    MAT 3310 (2009-2010, Second Term)

    Suggested Solution for Assignment 2

    1. We formulate the problem


    Min (P ) = (4y1 + 4y2 )
    s.t.
    y12 + 4y22 = 1,

    (1)

    y1 0,

    (2)

    y2 0.

    (3)

    Define the Lagrange multiplier,


    L = (4y1 + 4y2 ) + (y12 + 4y22 1)
    The stationary point should satisfy
    L

    y1 = 4 + 2y1 = 0
    L
    y = 4 + 2y1 = 0

    L1
    2
    2
    = y1 + 4y2 1 = 0
    Solve the system, y1 =

    2 5
    5 ,

    y2 =

    5
    10 ,

    5.

    The maximum perimeter is P = 4y1 + 4y2 = 4

    2 5
    5

    (4)

    +4

    5
    10

    = 2 5.

    2. For point A (y1 , y2 , y3 ) on the plane, if the distance from the point P (1, 1, 1) to A is

    minimal, then the vector AP = (1 y1 , 1 y2 , 1 y3 ) must be multiple of the normal

    vector ~r = (1, 2, 3), so we have


    (
    (1 y1 ) : (1 y2 ) : (1 y3 ) = 1 : 2 : 3
    (5)
    y1 + 2y2 + 3y3 = 18
    Let 1 y1 = t, 1 y2 = 2t, 1 y3 = 3t, then y1 = 1 t, y2 = 1 2t, y3 = 1 3t, and
    25
    substitute it into y1 + 2y2 + 3y3 = 18, we get t = 76 , y1 = 13
    , y2 = 19
    7 , y3 = 7 ,
    q
    7
    ~ k = ( 6 )2 + ( 12 )2 + ( 18 )2 = 6 14 .
    the minimal distance is kAP

    3. (a) Let A = (1, 2, 3)T , Ax and ~y are projections of vector ~a = (1, 1, 1)T on the line
    y1 = y22 = y33 and its vertical line respectively, then
    ~a = Ax + ~y

    (6)

    (Ax) ~y = 0

    (7)

    Since x is a nonzero scalar, AT ~y = 0 by equation (7), and we can reformulate it into


    the following matrix form:


    I A
    ~y
    ~a
    =
    AT 0
    x
    0
    solve the system, we get ~y = ( 47 , 17 , 27 )T , x = 73 .
    the minimum distance from point (1, 1, 1) to the line is k~y k =

    21
    7 .

    (b) The projection matrix P onto the line is :

    1 2 3
    1
    2 4 6
    P = A(AT A)1 AT =
    14
    3 6 9
    (c) By the definition of P , P T = A(AT A)1 AT = P ;
    and P 2 = P P = A(AT A)1 AT A(AT A)1 AT = A(AT A)1 (AT A)(AT A)1 AT =
    A(AT A)1 AT = P .
    For any vector ~b,
    kP bk2 = (P b)T (P b) = bT P T P b = bT P P b = bT P b
    2

    k(I P )bk = kb P bk = (b P b) (b P b)
    = bT b 2bT P b + (P b)T (P b)
    2

    (8)
    (9)
    (10)

    = kbk 2b P b + kP bk

    (11)

    = kbk2 2kP bk2 + kP bk2

    (12)

    = kbk kP bk

    (13)

    The identity kP bk2 + k(I P )bk2 = kbk2 is thus proved.


    4. (a) At the equilibrium state where K~u = f~, Pmin is achieved.
    1
    Pmin = (K~u, ~u) (f~, ~u)
    2

    = (K~u, ~u) (K~u, ~u)

    The strain energy U ,

    U = (K~u, ~u) = Pmin

    (14)

    (16)

    By w = CA~u, K = AT CA,
    1
    Qmin = (C 1 w, w),
    2
    1
    = (A~u, CA~u)
    2
    1
    = (AT CA~u, ~u)
    2
    1
    = (K~u, ~u) = U
    2

    (17)
    (18)
    (19)
    (20)

    (b) At equilibrium,

    1
    1
    U = (K~u, ~u) = (f~, ~u)
    2
    2
    U is NOT equal to the external potential energy (f~, ~u)!
    If they are equal, then U = (f~, ~u) = 0, which means U = 21 (K~u, ~u) = 0 by (a).
    Since K is positive symmetric matrix, ~u = ~0 and f~ = K~u = ~0, which means the bar
    is not stretched, and there are no external force, it is impossible when the f~ is the
    gravitational forces on the masses.

    For fixed u and v, we can treat P (u + tv) as a quadratic function on t. The first
    variation P
    u is achieved at

    are u(x) = 1.5x2 + c1 x + 1. c1 is to be determined.


    We know u(x) that can minimize P (u) satisfies:

    for any candidate (u + tv), from (u + tv)00 (x) = 3, and u00 (x) = 3, we know v 00 (x) = 0,
    then v 0 (x) C, C is some constant. The above equation now become:
    0 + 2C(u(1) u(0)) = 0

    (30)

    u(1) = u(0) = 1

    (31)

    Substitute x = 1 into u(1) = 1.5 + c1 + 1 = 1, c1 = 1.5,


    and u(x) = 1.5x2 1.5x + 1.
