The uniqueness and existence of solution of the characteristic problem on the generalized KdV equation

The generalized KdV equationu ₁+auu_a+μu_a3+eu_a5=0^[1] is a typical integrable equation. It is derived studying the dissemination of magnet sound wave in cold plasma^[2], the isolated wave in transmission line^[3], and the isolated wave in the boundary surface of the divided layer fluid^[4]. For the characteristic problem of the generalized KdV equation, this paper, based on the Riemann function, designs a suitable structure, then changes the characteristic problem to an equivalent integral and differential equation whose corresponding fixed point, the above integral differential equation has a unique regular solution, so the characteristic problem of the generalized KdV equation has a unique solution. The iteration solution derived from the integral differential equation sequence is uniformly convegent in .     

Large deflection problem of a clamped elliptical plate subjected to uniform pressure

In this paper, the perturbation solution of large deflection problem of clamped elliptical plate subjected to uniform pressure is given on the basis of the perturbation solution of large deflection problem of similar clamped circular plate (1948), (1954). The analytical solution of this problem was obtained in 1957. However, due to social difficulties, these results have never been published. Nash and Cooley (1959) published a brief note of similar nature, in which only the case λ=a/b=2 is given. In this paper, the analytical solution is given in detail up to the 2nd approximation. The numerical solutions are given for various Poisson ratios v=0.25, 0.30, 0.35 and for various eccentricities λ=1, 2, 3, 4, 5, which can be used in the calculation of engineering designs.     

The bending of elastic circular ring of non-homogeneous and variable cross section under the actions of arbitrary loads

On the basis of the stepped reduction method suggested in [1], we investigate the problem of the bending of elastic circular ring of non-homogeneous and variable cross section under the actions of arbitrary loads. The general solution of this problem is obtained so that it can be used for the calculations of strength and rigidity of practical problems such as arch, tunnel etc. In order to examine results of this paper and explain the application of this new method, an example is brought out at the end of this paper. Circular ring and arch are commonly used structures in engineering. Timoshenko, S.^[2], Barber, J. R.^[3], Tsumura Rimitsu^[4] et al. have studied these problems of bending, but, so far as we know, it has been solely restricted to the general solution of homogeneous uniform cross section ring. The only known solution for the problems with variable cross section ones has been solely restricted to the solution of special case of flexural rigidity in linear function of coordinates. On account of fundamental equations of the non-homogeneous variable cross section problem being variable coefficients, it is very difficult to solve them. In this paper, we use the stepped reduction method suggested in [1] to transform the variable coefficient differential equation into equivalent constant coefficient one. After introducing virtual internal forces, we obtain general solution of an elastic circular ring with non-homogeneity and variable cross section under the actions of arbitrary loads.

All the numerical results obtained in this paper are compared with that of Kirchhoff-Love classical theory^[3] and E. Reissner's modified theory^[4].

These results are compared with the numerical and the experimental results given by other authors^{[4, 5]}, and a good agreement is obtained. At the end of this paper the authors inspect the correctness of Neuber's formula^[9] for this problem.     

Calculation of stresses and deformations of bellows by initial parameter method of numerical integration

By reducing the boundary value problem in stress analysis of bellows into initial value problem, this paper presents a numerical solution of stress distribution in semi-circular arc type bellows based upon the toroidal shell equation of V. V. Novozelov^[8]. Throughout the computation, S. Gill’s method^[1O] of extrapolation is used. The stresses and deformations of bellows under axial load and internal pressure are c-alculated, the results of which agree completely with those derived from the general solution of Prof. Chien Wei-zang^[1-4]. The extrapolation formula presented in this paper greatly promotes the accuracy of discrete calculation.The computer program in BASIC language of Wang 2200 VS computer is included in the appendix.

A direct method for deriving fundamental solution of half-plane problem

A fundamental solution for half-plane problems which will play a key role in calculation of the stress concentration around a hole embedded in half-plane is derived by a method combining images with direct integrations. It is wore intuitive than the Fourier transform method used by Gladwell[6]. In addition, the principle and procedure of boundary element method to solve the half-plane problems are also presented by means of Betti’s reciprocal theorem in this paper.It is shown that the. computing procedure for half-plane problems is much more convenient using the fundamental solution presented here than the one adopted by C.A.     

THE TRANSFORMATION FUNCTION Φ AND THE CONDITION NEEDED FOR KUR SPACE HAVING THE FIXED POINT

In the last several years some progress has been made in the study of the properties of the extent of Banach space: In 1979 for example, when Suillivan discussed a related characterization of real L^p (X) space, he used uniform behavior of all two-dimensional subspace and defined this concept of a KUR space. In 1980 Huff used the concept of a NUC space when he discussed the property of generalizing uniform convexity which was defined in terms of sequence. And in 1980 Yu Xin-tai stated certainly and proved that the KUR space is equal to the NUC space^[1]. However, the following quite interesting questions raised respectively by Suillivan and Huff merit attention: Does every super-reflexive space have the fixed point property?^[2] The purpose of this paper is to study the characterization of transformation function^[4] and relationships between transformation function and the two questions above.     

A new approximate analytical solution of the ideal potential flow around a circular cylinder between two parallel flat plates

In ref. [1], Lin obtained an approximate analytical solution of the ideal potential flow around a circular cylinder between two parallel flat flates.In this paper, the author shows that one may obtain the result coinciding with that obtained in ref. [1] by making use of the Shvez's method^[2]. Morever, we can obtain a more accurate result than that obtained in ref. [1], if we make use of the improved Shvez's method^[2]. Some calculating examples are presented.     

On the jumping problems of a circular thin plate with initial deflection

In this paper, the jumping problems of a circular thin plate with initial deflection are studied by using the method of two variables^[3],[4] proposed by Jiang Fu-ru and the method of the normal perturbation (in this paper (1.1), (1.2)). We obtain Nth-order uniformly valid asymptotic expansion of the solution of this problem ((1.66), (1.67)). When the initial deflection vanishes the solution of a circular thinplate with initial deflection is reduced to the solution of the problems of the nonlinear bending of a circular thin plate^[6]. If the initial deflection is largish and the signs of the initial deflection with the intensity of the transverse load are opposite, when the intensity of the transverse load reaches a certain value, the circular thin plate with initial deflection should produce the jumping phenomenon^[8].     

ON THE MECHANISM OF TURBULENT COHERENT STRUCTURE (III)──A STATISTICAL AND DYNAMICAL MODEL OF COHERENT STRUCTURE AND ITS HEAT TRANSFER MECHANISM

Following Tsai & Ma^[1] and Tsai & Liu^[2], a statistical and dynamical near-wall turbulent coherent structural model with separate consideration of two different portions: locally generated and upstream-transported large eddies has been established. With this model, heat transfer in a fully developed open channel in the absence of pressure gradient is numerically simulated. Database of fluctuations of velocity and temperature has also been set. Numerical analysis shows the existence of high-low temperature streak caused by near-wall coherent structure and its swing in the lateral direction. Numerical results are in accordance with the computations and experimental results of other researchers.

The wedge subjected to general tractions: A paradox resolved

A wedge subjected to tractions in proportion tor ⁿ (n≥0), is considered. The stresses in the solutions of the classical theory of elasticity become infinite when the angle of the wedge is ρ or 2ρ. The paradox has been resolved by Dempsey^[4] and T.C.T. Ting^[5] whenn=0. The purpose of this paper is to resolve the paradox whenn>0.     

An exact element method for plane problem

In this paper, based on the step reduction method^[1] and exact analytic method^[2] anew method-exact element method for constructing finite element, is presented. Since the new method doesn ’t need the variational principle, it can be applied to solve non-positive and positive definite partial differential equations with arbitrary variable coefficient. By this method, a quadrilateral noncompatible element with 8 degrees of freedom is derived for the solution of plane problem. Since Jacobi ’s transformation is not applied, the present element may degenerate into a triangle element. It is convenient to use the element in engineering. In this paper, the convergence is proved. Numerical examples are given at the endof this paper, which indicate satisfactory results of stress and displacements can be obtained and have higher numerical precision in nodes.     

Variational principles and generalized variational principles for nonlinear elasticity with finite displacement

In a previous paper (1979)^[1], the minimum potential energy principle and stationary complementary energy principle for nonlinear elasticity with finite displacement, together with various complete and incomplete generalized principles were studied. However, the statements and proofs of these principles were not so clearly stated about their constraint conditions and their Euler equations. In somecases, the Euler equations have been mistaken as constraint conditions. For example, the stress displacement relation should be considered as Euler equation in complementary energy principle but have been mistaken as constraint conditions in variation. That is to say, in the above mentioned paper, the number of constraint conditions exceeds the necessary requirement. Furthermore, in all these variational principles, the stress-strain relation never participate in the variation process as constraints, i.e., they may act as a constraint in the sense that, after the set of Euler equations is solved, the stress-strain relation may be used to derive the stresses from known strains, or to derive the strains from known stresses. This point was not clearly mentioned in the previous paper (1979)^[1]. In this paper, the high order Lagrange multiplier method (1983)^[2] is used to construct the corresponding generalized variational principle in more general form. Throughout this paper, V/.V. Novozhilov's results (1958)^[3] for nonlinear elasticity are used.     

ON SLOSHING IN A CONTAINER WITH MOVING WALL

The research on the coupled frequencies of a fluid–structure system comprised of a container with a moving wall partially filled with water (Figure 1) was presented in two papers by Lu et al. and Chai et al., but their solutions are different. The aim of this letter is to compare them. The fluid is incompressible and inviscid, and the structure is a mass m[kg m⁻¹] in translation, connected to the Galilean reference by a spring of stiffness k[N m⁻²]; these characteristics are given per unit length in the z direction. The authors linearized the equations and looked for a potential-flow solution for the fluid motion. They obtain the same set of equations.
