SOME BOUNDARY VALUE PROBLEMS FOR NONLINEAR DEGENERATE ELLIPTIC EQUATIONS OF SECOND ORDER

The present article deals with some boundary value problems for nonlinear elliptic equations with degenerate rank 0 including the oblique derivative problem. Firstly the formulation and estimates of solutions of the oblique derivative problem are given, and then by the above estimates and the method of parameter extension, the existence of solutions of the above problem is proved. In this article, the complex analytic method is used, namely the corresponding problem for degenerate elliptic complex equations of first order is firstly discussed, afterwards the above problem for the degenerate elliptic equations of second order is solved.

The proof uses a fixed point theorem in cone theory.

Newton-EGMSOR Methods for Solution of Second Order Two-Point Nonlinear Boundary Value Problems

The convergence results of block iterative schemes from the EG （Explicit Group） family have been shown to be one of efficient iterative methods in solving any linear systems generated from approximation equations. Apart from block iterative methods, the formulation of the MSOR （Modified Successive Over-Relaxation） method known as SOR method with red-black ordering strategy by using two accelerated parameters, ω and ω′, has also improved the convergence rate of the standard SOR method. Due to the effectiveness of these iterative methods, the primary goal of this paper is to examine the performance of the EG family without or with accelerated parameters in solving second order two-point nonlinear boundary value problems. In this work, the second order two-point nonlinear boundary value problems need to be discretized by using the second order central difference scheme in constructing a nonlinear finite difference approximation equation. Then this approximation equation leads to a nonlinear system. As well known that to linearize nonlinear systems, the Newton method has been proposed to transform the original system into the form of linear system. In addition to that, the basic formulation and implementation of 2 and 4-point EG iterative methods based on GS （Gauss-Seidel）, SOR and MSOR approaches, namely EGGS, EGSOR and EGMSOR respectively are also presented. Then, combinations between the EG family and Newton scheme are indicated as EGGS-Newton, EGSOR-Newton and EGMSOR-Newton methods respectively. For comparison purpose, several numerical experiments of three problems are conducted in examining the effectiveness of tested methods. Finally, it can be concluded that the 4-point EGMSOR-Newton method is more superior in accelerating the convergence rate compared with the tested methods.

Dirac method for nonlinear and non-homogenous boundary value problems of plates

The boundary value problem plays a crucial role in the analytical investigation of continuum dynamics. In this paper, an analytical method based on the Dirac operator to solve the nonlinear and non-homogeneous boundary value problem of rectangular plates is proposed. The key concept behind this method is to transform the nonlinear or non-homogeneous part on the boundary into a lateral force within the governing function by the Dirac operator, which linearizes and homogenizes the original boundary, allowing one to employ the modal superposition method for obtaining solutions to reconstructive governing equations. Once projected into the modal space, the harmonic balance method(HBM) is utilized to solve coupled ordinary differential equations(ODEs)of truncated systems with nonlinearity. To validate the convergence and accuracy of the proposed Dirac method, the results of typical examples, involving nonlinearly restricted boundaries, moment excitation, and displacement excitation, are compared with those of the differential quadrature element method(DQEM). The results demonstrate that when dealing with nonlinear boundaries, the Dirac method exhibits more excellent accuracy and convergence compared with the DQEM. However, when facing displacement excitation, there exist some discrepancies between the proposed approach and simulations;nevertheless, the proposed method still accurately predicts resonant frequencies while being uniquely capable of handling nonuniform displacement excitations. Overall, this methodology offers a convenient way for addressing nonlinear and non-homogenous plate boundaries.

A NECESSARY AND SUFFICIENT CONDITION FOR SINGULAR NONLINEAR SECOND-ORDER BOUNDARY VALUE PROBLEMS TO HAVE POSITIVE SOLUTIONS

In this paper the following result is obtained: Suppose f(x,u,v) is nonnegative, continuous in ( a, b)×R +×R +; f may be singular at x=a (and/or x=b ) and v=0; f is nondecreasing on u for each x,v, nonincreasing on v for each x,u; there exists a constant q∈(0,1) such that t qf(x,t -1 u,tu)f(x,u,u)λ qf(x,λ -1 u,λu),0<t<1<λ, u∈R +.
