Thermoelastic Stress Analysis Of A Functionally Graded Transversely Isotropic Hollow Cylinder In Elliptical Coordinates, Tara Dhakate, Vinod Varghese, Lalsingh Khalsa Dec 2018

Thermoelastic Stress Analysis Of A Functionally Graded Transversely Isotropic Hollow Cylinder In Elliptical Coordinates, Tara Dhakate, Vinod Varghese, Lalsingh Khalsa

Applications and Applied Mathematics: An International Journal (AAM)

This paper is concerned with the axisymmetric thermoelastic problem to investigate the influence of nonlinear heat conduction equation, displacement functions and thermal stresses of a functionally graded transversely isotropic hollow cylinder that is presented in the elliptical coordinate system. The method of integral transform technique is used to produce an exact solution of the heat conduction equation in which sources are generated according to a linear function of the temperature. An explicit exact solution of the governing thermoelastic equation is proposed when material properties are power-law functions with the exponential form of the radial coordinate. Numerical calculations are also carried …

The Basins Of Convergence In The Planar Restricted Four-Body Problem With Variable Mass, Amit Mittal, Monika Arora, Md S. Suraj, Rajiv Aggarwal Dec 2018

The Basins Of Convergence In The Planar Restricted Four-Body Problem With Variable Mass, Amit Mittal, Monika Arora, Md S. Suraj, Rajiv Aggarwal

Applications and Applied Mathematics: An International Journal (AAM)

We have studied the existence, location and stability of the libration points in the model of restricted four-body problem (R4BP) with variable mass. It is assumed that three primaries, one dominant primary and the other two with equal masses, are always forming an equilateral triangle. We have determined the equations of motion of the above mentioned problem for the fourth body which is an infinitesimal mass. The libration points have been determined numerically for different values of the parameters considered. It is found that there are eight or ten libration points out of which six are non-collinear and two or …

Linear Stability Analysis With Solution Patterns Due To Varying Thermal Diffusivity For A Convective Flow In A Porous Medium, Dambaru Bhatta Dec 2018

Linear Stability Analysis With Solution Patterns Due To Varying Thermal Diffusivity For A Convective Flow In A Porous Medium, Dambaru Bhatta

Applications and Applied Mathematics: An International Journal (AAM)

Here we investigate the effect of the vertical rate of change in thermal diffusivity due to a hydrothermal convective flow in a horizontal porous medium. The continuity equation, the heat equation and the momentum-Darcy equation constitute the governing system for the flow in a porous medium. Assuming a vertically varying basic state, we derive the linear system and from this linear system, we compute the critical Rayleigh and wave numbers. Using fourth-order Runge-Kutta and shooting methods, we obtain the marginal stability curves and linear solutions to analyze the solution pattern for different diffusivity parameters.

Restricted Three-Body Problem Under The Effect Of Albedo When Smaller Primary Is A Finite Straight Segment, Shipra Chauhan, Dinesh Kumar, Bhavneet Kaur Dec 2018

Restricted Three-Body Problem Under The Effect Of Albedo When Smaller Primary Is A Finite Straight Segment, Shipra Chauhan, Dinesh Kumar, Bhavneet Kaur

Applications and Applied Mathematics: An International Journal (AAM)

This paper addresses the dynamics of the infinitesimal body in the restricted three-body problem under the effect of Albedo when the smaller primary is a finite straight segment and bigger one is a source of radiation. The measure of diffusive reflection of solar radiation out of the total solar radiation received by a body is Albedo which is measured on a scale from 0 to 1. The equations of motion of the infinitesimal body are derived and it is found that there exist five libration points, out of which three are collinear and the rest are non-collinear with the primaries. …

Resonance In The Motion Of A Geocentric Satellite Due To Poynting-Robertson Drag, Charanpreet Kaur, Binay K. Sharma, L. P. Pandey Jun 2018

Resonance In The Motion Of A Geocentric Satellite Due To Poynting-Robertson Drag, Charanpreet Kaur, Binay K. Sharma, L. P. Pandey

Applications and Applied Mathematics: An International Journal (AAM)

The problem of resonance in a geocentric Satellite under the combined gravitational forces of the Sun and the Earth due to Poynting-Robertson (P-R) drag has been discussed in this paper with the assumption that all three bodies, the Earth, the Sun and the Satellite, lie in an ecliptic plane. Our approach differs from conventional ones as we have placed evaluated velocity of the Satellite in equations of motion.We observed five resonance points commensurable between the mean motion of the Satellite and the average angular velocity of the Earth around the Sun, out of which two resonances occur only due to …

Generalized Problem Of Thermal Bending Analysis In The Cartesian Domain, V. S. Kulkarni, Vinayaki Parab Jun 2018

Generalized Problem Of Thermal Bending Analysis In The Cartesian Domain, V. S. Kulkarni, Vinayaki Parab

Applications and Applied Mathematics: An International Journal (AAM)

This is an attempt for mathematical formulation and general analytical solution of the most generalized thermal bending problem in the Cartesian domain. The problem has been formulated in the context of non-homogeneous transient heat equation subjected to Robin’s boundary conditions. The general solution of the generalized thermoelastic problem has been discussed for temperature change, displacements, thermal stresses, deflection, and deformation. The most important feature of this work is any special case of practical interest may be readily obtained by this most generalized mathematical formulation and its analytical solution. There are 729 such combinations of possible boundary conditions prescribed on parallelepiped …
