Each iteration of these methods consists of a prediction and a correction. The predictors are produced by inexact PPA steps. The new iterates are then updated by a correction using the PPA formula. We present two profit functions which serve two purposes: First we show that the profit functions are tight lower bounds of the improvements obtained in each iteration. Based on this conclusion we obtain the convergence inexactness restrictions for the prediction step. Second we show that the profit functions are quadratically dependent upon the step lengths, thus the optimal step lengths are obtained in the correction step. In the last part of the paper we compare the strengths of different methods based on their inexactness restrictions.展开更多

Buckling under axial compression represents one of the most hazardous failure modes for such structures. In this paper, the smeared stiffness method, which incorporates the effect of component torsion, is used to obtain the equivalent stiffness coefficients for composite lattice conical shells with triangular and hexagonal patterns. A unified framework based on the variational differential quadrature (VDQ) method is established, leveraging its suitability for asymptotic expansion to determine the critical buckling loads and the b-imperfection sensitivity parameter of lattice conical shells with axially varying stiffness due to rib layout. The influence of pre-buckling deformation is taken into account to enhance the accuracy of predictions on the linear buckling loads. The feasibility of the present equivalent continuum model is verified, and the differences in buckling behaviors for composite lattice conical shells with both triangular and hexagonal unit cells are numerically evaluated through the finite element (FE) simulations and the VDQ method.展开更多
