POSITIVE SOLUTIONS FOR SOME 1-DIMENSIONAL BOUNDARY VALUE PROBLEMS OF LAPLACE-TYPE

This paper deals with the existence of triple positive solutions for the 1-dimensional equation of Laplace-type （φ（x′（t）））′＋q（t）f（t,x（t）,x′（t））=0,t∈（0,1）,subject to the following boundary condition：a1φ（x（0））-a2φ（x＇（0））=0,a3φ（x（1））＋a4φ（x＇（1））=0,where φ is an odd increasing homogeneous homeomorphism. By using a new fixed point theorem, sufficient conditions are obtained that guarantee the existence of at least three positive solu- tions. The emphasis here is that the nonlinear term f is involved with the first order derivative explicitly.

Numerical study of homogeneous–heterogeneous reactions on stagnation point flow of ferrofluid with non-linear slip condition

This study deals with the stagnation point flow of ferrofluid over a flat plate with non-linear slip boundary condition in the presence of homogeneous-heterogeneous reactions.Three kinds of ferroparticles,namely,magnetite(Fe_3O_4),cobalt ferrite(CoFe_2O_4) and manganese zinc ferrite(Mn-ZnFe_2O_4) are taken into account with water and kerosene as conventional base fluids.The developed model of homogeneous-heterogeneous reactions in boundary layer flow with equal and unequal diffusivities for reactant and autocatalysis is considered.The governing partial differential equations are converted into system of non-linear ordinary differential equations by mean of similarity transformations.These ordinary differential equations are integrated numerically using shooting method.The effects of pertinent parameters on velocity and concentration profiles are presented graphically and discussed.We found that in the presence of Fe_3O_4-kerosene and CoFe_2O_4-kerosene,velocity profiles increase for large values of α and β whereas there is a decrement in concentration profiles with increasing values of if and K_s.Furthermore,the comparison between non-magnetic(A1_2O_3) and magnetic Fe_3O_4 nanoparticles is given in tabular form.

Position optimization of particular solution sources for distributed source boundary point method by volume velocity-matching

Choosing particular solution source and its position have great influence on accu- racy of sound field prediction in distributed source boundary point method. An optimization method for determining the position of particular solution sources is proposed to get high accu- racy prediction result. In this method, tripole is chosen as the particular solution. The upper limit frequency of calculation is predicted by setting 1% volume velocity relative error limit using vibration velocity of structure surface. Then, the optimal position of particular solution sources, in which the relative error of volume velocity is minimum, is determined within the range of upper limit frequency by searching algorithm using volume velocity matching. The transfer matrix between pressure and surface volume velocity is constructed in the optimal position. After that, the sound radiation of structure is calculated by the matrix. The results of numerical simulation show that the calculation error is significantly reduced by the proposed method. When there are vibration velocity measurement errors, the calculation errors can be controlled within 5% by the method.

Arc-length technique for nonlinear finite element analysis

Nonlinear solution of reinforced concrete structures, particularly complete load-deflection response, requires tracing of the equilibrium path and proper treatment of the limit and bifurcation points. In this regard, ordinary solution techniques lead to instability near the limit points and also have problems in case of snap-through and snap-back. Thus they fail to predict the complete load-displacement response. The arc-length method serves the purpose well in principle, received wide acceptance in finite element analysis, and has been used extensively. However modifications to the basic idea are vital to meet the particular needs of the analysis. This paper reviews some of the recent developments of the method in the last two decades, with particular emphasis on nonlinear finite element analysis of reinforced concrete structures.

Wavy properties and analytical modeling of free-surface flows in the development of the multi-domain method

The wavy （oscillatory both in space and in time） properties of free-surface flows due to presence of floating bodies are analyzed within the framework of the potential-flow theory by assuming that the fluid is perfect and flow irrotational. A so-called new multi-domain method has been developed based on the fluid domain division by an analytical control surface surrounding bodies and the application of different methods adapted in the external and internal domains. In the analytical domain external to the control surface, the fundamental solution satisfying the linear boundary condition on the free surface associated with a point singularity （often called Green fimction and referred here as point solution） is applied to capture all wavy features of free-surface flows extending horizontally to infinity. Unlike classical studies in which the control surface is discretized, the unknown velocity potential and its normal derivatives are expressed by expansions of orthogonal elementary functions. The velocity potential associa- ted with each elementary distribution （elementary solutions） on the control surface can be obtained by performing multi-fold inte- grals in an analytical way. In the domain internal to the control surface containing the bodies, we could apply different methods like the Rankine source method based on the boundary integral equations for which the elementary solutions obtained in the external domain playing the role of Dirichlet-to-Neumarm operator close the problem.

Pressure transient behavior of a slanted well with an impermeable fault

Analytical solution is obtained for the pressure response of a slanted well in a slab reservoir with an impermeable fault. Based on the basic point source solution in an infinite space, the basic point source solution is obtained by using the mirror image principle. Wellbore pressure response of a slanted well is obtained by integration of the basic point source solution along the trajectory of a slanted well and the type curves are computed. The dimensionless bottom hole pressure and type curves are obtained and the sensitivities of related parameters are discussed. The model presented in this paper could be used for the well test analysis of a slanted well in a reservoir bounded by an impermeable fault.
