  2. Penalty method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Penalty_method

    In the above equations, (()) is the exterior penalty function while is the penalty coefficient. When the penalty coefficient is 0, f p = f . In each iteration of the method, we increase the penalty coefficient p {\displaystyle p} (e.g. by a factor of 10), solve the unconstrained problem and use the solution as the initial guess for the next ...

  3. Coefficient of restitution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coefficient_of_restitution

    The COR is a property of a pair of objects in a collision, not a single object. If a given object collides with two different objects, each collision has its own COR. When a single object is described as having a given coefficient of restitution, as if it were an intrinsic property without reference to a second object, some assumptions have been made – for example that the collision is with ...

  4. Constrained optimization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Constrained_optimization

    Many constrained optimization algorithms can be adapted to the unconstrained case, often via the use of a penalty method. However, search steps taken by the unconstrained method may be unacceptable for the constrained problem, leading to a lack of convergence. This is referred to as the Maratos effect. [3]

  5. Meshfree methods - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Meshfree_methods

    Several methods have been developed to impose the essential boundary conditions weakly, including Lagrange multipliers, Nitche's method, and the penalty method. As for quadrature , nodal integration is generally preferred which offers simplicity, efficiency, and keeps the meshfree method free of any mesh (as opposed to using Gauss quadrature ...

  6. Collocation method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Collocation_method

    In mathematics, a collocation method is a method for the numerical solution of ordinary differential equations, partial differential equations and integral equations.The idea is to choose a finite-dimensional space of candidate solutions (usually polynomials up to a certain degree) and a number of points in the domain (called collocation points), and to select that solution which satisfies the ...

  7. Barrier function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barrier_function

    [1] [2] Such functions are used to replace inequality constraints by a penalizing term in the objective function that is easier to handle. A barrier function is also called an interior penalty function , as it is a penalty function that forces the solution to remain within the interior of the feasible region.

  8. List of equations in classical mechanics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_equations_in...

    Classical mechanics is the branch of physics used to describe the motion of macroscopic objects. [1] It is the most familiar of the theories of physics. The concepts it covers, such as mass, acceleration, and force, are commonly used and known. [2] The subject is based upon a three-dimensional Euclidean space with fixed axes, called a frame of ...

  9. Discontinuous Galerkin method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Discontinuous_Galerkin_method

    In 2009, Liu and Yan first proposed the DDG method for solving diffusion equations. [1] [2] The advantages of this method compared with Discontinuous Galerkin method is that the direct discontinuous Galerkin method derives the numerical format by directly taking the numerical flux of the function and the first derivative term without ...
