calculus and analysis - Is it possible to give the closed-form of the stiffness matrix of triangular prism element?


Suppose the vertices of triangular prism are 1, 2, 3 (bottom triangle), 4, 5, 6 (top triangle), the coordinates of the vertices are $$ (x_i, y_i, z_i), i=1,2,3,4,5,6. $$


We can write the stiffness matrix of FEM of the triangular prism as follows:


$$ K_{i,j} = \int_0^1\int_0^{1-\xi}\int_{-1}^1 \begin{pmatrix}\frac{\eth N_i}{\eth\xi} & \frac{\eth N_i}{\eth\eta} & \frac{\eth N_i}{\eth\zeta}\end{pmatrix} (\textbf{J}^{-1})^T\textbf{J}^{-1}\begin{pmatrix}\frac{\eth N_j}{\eth\xi} \\ \frac{\eth N_j}{\eth\eta} \\ \frac{\eth N_j}{\eth\zeta}\end{pmatrix}det(\mathbf{J})d\xi d\eta d\zeta\,\\ i,j=1,2,...,6. $$



where


$$ \textbf{J}=\begin{pmatrix}\frac{\eth x}{\eth\xi} & \frac{\eth y}{\eth\xi} & \frac{\eth z}{\eth\xi} \\ \frac{\eth x}{\eth\eta} & \frac{\eth y}{\eth\eta} & \frac{\eth z}{\eth\eta} \\ \frac{\eth x}{\eth\zeta} & \frac{\eth y}{\eth\zeta} & \frac{\eth z}{\eth\zeta} \end{pmatrix} $$


and $$ \textbf{N}=\begin{pmatrix}N_1 & N_2 & N_3 & N_4 & N_5 & N_6\end{pmatrix}^T\\ \left\{\begin{array}{} N_1=\frac{1}{2}(1-\zeta)(1-\xi-\eta)\\ N_2=\frac{1}{2}\xi(1-\zeta)\\ N_3=\frac{1}{‌​2}\eta(1-\zeta)\\ N_4=\frac{1}{2}(1+\zeta)(1-\xi-‌​‌​\eta)\\ N_5=\frac{1}{2}\xi(1+\zeta)\\ N_6=\frac{1}{2}\eta(1+\zeta) \end{array} \right.\ \\ \left\{\begin{array}{} x=\mathbf{N^T}\mathbf{x_e}\\ y=\mathbf{N^T}\mathbf{y_e}\\ z=\mathbf{N^T}\mathbf{z_e}\\ \end{array} \right.\ \\ \left\{\begin{array}{} \mathbf{x_e}=\begin{pmatrix}x_1 & x_2 & x_3 & x_4 & x_5 & x_6\end{pmatrix}^T\\ \mathbf{y_e}=\begin{pmatrix}y_1 & y_2 & y_3 & y_4 & y_5 & y_6\end{pmatrix}^T\\ \mathbf{z_e}=\begin{pmatrix}z_1 & z_2 & z_3 & z_4 & z_5 & z_6\end{pmatrix}^T \end{array} \right.\ $$


Is it possible to give the closed-form of the integration by the powerful mathematica?


Thanks, Tang Laoya

front end - keyboard shortcut to invoke Insert new matrix

I frequently need to type in some matrices, and the menu command Insert > Table/Matrix > New... allows matrices with lines drawn between columns and rows, which is very helpful. I would like to make a keyboard shortcut for it, but cannot find the relevant frontend token command (4209405) for it. Since the FullForm[] and InputForm[] of matrices with lines drawn between rows and columns is the same as those without lines, it's hard to do this via 3rd party system-wide text expanders (e.g. autohotkey or atext on mac). How does one assign a keyboard shortcut for the menu item Insert > Table/Matrix > New... , preferably using only mathematica? Thanks! Answer In the MenuSetup.tr (for linux located in the $InstallationDirectory/SystemFiles/FrontEnd/TextResources/X/ directory), I changed the line MenuItem["&New...", "CreateGridBoxDialog"] to read MenuItem["&New...", "CreateGridBoxDialog", MenuKey["m", Modifiers-...

How to thread a list

I have data in format data = {{a1, a2}, {b1, b2}, {c1, c2}, {d1, d2}} Tableform: I want to thread it to : tdata = {{{a1, b1}, {a2, b2}}, {{a1, c1}, {a2, c2}}, {{a1, d1}, {a2, d2}}} Tableform: And I would like to do better then pseudofunction[n_] := Transpose[{data2[[1]], data2[[n]]}]; SetAttributes[pseudofunction, Listable]; Range[2, 4] // pseudofunction Here is my benchmark data, where data3 is normal sample of real data. data3 = Drop[ExcelWorkBook[[Column1 ;; Column4]], None, 1]; data2 = {a #, b #, c #, d #} & /@ Range[1, 10^5]; data = RandomReal[{0, 1}, {10^6, 4}]; Here is my benchmark code kptnw[list_] := Transpose[{Table[First@#, {Length@# - 1}], Rest@#}, {3, 1, 2}] &@list kptnw2[list_] := Transpose[{ConstantArray[First@#, Length@# - 1], Rest@#}, {3, 1, 2}] &@list OleksandrR[list_] := Flatten[Outer[List, List@First[list], Rest[list], 1], {{2}, {1, 4}}] paradox2[list_] := Partition[Riffle[list[[1]], #], 2] & /@ Drop[list, 1] RM[list_] := FoldList[Transpose[{First@li...

plotting - How to draw lines between specified dots on ListPlot?

I would like to create a plot where I have unconnected dots and some connected. So far, I have figured out how to draw the dots. My code is the following: ListPlot[{{1, 1}, {2, 2}, {3, 3}, {4, 4}, {1, 4}, {2, 5}, {3, 6}, {4, 7}, {1, 7}, {2, 8}, {3, 9}, {4, 10}, {1, 10}, {2, 11}, {3, 12}, {4,13}, {2.5, 7}}, Ticks -> {{1, 2, 3, 4}, None}, AxesStyle -> Thin, TicksStyle -> Directive[Black, Bold, 12], Mesh -> Full] I have thought using ListLinePlot command, but I don't know how to specify to the command to draw only selected lines between the dots. Do have any suggestions/hints on how to do that? Thank you. Answer One possibility would be to use Epilog with Line : ListPlot[ {{1, 1}, {2, 2}, {3, 3}, {4, 4}, {1, 4}, {2, 5}, {3, 6}, {4, 7}, {1, 7}, {2, 8}, {3, 9}, {4, 10}, {1, 10}, {2, 11}, {3, 12}, {4, 13}, {2.5, 7}}, Ticks -> {{1, 2, 3, 4}, None}, AxesStyle -> Thin, TicksStyle -> Directive[Black, Bold, 12], Mesh -> Full, Epilog -> { Line[ ...
