A generalized variational principle in b-metric spaces [PDF]

open access: yesLe Matematiche, 2014
In this paper we establish and prove a generalized variational principle for b-metric spaces. As a consequence, we obtain a weak Zhong-type variational principle in b-metric spaces.

Variational Integrators [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
Variational integrators are a class of discretizations for mechanical systems which are derived by discretizing Hamilton's principle of stationary action.

Relative Entropy and Variational Properties of Generalized Gibbsian Measures [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
We study the relative entropy density for generalized Gibbs measures. We first show its existence and obtain a familiar expression in terms of entropy and relative energy for a class of “almost Gibbsian measures” (almost sure continuity of conditional ...

On the structure of minimizers of causal variational principles in the non-compact and equivariant settings [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
We derive the Euler-Lagrange equations for minimizers of causal variational principles in the non-compact setting with constraints, possibly prescribing symmetries.

A generalized form of Ekeland’s variational principle

open access: yesAnalele Stiintifice ale Universitatii Ovidius Constanta: Seria Matematica, 2012
In this paper we prove a generalized version of the Ekeland variational principle, which is a common generalization of Zhong variational principle and Borwein Preiss Variational principle.

Turbulent flows in channels and pipes

open access: yesVietnam Journal of Mechanics, 2007
A variational principle for channel and pipe flows of incompressible viscous fluid is proposed. For low Reynolds numbers this variational principle reduces to the principle of minimum dissipation. For high Reynolds numbers it enables one to calculate the

Gaussian time-dependent variational principle for the finite-temperature anharmonic lattice dynamics

open access: yesPhysical Review Research, 2021
The anharmonic lattice is a representative example of an interacting, bosonic, many-body system. The self-consistent harmonic approximation has proven versatile for the study of the equilibrium properties of anharmonic lattices.

Dynamical system of optical soliton parameters by variational principle (super-Gaussian and super-sech pulses)

open access: yesJournal of the European Optical Society-Rapid Publications, 2023
The parameter dynamics of super-sech and super-Gaussian pulses for the perturbed nonlinear Schrödinger’s equation with power-law nonlinearity is obtained in this article. The variational principle successfully recovers this dynamical system.

Variational Time Integrators in Computational Solid Mechanics [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
This thesis develops the theory and implementation of variational integrators for computational solid mechanics problems, and to some extent, for fluid mechanics problems as well.

Remarks on some variants of minimal point theorem and Ekeland variational principle with applications

open access: yesDemonstratio Mathematica, 2022
This paper presents some variants of minimal point theorem together with corresponding variants of Ekeland variational principle. In the second part of this article, there is a discussion on Ekeland variational principle and minimal point theorem ...
