Numerical investigation on MHD Jeffery-Hamel nanofluid flow with different nanoparticles using fuzzy extension of generalized dual parametric homotopy algorithm

This study considers an MHD Jeffery-Hamel nanofluid flow with distinct nanoparticles such as copper,Al_(2)O_(3)and SiO_(2)between two rigid non-parallel plane walls with the fuzzy extension of the generalized dual parametric homotopy algorithm.The nanofluids have been formulated to enhance the thermophysical characteristics of fluids,including thermal diffusivity,conductivity,convective heat transfer coefficients and viscosity.Due to the presence of distinct nanofluids,a change in the value of volume fraction occurs that influences the velocity profiles of the flow.The short value of nanoparticles volume fraction is considered an uncertain parameter and represented in a triangular fuzzy number range among[0.0,0.1,0.2].A novel generalized dual parametric homotopy algorithm with fuzzy extension is used here to study the fuzzy velocities at various channel positions.Finally,the effectiveness of the proposed approach has been demonstrated through a comparison with the available results in the crisp case.

Approximate homotopy similarity reduction for the generalized Kawahara equation via Lie symmetry method and direct method

This paper studies the generalized Kawahara equation in terms of the approximate homotopy symmetry method and the approximate homotopy direct method. Using both methods it obtains the similarity reduction solutions and similarity reduction equations of different orders, showing that the approximate homotopy direct method yields more general approximate similarity reductions than the approximate homotopy symmetry method. The homotopy series solutions to the generalized Kawahara equation are consequently derived.

Homotopy Analysis Method for Solving (2+1)-dimensional Navier-Stokes Equations with Perturbation Terms

In this paper Homotopy Analysis Method(HAM) is implemented for obtaining approximate solutions of(2+1)-dimensional Navier-Stokes equations with perturbation terms. The initial approximations are obtained using linear systems of the Navier-Stokes equations; by the iterations formula of HAM, the first approximation solutions and the second approximation solutions are successively obtained and Homotopy Perturbation Method(HPM) is also used to solve these equations; finally,approximate solutions by HAM of(2+1)-dimensional Navier-Stokes equations without perturbation terms and with perturbation terms are compared. Because of the freedom of choice the auxiliary parameter of HAM, the results demonstrate that the rapid convergence and the high accuracy of the HAM in solving Navier-Stokes equations; due to the effects of perturbation terms, the 3 rd-order approximation solutions by HAM and HPM have great fluctuation.

在上行多用户大规模多输入多输出(multiple input multiple output,MIMO)系统中,为了降低信号检测的计算复杂度,在传统的最小均方误差(minimum mean square error,MMSE)算法的基础上,提出一种基于Homotopy算法的低复杂度信号检测方法.在该方法中,通过对Homotopy方程的解向量采用逐级展开来逼近真实解向量,从而避免MMSE检测算法中的高阶矩阵的求逆运算,降低了信号检测的计算复杂度.仿真结果表明,最多需要对Homoto-py方程的解向量进行4阶展开,就可获得与MMSE检测算法几乎同样的误比特率(bit error rate,BER)性能,同时,其计算复杂度仅为O(K2),其中,K为小区用户数.

Nonlinear oscillations with parametric excitation solved by homotopy analysis method

An analytical technique, namely the homotopy analysis method （HAM）, is used to solve problems of nonlinear oscillations with parametric excitation. Unlike perturbation methods, HAM is not dependent on any small physical parameters at all, and thus valid for both weakly and strongly nonlinear problems. In addition, HAM is different from all other analytic techniques in providing a simple way to adjust and control convergence region of the series solution by means of an auxiliary parameter h. In the present paper, a periodic analytic approximations for nonlinear oscillations with parametric excitation are obtained by using HAM, and the results are validated by numerical simulations.

Improving convergence of incremental harmonic balance method using homotopy analysis method

We have deduced incremental harmonic balance an iteration scheme in the （IHB） method using the harmonic balance plus the Newton-Raphson method. Since the convergence of the iteration is dependent upon the initial values in the iteration, the convergent region is greatly restricted for some cases. In this contribution, in order to enlarge the convergent region of the IHB method, we constructed the zeroth-order deformation equation using the homotopy analysis method, in which the IHB method is employed to solve the deformation equation with an embedding parameter as the active increment. Taking the Duffing and the van der Pol equations as examples, we obtained the highly accurate solutions. Importantly, the presented approach renders a convenient way to control and adjust the convergence.

We present a new reliable analytical study for solving the discontinued problems arising in nanotechnology. Such problems are presented as nonlinear differential-difference equations. The proposed method is based on the Laplace trans- form with the homotopy analysis method （HAM）. This method is a powerful tool for solving a large amount of problems. This technique provides a series of functions which may converge to the exact solution of the problem. A good agreement between the obtained solution and some well-known results is obtained.

Application of the homotopy analysis method to nonlinear characteristics of a piezoelectric semiconductor fiber

Based on the nonlinear constitutive equation,a piezoelectric semiconductor(PSC)fiber under axial loads and Ohmic contact boundary conditions is investigated.The analytical solutions of electromechanical fields are derived by the homotopy analysis method(HAM),indicating that the HAM is efficient for the nonlinear analysis of PSC fibers,along with a rapid rate of convergence.Furthermore,the nonlinear characteristics of electromechanical fields are discussed through numerical results.It is shown that the asymmetrical distribution of electromechanical fields is obvious under a symmetrical load,and the piezoelectric effect is weakened by an applied electric field.With the increase in the initial carrier concentration,the electric potential decreases,and owing to the screen-ing effect of electrons,the distribution of electromechanical fields tends to be symmetrical.

Large deformation analysis of a cantilever beam made of axially functionally graded material by homotopy analysis method

Large deformation of a cantilever axially functionally graded (AFG) beam subject to a tip load is analytically studied using the homotopy analysis method (HAM). It is assumed that its Young’s modulus varies along the longitudinal direction according to a power law. Taking the solution of the corresponding homogeneous beam as the initial guess and obtaining a convergence region by adjusting an auxiliary parameter, the analytical expressions for large deformation of the AFG beam are provided. Results obtained by the HAM are compared with those obtained by the finite element method and those in the previous works to verify its validity. Good agreement is observed. A detailed parametric study is carried out. The results show that the axial material variation can greatly change the deformed configuration, which provides an approach to control and manage the deformation of beams. By tailoring the axial material distribution, a desired deformed configuration can be obtained for a specific load. The analytical solution presented herein can be a helpful tool for this procedure.

A NON-TRIVIAL PRODUCT OF FILTRATION s+6 IN THE STABLE HOMOTOPY GROUPS OF SPHERES

By a method improving that of [1], the authors prove the existence of a non-trivial product of filtration, s ＋ 6, in the stable homotopy groups of sphere, πt-6S, which is represented up to non-zero scalar by β^-s＋2ho（hmbn-1 -hnbm-1） ∈ ExtA^s＋6,t＋s（Zp, Zp） in the Adams spectral sequence, where p ≥ 7, n ≥ m ＋ 2 ≥ 5, q = 2（p- 1）, 0 ≤ s 〈 p - 2, t= （s ＋ 2 ＋ （s ＋ 2）p ＋ p^m ＋ p^n）q. The advantage of this method is to extend the range of s without much complicated argument as in [1].

Analytic homotopy solution of generalized three-dimensional channel flow due to uniform stretching of the plate

In this communication a generalized three- dimensional steady flow of a viscous fluid between two infinite parallel plates is considered. The flow is generated due to uniform stretching of the lower plate in x- and y-directions. It is assumed that the upper plate is uniformly porous and is subjected to constant injection. The governing system is fully coupled and nonlinear in nature. A complete analytic solution which is uniformly valid for all values of the dimensionless parameters β Re and λ is obtained by using a purely analytic technique, namely the homotopy analysis method. Also the effects of the parameters β Re and λ on the velocity field are discussed through graphs.
