A Polynomial Approach to the Piecewise Hyperbolic Method

2003

In this paper, a local (third-order accurate) shock capturing method for hyperbolic conservation laws is presented. The method has been made with the same idea as the PHM method, but with a simpler reconstruction. A comparison with the classic high order methods is discussed.

Large time behavior for a porous medium equation in a nonhomogeneous medium with critical density

2014

Abstract We study the large time behavior of solutions to the Cauchy problem for the porous medium equation in nonhomogeneous media with critical singular density | x | − 2 ∂ t u = Δ u m , in R N × ( 0 , ∞ ) , where m > 1 and N ≥ 3 , with nonnegative initial condition u ( x , 0 ) = u 0 ( x ) ≥ 0 . The asymptotic behavior proves to have some interesting and striking properties. We show that there are different asymptotic profiles for the solutions, depending on whether the continuous initial data u 0 vanishes at x = 0 or not. Moreover, when u 0 ( 0 ) = 0 , we show the convergence towards a peak-type profile presenting a jump discontinuity, coming from an interesting asymptotic simplification…

Numerical propagator method solutions for the linear parabolic initial boundary-value problems

2007

On the base of our numerical propagator method a new finite volume difference scheme is proposed for solution of linear initial-boundary value problems. Stability of the scheme is investigated taking into account the obtained analytical solution of the initial-boundary value problems. It is shown that stability restrictions for the propagator scheme become weaker in comparison to traditional semi-implicit difference schemes. There are some regions of coefficients, for which the elaborated propagator difference scheme becomes absolutely stable. It is proven that the scheme is unconditionally monotonic. Analytical solutions, which are consistent with solubility conditions of the problem are f…

The exact finite‐difference scheme for vector boundary‐value problems with piece‐wise constant coefficients

1998

We will consider the exact finite‐difference scheme for solving the system of differential equations of second order with piece‐wise constant coefficients. It is well‐known, that the presence of large parameters at first order derivatives or small parameters at second order derivatives in the system of hydrodynamics and magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) equations (large Reynolds, Hartmann and others numbers) causes additional difficulties for the applications of general classical numerical methods. Thus, important to work out special methods of solution, the so‐called uniform converging computational methods. This gives a basis for the development of special monotone finite vector‐difference schem…

Anharmonicity deformation and curvature in supersymmetric potentials

1994

An algebraic description of the class of 1D supersymmetric shape invariant potentials is investigated in terms of the shape-invariant-potential (SIP) deformed algebra, the generators of which act both on the dynamical variable and on the parameters of the potentials. The phase space geometry associated with SIP's is studied by means of a coherent state (SIP-CS) path integral and the ray metric of the SIP-CS manifold. The anharmonicity of SIP's results in a inhomogeneous phase space manifold with one Killing vector and with a modified symplectic Kahler structure, and it induces a non constant curvature into the generalized phase space. Analogous results from the phase space geometry of someq…

A new mathematical tool for an exact treatment of open quantum system dynamics

2005

A new method to obtain an operatorial exact solution of a wide class of Markovian master equations is presented. Its key point is the existence of a constant of motion partitioning the Hilbert space into finite-dimensional subspaces. The consequent possibility of representing the reduced density operator as a block diagonal matrix is shown. Each “block operator” evolves under the action of a non-unitary operator explicitly derived. Our mathematical approach is illustrated applying it to simple physical systems.

Long-range cohesive interactions of non-local continuum faced by fractional calculus

2008

Abstract A non-local continuum model including long-range forces between non-adjacent volume elements has been studied in this paper. The proposed continuum model has been obtained as limit case of two fully equivalent mechanical models: (i) A volume element model including contact forces between adjacent volumes as well as long-range interactions, distance decaying, between non-adjacent elements. (ii) A discrete point-spring model with local springs between adjacent points and non-local springs with distance-decaying stiffness connecting non-adjacent points. Under the assumption of fractional distance-decaying interactions between non-adjacent elements a fractional differential equation in…

Fractional visco-elastic Euler–Bernoulli beam

2013

Abstract Aim of this paper is the response evaluation of fractional visco-elastic Euler–Bernoulli beam under quasi-static and dynamic loads. Starting from the local fractional visco-elastic relationship between axial stress and axial strain, it is shown that bending moment, curvature, shear, and the gradient of curvature involve fractional operators. Solution of particular example problems are studied in detail providing a correct position of mechanical boundary conditions. Moreover, it is shown that, for homogeneous beam both correspondence principles also hold in the case of Euler–Bernoulli beam with fractional constitutive law. Virtual work principle is also derived and applied to some c…
