With some assumptions, we have proved that the solution of the quadratic spline collocation for the nonlinear problem can be written as a series expansions in integer powers of the mesh-size parameter. This gives us a construction method for using Richardson’s extrapolation. When we have a set of approximate solution with different mesh-size parameter a solution with high accuracy can he obtained by Richardson’s extrapolation.展开更多

The finite cylindrical cavity expansion process begins with an elastic-plastic stage followed by a plastic stage. The elastic-plastic stage ends and the plastic stage starts when the plastic wave front reaches the lateral free boundary. Approximate solutions of radial stress on cavity wall are derived by using the Von-Mise yield criterion and Forrestal’s similarity transformation method. The effects of the lateral free boundary and finite radius on the radial stress on the cavity wall are discussed, and comparisons are also conducted with the finite cylindrical cavity expansion in incompressible elastic-plastic materials. Numerical results show that the lateral free boundary has significant influence on the cavity expansion process and the radial stress on the cavity wall of metal cylinder with a finite radius.展开更多

Two other explicit formulae which express the third and fourth kinds Chebyshev expansion coefficients of a general-order derivative of an infinitely differentiable function in terms of their original expansion coefficients are also given. Two new reduction formulae for summing some terminating hypergeometric functions of unit argument are deduced. As an application of how to use Chebyshev polynomials of the third and fourth kinds for solving high-order boundary value problems, two spectral Galerkin numerical solutions of a special linear twelfth-order boundary value problem are given.展开更多

In the first step for the given problem we have discretized the interval and replaced the differential equation by the Differential quadrature method based on Fourier expansion basis to obtain a system of ordinary differential equation (ODE) then we implement the numerical scheme by computer programing and perform numerical solution. Finally the validation of the present scheme is demonstrated by numerical example and compared with some existing numerical methods in literature. The method is analyzed for stability and convergence. It is found that the proposed numerical scheme produces a good result as compared to other researcher’s result and even generates a value at the nodes or mesh points that the results have not seen yet.展开更多

Then, under the context of a currently expanding Earth, we inferred the change rate of the Earth’s mean radius from the estimated net area changes. The results show that the total increases and decreases in the areas of different plates cannot be compensated. Specifically, the area of the Northern Hemisphere decreases while that of the Southern Hemisphere increases, but the net area of the solid Earth surface slightly increases in th computing period(0.01 Ma). For the latest NNRMORVEL56 plate motion model, the area of the Southern Hemisphere increases by 7802 km2 while the area of the Northern Hemisphere decreases by 7711 km^2. This indicates a net area increase of 91 km2 in the solid Earth surface corresponding to an expansion rate of 0.06 mm/a for the Earths mean radius.This result coincides with the slow rate of expansion derived from geodetic measurements and geophysical modeling.展开更多

To verify the method, wave problems on a series of beaches with different geometries are solved, and the errors of the method are analyzed. The calculation firmly confirms that the results will be more precise if we choose more rational points on the beach. The application of BCM, available for the problems with irregular domains and arbitrary boundary conditions, can effectively avoid complex calculation and programming.
