Numerical analysis for viscoelastic fluid flow with distributed/variable order time fractional Maxwell constitutive models

Fractional calculus has been widely used to study the flow of viscoelastic fluids recently,and fractional differential equations have attracted a lot of attention.However,the research has shown that the fractional equation with constant order operators has certain limitations in characterizing some physical phenomena.In this paper,the viscoelastic fluid flow of generalized Maxwell fluids in an infinite straight pipe driven by a periodic pressure gradient is investigated systematically.Consider the complexity of the material structure and multi-scale effects in the viscoelastic fluid flow.The modified time fractional Maxwell models and the corresponding governing equations with distributed/variable order time fractional derivatives are proposed.Based on the L1-approximation formula of Caputo fractional derivatives,the implicit finite difference schemes for the distributed/variable order time fractional governing equations are presented,and the numerical solutions are derived.In order to test the correctness and availability of numerical schemes,two numerical examples are established to give the exact solutions.The comparisons between the numerical solutions and the exact solutions have been made,and their high consistency indicates that the present numerical methods are effective.Then,this paper analyzes the velocity distributions of the distributed/variable order fractional Maxwell governing equations under specific conditions,and discusses the effects of the weight coefficient(α)in distributed order time fractional derivatives,the orderα(r,t)in variable fractional order derivatives,the relaxation timeλ,and the frequencyωof the periodic pressure gradient on the fluid flow velocity.Finally,the flow rates of the distributed/variable order fractional Maxwell governing equations are also studied.

On the Variational Problems of the Functionals with Derivatives of Higher Orders and Undetermined Boundary

According to the necessary condition of the functional taking the extremum, that is its first variation is equal to zero, the variational problems of the functionals for the undetermined boundary in the calculus of variations are researched, the functionals depend on single argument, arbitrary unknown functions and their derivatives of higher orders. A new view point is posed and demonstrated, i.e. when the first variation of the functional is equal to zero, all the variational terms are not independent to each other, and at least one of them is equal to zero. Some theorems and corollaries of the variational problems of the functionals are obtained.

Catalytic Kinetic Determination of Micro Amounts of Oxalic Acid by Second-Order Derivative Oscillopolarography

It was found that micro amounts of oxalate showed a very strong catalytic effect on the slow reaction between K 2Cr 2O 7 and Orange Ⅳ in a diluted sulfuric acid medium in a water bath at 70 ℃ . Orange Ⅳ exhibited a sensitive second order derivative polarographic wave at -0 50 V( vs . SCE). This provides the basis for a sensitive and selective catalytic kinetic method for oxalate determination with second order derivative oscillopolarography. The effects of sulphuric acid, K 2Cr 2O 7, and orange Ⅳ concentrations, reaction temperature and reaction time were investigated. A calibration curve of oxalate in the range of 0 1-2 0 μg/mL was obtained by the fixed time procedure. The detection limit was 0 03 μg/ mL. The possible interference from co existing substances or ions was examined. The new method has a high sensitivity and a good selectivity compared to other existing methods for oxalic acid determination. It has been applied to the determination of micro amounts of oxalate in real urine samples with satisfactory results.

High Order ADER-IPDG Methods for the Unsteady Advection-Diffusion Equation

We present a high-order Galerkin method in both space and time for the 1D unsteady linear advection-diffusion equation. Three Interior Penalty Discontinuous Galerkin (IPDG) schemes are detailed for the space discretization, while the time integration is performed at the same order of accuracy thanks to an Arbitrary high order DERivatives (ADER) method. The orders of convergence of the three ADER-IPDG methods are carefully examined through numerical illustrations, showing that the approach is consistent, accurate, and efficient. The numerical results indicate that the symmetric version of IPDG is typically more accurate and more efficient compared to the other approaches.

Reflection of thermo-elastic wave in semiconductor nanostructures nonlocal porous medium

The current work is an extension of the nonlocal elasticity theory to fractional order thermo-elasticity in semiconducting nanostructure medium with voids.The analysis is made on the reflection phenomena in context of three-phase-lag thermo-elastic model.It is observed that,four-coupled longitudinal waves and an independent shear vertical wave exist in the medium which is dispersive in nature.It is seen that longitudinal waves are damped,and shear wave is un-damped when angular frequency is less than the cut-off frequency.The voids,thermal and non-local parameter affect the dilatational waves whereas shear wave is only depending upon non-local parameter.It is found that reflection coefficients are affected by nonlocal and fractional order parameters.Reflection coefficients are calculated analytically and computed numerically for a material,silicon and discussed graphically in details.The results for local(classical)theory are obtained as a special case.The study may be useful in semiconductor nanostructure,geology and seismology in addition to semiconductor nanostructure devices.

Research on Stick-Slip Vibration Suppression Method of Drill String Based on Machine Learning Optimization

During the drilling process,stick-slip vibration of the drill string is mainly caused by the nonlinear friction gen-erated by the contact between the drill bit and the rock.To eliminate the fatigue wear of downhole drilling tools caused by stick-slip vibrations,the Fractional-Order Proportional-Integral-Derivative(FOPID)controller is used to suppress stick-slip vibrations in the drill string.Although the FOPID controller can effectively suppress the drill string stick-slip vibration,its structure isflexible and parameter setting is complicated,so it needs to use the cor-responding machine learning algorithm for parameter optimization.Based on the principle of torsional vibration,a simplified model of multi-degree-of-freedom drill string is established and its block diagram is designed.The continuous nonlinear friction generated by cutting rock is described by the LuGre friction model.The adaptive learning strategy of genetic algorithm(GA),particle swarm optimization(PSO)and particle swarm optimization improved(IPSO)by arithmetic optimization(AOA)is used to optimize and adjust the controller parameters,and the drill string stick-slip vibration is suppressed to the greatest extent.The results show that:When slight drill string stick-slip vibration occurs,the FOPID controller optimized by machine learning algorithm has a good effect on suppressing drill string stick-slip vibration.However,the FOPID controller cannot get the drill string system which has fallen into serious stick-slip vibration(stuck pipe)out of trouble,and the machine learning algorithm is required to mark a large amount of data on adjacent Wells to train the model.Set a reasonable range of drilling parameters(weight on bit/drive torque)in advance to avoid severe stick-slip vibration(stuck pipe)in the drill string system.

In this paper, a fractional order proportional integral derivative （FOPID） controller for multiarea automatic generation control （AGC） scheme has been designed. FOPID controller has five parameters and provides two additional degrees of flexibility in comparison to a proportional integral derivative （PID） controller. The optimal values of parameters of FOPID controller have been determined using Big Bang Big Crunch （BBBC） search algorithm. The designed controller regulates real power output of generators to achieve the best dynamic response of frequency and tie-line power on a load perturbation. The complete scheme for designing of the controllers has been developed and demonstrated on multiarea deregulated power system. The performance of the designed FOPID controllers has been compared with the optimally tuned PID controllers. It is observed from the results that the FOPID controller shows a considerable improvement in the performance as compared to the conventional PID controller.
