- Abstract
In this paper, a novel family of fourth-order accurate explicit time integration schemes is developed by combining the new time approximations and the explicit fourth-order Runge–Kutta (RK4) method. Inaccurate predictions due to the presence of excessive numerical dissipation are often observed in practical analyses of structural dynamics when the RK4 is employed for both displacement and velocity approximations. To remedy this, novel time approximations with adjustable algorithmic parameters are employed for the displacement vectors while the velocity vectors are approximated by using the RK4. For the complete elimination of numerical dissipation, algorithmic parameters are unconventionally determined by taking the determinant of the amplification matrix as unity. A set of algorithmic parameters obtained from this process makes the new schemes completely non-dissipative while keeping the computational cost the same as the RK4. Due to this improvement, the new schemes have enhanced total energy-conserving capabilities for nonlinear systems and give noticeably more accurate predictions in practical analyses. Until now, controllable numerical dissipation and fourth-order accuracy are not attained simultaneously in a unified set of time schemes. In the new schemes, however, a systematic way to adjust the level of numerical dissipation is also presented while attaining fourth-order accuracy. The numerical results of various test problems show that the new time schemes can provide more accurate predictions for nonlinear conservative dynamic problems than the existing time schemes.
