Abstract: SummaryAnalyzing Rayleigh waves in structures of a piezoelectric solid coated with a patterned metal film layer is of great importance in developing acoustic wave resonators. The ...

Abstract: To avoid the meshing difficulties of the finite-element method, the classical Rayleigh-Ritz method is combined with an additional optimization to analyze closed arbitrary dielectric ...

- This study investigates the solution of a boundary value problem using two numerical methods: the Rayleigh-Ritz method and the finite element method (FEM). The aim is to compare the performance of ...

We overview the main equations of the Rayleigh-Ritz variational method and discuss their connection with the problem of simultaneous diagonalization of two Hermitian matrices.

ABSTRACT: In the present study, vibration analysis of a three-layered cylindrical shell is performed whose inner and outer layers are composed of functionally graded materials whereas the middle one ...

This paper considers the sparse generalized eigenvalue problem (SGEP), which aims to find the leading eigenvector with at most $k$ nonzero entries. SGEP naturally ...
