The adjoining cell mapping and its recursive unraveling,part I: Description of adaptive and recursive algorithms

A new type of cell mapping, referred to as an adjoining cell mapping, is developed in this paper for autonomous dynamical systems employing the cellular state space. It is based on an adaptive time integration employed to compute an associated cell mapping for the system. This technique overcomes the problem of determining an appropriate duration of integration time for the simple cell mapping method. Employing the adjoining mapping principle, the first type of algorithm developed here is an adaptive mapping unraveling algorithm to determine equilibria and limit cycles of the dynamical system in a way similar to that of the simple cell mapping. In addition, it is capable of providing useful information regarding the behavior of dynamical systems possessing pathological dynamics and of systems with rapidly changing vector field. The adjoining property inherent in the adjoining cell mapping method, in general, permits development of new recursive algorithms for unraveling dynamics. The required computer memory for a practical implementation of such algorithms is considerably less than that required by the simple cell mapping algorithm since they allow for a recursive partitioning of state space for trajectory analysis. The second type of algorithm developed in this paper is a recursive unraveling algorithm based on adaptive integration and recursive partitioning of state space into blocks of cells with a view toward its practical implementation. It can find equilibria of the system in the same manner as the simple cell mapping method but is more efficient in locating periodic solutions.     

Least‐squares finite element processes in h,p, k mathematical and computational framework for a non‐linear conservation law

This paper considers numerical simulation of time‐dependent non‐linear partial differential equation resulting from a single non‐linear conservation law in h, p, k mathematical and computational framework in which k=(k₁, k₂) are the orders of the approximation spaces in space and time yielding global differentiability of orders (k₁?1) and (k₂?1) in space and time (hence k‐version of finite element method) using space–time marching process. Time‐dependent viscous Burgers equation is used as a specific model problem that has physical mechanism for viscous dissipation and its theoretical solutions are analytic. The inviscid form, on the other hand, assumes zero viscosity and as a consequence its solutions are non‐analytic as well as non‐unique (Russ. Math. Surv. 1962; 17 (3):145–146; Russ. Math. Surv. 1960; 15 (6):53–111). In references (Russ. Math. Surv. 1962; 17 (3):145–146; Russ. Math. Surv. 1960; 15 (6):53–111) authors demonstrated that the solutions of inviscid Burgers equations can only be approached within a limiting process in which viscosity approaches zero. Many approaches based on artificial viscosity have been published to accomplish this including more recent work on H(Div) least‐squares approach (Commun. Pure Appl. Math. 1965; 18 :697–715) in which artificial viscosity is a function of spatial discretization, which diminishes with progressively refined discretizations. The thrust of the present work is to point out that: (1) viscous form of the Burgers equation already has the essential mechanism of viscosity (which is physical), (2) with progressively increasing Reynolds (Re) number (thereby progressively reduced viscosity) the solutions approach that of the inviscid form, (3) it is possible to compute numerical solutions for any Re number (finite) within hpk framework and space–time least‐squares processes, (4) the space–time residual functional converges monotonically and that it is possible to achieve the desired accuracy, (5) space–time, time marching processes utilizing a single space–time strip are computationally efficient. It is shown that viscous form of the Burgers equation without linearizing provides a physical and viablemechanism for approaching the solutions of inviscid form with progressively increasing Re. Numerical studies are presented and the computed solutions are compared with published work. Copyright © 2008 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Rhythmic precipitate patterns and fractal structure

Liesegang patterns of parallel precipitate bands are obtained when solutions containing co-precipitate ions interdiffuse in a 1D gel matrix.The sparingly soluble salt formed,displays a beautiful stratification of discs of precipitate perpendicular to the 1D tube axis.The Liesegang structures are analyzed from the viewpoint of their fractal nature.Geometric Liesegang patterns are constructed in conformity with the well-known empirical laws such as the time,band spacing and band width laws.The dependence of the band spacing on the initial concentrations of diffusing(outer)and immobile(inner)electrolytes(A0 and B0,respectively)is taken to follow the Matalon-Packter law.Both mathematical fractal dimensions and box-count dimensions are calculated.The fractal dimension is found to increase with increasing A0 and decreasing B0.We also analyze mosaic patterns with random distribution of crystallites,grown under different conditions than the classical Liesegang gel method,and report on their fractal properties.Finally,complex Liesegang patterns wherein the bands are grouped in multiplets are studied,and it is shown that the fractal nature increases with the multiplicity.

Degree theory for multivalued (S) type mappings and fixed point theorems

The main purpose of this paper is devoted to generalizing the results of Browder ^[1,2]. This paper consists of four parts. In the first part, we introduce the concepts of multivalued (S) and (S) type mappings and the concepts of the limits of multivalued (S) and (S) type mappings. These kinds of mappings contain many monotone type mappings, such as maximal monotone mapping, bounded pseudo-monotone mapping and bounded generalized pseudo-monotone mapping, as its special cases. In the second part we define the pseudo-degree for (S) type mapping and the degree for (S) ₊ type mapping. These two kinds of degrees are all the generalizations of the degree defined by Browder ^[1,2].As applications, we utilize the degree theory presented in part 2 to study the existence of solutions for the multivalued operator equations (see part 3) and to obtain some new fixed point theorems in part 4.Research Supported by the National Natural Science Founation of China.     

ON PROBLEM OF NEAREST COMMON FIXED POINT OF NONEXPANSIVE MAPPINGS

The purpose is by using the viscosity approximation method to study the convergence problem of the iterative scheme for an infinite family of nonexpansive mappings and a given contractive mapping in a reflexive Banach space. Under suitable conditions, it was proved that the iterative sequence converges strongly to a common fixed point which was also the unique solution of some variational inequality in a reflexive Banach space. The results presented extend and improve some recent results.     

Chaotic motion of a nonlinear thermoelastic elliptic plate

In the paper the nonlinear dynamic equation of a harmonically forced elliptic plate is derived, with the effects of large deflection of plate and thermoelasticity taken into account. The Melnikov function method is used to give the critical condition for chaotic motion. A demonstrative example is discussed through the Poincaré mapping, phase portrait and time history. Finally the path to chaotic motion is also discussed. Through the theoretical analysis and numerical computation some beneficial conclusions are obtained.

Chaos and Entropy for Interval Maps

In this paper, various chaotic properties and their relationships for interval maps are discussed. It is shown that the proximal relation is an equivalence relation for any zero entropy interval map. The structure of the set of f-nonseparable pairs is well demonstrated and so is its relationship to Li-Yorke chaos. For a zero entropy interval map, it is shown that a pair is a sequence entropy pair if and only if it is f-nonseparable. Moreover, some equivalent conditions of positive entropy which relate to the number “3” are obtained. It is shown that for an interval map if it is topological null, then the pattern entropy of every open cover is of polynomial order, answering a question by Huang and Ye when the space is the closed unit interval.     

Dynamic and Quasi-Static Propagation of Compaction Waves in a Low-Density Epoxy Foam

We conducted dynamic and quasi-static compression experiments with low-density (ρ = 120 kg/m³) epoxy foam specimens. The specimens had a 10.0-mm-square cross-section and a length of 19.3 mm. Dynamic experiments were conducted with a modified split Hopkinson pressure bar (SHPB), and the quasi-static experiments were conducted with a hydraulic load frame device (MTS-810). In both cases, the specimens were loaded from one end at a constant velocity. Equally spaced grid lines were marked on the specimens to monitor the deformation history. Digital images taken at equally spaced time intervals gave the positions of each grid line. These images showed that a constant end-face velocity V produced a compaction wave front that traveled at a constant velocity C in both dynamic and quasi-static experiments. We described these results with a shockwave analysis that used a locking solid material model.     

Exact solutions for the flow of second grade fluid in annulus between torsionally oscillating cylinders

The velocity field and the associated shear stress corresponding to the torsional oscillatory flow of a second grade fluid, between two infinite coaxial circular cylinders, are determined by means of the Laplace and Hankel transforms. At time t = 0, the fluid and both the cylinders are at rest and at t = 0 + , cylinders suddenly begin to oscillate around their common axis in a simple harmonic way having angular frequencies ω 1 and ω 2 . The obtained solutions satisfy the governing differential equation and all imposed initial and boundary conditions. The solutions for the motion between the cylinders, when one of them is at rest, can be obtained from our general solutions. Furthermore, the corresponding solutions for Newtonian fluid are also obtained as limiting cases of our general solutions.     

LARGE RANGE ANALYSIS FOR NONLINEAR DYNAMIC SYSTEMS——ELEMENT MAPPING METHOD

This paper presents a new method for global analysis of nonlinear system. By means of transforming the nonlinear dynamic problems into point mapping forms which are single-valued and continuous, the state space can be regularly divided into a certain number of finitely small triangle elements on which the non-linear mapping can be approximately substituted by the linear mapping given by definition. Hence, the large range distributed problem of the mapping fixed points will be simplified as a process for solving a set of linear equations. Still further, the exact position of the fixed points can be found by the iterative technique. It is convenient to judge the stability of fixed points and the shrinkage zone in the state space by using the deformation matrix of linear mapping. In this paper, the attractive kernel for the stationary fixed points is defined, which makes great advantage for describing the attractive domains of the fixed points. The new method is more convenient and effective than the cell mapping methodl^[1]. And an example for two-dimensional mapping is given.     

C 1 natural element method for strain gradient linear elasticity and its application to microstructures

C 1 natural element method (C 1 NEM) is applied to strain gradient linear elasticity, and size effects on microstructures are analyzed. The shape functions in C 1 NEM are built upon the natural neighbor interpolation (NNI), with interpolation realized to nodal function and nodal gradient values, so that the essential boundary conditions (EBCs) can be imposed directly in a Galerkin scheme for partial differential equations (PDEs). In the present paper, C 1 NEM for strain gradient linear elasticity is constructed, and several typical examples which have analytical solutions are presented to illustrate the effectiveness of the constructed method. In its application to microstructures, the size effects of bending stiffness and stress concentration factor (SCF) are studied for microspeciem and microgripper, respectively. It is observed that the size effects become rather strong when the width of spring for microgripper, the radius of circular perforation and the long axis of elliptical perforation for microspeciem come close to the material characteristic length scales. For the U-shaped notch, the size effects decline obviously with increasing notch radius, and decline mildly with increasing length of notch.     

Dynamics of inner mappings

We study properties of invariant sets of dynamical systems generated by inner mappings. We prove that if x is a nonwandering point of a finitely multiple inner mapping, then not only its positive trajectory O⁺(x) consists of nonwandering points but also the negative trajectory O⁻(x) contains at least one partial semitrajectory consisting of nonwandering points.
