Shape analysis and damped oscillatory solutions for a class of nonlinear wave equation with quintic term

This paper aims at analyzing the shapes of the bounded traveling wave solu- tions for a class of nonlinear wave equation with a quintic term and obtaining its damped oscillatory solutions. The theory and method of planar dynamical systems are used to make a qualitative analysis to the planar dynamical system which the bounded traveling wave solutions of this equation correspond to. The shapes, existent number, and condi- tions are presented for all bounded traveling wave solutions. The bounded traveling wave solutions are obtained by the undetermined coefficients method according to their shapes, including exact expressions of bell and kink profile solitary wave solutions and approxi- mate expressions of damped oscillatory solutions. For the approximate damped oscillatory solution, using the homogenization principle, its error estimate is given by establishing the integral equation, which reflects the relation between the exact and approximate so- lutions. It can be seen that the error is infinitesimal decreasing in the exponential form.

Quadratic integrability of solutions based on a class of delayed systems

Some properties such as oscillation, stability, existence of periodic solutions and quadratic integrability of solutions based on a class of second order nonlinear delayed systems are analyzed by using the V-function, the Lyapunov functional or the Beuman-Bihari inequality, and some sufficient conditions based on those properties are given. Finally, the conclusions are applied to over-voltage models based on three-phase nonsynchronous closing of switches appearing in the power systems, the results in accord with the background physical meaning are obtained. And all the conditions of the conclusions are easy to validate, so the conclusions have definite theoretical meaning and are easy to apply in practice.

This paper deals with oscillatory /nonoscillatory behaviour of solutions of thirdorder nonlinear differential equations of the formwhere a,b,c E C([a,oo),R) such that a(t) does not change sign, b(t) 5 0, c(t) > 0,f∈C(R, R) such that (f(y)/y) ≥ β > 0 for y ≠ 0 and γ > 0 is a quotient of odd integers.It has been shown, under certain conditions on coefficient functions, that a solution of (1)and (2) which Las a zero is oscillatory and the nonoscillatory solutions of these equationstend to zero as t → ∞. The motivation for this work came from the observation that thewhere al b, c are constants such that b≤ 0, c > 0, has an oscillatory solution if and only ifand all nonoscillatory solutions of (3) tend to zero if and only if the equation has anoscillatory solution.

In this paper, we will study the oscillatory properties of the second order half-linear dynamic equations with distributed deviating arguments on time scales. We obtain several new sufficient conditions for the oscillation of all solutions of this equation. Our results not only unify the oscillation of second order nonlinear differential and difference equations but also can be applied to different types of time scales with sup T = ∞. Our results improve and extend some known results in the literature. Examples which dwell upon the importance of our results are also included.

On the contact width in generalized plain strain JKR model for isotropic solids

Adhesive contact model between an elastic cylinder and an elastic half space is studied in the present paper, in which an external pulling force is acted on the above cylinder with an arbitrary direction and the contact width is assumed to be asymmetric with respect to the structure. Solutions to the asymmetric model are obtained and the effect of the asymmetric contact width on the whole pulling process is mainly discussed. It is found that the smaller the absolute value of Dundurs＇ parameter 13 or the larger the pulling angle O, the more reasonable the symmetric model would be to approximate the asymmetric one.

Shape Analysis of Bounded Traveling Wave Solutions and Solution to the Generalized Whitham-Broer-Kaup Equation with Dissipation Terms

This paper deals with the problem of the bounded traveling wave solutions' shape and the solution to the generalized Whitham-Broer-Kaup equation with the dissipation terms which can be called WBK equation for short.The authors employ the theory and method of planar dynamical systems to make comprehensive qualitative analyses to the above equation satisfied by the horizontal velocity component u(ξ) in the traveling wave solution (u(ξ),H(ξ)),and then give its global phase portraits.The authors obtain the existent conditions and the number of the solutions by using the relations between the components u(ξ) and H(ξ) in the solutions.The authors study the dissipation effect on the solutions,find out a critical value r*,and prove that the traveling wave solution (u(ξ),H(ξ)) appears as a kink profile solitary wave if the dissipation effect is greater,i.e.,|r| ≥ r*,while it appears as a damped oscillatory wave if the dissipation effect is smaller,i.e.,|r| < r*.Two solitary wave solutions to the WBK equation without dissipation effect is also obtained.Based on the above discussion and according to the evolution relations of orbits corresponding to the component u(ξ) in the global phase portraits,the authors obtain all approximate damped oscillatory solutions (u(ξ),H(ξ)) under various conditions by using the undetermined coefficients method.Finally,the error between the approximate damped oscillatory solution and the exact solution is an infinitesimal decreasing exponentially.

Qualitative Analysis and Solutions of Bounded Traveling Wave for B-BBM Equation

In this paper, we apply the theory of planar dynamical systems to carry out qualitative analysis for the dynamical system corresponding to B-BBM equation, and obtain global phase portraits under various parameter conditions. Then, the relations between the behaviors of bounded traveling wave solutions and the dissipation coeffiicient μ are investigated. We find that a bounded traveling wave solution appears as a kink profile solitary wave solution when μ is more than the critical value obtained in this paper, while a bounded traveling wave solution appears as a damped oscillatory solution when μ is less than it. Furthermore, we explain the solitary wave solutions obtained in previous literature, and point out their positions in global phase portraits. In the meantime, approximate damped oscillatory solutions are given by means of undetermined coefficients method. Finally, based on integral equations that reflect the relations between the approximate damped oscillatory solutions and the implicit exact damped oscillatory solutions, error estimates for the approximate solutions are presented.
