Comparison Differential Transformation Technique With Adomian Decomposition Method For Dispersive Long-Wave Equations In (2+1)-Dimensions, M. A. Mohamed Jun 2010

Comparison Differential Transformation Technique With Adomian Decomposition Method For Dispersive Long-Wave Equations In (2+1)-Dimensions, M. A. Mohamed

Applications and Applied Mathematics: An International Journal (AAM)

In this paper, we will introduce two methods to obtain the numerical solutions for the system of dispersive long-wave equations (DLWE) in (2+1)-dimensions. The first method is the differential transformation method (DTM) and the second method is Adomian decomposition method (ADM). Moreover, we will make comparison between the solutions obtained by the two methods. Consequently, the results of our system tell us the two methods can be alternative ways for solution of the linear and nonlinear higher-order initial value problems.


Developing An Improved Shift-And-Invert Arnoldi Method, H. Saberi Najafi, M. Shams Solary Jun 2010

Developing An Improved Shift-And-Invert Arnoldi Method, H. Saberi Najafi, M. Shams Solary

Applications and Applied Mathematics: An International Journal (AAM)

An algorithm has been developed for finding a number of eigenvalues close to a given shift and in interval [ Lb,Ub ] of a large unsymmetric matrix pair. The algorithm is based on the shift-andinvert Arnoldi with a block matrix method. The block matrix method is simple and it uses for obtaining the inverse matrix. This algorithm also accelerates the shift-and-invert Arnoldi Algorithm by selecting a suitable shift. We call this algorithm Block Shift-and-Invert or BSI. Numerical examples are presented and a comparison has been shown with the results obtained by Sptarn Algorithm in Matlab. The results show that the …

Improved Dust Acoustic Solitary Waves In Two Temperature Dust Fluids, E. K. El-Shewy, H. G. Abdelwahed, M. I. Abo El Maaty, M. A. Elmessary

Applications and Applied Mathematics: An International Journal (AAM)

A theoretical investigation is carried out for contribution of the higher-order nonlinearity to nonlinear dust-acoustic solitary waves (DASWs) in an unmagnetized two types of dust fluids (one cold and the other is hot) in the presence of Bolltzmannian ions and electrons. A KdV equation that contains the lowest-order nonlinearity and dispersion is derived from the lowest order of perturbation and a linear inhomogeneous (KdV-type) equation that accounts for the higher-order nonlinearity and dispersion is obtained. A stationary solution for equations resulting from higher-order perturbation theory has been found using the renormalization method. The effects of hot and cold dust charge …


Variational Iteration Method For Solving Two-Parameter Singularly Perturbed Two Point Boundary Value Problem, Marwan Taiseer Alquran, Nurettin Doğan Jun 2010

Variational Iteration Method For Solving Two-Parameter Singularly Perturbed Two Point Boundary Value Problem, Marwan Taiseer Alquran, Nurettin Doğan

Applications and Applied Mathematics: An International Journal (AAM)

In this paper, He’s Variational iteration method (VIM) is used for the solution of singularly perturbed two-point boundary value problems with two small parameters multiplying the derivatives. Some problems are solved to demonstrate the applicability of the method. This paper suggests a patern for choosing the freely selected initial approximation in the VIM that leads to a very well approximation by only one iteration.

Uniform Stabilization Of N-Dimensional Vibrating Equation Modeling ‘Standard Linear Model’ Of Viscoelasticity, Ganesh C. Gorain

Applications and Applied Mathematics: An International Journal (AAM)

In this paper, we deal with the elastic vibrations of flexible structures modeled by the ‘standard linear model’ of viscoelasticity in n-dimensional space.

Explicit forms of exponential energy decay rates are obtained by a direct method, for the solution of such boundary value problems without having to introduce any boundary feedback.

Parameter Estimation In Nonlinear Coupled Advection-Diffusion Equation, Robert R. Ferdinand

Applications and Applied Mathematics: An International Journal (AAM)

In this paper a coupled system of two nonlinear advection-diffusion equations is presented. Such systems of equations have been used in mathematical literature to describe the dynamics of contaminant present in groundwater flowing through cracks in a porous rock matrix and getting absorbed into it. An inverse method procedure that approximates infinite-dimensional model parameters is described and convergence results for the parameter approximants are proved. This is finally followed by a computational experiment to compare theoretical and numerical results to verify accuracy of the mathematics analysis presented.

Oscillations Of Hyperbolic Systems With Functional Arguments, Yutaka Shoukaku, Norio Yoshida

Applications and Applied Mathematics: An International Journal (AAM)

Hyperbolic systems with functional arguments are studied, and sufficient conditions are obtained for every solution of boundary value problems to be weakly oscillatory (that is, at least one of its components is oscillatory) in a cylindrical domain. Robin-type boundary condition is considered. The approach used is to reduce the multi-dimensional oscillation problems to one-dimensional oscillation problems by using some integral means of solutions.


A Partially Discretized Age-Dependent Population Model With An Additional Stucture, Jean Tchuenche Dec 2006

A Partially Discretized Age-Dependent Population Model With An Additional Stucture, Jean Tchuenche

Applications and Applied Mathematics: An International Journal (AAM)

A semi-discretization method for solving an age-dependent population dynamics model with an additional structure is proposed. This method, unlike previous ones, considers the partial discretization which reduces the model equation into a first order ordinary differential equation. The latter is then solved explicitly and conditions under which second order accuracy arises are given. While the approach adopted is basically analytical, the main result shows that the sum of errors is bounded. An extension to the non-trivial case where growth depends on the additional parameter leads to a Riccati equation, and the existence and
convergence of solutions are proved.

Interval - Mtype Oscillation Criteria For Half - Linear Pde With Damping, Robert Marik Jun 2006

Interval - Mtype Oscillation Criteria For Half - Linear Pde With Damping, Robert Marik

Applications and Applied Mathematics: An International Journal (AAM)

Using the Riccati substitution we derive new sufficient conditions which ensure that the half-linear partial differential equation with p-Laplacian and damping in the form of Equation (E) in the paper is oscillatory. These criteria, called interval criteria in theory of ODE's, allow to eliminate “bad parts” of the potential function c(x) from our considerations. Some of the results are new even in the case when (E) becomes linear ordinary differential equation.


A Discrete Time Counterpart Of The Black-Scholes Bond Replication Portfolio, Andrzej Korzeniowski Jun 2006

A Discrete Time Counterpart Of The Black-Scholes Bond Replication Portfolio, Andrzej Korzeniowski

Applications and Applied Mathematics: An International Journal (AAM)

We construct a discrete time self-financing portfolio comprised of call options short and stock shares long which is riskless and grows at a fixed rate of return. It is also shown that when shorting periods tend to zero then so devised portfolio turns into the Black-Scholes bond replication. Unlike in standard approach the analysis presented here requires neither Ito Calculus nor solving the Heat Equation for option pricing.
