Magnetic Properties of Iron-Based Amorphous Metal Wires

It has been studied how the conditions of machining and the elastic tensile stresses affect the magnetic properties of amorphous metal wires of composition Fe₇₅Si₁₀B₁₅ produced by drawing from a melt. The magnetic characteristics of wires subjected to both thermal treatment and treatment with a continuous electric current of different magnitude have been investigated. The residual induction of wires is their magnetic parameter most sensitive to the conditions of treatment. The dependences of the residual induction on temperature and on the magnitude of the treating electric current are qualitatively similar. The greatest changes in residual induction are observed in the range of treating electric currents from 0.5 to 0.8 A, which can be associated with the processes of structural relaxation and crystallization occurring in the wires. The run of the dependence of the residual induction on the magnitude of tensile stresses is nonmonotonic in character and is determined by the level of internal hardening stresses of the test wires.     

Some inverse problems of internal-diffusion kinetics of adsorption

Methods are proposed for determining the diffusion coefficients of adsorbed molecules and the adsorption isotherms from given concentrations of the solutes in the external solution. The methods are based on a comparison of experimental data with the numerical results produced by a mathematical model of internal-diffusion kinetics of adsorption from a constant bounded volume.Translated from Vychislitel'naya i Prikladnaya Matematika, No. 66, pp. 41–46, 1988.     

Asymptotic estimates of approximation of continuous periodic functions by Fourier sums

Asymptotic estimates, expressed in terms of the value of the modulus of continuity of r-th order (r2) at the point t=/n of a functionf C ₂ or of the (, )-derivative of a functionf C _B C, are established for the deviations of continuous periodic functions from their Fourier sums.Translated from Ukrainskii Matematicheskii Zhurnal, Vol. 42, No. 6, pp. 747–755, June, 1990.     

Penalty method bounds for variational inequalities with cone constraints

An O() rate of convergence bound is established for a version of the penalty method for variational inequalities in a reflexive Banach space that are associated with a strongly monotone Lipschitz operator and are subject to cone constraints. It is shown that the fictitious domain method can be interpreted as a penalty method, and the corresponding convergence theorems can be deduced from the general penalty-method theorems. An error bound of the Galerkin method for the penalty problem is proved for the case of variational inequalities in a Banach space densely embedded in a Hilbert space. A convergence theorem is given for an iteration process solving the Galerkin-method finite-dimensional problem.Kiev University.

Hamilton's Principle and Rankine–Hugoniot Conditions for General Motions of Mixtures

In previous papers [1, 2], we presented hyperbolic governing equations and jump conditions for barotropic fluid mixtures. Now we extend our results to the most general case of twocomponent media. We obtain governing equations for each component. This is not a system of conservation laws. Nevertheless, using Hamilton's principle we are able to obtain a complete set of Rankine–Hugoniot conditions. For the twofluid case, the jump relations do not involve the conservation of the total momentum and the total energy.Sommario. In precedenti lavori [1, 2] sono state dedotte equazioni di governo iperboliche e condizioni di salto per miscele fluide barotropiche. I risultati sono estesi al caso più generale di mezzi a due componenti, ottenendo le equazioni di governo per ciascun componente. Questo sistema non è derivabile dalle leggi di conservazione. Nondimeno, usando il principio di Hamilton è possibile ottenere un insieme completo di condizioni di Rankine–Hugoniot. Nel caso dei due fluidi, le condizioni di salto non coinvolgono la conservazione del momento e dell'energia totali.
