Averaged model of vibration of a damped elastic medium

We consider an initial boundary-value problem used to describe the nonstationary vibration of an elastic medium with large number of small cavities filled with a viscous incompressible fluid. We study the asymptotic behavior of the solution in the case where the diameters of the cavities tend to zero, their number tends to infinity, and the cavities occupy a three-dimensional region. We construct an averaged equation to describe the leading term of the asymptotics. This equation serves as a model of propagation of waves in various media, such as damped soil, rocks, and some biological tissues.     

Quasistationary Approximation in the Rotating Ring Problem

We consider the planar rotation-symmetric motion by inertia of a viscous incompressible fluid in a ring with free boundary. We reduce the corresponding initial-boundary value problem for the Navier–Stokes equations to some problem for a coupled system of one parabolic equation and two ordinary differential equations. We suppose that the coefficient of the derivatives of the sought functions with respect to time (the quasistationary parameter) is small; so the system is singularly perturbed. In this article we construct an asymptotic expansion for a solution to the rotating ring problem in a small quasistationary parameter and obtain a smallness estimate for the difference between the exact and approximate solutions.     

Waves in an Inhomogeneous Tube with a Flowing Two-Phase Fluid

Results of theoretical and mathematical justification of the problem on a pulsating flow of a two-phase barotropic bubbly fluid enclosed in an elastic semi-infinite cylindrical tube inhomogeneous along its length are presented. Linear one-dimensional equations are used. It is assumed that the tube is rigidly attached to the surrounding medium and therefore its displacement in the axial direction is absent. At infinity, the tube material is assumed to be homogeneous. To describe the pressure, flow rate, and displacement of the fluid, a pulsating pressure is given at the tube end. The problem stated is reduced to a singular Sturm-Liouville boundary-value problem, which in turn is reduced to a Volterra-type integral equation. This equation is solved by the method of successive approximations. By assuming that the corresponding potential is integrable, it is proved that these approximations converge to the exact solution of the problem. It is shown that this assumption also covers the very important practical case of piecewise inhomogeneity. For numerical realization, we consider a homogeneous tube with flowing water containing a small amount of bubbles. The effect of the volume content of bubbles on wave characteristics is revealed. In particular, it is stated that, for the oscillation regime selected, an increased bubble volume content decreases the wave velocity and considerably increases the flow speed (rate).     

Asymptotic analysis of a periodic flow in a thin channel with visco-elastic wall

The paper deals with a fluid-structure interaction problem. A non steady-state viscous flow in a thin channel with an elastic wall is considered. The problem contains two small parameters: one of them is the ratio of the thickness of the channel to its length (i.e., to the period in the case of periodic solution); the second is the ratio of the linear density to the stiffness of the wall. For various ratios of these two small parameters, an asymptotic expansion of a periodic solution is constructed and justified by a theorem on the error estimates. To this end we prove the auxiliary results on existence, uniqueness, regularity of solution and some a priori estimates. The leading terms of the asymptotic solution are compared to the Poiseuille flow in a channel with absolutely rigid walls. In critical case a non-standard sixth order equation for the wall displacement is obtained.     

An asymptotic method of solving transient dynamic contact problems of the theory of elasticity for a strip

An asymptotic method is proposed for solving transient dynamic contact problems of the theory of elasticity for a thin strip. The solution of problems by means of the integral Laplace transformation (with respect to time) and the Fourier transformation (with respect to the longitudinal coordinate) reduces to an integral equation in the form of a convolution of the first kind in the unknown Laplace transform of contact stresses under the punch. The zeroth term of the asymptotic form of the solution of the integral equation for large values of the Laplace parameter is constructed in the form of the superposition of solutions of the corresponding Wiener-Hopf integral equations minus the solution of the corresponding integral equation on the entire axis. In solving the Wiener-Hopf integral equations, the symbols of the kernel of the integral equation in the complex plane is presented in special form — in the form of uniform expansion in terms of exponential functions. The latter enables integral equations of the second kind to be obtained for determining the Laplace-Fourier transform of the required contact stresses, which, in turn, is effectively solved by the method of successive approximations. After Laplace inversion of the zeroth term of the asymptotic form of the solution of the integral equations, the asymptotic solution of the transient dynamic contact problem is determined. By way of example, the asymptotic solution of the problem of the penetration of a plane punch into an elastic strip lying without friction on a rigid base is given. Formulae are derived for the active elastic resistance force on the punch of a medium preventing the penetration of the punch, and the law of penetration of the punch into the elastic strip is obtained, taking into account the elastic stress wave reflected from the strip face opposite the punch and passing underneath it.     

Justification asymptotique des hypothèses de Kirchhoff-Love pour une coque encastrée linéairement élastique

The displacement vector of a linearly elastic shell can be computed by using the twodimensional Koiter's model, based on the a priori Kirchhoff-Love assumptions. These hypotheses imply that the displacement of any point of the shell is an affine function of the transverse variable x₃. The term independent of x₃ of this approximation is equal to the displacement vector of the two-dimensional Koiter's model. The term linear in x₃ depends on the rotation vector of the normal. After an appropriate scaling, we here estimate the difference between the three-dimensional displacement and the affine function in the case of shells clamped along their entire lateral face. Besides, in the case of shells with uniformly elliptic middle surface, taking into account the term depending of the rotation of the normal, allows to improve the asymptotic estimate between the three-dimensionnal displacement and Koiter's bidimensional displacement.     

Peristaltic motion of micropolar fluid in circular cylindrical tubes: Effect of wall properties

In this paper, peristaltic motion of micropolar fluid in a circular cylindrical flexible tube with viscoelastic or elastic wall properties has been considered. A finite difference scheme is developed to solve the governing equations of motion resulting from a perturbation technique for small values of amplitude ratio. The time mean axial velocity profiles are presented for the case of free pumping and analysed to observe the influence of wall properties for various values of micropolar fluid parameters. In the case of viscoelastic wall, the effect of viscous damping on mean flow reversal at the boundary is seen.     

Resonant Flow of a Rotating Fluid Past an Obstacle: The General Case

We consider the flow of a rotating fluid past an antisymmetric obstacle placed on the axis of a cylindrical tube, for the case when the upstream flow is nearly resonant, or critical, so that the speed of a free linear long wave is nearly zero in the frame of reference of the obstacle. The perturbed flow is dominated by the resonant mode, whose amplitude satisfies a forced Korteweg—de Vries equation in this general case when the upstream flow contains radial shear andjor radially dependent angular velocity.

Wall effects on the slow steady motion of a particle in a viscous incompressible fluid

In this paper, asymptotic expansions with respect to small Reynolds numbers are proved for the slow steady motion of an arbitrary particle in a viscous, incompressible fluid past a single plane wall. The flow problem is modelled by a certain boundary value problem for the stationary, nonlinear Navier-Stokes equations. The coefficients of these expansions are the solutions of various, linear Stokes problems which can be constructed by single layer potentials and corresponding boundary integral equations on the boundary surface of the particle. Furthermore, some asymptotic estimates at small Reynolds numbers are presented for the slow steady motion of an arbitrary particle in a viscous, incompressible fluid between two parallel, plane walls and in an infinitely long, rectilinear cylinder of arbitrary cross section. In the case of the flow problem with a single plane wall, the paper is based on a thesis, which the author has written under the guidance of Professor Dr. Wolfgang L. Wendland.

The thermal wake of a streamlined body

The stationary problem of the thermal wake behind a body around which there is a flow of a viscous incompressible fluid is considered within the framework of the full heat-conduction equation. It is assumed that the solution of the corresponding hydrodynamic problem is known. In the case of the hydrodynamic problem, theorems of existence [1,2] and uniqueness [1] have been proved and the leading term of the expansion [1, 3] at an infinitely remote point has been obtained together with estimates of the remaining terms [1, 4]. Work mainly carried out within the framework of the boundary layer approximation [5] is concerned with the solution of the thermal problem.     

A Robin–Dirichlet problem for a nonlinear wave equation with the source term containing a nonlinear integral

In this paper, we consider the Robin–Dirichlet problem for a nonlinear wave equation with the source term containing a nonlinear integral. Using the Faedo–Galerkin method and the linearization method for nonlinear terms, we prove the existence and uniqueness of a weak solution. We also discuss an asymptotic expansion of high order in a small parameter of a weak solution.     

Asymptotic decay of solutions of the liouville equation under perturbations

We consider the Cauchy problem for a perturbed Liouville equation. An asymptotic solution is constructed with respect to the perturbation parameter by the two-scale expansion method; this construction can be applied over long time intervals. The main result is the definition of a deformation of the leading term of the asymptotic expansion within a slow time scale.

On the solvability of a self-similar problem of forced convection

We consider a problem, described by a third order ordinary differential equation, that concerns nonisothermal flow of a viscous fluid through pipes. A study is made of a nonlinear boundary value problem for specified values of the thermal flow and a given Peclet number. Non-solvability of the boundary value problem is shown for parameter values larger than some critical value.Translated from Dinamicheskie Sistemy, No. 5, pp. 59–62, 1986.     

Linear stationary surface waves over a rough bottom

We consider the linear formulation of the 3-dimensional problem of a stationary flow with a free surface over a rough bottom of an irrotational capillary heavy ideal incompressible fluid. For fast near-critical flows we derive an approximate equation for the free surface elevation. We express a fundamental solution to the problem in terms of contour integrals and establish its asymptotic behavior at large distances from the origin.     

On the viscous Allen-Cahn and Cahn-Hilliard systems with willmore regularization

We consider the viscous Allen-Cahn and Cahn-Hilliard models with an additional term called the nonlinear Willmore regularization. First, we are interested in the well-posedness of these two models. Furthermore, we prove that both models possess a global attractor. In addition, as far as the viscous Allen-Cahn equation is concerned, we construct a robust family of exponential attractors, i.e. attractors which are continuous with respect to the perturbation parameter. Finally, we give some numerical simulations which show the effects of the viscosity term on the anisotropic and isotropic Cahn-Hilliard equation.     

Vibrations of a cylinder in a concentric vessel filled with a two-layer fluid

A hybrid vibrational system containing a solid (a cylinder) with an elastic connection to a coaxial cylindrical cavity, completely filled with a heavy ideal stably stratified two-layer fluid, is considered. The combined self-consistent vibrations of the body and the fluid (of the internal waves) are studied. An explicit solution of the internal boundary value problem of an inhomogeneous liquid in an annular domain for a specified motion of the body is obtained. An integrodifferential equation of the Newton type is constructed on the basis of this. This equation describes the self-consistent oscillations of the cylinder. In the case of weak coupling of the interaction between the solid and the medium, an approximate solution is obtained using asymptotic methods and an analysis is carried out. Qualitative effects of the mutual effect of the motions of the cylinder and the fluid are found.     

Analyzing of the effect of the dusty fluid,anisotropy and layered of the wall on the wave propagation

This study considers the propagation of time harmonic waves in, prestressed, anisotropic elastic tubes filled with viscous fluid containing dusty particles. The fluid is assumed to be incompressible and Newtonian. The tube material is considered to be incompressible, anisotropic, and elastic. The tube is subjected to a static inner pressure P_i and an axial stretch λ. Utilizing the theory of “Superposing small deformations on large initial static deformations”, differential equations governing wave propagation inside the tube are obtained in terms of cylindrical coordinates. Analytical solutions for the equations of motion for the dust and the fluid are obtained, and expressed numerically. The dispersion relation is obtained as a function of the stretch, the thickness ratio and the parameters for dusty particles.     

On the Voitkunskii Amfilokhiev Pavlovskii Model of Motion of Aqueous Polymer Solutions

We study the mathematical properties of the model of motion of aqueous polymer solutions (Voitkunskii, Amfilokhiev, Pavlovskii, 1970) and its modifications in the limiting case of small relaxation times (Pavlovskii, 1971). In both cases, we examine plane unsteady laminar flows. In the first case, the properties of the flows are similar to those of the flow of an ordinary viscous fluid. In the second case, there may exist weak discontinuities that are preserved during the motion. We also address the steady flow problem for a dilute aqueous polymer solution moving in a cylindrical tube under a longitudinal pressure gradient. In this case, a flow with rectilinear trajectories (an analog of the classical Poiseuille flow) is possible. However, in contrast to the latter, the pressure in this flow depends on all three spatial variables.
