Formation of a nontrivial finite-time stable attractor in a class of polyhedral sweeping processes with periodic input

We consider a differential inclusion known as a polyhedral sweeping process. The general sweeping process was introduced by J.-J. Moreau as a modeling framework for quasistatic deformations of elastoplastic bodies, and a polyhedral sweeping process …

Finite-time stability of polyhedral sweeping processes with application to elastoplastic systems

We use the ideas of Adly-Attouch-Cabot [Adv. Mech. Math., 12, Springer, 2006] on finite-time stabilization of dry friction oscillators to establish a theorem on finite-time stabilization of differential inclusions with a moving polyhedral constraint …

Stabilization of the response of cyclically loaded lattice spring models with plasticity

This paper develops an analytic framework to design both stress-controlled and displacement-controlled $T$-periodic loadings which make the quasistatic evolution of a one-dimensional network of elastoplastic springs converging to a unique periodic …

One-period stability analysis of polygonal sweeping processes with application to an elastoplastic model

Structurally stable families of periodic solutions in sweeping processes of networks of elastoplastic springs

Networks of elastoplastic springs (elastoplastic systems) have been linked to differential equations with polyhedral constraints in the pioneering paper by Moreau (1974). Periodic loading of an elastoplastic system, therefore, corresponds to a …
