BOUNDARY INTEGRAL FORMULAS FOR ELASTIC PLANE PROBLEM OF EXTERIOR CIRCULAR DOMAIN

After the stress function and the normal derivative on the boundary for the plane problem of exterior circular domain are expanded into Laurent series, comparing them with the Laurent series of the complex stress function and making use of some formulas in Fourier series and the convolutions, the boundary integral formula of the stress function is derived further. Then the stress function can be obtained directly by the integration of the stress function and its normal derivative on the boundary. Some examples are given. It shows that the boundary integral formula of the stress function is convenient to be used for solving the elastic plane problem of exterior circular domain.

A New Analytical Approach for Solving Nonlinear Boundary Value Problems in Finite Domains

Based on the homotopy analysis method (HAM), we propose an analytical approach for solving the following type of nonlinear boundary value problems in finite domain. In framework of HAM a convenient way to adjust and control the convergence region and rate of convergence of the obtained series solutions, by defining the so-called control parameter h , is provided. This paper aims to propose an efficient way of finding the proper values of h.Such values of parameter can be determined at the any order of approximations of HAM series solutions by solving of a nonlinear polynomial equation. Some examples of nonlinear initial value problems in finite domain are used to illustrate the validity of the proposed approach. Numerical results confirm that obtained series solutions agree very well with the exact solutions.

Goldbach's Problem in the Matrix Ring over a Principal Ideal Domain

In this paper, we consider the Goldbach＇s problem for matrix rings, namely, we decompose an n × n （n 〉 1） matrix over a principal ideal domain R into a sum of two matrices in Mn,（R） with given determinants. We prove the following result： Let n 〉 1 be a natural number and A = （aij） be a matrix in Mn（R）. Define d（A） ：= g.c.d{aij}. Suppose that p and q are two elements in R. Then （1） If n 〉 1 is even, then A can be written as a sum of two matrices X, Y in Mn（R） with det（X） = p and det（Y） = q if and only if d（A） [ p - q; （2） If n 〉 1 is odd, then A can be written as a sum of two matrices X, Y in Mn（R） with det（X） = p and det（Y） = q if and only if d（A） ｜ p ＋ q. We apply the result to the matrices in Mn（Z） and Mn（Q[x]） and prove that if R = 7. or Q[x], then any nonzero matrix A in Mn（R） can be written as a sum of two matrices in Mn（R） with prime determinants.

Exact Time Domain Solutions of 1-D Transient Dynamic Piezoelectric Problems with Nonlinear Damper Boundary Conditions

Novel exact solutions of one-dimensional transient dynamic piezoelectric problems for thickness polarized layers and disks, or length polarized rods, are obtained. The solutions are derived using a time-domain Green’s function method that leads to an exact analytical recursive procedure which is applicable for a wide variety of boundary conditions including nonlinear cases. A nonlinear damper boundary condition is considered in more detail. The corresponding nonlinear relationship between stresses and velocities at a current time moment is used in the recursive procedure. In addition to the exact recursive procedure that is effective for calculations, some new practically important explicit exact solutions are presented. Several examples of the time behavior of the output electric potential difference are given to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed exact approach.

PoincaréProblem for Nonlinear Elliptic Equations of Second Order in Unbounded Domains

In [1], I. N. Vekua propose the Poincaré problem for some second order elliptic equations, but it can not be solved. In [2], the authors discussed the boundary value problem for nonlinear elliptic equations of second order in some bounded domains. In this article, the Poincaré boundary value problem for general nonlinear elliptic equations of second order in unbounded multiply connected domains have been completely investigated. We first provide the formulation of the above boundary value problem and corresponding modified well posed-ness. Next we obtain the representation theorem and a priori estimates of solutions for the modified problem. Finally by the above estimates of solutions and the Schauder fixed-point theorem, the solvability results of the above Poincaré problem for the nonlinear elliptic equations of second order can be obtained. The above problem possesses many applications in mechanics and physics and so on.

ANALYTIC BOUNDARY VALUE PROBLEMS ON CLASSICAL DOMAINS

In this paper analytic boundary value problems for some classical domains in Cn are developed by using the harmonic analysis due to L.K. Hua. First it is discussed for the version of one variable in order to induce the relation between the analytic boundary value problem and the decomposition of function space L2 on the boundary manifold. Then an easy example of several variables, the version of torus in C2, is stated. For the noncommutative classical group L1, the characteristic boundary of a kind of bounded symmetric domain in C4, the boundary behaviors of the Cauchy integral are obtained by using both the harmonic expansion and polar coordinate transformation. At last we obtain the conditions of solvability of Schwarz problem on L1, if so, the solution is given explicitly.

Finally, numerical examples indicate that the iterative algorithm is feasible and effective for the practical purpose.

General Boundary Value Problems for Nonlinear Uniformly Elliptic Equations in Multiply Connected Infinite Domains

This article discusses the general boundary value problem for the nonlinear uniformly elliptic equation of second order in D (0.1) and the boundary condition,(0.2) in a multiply connected infinite domain D with the boundary T. The above boundary value problem is called Problem G. Problem G extends the work [8] in which the equation (0.1) includes a nonlinear lower term and the boundary condition (0.2) is more general. If the complex equation (0.1) and the boundary condition (0.2) meet certain assumptions, some solvability results for Problem G can be obtained. By using reduction to absurdity, we first discuss a priori estimates of solutions and solvability for a modified problem. Then we present results on solvability of Problem G.

Moreover the error estimates of approximate solutions for the boundary value problem is also given. The boundary value problem possesses many applications in mechanics and physics etc., for instance from (5.114) and (5.115), Chapter VI, [1], we see that Problem A of (0.1) possesses the important application to the shell and elasticity.

A TIME DOMAIN BOUNDARY ELEMENT METHOD FOR WATER-SOLID IMPACT ANALYSIS

A reciprocal theorem of dynamics for potential flow problems is first derived by means of the Laplace transform in which the compressibility of water is taken into account. Based on this theorem, the corresponding time-space boundary integral equation: is obtained. Then, a set of time domain boundary element equations with recurrence form is immediately formulated through discretization in both time and boundary. After having carried out the numerical calculation two solutions are found in which a rigid semicircular cylinder and a rigid wedge with infinite length suffer normal impact on the surface of a half-space fluid. The results show that the present method is more efficient than the previous ones.

Relevance vector machine technique for the inverse scattering problem

A novel method based on the relevance vector machine（RVM） for the inverse scattering problem is presented in this paper.The nonlinearity and the ill-posedness inherent in this problem are simultaneously considered.The nonlinearity is embodied in the relation between the scattered field and the target property,which can be obtained through the RVM training process.Besides,rather than utilizing regularization,the ill-posed nature of the inversion is naturally accounted for because the RVM can produce a probabilistic output.Simulation results reveal that the proposed RVM-based approach can provide comparative performances in terms of accuracy,convergence,robustness,generalization,and improved performance in terms of sparse property in comparison with the support vector machine（SVM） based approach.

Computer Integration within Problem Solving Process

The complexity of current software tools increases with the complexity of problem solving tasks they are designed to assist and are mainly dedicated to computer educated people. On the other hand current computer technology is deeply involved in people’s everyday life. This gap deepens and stresses software technology and computer education. The purpose of this paper is to discuss the feasibility of a new computer based problem solving methodology based on software tools that can be manipulated through the use of natural language. By computational emancipation the natural language becomes a family of non-ambiguous languages. This means that every problem solver uses a non-ambiguous natural language, termed here as Domain Algorithmic Language, DAL. Here we show how to develop software tools dedicated to the problem domain and illustrate the methodology we propose with the software tools required by teaching high school algebra.
