A Family of Global Attractors for the Generalized Kirchhoff-Beam Equations

In this paper, we discuss the existence and uniqueness of global solutions, the existence of the family of global attractors and its dimension estimation for generalized Beam-Kirchhoff equation under initial conditions and boundary conditions, using the previous research results for reference. Firstly, the existence of bounded absorption set is proved by using a prior estimation, then the existence and uniqueness of the global solution of the problem is proved by using the classical Galerkin’s method. Finally, Housdorff dimension and fractal dimension of the family of global attractors are estimated by linear variational method and generalized Sobolev-Lieb-Thirring inequality.

AN EXISTENCE THEOREM OF POSITIVE SOLUTIONS FOR ELASTIC BEAM EQUATION WITH BOTH FIXED END-POINTS

By using the degree theory on cone an existence theorem of positive solution for a class of fourth-order two-point BVP's is obtained. This class of BVP's usually describes the deformation of the elastic beam with both fixed end-points.

Explicit frequency equations of free vibration of a nonlocal Timoshenko beam with surface effects

Considerations of nonlocal elasticity and surface effects in micro-and nanoscale beams are both important for the accurate prediction of natural frequency. In this study, the governing equation of a nonlocal Timoshenko beam with surface effects is established by taking into account three types of boundary conditions： hinged–hinged, clamped–clamped and clamped–hinged ends. For a hinged–hinged beam, an exact and explicit natural frequency equation is obtained. However, for clamped–clamped and clamped–hinged beams, the solutions of corresponding frequency equations must be determined numerically due to their transcendental nature. Hence, the Fredholm integral equation approach coupled with a curve fitting method is employed to derive the approximate fundamental frequency equations, which can predict the frequency values with high accuracy. In short,explicit frequency equations of the Timoshenko beam for three types of boundary conditions are proposed to exhibit directly the dependence of the natural frequency on the nonlocal elasticity, surface elasticity, residual surface stress, shear deformation and rotatory inertia, avoiding the complicated numerical computation.

One-dimensional dynamic equations of a piezoelectric semiconductor beam with a rectangular cross section and their application in static and dynamic characteristic analysis

Within the framework of continuum mechanics, the double power series ex- pansion technique is proposed, and a series of reduced one-dimensional （1D） equations for a piezoelectric semiconductor beam are obtained. These derived equations are universal, in which extension, flexure, and shear deformations are all included, and can be degen- erated to a number of special cases, e.g., extensional motion, coupled extensional and flexural motion with shear deformations, and elementary flexural motion without shear deformations. As a typical application, the extensional motion of a ZnO beam is analyzed sequentially. It is revealed that semi-conduction has a great effect on the performance of the piezoelectric semiconductor beam, including static deformations and dynamic be- haviors. A larger initial carrier density will evidently lead to a lower resonant frequency and a smaller displacement response, which is a little similar to the dissipative effect. Both the derived approximate equations and the corresponding qualitative analysis are general and widely applicable, which can clearly interpret the inner physical mechanism of the semiconductor in the piezoelectrics and provide theoretical guidance for further experimental design.

On Applications of Generalized Functions in the Discontinuous Beam Bending Differential Equations

This paper discusses the mathematical modeling for the mechanics of solid using the distribution theory of Schwartz to the beam bending differential Equations. This problem is solved by the use of generalized functions, among which is the well known Dirac delta function. The governing differential Equation is Euler-Bernoulli beams with jump discontinuities on displacements and rotations. Also, the governing differential Equations of a Timoshenko beam with jump discontinuities in slope, deflection, flexural stiffness, and shear stiffness are obtained in the space of generalized functions. The operator of one of the governing differential Equations changes so that for both Equations the Dirac Delta function and its first distributional derivative appear in the new force terms as we present the same in a Euler-Bernoulli beam. Examples are provided to illustrate the abstract theory. This research is useful to Mechanical Engineering, Ocean Engineering, Civil Engineering, and Aerospace Engineering.

A Random Attractor Family of the High Order Beam Equations with White Noise

In this paper, we studied a class of damped high order Beam equation stochas-tic dynamical systems with white noise. First, the Ornstein-Uhlenbeck process is used to transform the equation into a noiseless random equation with random variables as parameters. Secondly, by estimating the solution of the equation, we can obtain the bounded random absorption set. Finally, the isomorphism mapping method and compact embedding theorem are used to obtain the system. It is progressively compact, then we can prove the existence of ran-dom attractors.

Positive solutions of nonlinear elastic beam equations with a fixed end and a movable end

The existence of n positive solutions is studied for a class of fourth-order elastic beam equations where one end is fixed and other end is movable. Here, n is an arbitrary natural number. Our results show that the class of equations may have n positive solutions provided the “heights” of the nonlinear term are appropriate on some bounded sets.

In this paper, the Dirichlet boundary value problems of the nonlinear beam equation utt ＋ △^2u ＋ αu ＋ εφ（t）（u ＋ u^3） = 0 , α 〉 0 in the dimension one is considered, where u（t,x） and φ（t） are analytic quasi-periodic functions in t, and e is a small positive real-number parameter. It is proved that the above equation admits a small-amplitude quasi-periodic solution. The proof is based on an infinite dimensional KAM iteration procedure.

SOME MULTIPLICITY RESULTS FOR AN ELASTIC BEAM EQUATION AT RESONANCE

This paper deals with multiplicity results for nonlinear elastic equations of the typewheregi[0,1] X R R satisfies Caratheodory condition L2[0,1]. The solvability of this problem has been studied by several authors, but there isn't any multiplicity result until now to the author's knowledge. By combining the Lyapunov-Schmidt procedure with the technique of connected set, we establish several multiplicity results under suitable condition.

This paper investigates the boundary value problem for elastic beam equation of the formu″″（t） q（t）f（t, u（t）,u′（t）,u″（t）,u′″（t））, 0〈t〈1,with the boundary conditionsu=（0）=u′（1）=u″（0）=u′″（1）=0.The boundary conditions describe the deformation of an elastic beam simply supported at left and clamped at right by sliding clamps. By using Leray-Schauder nonlinear alternate, Leray-Schauder fixed point theorem and a fixed point theorem due to Avery and Peterson, we establish some results on the existence and multiplicity of positive solutions to the boundary value problem. Our results extend and improve some recent work in the literature.

Quasi-periodic Solutions of the General Nonlinear Beam Equations

In this paper, one-dimensional （1D） nonlinear beam equations of the form utt - uxx ＋ uxxxx ＋ mu = f （u） with Dirichlet boundary conditions are considered, where the nonlinearity f is an analytic, odd function and f（u） = O（u3）. It is proved that for all m ∈ （0, M＊] R （M＊ is a fixed large number）, but a set of small Lebesgue measure, the above equations admit small-amplitude quasi-periodic solutions corresponding to finite dimensional invariant tori for an associated infinite dimensional dynamical system. The proof is based on an infinite dimensional KAM theory and a partial Birkhoff normal form technique.

Sound field prediction of ultrasonic lithotripsy in water with spheroidal beam equations

With converged shock wave, extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy（ESWL） has become a preferable way to crush human calculi because of its advantages of efficiency and non-intrusion. Nonlinear spheroidal beam equations（SBE） are employed to illustrate the acoustic wave propagation for transducers with a wide aperture angle. To predict the acoustic field distribution precisely, boundary conditions are obtained for the SBE model of the monochromatic wave when the source is located on the focus of an ESWL transducer. Numerical results of the monochromatic wave propagation in water are analyzed and the influences of half-angle, fundamental frequency, and initial pressure are investigated. According to our results, with optimization of these factors, the pressure focal gain of ESWL can be enhanced and the effectiveness of treatment can be improved.

Global Attractor for a Non-Autonomous Beam Equation

This work studies the global attractor for the process generated by a non-autonomous beam equation utt+△2u+ηut-[β(t)+M(∫Ω|▽u(x,t)|2dx)] △u+g(u, t)=f (x,t) Based on a time-uniform priori estimate method, we first in the space H02(Ω) ×L2(Ω) establish a time-uniform priori estimate of the solution u to the equation, and conclude the existence of bounded absorbing set. When the external term f (x,t) is time-periodic, the continuous semigroup of solution is proved to possess a global attractor.

The initial boundary value problem for a class of high-order Beam equations with quasilinear and strongly damped terms is studied. Firstly, the existence and uniqueness of the global solution of the equation are proved by prior estimation and Galerkin finite element method. Then the bounded absorption set is obtained by prior estimation, and the family of global attractors for the high-order Kirchhoff-Beam equation is obtained. The Frechet differentiability of the solution semigroup is proved after the linearization of the equation, and the decay of the volume element of the linearization problem is further proved. Finally, the Hausdorff dimension and Fractal dimension of the family of global attractors are proved to be finite.

Propagations of Fresnel diffraction accelerating beam in Schrodinger equation with nonlocal nonlinearity

Accelerating beams have been the subject of extensive research in the last few decades because of their selfacceleration and diffraction-free propagation over several Rayleigh lengths.Here,we investigate the propagation dynamics of a Fresnel diffraction beam using the nonlocal nonlinear Schrodinger equation(NNLSE).When a nonlocal nonlinearity is introduced into the linear Schrodinger equation without invoking an external potential,the evolution behaviors of incident Fresnel diffraction beams are modulated regularly,and certain novel phenomena are observed.We show through numerical calculations,under varying degrees of nonlocality,that nonlocality significantly affects the evolution of Fresnel diffraction beams.Further,we briefly discuss the two-dimensional case as the equivalent of the product of two one-dimensional cases.At a critical point,the Airy-like intensity profile oscillates between the first and third quadrants,and the process repeats during propagation to yield an unusual oscillation.Our results are expected to contribute to the understanding of NNLSE and nonlinear optics.
