Predictor homotopy analysis method and its application to some nonlinear problems

The purpose of this paper is to present a kind of analytical method so-called Predictor homotopy analysis method (PHAM) to predict the multiplicity of the solutions of nonlinear differential equations with boundary conditions. This method is very useful especially for those boundary value problems which admit multiple solutions and furthermore is capable to calculate all branches of the solutions simultaneously. As illustrative examples, the method is checked by the model of mixed convection flows in a vertical channel and a nonlinear model arising in heat transfer which both admit multiple (dual) solutions.     

改进的PNC方法及其在非线性偏微分方程多解问题中的应用

2017年，李昭祥等提出了一种偏牛顿-校正法（Partial Newton-Correction Method，简记为PNC方法），并利用它成功地计算出了三类非线性偏微分方程的多重不稳定解.本文在PNC方法的基础上，提出并发展了一种改进的PNC方法.首先，利用Nehari流形$\mathcal{N}$与零平凡解的可分离性，建立并证明了$\mathcal{N}$的某特殊子流形$\mathcal{M}$上的全局分离定理及其推广（即局部分离定理）.全局分离定理只跟非线性偏微分算子或相应的非线性泛函本身有关，而与具体的计算方法无关.对一些典型的非线性偏微分方程多解问题（比如，Henon方程问题），该全局分离定理的分离条件，经验证是成立的.另一个方面，通过修改或补充原辅助变换的定义，去掉了原辅助变换的奇异性；接着建立并证明了某些非线性偏微分方程问题的新未知解与该非线性偏微分算子零核空间的密切关系；在证明中，去掉了在原奇异变换下所需的标准收敛（standard convergence）假设.最后，计算实例与数值结果验证了改进的PNC方法的可行性和有效性；同时表明子流形$\mathcal{M}$与已知解的可分离性是PNC方法和本文新方法能成功找到多解的关键.     

On methods for continuous systems with quadratic,cubic and quantic nonlinearities

Methods for study of weakly nonlinear continuous systems are discussed. The method of multiple scales is used to analyze the nonlinear response of a relief valve under combined static and dynamic loadings. We determine a second-order approximation to the response of the system for the case of primary resonance. Second, we derive a second-order nonlinear ordinary differential equation that describes the time evolution of a single-mode, the so-called single-mode discretization. Then, we use the multiple scales method to determine second-order approximate solutions of this equation, thereby obtaining the equations describe the modulations of the amplitude and phase of the response. We show that the results of the second approach are erroneous.     

缓变深度分层流体中的准周期波和准孤立波

本文讨论具缓变深度二流体系统中的非线性波,该系统由一不规则底部与一水平固壁间的两层常密度无粘流体所组成.文中用约化摄动法导出了所考虑模型的变系数Korteweg-de Vries方程,并用多重尺度法求出了该方程的近似解,发现底部固壁的不规则变化将产生所谓准周期波和准孤立波.它们的周期、波速和波形将发生缓慢变化,文中给出了准周期波的周期随深度的变化关系式以及准孤立波波幅、波速随深度的变化关系式,底部水平情形和单层流体情形可看成是本文的特例.     

Quasi-rational function solutions of an elliptic equation and its application to solve some nonlinear evolution equations

Using the differential transformation method and the homogeneous balance method, some new solutions of an auxiliary elliptic equation are obtained. These solutions possess the forms of rational functions in terms of trigonometric functions, hyperbolic functions, exponential functions, power functions, elliptic functions and their operation and composite functions and so on, which are so-called quasi-rational function solutions. Based on these new quasi-rational functions solutions, a direct method is proposed to construct the exact solutions of some nonlinear evolution equations with the aid of symbolic computation. The coupled KdV-mKdV equation and Broer-Kaup equations are chosen to illustrate the effectiveness and convenience of the suggested method for obtaining quasi-rational function solutions of nonlinear evolution equations.     

Multiple solutions of mixed convection in a porous medium on semi-infinite interval using pseudo-spectral collocation method

One knows that calculation of all branches of solutions of nonlinear boundary value problems can be difficult even by numerical methods, especially when the boundary conditions occur at infinity. Regarding this matter, this paper considers a model of mixed convection in a porous medium with boundary conditions on semi-infinite interval which admits multiple (dual) solutions. Furthermore, pseudo-spectral collocation method is applied in erudite way to calculate both dual solutions analytically. Comparison to exact solutions reveals reliability and high accuracy of the procedure and convince to be used to obtain multiple solutions of these kind of nonlinear problems.

Bifurcation of Nonlinear Bloch Waves from the Spectrum in the Gross–Pitaevskii Equation

We rigorously analyze the bifurcation of stationary so-called nonlinear Bloch waves (NLBs) from the spectrum in the Gross–Pitaevskii (GP) equation with a periodic potential, in arbitrary space dimensions. These are solutions which can be expressed as finite sums of quasiperiodic functions and which in a formal asymptotic expansion are obtained from solutions of the so-called algebraic coupled mode equations. Here we justify this expansion by proving the existence of NLBs and estimating the error of the formal asymptotics. The analysis is illustrated by numerical bifurcation diagrams, mostly in 2D. In addition, we illustrate some relations of NLBs to other classes of solutions of the GP equation, in particular to so-called out-of-gap solitons and truncated NLBs, and present some numerical experiments concerning the stability of these solutions.

So consequently, the efficiency of the method can be demonstrated.

A discrete generalization of the extended simplest equation method

We modified the so-called extended simplest equation method to obtain discrete traveling wave solutions for nonlinear differential-difference equations. The Wadati lattice equation is chosen to illustrate the method in detail. Further discrete soliton/periodic solutions with more arbitrary parameters, as well as discrete rational solutions, are revealed. We note that using our approach one can also find in principal highly accurate exact discrete solutions for other lattice equations arising in the applied sciences.

Sufficient conditions are given to have multiple positive solutions.     

Note on a nonlinear diffusion system with convection

The critical exponents are established for a nonlinear diffusion system with convection, which are described clearly by the signs of two parameters solving the so-called characteristic algebraic system. It is proved that the convection plays an important role in determining the critical properties of solutions in the balance case. This greatly improves the authors’ previous paper for the same model.     

On the limit cycles,period-doubling,and quasi-periodic solutions of the forced Van der Pol-Duffing oscillator

In this paper, the limit cycles, period-doubling, and quasi-periodic solutions of the forced Van der Pol oscillator and the forced Van der Pol-Duffing oscillator are studied by combining the homotopy analysis method (HAM) with the multi-scale method analytically. Comparisons of the obtained solutions and numerical results show that this method is effective and convenient even when t is large enough, and the convergence of the approximate solutions is discussed by the so-called discrete square residual error. This method is a capable tool for solving this kind of nonlinear problems.     

Solitary wave solutions to the Tzitzeica type equations obtained by a new efficient approach

The properties of Tzitzeica equations in nonlinear optics have received a great attention of many recent studies. In this work, the so-called generalized exponential rational function method (GERFM) has been applied for finding the analytical solution of two nonlinear partial differential equations type of equations, namely Tzitzeica-Dodd-Bullough and Tzitzeica equation. The proposed method provides a wide range of closed-form travelling solutions leading to a very effective and simply-applied method by means of a symbolic computation system. The method not only provides a general form of solutions with some free parameters but also shows potential application to other types of nonlinear partial differential equations.     

Model Order Reduction for Unsteady Aerodynamic Applications

In this work a nonlinear model order reduction approach for unsteady aerodynamic applications is presented. It is based on Proper Orthogonal Decomposition (POD). Given a set of snapshots, which are solutions to the full order model, POD yields an optimal basis for representing reduced order solutions of the governing equations. The idea of the reduced order modeling approach in this work is to formulate each time step of the unsteady equations as a steady problem. This yields the so-called unsteady residual. The unsteady residual is then minimized in the space spanned by the POD basis vectors. As this space is of reduced size, the minimization problem is as well. (© 2013 Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co.
