Closed-form solutions for free vibration of rectangular FGM thin plates resting on elastic foundation

This article presents closed-form solutions for the frequency analysis of rectangular functionally graded material (FGM) thin plates subjected to initially in-plane loads and with an elastic foundation. Based on classical thin plate theory, the governing differential equations are derived using Hamilton's principle. A neutral surface is used to eliminate stretching-bending coupling in FGM plates on the basis of the assumption of constant Poisson's ratio. The resulting governing equation of FGM thin plates has the same form as homogeneous thin plates. The separation-of-variables method is adopted to obtain solutions for the free vibration problems of rectangular FGM thin plates with separable boundary conditions, including, for example, clamped plates. The obtained normal modes and frequencies are in elegant closed forms, and present formulations and solutions are validated by comparing present results with those in the literature and finite element method results obtained by the authors. A parameter study reveals the effects of the power law index n and aspect ratio a/b on frequencies.

Closed form solutions for free vibrations of rectangular Mindlin plates

A new two-eigenfunctions theory, using the amplitude deflection and the generalized curvature as two fundamental eigenfunctions, is proposed for the free vibration solutions of a rectangular Mindlin plate. The three classical eigenvalue differential equations of a Mindlin plate are reformulated to arrive at two new eigenvalue differential equations for the proposed theory. The closed form eigensolutions, which are solved from the two differential equations by means of the method of separation of variables are identical with those via Kirchhoff plate theory for thin plate, and can be employed to predict frequencies for any combinations of simply supported and clamped edge conditions. The free edges can also be dealt with if the other pair of opposite edges are simply supported. Some of the solutions were not available before. The frequency parameters agree closely with the available ones through pb-2 Rayleigh-Ritz method for different aspect ratios and relative thickness of plate.

Closed form solution of stress intensity factors for cracks emanating from surface semi-spherical cavity in finite body with energy release rate method

In this paper, a new semi-analytical and semi-engineering method of the closed form solution of stress intensity factors （SIFs） of cracks emanating from a surface semi-spherical cavity in a finite body is derived using the energy release rate theory. A mode of crack opening displacements of a normal slice is established, and the normal slice relevant functions are introduced. The proposed method is both effective and accurate for the problem of three-dimensional cracks emanating from a surface cavity. A series of useful results of SIFs are obtained.

Closed form solution and numerical analysis for Eshelby's elliptic inclusion in plane elasticity

This paper presents a closed form solution and numerical analysis for Es- helby＇s elliptic inclusion in an infinite plate. The complex variable method and the confor- real mapping technique are used. The continuity conditions for the traction and displace- ment along the interface in the physical plane are reduced to the similar conditions along the unit circle of the mapping plane. The properties of the complex potentials defined in the finite elliptic region are analyzed. From the continuity conditions, one can separate and obtain the relevant complex potentials defined in the inclusion and the matrix. From the obtained complex potentials, the dependence of the real strains and stresses in the inclusion from the assumed eigenstrains is evaluated. In addition, the stress distribution on the interface along the matrix side is evaluated. The results are obtained in the paper for the first time.

Elastic Deformation Analysis on MHD Viscous Dissipative Flow of Viscoelastic Fluid:An Exact Approach

This communication is devoted to analyze elastic deformation on electrically conducted viscoelastic fluid in the presence of viscous dissipation effects. Non-linear analysis is computed through exact solutions for velocity,temperature and concentration profiles. Special emphasis is provided for elastic deformation in the presence of magnetohydrodynamics effects. Concentration profile is discussed significantly in the presence constructive and destructive chemical reaction. Results are displayed through graphs and discussed for physical parameters that are used in present analysis. Notable findings include that temperature and thermal boundary layer thickness is an increasing function of Prandtl number and a decreasing function of elastic deformation. In addition, heat transfer rate is enhanced by increasing the conjugate parameter(γ) which measures the strength of surface heating.

Abundant analytical soliton solutions and different wave profiles to the Kudryashov-Sinelshchikov equation in mathematical physics

The generalized exponential rational function(GERF)method is used in this work to obtain analytic wave solutions to the Kudryashov-Sinelshchikov(K S)equation.The K S equation depicts the occurrence of pressure waves in mixtures of liquid-gas bubbles while accounting for thermal expansion and viscosity.By applying the GERF method to the KS equation,we obtain analytic solutions in terms of trigonometric,hyperbolic,and exponential functions,among others.These solutions include solitary wave solutions,dark-bright soliton solutions,singular soliton solutions,singular bell-shaped solutions,traveling wave solutions,rational form solutions,and periodic wave solutions.We discuss the two-dimensional and three-dimensional graphics of some obtained solutions under the accurate range space by selecting appropriate values for the involved arbitrary parameters to make this research more praiseworthy.The obtained analytic wave solutions specify the GERF method’s dependability,capability,trustworthiness,and efficiency.

Construction of multiple new analytical soliton solutions and various dynamical behaviors to the nonlinear convection-diffusion-reaction equation with power-law nonlinearity and density-dependent diffusion via Lie symmetry approach together with a couple of integration approaches

By taking advantage of three different computational analytical methods:the Lie symmetry analysis,the generalized Riccati equation mapping approach,and the modified Kudryashov approach,we construct multiple new analytical soliton solutions to the nonlinear convection-diffusion-reaction equation(NCDR)with power-law nonlinearity and density-dependent diffusion.Lie symmetry analysis is one of the pow-erful techniques that reduce the higher-order partial differential equation into an ordinary differential equation by reduction of independent variables.By the Lie group technique,we obtain one-parameter in-variant transformations,determining equations and corresponding vectors for the considered convection-diffusion-reaction equation.By treating the parameters of the governing equation as constants,the ap-plied methods yield a variety of new closed-form solutions,including inverse function solutions,periodic solutions,exponential function solutions,dark solitons,singular solitons,combo bright-singular solitons,and the combine of bright-dark solitons and dark-bright solitons.Moreover,using the Bäcklund transfor-mation of the generalized Riccati equation and modified Kudryashov method,we can construct multiple solitons and other solutions of the considered equation.The obtained new solutions of this work demon-strate that the used approaches are powerful and effective in dealing with nonlinear equations,and that these solutions are required to explain many biological and physical phenomena.Comparing our obtained solutions of this paper with the ones obtained in the literature,we see that our solutions are new and not reported elsewhere.These newly formed soliton solutions will be more beneficial in the various dis-ciplines of ocean engineering,plasma physics,and nonlinear sciences.

Fast Linearized Augmented Lagrangian Method for Euler’s Elastica Model

Recently,many variational models involving high order derivatives have been widely used in image processing,because they can reduce staircase effects during noise elimination.However,it is very challenging to construct efficient algo-rithms to obtain the minimizers of original high order functionals.In this paper,we propose a new linearized augmented Lagrangian method for Euler’s elastica image denoising model.We detail the procedures of finding the saddle-points of the aug-mented Lagrangian functional.Instead of solving associated linear systems by FFTor linear iterative methods(e.g.,the Gauss-Seidel method),we adopt a linearized strat-egy to get an iteration sequence so as to reduce computational cost.In addition,we give some simple complexity analysis for the proposed method.Experimental results with comparison to the previous method are supplied to demonstrate the efficiency of the proposed method,and indicate that such a linearized augmented Lagrangian method is more suitable to deal with large-sized images.
