(2017-11-30)In order to find the first few unconstrained saddles of functionals with different types of variational structures, a new local minimax method (LMM), based on a dynamics of points on virtual geometric objects such as curves, ...

Nonlinear aeroelastic analysis of high aspect-ratio wings using the method of numerical continuation (Texas A&M University, 2006-08-16)This research explores the impact of kinematic structural nonlinearities on the dynamics of a highly deformable cantilevered wing. Two different theoretical formulations are presented and analysed for nonlinear behavior. ...

(2012-07-16)Variational structure plays an important role in critical point theory and methods. However many differential problems are non-variational i.e. they are not the Euler- Lagrange equations of any variational functionals, ...
