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Nonlinear Dynamics; Energy-momentum conserving scheme; 2D co-rotational beam; Geometrically exact 3D Euler-Bernoulli beam; impact; Byggvetenskap; Civil and Architectural Engineering;

    Abstract : Large deformations of flexible beams can be described using either the co-rotational approach or the total Lagrangian formalism. The co-rotational method is an attractive approach to derive highly nonlinear beam elements because it combines accuracy with numerical efficiency. READ MORE

  7. 5. Corotational formulation for nonlinear analysis of flexible beam structures

    Author : Thanh Nam Le; Jean-Marc Battini; Jari Mäkinen; KTH; []
    Keywords : Corotational method; nonlinear dynamic analysis; beam element; large displacements; finite rotations; time stepping method; cubic interpolations;

    Abstract : Flexible beam structures are popular in civil and mechanical engineering. Many of these structures undergo large displacements and finite rotations, but with small deformations. Their dynamic behaviors are usually investigated using finite beam elements. A well known method to derive such beam elements is the corotational approach. READ MORE
