Application of local co-ordinate systems to the solution of integral equations referred to plane fluid flow problems

Two-dimensional fluid flow problems expressed in terms of velocity potentials or stream functions are often summarized as boundary-value problems for the Laplace or Poisson equations, or the homogeneous or non-homogeneous biharmonic equations. Simple local co-ordinate systems have been applied to the solution of integral equations associated with these boundary-value problems. This procedure has been shown to be an efficient technique in the numerical solution of fluid flow problems.     

On the method of block element

The problem of block elements used to solve boundary-value problems of continuum mechanics is discussed. An example of constructing a semibounded block element is presented. Pseudodifferential equations describing the block element parameters are derived. The relationship between formulas and methods for calculating wave fields in block elements and layered media is found.     

On the Numerical-Analytic Investigation of Parametrized Problems with Nonlinear Boundary Conditions

We consider a parametrized boundary-value problem containing an unknown parameter both in nonlinear ordinary differential equations and in nonlinear boundary conditions. By using a suitable change of variables, we reduce the original problem to a family of problems with linear boundary conditions plus certain nonlinear algebraic determining equations. We construct a numerical-analytic scheme suitable for studying the solutions of the transformed boundary-value problem.     

Construction of Basis Functions and Their Application to Boundary-Value Problems of Mechanics of Continuous Media

A unified method for constructing basis (eigen) functions is proposed to solve problems of mechanics of continuous media, problems of cubature and quadrature, and problems of approximation of hypersurfaces. Numerical-analytical methods are described, which allow obtaining approximate solutions of internal and external boundary-value problems of mechanics of continuous media of a certain class (both linear and nonlinear). The method is based on decomposition of the sought solutions of the considered partial differential equations into series in basis functions. An algorithm is presented for linearization of partial differential equations and reduction of nonlinear boundary-value problems, which are reduced to systems of linear algebraic equations with respect to unknown coefficients without using traditional methods of linearization.     

Low-frequency dilatational wave propagation through unsaturated porous media containing two immiscible fluids

An analytical theory is presented for the low-frequency behavior of dilatational waves propagating through a homogeneous elastic porous medium containing two immiscible fluids. The theory is based on the Berryman–Thigpen–Chin (BTC) model, in which capillary pressure effects are neglected. We show that the BTC model equations in the frequency domain can be transformed, at sufficiently low frequencies, into a dissipative wave equation (telegraph equation) and a propagating wave equation in the time domain. These partial differential equations describe two independent modes of dilatational wave motion that are analogous to the Biot fast and slow compressional waves in a single-fluid system. The equations can be solved analytically under a variety of initial and boundary conditions. The stipulation of “low frequency” underlying the derivation of our equations in the time domain is shown to require that the excitation frequency of wave motions be much smaller than a critical frequency. This frequency is shown to be the inverse of an intrinsic time scale that depends on an effective kinematic shear viscosity of the interstitial fluids and the intrinsic permeability of the porous medium. Numerical calculations indicate that the critical frequency in both unconsolidated and consolidated materials containing water and a nonaqueous phase liquid ranges typically from kHz to MHz. Thus engineering problems involving the dynamic response of an unsaturated porous medium to low excitation frequencies (e.g., seismic wave stimulation) should be accurately modeled by our equations after suitable initial and boundary conditions are imposed.     

Boundary-value problems for linear equations with a generalized invertible operator in a Banach space with basis

We consider linear boundary-value problems for operator equations with generalized invertible operators in Banach spaces that have bases. Using the technique of generalized inverse operators applied to generalized invertible operators in Banach spaces, we establish conditions for the solvability of linear boundary-value problems for these operator equations and obtain formulas for the representation of their solutions. We consider special cases of these boundary-value problems, namely, so-called n- and d-normally solvable boundary-value problems as well as normally solvable problems for Noetherian operator equations.     

Solving initial–boundary-value creep problems

The Galerkin–Bubnov method with global approximations is used to find approximate solutions to initial–boundary-value creep problems. It is shown that this approach allows obtaining solutions available in the literature. The features of how the solutions of initial–boundary-value problems for oneand three-dimensional models are found are analyzed. The approximate solutions found by the Galerkin–Bubnov method with global approximations is shown to be invariant to the form of the equations of the initial–boundary-value problem. It is established that solutions of initial–boundary-value creep problems can be classified according to the form of operators in the mathematical problem formulation     

Vertical vibrations of elastic foundation resting on saturated half-space

This paper is mainly concerned with the dynamic response of an elastic foun- dation of finite height bounded to the surface of a saturated half-space.The foundation is subjected to time-harmonic vertical loadings.First,the transform solutions for the governing equations of the saturated media are obtained.Then,based on the assumption that the contact between the foundation and the half-space is fully relaxed and the half- space is completely pervious or impervious,this dynamic mixed boundary-value problem can lead to dual integral equations,which can be further reduced to the Fredholm integral equations of the second kind and solved by numerical procedures.In the numerical exam- ples,the dynamic compliances,displacements and pore pressure are developed for a wide range of frequencies and material/geometrical properties of the saturated soil-foundation system.In most of the cases,the dynamic behavior of an elastic foundation resting on the saturated media significantly differs from that of a rigid disc on the saturated half-space. The solutions obtained can be used to study a variety of wave propagation problems and dynamic soil-structure interactions.
