On Nonlocal Computation of Eigenfrequencies of Beams Using Finite Difference and Finite Element Methods

Résumé

In this paper, we show that two numerical methods, specifically the finite difference method and the finite element method applied to continuous beam dynamics problems, can be asymptotically investigated by some kind of enriched continuum approach (gradient elasticity or nonlocal elasticity). The analysis is restricted to the vibrations of elastic beams, and more specifically the computation of the natural frequencies for each numerical method. The analogy between the finite numerical approaches and the equivalent enriched continuum is demonstrated, using a continualization procedure, which converts the discrete numerical problem into a continuous one. It is shown that the finite element problem can be transformed into a system of finite difference equations. The convergence rate of the finite numerical approaches is quantified by an equivalent Rayleigh's quotient. We also present some exact analytical solutions for a first-order finite difference method, a higher-order finite difference method or a cubic Hermitian finite element, valid for arbitrary number of nodes or segments. The comparison between the exact numerical solution and the approximated nonlocal approaches shows the efficiency of the continualization methodology. These analogies between enriched continuum and finite numerical schemes provide a new attractive framework for potential applications of enriched continua in computational mechanics.
