Fractional Order Thermoelastic Deflection In A Thin Circular Plate, J. J. Tripathi, S. D. Warbhe, K. C. Deshmukh, J. Verma

Applications and Applied Mathematics: An International Journal (AAM)

In this work, a quasi-static uncoupled theory of thermoelasticity based on time fractional heat conduction equation is used to model a thin circular plate, whose lower surface is maintained at zero temperature whereas the upper surface is insulated. The edge of the circular plate is fixed and clamped. Integral transform technique is used to derive the analytical solutions in the physi-cal domain. The numerical results for temperature distributions and thermal deflection are com-puted and represented graphically for Copper material.


Numerical Experiments For Finding Roots Of The Polynomials In Chebyshev Basis, M. S. Solary Dec 2017

Numerical Experiments For Finding Roots Of The Polynomials In Chebyshev Basis, M. S. Solary

Applications and Applied Mathematics: An International Journal (AAM)

Root finding for a function or a polynomial that is smooth on the interval [a; b], but otherwise arbitrary, is done by the following procedure. First, approximate it by a Chebyshev polynomial series. Second, find the zeros of the truncated Chebyshev series. Finding roots of the Chebyshev polynomial is done by eigenvalues of a nXn matrix such as companion or comrade matrices. There are some methods for finding eigenvalues of these matrices such as companion matrix and chasing procedures.We derive another algorithm by second kind of Chebyshev polynomials.We computed the numerical results of these methods for some special and ill-conditioned …

Effective Modified Hybrid Conjugate Gradient Method For Large-Scale Symmetric Nonlinear Equations, Jamilu Sabi'u, Mohammed Y. Waziri

Applications and Applied Mathematics: An International Journal (AAM)

In this paper, we proposed hybrid conjugate gradient method using the convex combination of FR and PRP conjugate gradient methods for solving Large-scale symmetric nonlinear equations via Andrei approach with nonmonotone line search. Logical formula for obtaining the convex parameter using Newton and our proposed directions was also proposed. Under appropriate conditions global convergence was established. Reported numerical results show that the proposed method is very promising.


Thermoelastic Analysis Of A Nonhomogeneous Hollow Cylinder With Internal Heat Generation, V. R. Manthena, N. K. Lamba, G. D. Kedar Dec 2017

Thermoelastic Analysis Of A Nonhomogeneous Hollow Cylinder With Internal Heat Generation, V. R. Manthena, N. K. Lamba, G. D. Kedar

Applications and Applied Mathematics: An International Journal (AAM)

In the present paper, we have determined the heat conduction and thermal stresses of a hollow cylinder with inhomogeneous material properties and internal heat generation. All the material properties except Poisson’s ratio and density are assumed to be given by a simple power law in axial direction. We have obtained the solution of the two dimensional heat conduction equation in the transient state in terms of Bessel’s and trigonometric functions. The influence of inhomogeneity on the thermal and mechanical behavior is examined. Numerical computations are carried out for both homogeneous and nonhomogeneous cylinders and are represented graphically.

Mathematical Description And Mechanistic Reasoning: A Pathway Toward Stem Integration, Paul J. Weinberg Jul 2017

Mathematical Description And Mechanistic Reasoning: A Pathway Toward Stem Integration, Paul J. Weinberg

Journal of Pre-College Engineering Education Research (J-PEER)

Because reasoning about mechanism is critical to disciplined inquiry in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) domains, this study focuses on ways to support the development of this form of reasoning. This study attends to how mechanistic reasoning is constituted through mathematical description. This study draws upon Smith’s (2007) characterization of mathematical description of scientific phenomena as ‘‘bootstrapping,’’ where negotiating the relationship between target phenomena and represented relations is fundamental to learning. In addition, the development of mathematical representation presents a viable pathway towards STEM integration. In this study, participants responded to an assessment of mechanistic reasoning while cognitive interviews …


A Novel Approach For Solving Volterra Integral Equations Involving Local Fractional Operator, Hassan K. Jassim Jun 2017

A Novel Approach For Solving Volterra Integral Equations Involving Local Fractional Operator, Hassan K. Jassim

Applications and Applied Mathematics: An International Journal (AAM)

The paper presents an approximation method called local fractional variational iteration method (LFVIM) for solving the linear and nonlinear Volterra integral equations of the second kind with local fractional derivative operators. Some illustrative examples are discussed to demonstrate the efficiency and the accuracy of the proposed method. Furthermore, this method does not require spatial discretization or restrictive assumptions and therefore reduces the numerical computation significantly. The results reveal that the local fractional variational iteration method is very effective and convenient to solve linear and nonlinear integral equations within local fractional derivative operators.

Thermal Stress Analysis In A Functionally Graded Hollow Elliptic-Cylinder Subjected To Uniform Temperature Distribution, V. R. Manthena, N. K. Lamba, G. D. Kedar

Applications and Applied Mathematics: An International Journal (AAM)

In this paper, an analytical method of a thermoelastic problem for a medium with functionally graded material properties is developed in a theoretical manner for the elliptic-cylindrical coordinate system under the assumption that the material properties except for Poisson’s ratio and density are assumed to vary arbitrarily with the exponential law in the radial direction. An attempt has been made to reconsider the fundamental system of equations for functionally graded solids in a two-dimensional state under thermal and mechanical loads. The general solution of displacement formulation is obtained by the introduction of appropriate transformation and carried out the analysis by …

Numerical Solution Of Fractional Elliptic Pde's By The Collocation Method, Fuat Usta Jun 2017

Numerical Solution Of Fractional Elliptic Pde's By The Collocation Method, Fuat Usta

Applications and Applied Mathematics: An International Journal (AAM)

In this presentation a numerical solution for the solution of fractional order of elliptic partial differential equation in R2 is proposed. In this method we use the Radial basis functions (RBFs) method to benefit the desired properties of mesh free techniques such as no need to generate any mesh and easily applied to multi dimensions. In the numerical solution approach the RBF collocation method is used to discrete fractional derivative terms with the Gaussian basis function. Two dimensional numerical examples are presented and discussed, which conform well with the corresponding exact solutions.


Long And Short-Range Air Navigation On Spherical Earth, Nihad E. Daidzic Jan 2017

Long And Short-Range Air Navigation On Spherical Earth, Nihad E. Daidzic

International Journal of Aviation, Aeronautics, and Aerospace

Global range air navigation implies non-stop flight between any two airports on Earth. Such effort would require airplanes with the operational air range of at least 12,500 NM which is about 40-60% longer than anything existing in commercial air transport today. Air transportation economy requires flying shortest distance, which in the case of spherical Earth are Orthodrome arcs. Rhumb-line navigation has little practical use in long-range flights, but has been presented for historical reasons and for comparison. Database of about 50 major international airports from every corner of the world has been designed and used in testing and route validation. …
