Abstract

The M-eigenvalue of elasticity M-tensors play important roles in nonlinear elastic material analysis. In this paper, we establish an upper bound and two sharp lower bounds for the minimum M-eigenvalue of elasticity M-tensors without irreducible conditions, which improve some existing results. Numerical examples are proposed to verify the efficiency of the obtained results.

Highlights

  • Tensor eigenvalue problems play an important role in numerical multilinear algebra [1,2,3,4,5,6,7], and they have a wide range in medical resonance [8], imaging spectral hypergraph theory [9], automatical control [10,11,12,13]

  • A fourth-order partially symmetric tensor is useful in nonlinear elastic material analysis [3,16,17,18,19,20,21,22,23,24,25,26,27]

  • Ostrosablin [16] first constructed a complete system of eigentensors for the fourth rank tensor of elastic modulus, and Nikabadze [18] generalized these results and constructed a full system of eigentensors for a tensor of any even rank, as well as a complete system of eigentensor-columns for a tensor-block matrix of any even rank [22,23]

Summary

Introduction

Tensor eigenvalue problems play an important role in numerical multilinear algebra [1,2,3,4,5,6,7], and they have a wide range in medical resonance [8], imaging spectral hypergraph theory [9], automatical control [10,11,12,13]. A fourth-order real tensor A = ( aijkl ) is called a partially symmetric tensor, denoted by. A fourth-order partially symmetric tensor with n = 2 or 3, called the elasticity tensor, can be used in the two/three-dimensional field equations for a homogeneous compressible nonlinearly elastic material for static problems without body forces [27]. Based on structural properties of elasticity M-tensors, He et al [26] proposed some bounds for the minimum M-eigenvalue under irreducible conditions. Irreducibility is a i,j∈ N,i 6= j relatively strict condition for elasticity M-tensor Inspired by these observations, we want to present sharp bounds for the minimum M-eigenvalue of elasticity M-tensors by describing eigenvectors precisely without irreducible conditions, which improve existing results in [26]. Numerical examples are proposed to verify the efficiency of the obtained results
