First kind integral equations for the numerical solution of the plane Dirichlet problem

Søren Christiansen (1989)

Aplikace matematiky

We present, in a uniform manner, several integral equations of the first kind for the solution of the two-dimensional interior Dirichlet boundary value problem. We apply a general numerical collocation method to the various equations, and thereby we compare the various integral equations, and recommend two of them. We give a survey of the various numerical methods, and present a simple method for the numerical solution of the recommended integral equations.

First order second moment analysis for stochastic interface problems based on low-rank approximation

Helmut Harbrecht, Jingzhi Li (2013)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis - Modélisation Mathématique et Analyse Numérique

In this paper, we propose a numerical method to solve stochastic elliptic interface problems with random interfaces. Shape calculus is first employed to derive the shape-Taylor expansion in the framework of the asymptotic perturbation approach. Given the mean field and the two-point correlation function of the random interface, we can thus quantify the mean field and the variance of the random solution in terms of certain orders of the perturbation amplitude by solving a deterministic elliptic interface...

First-order systems of linear partial differential equations: normal forms, canonical systems, transform methods

Heinz Toparkus (2014)

Annales Universitatis Paedagogicae Cracoviensis. Studia Mathematica

In this paper we consider first-order systems with constant coefficients for two real-valued functions of two real variables. This is both a problem in itself, as well as an alternative view of the classical linear partial differential equations of second order with constant coefficients. The classification of the systems is done using elementary methods of linear algebra. Each type presents its special canonical form in the associated characteristic coordinate system. Then you can formulate initial...

Fite and Kamenev type oscillation criteria for second order elliptic equations

Zhiting Xu (2007)

Annales Polonici Mathematici

Fite and Kamenev type oscillation criteria for the second order nonlinear damped elliptic differential equation i , j = 1 N D i [ a i j ( x ) D j y ] + i = 1 N b i ( x ) D i y + p ( x ) f ( y ) = 0 are obtained. Our results are extensions of those for ordinary differential equations and improve some known oscillation criteria in the literature. Several examples are given to show the significance of the results.

Flame Propagation through Large-Scale Vortical Flows: Effect of Equivalence Ratio

L. Kagan, G. Sivashinsky (2010)

Mathematical Modelling of Natural Phenomena

The present work is a continuation of previous studies of premixed gas flames spreading through a space-periodic array of large-scale vorticities, and is motivated by the experimentally known phenomenon of flame extinction by turbulence. The prior work dealt with the strongly non-stoichiometric limit where the reaction rate is controlled by a single (deficient) reactant. In the present study the discussion is extended over a physically more realistic formulation based on a bimolecular reaction...

Flaw identification in elastic solids: theory and experiments.

A. Gesualdo, F. Guarracino, V. Mallardo, V. Minutolo, L. Nunziante (1997)

Extracta Mathematicae

In this work the problem of identificating flaws or voids in elastic solids is addressed both from a theoretical and an experimental point of view. Following a so called inverse procedure, which is based on appropriately devised experiments and a particular bounding of the strain energy, a gap functional for flaw identification is proposed.

Flensted-Jensen's functions attached to the Landau problem on the hyperbolic disc

Zouhaïr Mouayn (2007)

Applications of Mathematics

We give an explicit expression of a two-parameter family of Flensted-Jensen’s functions Ψ μ , α on a concrete realization of the universal covering group of U ( 1 , 1 ) . We prove that these functions are, up to a phase factor, radial eigenfunctions of the Landau Hamiltonian on the hyperbolic disc with a magnetic field strength proportional to μ , and corresponding to the eigenvalue 4 α ( α - 1 ) .
