Abstract Functional Stochastic Evolution Equations Driven By Fractional Brownian Motion, Mark A. McKibben, Micah Webster 2014 West Chester University of Pennsylvania

Abstract Functional Stochastic Evolution Equations Driven By Fractional Brownian Motion, Mark A. Mckibben, Micah Webster

Mathematics Faculty Publications

We investigate a class of abstract functional stochastic evolution equations driven by a fractional Brownianmotion in a real separable Hilbert space.Global existence results concerningmild solutions are formulated under various growth and compactness conditions. Continuous dependence estimates and convergence results are also established. Analysis of three stochastic partial differential equations, including a second-order stochastic evolution equation arising in the modeling of wave phenomena and a nonlinear diffusion equation, is provided to illustrate the applicability of the general theory.


Hamiltonian Approach To The Modeling Of Internal Geophysical Waves With Vorticity, Alan Compelli 2014 Technological University Dublin

Hamiltonian Approach To The Modeling Of Internal Geophysical Waves With Vorticity, Alan Compelli

Articles

We examine a simplified model of internal geophysical waves in a rotational 2-dimensional water-wave system, under the influence of Coriolis forces and with gravitationally induced waves. The system consists of a lower medium, bound underneath by an impermeable flat bed, and an upper lid. The 2 media have a free common interface. Both media have constant density and constant (non-zero) vorticity. By examining the governing equations of the system we calculate the Hamiltonian of the system in terms of its conjugate variables and perform a variable transformation to show that it has canonical Hamiltonian structure. We then linearize the system, …


Symmetry And Reductions Of Integrable Dynamical Systems: Peakon And The Toda Chain Systems, Vladimir Gerdjikov, Rossen Ivanov, Gaetano Vilasi 2014 INRNE, Sofia, Bulgaria

Symmetry And Reductions Of Integrable Dynamical Systems: Peakon And The Toda Chain Systems, Vladimir Gerdjikov, Rossen Ivanov, Gaetano Vilasi

Articles

We are analyzing several types of dynamical systems which are both integrable and important for physical applications. The first type are the so-called peakon systems that appear in the singular solutions of the Camassa-Holm equation describing special types of water waves. The second type are Toda chain systems, that describe molecule interactions. Their complexifications model soliton interactions in the adiabatic approximation. We analyze the algebraic aspects of the Toda chains and describe their real Hamiltonian forms.


Infinitely Many Rotationally Symmetric Solutions To A Class Of Semilinear Laplace-Beltrami Equations On The Unit Sphere, Emily M. Fischer 2014 Harvey Mudd College

Infinitely Many Rotationally Symmetric Solutions To A Class Of Semilinear Laplace-Beltrami Equations On The Unit Sphere, Emily M. Fischer

HMC Senior Theses

I show that a class of semilinear Laplace-Beltrami equations has infinitely many solutions on the unit sphere which are symmetric with respect to rotations around some axis. This equation corresponds to a singular ordinary differential equation, which we solve using energy analysis. We obtain a Pohozaev-type identity to prove that the energy is continuously increasing with the initial condition and then use phase plane analysis to prove the existence of infinitely many solutions.


Matrix G-Strands, Darryl Holm, Rossen Ivanov 2014 Imperial College London

Matrix G-Strands, Darryl Holm, Rossen Ivanov

Articles

We discuss three examples in which one may extend integrable Euler–Poincare ordinary differential equations to integrable Euler–Poincare partial differential
equations in the matrix G-Strand context. After describing matrix G-Strand examples for SO(3) and SO(4) we turn our attention to SE(3) where the matrix G-Strand equations recover the exact rod theory in the convective representation. We then find a zero curvature representation of these equations and establish the conditions under which they are completely integrable. Thus, the G-Strand equations turn out to be a rich source of integrable systems. The treatment is meant to be expository and most concepts are explained …


Hamiltonian Formulation Of 2 Bounded Immiscible Media With Constant Non-Zero Vorticities And A Common Interface, Alan Compelli 2014 Technological University Dublin

Hamiltonian Formulation Of 2 Bounded Immiscible Media With Constant Non-Zero Vorticities And A Common Interface, Alan Compelli

Articles

We examine a 2-dimensional water-wave system, with gravitationally induced waves, consisting of a lower medium bound underneath by an impermeable flat bed and an upper medium bound above by an impermeable lid such that the 2 media have a free common interface. Both media have constant density and constant (non-zero) vorticity. By examining the governing equations of the system we calculate the Hamiltonian of the system in terms of it's conjugate variables and per- form a variable transformation to show that it has canonical Hamiltonian structure.


Computational Models For Nanosecond Laser Ablation, Harihar Khanal, David Autrique, Vasilios Alexiades 2014 Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University

Computational Models For Nanosecond Laser Ablation, Harihar Khanal, David Autrique, Vasilios Alexiades

Publications

Laser ablation in an ambient environment is becoming increasingly important in science and technology. It is used in applications ranging from chemical analysis via mass spectroscopy, to pulsed laser deposition and nanoparticle manufacturing. We describe numerical schemes for a multiphase hydrodynamic model of nanosecond laser ablation expressing energy, momentum, and mass conservation in the target material, as well as in the expanding plasma plume, along with collisional and radiative processes for laser-induced breakdown (plasma formation). Numerical simulations for copper in a helium background gas are presented and the efficiency of various ODE integrators is compared.

We consider the Duffin-Kemmer-Petiau (DKP) equation in the presence of a spatially one-dimensional Woods-Saxon (WS) potential and we show by graphics how the zero-reflection condition on the Klein interval depends on the shape of the potential.


Exponentially Fitted Variants Of The Two-Step Adams-Bashforth Method For The Numerical Integration Of Initial Problems, Gurjinder Singh, V. Kanwar, Saurabh Bhatia 2013 Panjab University

Exponentially Fitted Variants Of The Two-Step Adams-Bashforth Method For The Numerical Integration Of Initial Problems, Gurjinder Singh, V. Kanwar, Saurabh Bhatia

Applications and Applied Mathematics: An International Journal (AAM)

In this paper, we propose new variants of the two-step Adams-Bashforth and the one-step Adams-Moulton methods for the numerical integration of ordinary differential equations (ODEs). The methods are constructed geometrically from an exponentially fitted osculating parabola. The accuracy and stability of the proposed variants is discussed and their applicability to some initial value problems is also considered. Numerical experiments demonstrate that the exponentially fitted variants of the two-step Adams-Bashforth and the one-step Adams-Moulton methods outperform the existing classical two-step Adams-Bashforth and one-step Adams- Moulton methods respectively.


Dispersion Of A Solute In Hartmann Two-Fluid Flow Between Two Parallel Plates, J. P. Kumar, J. C. Umavathi 2013 Gulbarga University

Dispersion Of A Solute In Hartmann Two-Fluid Flow Between Two Parallel Plates, J. P. Kumar, J. C. Umavathi

Applications and Applied Mathematics: An International Journal (AAM)

The paper presents an analytical solution for the dispersion of a solute in a conducting immiscible fluid flowing between two parallel plates in the presence of a transverse magnetic field. The fluids in both the regions are incompressible, electrically conducting and the transport properties are assumed to be constant. The channel walls are assumed to be electrically insulating. Separate solutions for each fluid are obtained and these solutions are matched at the interface using suitable matching conditions. The results are tabulated for various values of viscosity ratio, pressure gradient and Hartman number on the effective Taylor dispersion coefficient and volumetric …

Exact Traveling Wave Solutions Of Nonlinear Pdes In Mathematical Physics Using The Modified Simple Equation Method, E. M. E. Zayed, A. H. Arnous

Applications and Applied Mathematics: An International Journal (AAM)

In this article, we apply the modified simple equation method to find the exact solutions with parameters of the (1+1)-dimensional nonlinear Burgers-Huxley equation, the (2+1) dimensional cubic nonlinear Klein-Gordon equation and the (2+1)-dimensional nonlinear Kadomtsev- Petviashvili-Benjamin-Bona-Mahony (KP-BBM) equation. The new exact solutions of these three equations are obtained. When these parameters are given special values, the solitary solutions are obtained.


Application Of The Optimal Homotopy Asymptotic Method For Solving The Cauchy Reaction-Diffusion Problem, H. Jafari, S. Gharbavy 2013 University of Mazandaran

Application Of The Optimal Homotopy Asymptotic Method For Solving The Cauchy Reaction-Diffusion Problem, H. Jafari, S. Gharbavy

Applications and Applied Mathematics: An International Journal (AAM)

In this paper, the optimal homotopy asymptotic method is applied on the Cauchy reaction-diffusion problems to check the effectiveness and performance of the method. The obtained solutions show that the OHAM is more effective, simpler and easier than other methods. Moreover, this technique does not require any discretization or linearization and therefore it reduces significantly the numerical computations. The results reveal that the method is explicit.


Maxwell’S Equations On Cantor Sets: A Local Fractional Approach, Yang Xiaojun 2013 Y. Zhao

Maxwell’S Equations On Cantor Sets: A Local Fractional Approach, Yang Xiaojun

Xiao-Jun Yang

Maxwell’s equations on Cantor sets are derived from the local fractional vector calculus. It is shown that Maxwell’s equations on Cantor sets in a fractal bounded domain give efficiency and accuracy for describing the fractal electric and magnetic fields. Local fractional differential forms of Maxwell’s equations on Cantor sets in the Cantorian and Cantor-type cylindrical coordinates are obtained. Maxwell’s equations on Cantor set with local fractional operators are the first step towards a unified theory of Maxwell’s equations for the dynamics of cold dark matter.

Application Of The Local Fractional Series Expansion Method And The Variational Iteration Method To The Helmholtz Equation Involving Local Fractional Derivative Operators, Yang Xiaojun

Xiao-Jun Yang

We investigate solutions of the Helmholtz equation involving local fractional derivative operators. We make use of the series expansion method and the variational iteration method, which are based upon the local fractional derivative operators. The nondifferentiable solution of the problem is obtained by using these methods.


Computation Sequences For Series And Polynomials, Yiming Zhang 2013 The University of Western Ontario

Computation Sequences For Series And Polynomials, Yiming Zhang

Electronic Thesis and Dissertation Repository

Approximation to the solutions of non-linear differential systems is very useful when the exact solutions are unattainable. Perturbation expansion replaces the system with a sequences of smaller problems, only the first of which is typically nonlinear. This works well by hand for the first few terms, but higher order computations are typically too demanding for all but the most persistent. Symbolic computation is thus attractive; however, symbolic computation of the expansions almost always encounters intermediate expression swell, by which we mean exponential growth in subexpression size or repetitions. A successful management of spatial complexity is vital to compute meaningful results. …
