Testing and Simulation of Multilayer Polyvinylidene Fluoride‐Based Piezoelectric Energy Harvester Devices

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
The study considers the use of polymer/dielectric‐based multilayers piezoelectric Energy Harvesters (EH) to produce an output voltage and current, by exploiting the mechanical energy provided by human organs movements. In particular, the heart motion is considered from the kinematic viewpoint, and a multiphysics theoretical model is developed to assess

On the contact domain method: a comparison of penalty and Lagrange multiplier implementations [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
This work focuses on the assessment of the relative performance of the so-called contact domain method, using either the Lagrange multiplier or the penalty strategies.

Variational Iteration Method for q-Difference Equations of Second Order

open access: yesJournal of Applied Mathematics, 2012
Recently, Liu extended He's variational iteration method to strongly nonlinear q-difference equations. In this study, the iteration formula and the Lagrange multiplier are given in a more accurate way.

Gait Analysis of Pak Biawak: A Necrobot Lizard Built using the Skeleton of an Asian Water Monitor (Varanus Salvator)

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Pak Biawak, a necrobot, embodies an unusual fusion of biology and robotics. Designed to repurpose natural structures after death, it challenges conventional boundaries between nature and engineering. Its movements are precise yet unsettling, raising questions about sustainability, ethics, and the untapped potential of biointegrated machines.

A Perspective on Interactive Theorem Provers in Physics

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Into an interactive theorem provers (ITPs), one can write mathematical definitions, theorems and proofs, and the correctness of those results is automatically checked. This perspective goes over the best usage of ITPs within physics and motivates the open‐source community run project PhysLean, the aim of which is to be a library for digitalized physics

Low‐Power Control Of Resistance Switching Transitions in First‐Order Memristors

open access: yesAdvanced Electronic Materials, EarlyView.
Joule losses are a serious concern in modern integrated circuit design. In this regard, minimizing the energy necessary for programming memristors should be handled with care. This manuscript presents an optimal control framework, allowing to derive energy‐efficient programming voltage protocols for resistance switching devices. Following this approach,

The Ritz method with Lagrange multipliers

open access: yes, 2013
We develop a general form of the Ritz method for trial functions that do not satisfy the essential boundary conditions. The idea is to treat the latter as variational constraints and remove them using the Lagrange multipliers. In multidimensional problems in addition to the trial functions boundary weight functions also have to be selected to ...

Eigenvalue approximation by the finite element method: the method of Lagrange multipliers [PDF]

open access: yesMathematics of Computation, 1979
The purpose of this paper is to investigate the application of the finite element method of Lagrange multipliers to the problem of approximating the eigenvalues of a selfadjoint elliptic operator satisfying Dirichlet boundary conditions. Although the Lagrange multiplier method is not a Rayleigh-Ritz-Galerkin approximation scheme, it is shown that at ...
