On linear and nonlinear Rossby waves in an ocean

This paper deals with recent developments of linear and nonlinear Rossby waves in an ocean. Included are also linear Poincaré, Rossby, and Kelvin waves in an ocean. The dispersion diagrams for Poincaré, Kelvin and Rossby waves are presented. Special attention is given to the nonlinear Rossby waves on a β-plane ocean. Based on the perturbation analysis, it is shown that the nonlinear evolution equation for the wave amplitude satisfies a modified nonlinear Schrödinger equation. The solution of this equation represents solitary waves in a dispersive medium. In other words, the envelope of the amplitude of the waves has a soliton structure and these envelope solitons propagate with the group velocity of the Rossby waves. Finally, a nonlinear analytical model is presented for long Rossby waves in a meridional channel with weak shear. A new nonlinear wave equation for the amplitude of large Rossby waves is derived in a region where fluid flows over the recirculation core. It is shown that the governing amplitude equations for the inner and outer zones are both KdV type, where weak nonlinearity is balanced by weak dispersion. In the inner zone, the nonlinear amplitude equation has a new term proportional to the 3/2 power of the difference between the wave amplitude and the critical amplitude, and this term occurs to account for a nonlinearity due to the flow over the vortex core. The solution of the amplitude equations with the linear shear flow represents the solitary waves. The present study deals with the lowest mode (n=1) analysis. An extension of the higher modes (n?2) of this work will be made in a subsequent paper.     

Rigid Ball-Polyhedra in Euclidean 3-Space

A ball-polyhedron is the intersection with non-empty interior of finitely many (closed) unit balls in Euclidean $3$ -space. One can represent the boundary of a ball-polyhedron as the union of vertices, edges, and faces defined in a rather natural way. A ball-polyhedron is called a simple ball-polyhedron if at every vertex exactly three edges meet. Moreover, a ball-polyhedron is called a standard ball-polyhedron if its vertex–edge–face structure is a lattice (with respect to containment). To each edge of a ball-polyhedron, one can assign an inner dihedral angle and say that the given ball-polyhedron is locally rigid with respect to its inner dihedral angles if the vertex–edge–face structure of the ball-polyhedron and its inner dihedral angles determine the ball-polyhedron up to congruence locally. The main result of this paper is a Cauchy-type rigidity theorem for ball-polyhedra stating that any simple and standard ball-polyhedron is locally rigid with respect to its inner dihedral angles.     

The independence number of an edge‐chromatic critical graph

A graph G with maximum degree Δ and edge chromatic number χ′(G)>Δ is edge‐Δ‐critical if χ′(G?e)=Δ for every edge e of G. It is proved here that the vertex independence number of an edge‐Δ‐critical graph of order n is less than . For large Δ, this improves on the best bound previously known, which was roughly ; the bound conjectured by Vizing, which would be best possible, is . © 2010 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Construction of a minimax solution for an eikonal-type equation

A formula for a minimax (generalized) solution of the Cauchy-Dirichlet problem for an eikonal-type equation is proved in the case of an isotropic medium providing that the edge set is closed; the boundary of the edge set can be nonsmooth. A technique of constructing a minimax solution is proposed that uses methods from the theory of singularities of differentiable mappings. The notion of a bisector, which is a representative of symmetry sets, is introduced. Special points of the set boundary—pseudovertices—are singled out and bisector branches corresponding to them are constructed; the solution suffers a “gradient catastrophe” on these branches. Having constructed the bisector, one can generate the evolution of wave fronts in smoothness domains of the generalized solution. The relation of the problem under consideration to one class of time-optimal dynamic control problems is shown. The efficiency of the developed approach is illustrated by examples of analytical and numerical construction of minimax solutions.     

On the shepherding of Uranian epsilon ring

To explain the long-term existence of Uranian narrow rings, we study the dynamical evolution of Uranian epsilon ring under the influence of its two shepherding satellites: Cordelia and Ophelia. The model of planar-elliptic restricted three-body problem is employed, in which the three bodies are Uranus, a satellite and a test particle. Dissipations due to interparticle collisions are also taken into consideration. A mapping system has been obtained based on the differential equation system. Numerical results show that only those particles originally lying in the libration region of the resonance can be shepherded. The size of the libration region depends mainly on the orbital eccentricity and mass of the shepherd satellite. For the outer shepherd Ophelia with larger orbital eccentricity, if its mass is a third of the nominal mass 2.5 × 10¹⁹ g, most of the orbits are regular and the outer edge of the ring can be shepherded, but more fuzzy than the inner edge. Thus we infer that Ophelia has a smaller mass.     

A Fast Algorithm For Finding A Maximum Free Multiflow In An Inner Eulerian Network And Some Generalizations

be a network, where is an undirected graph with nodes and edges, is a set of specified nodes of , called terminals, and each edge of has a nonnegative integer capacity . If the total capacity of edges with one end at is even for every non-terminal node , then is called inner Eulerian. A free multiflow is a collection of flows between arbitrary pairs of terminals such that the total flow through each edge does not exceed its capacity. In this paper we first generalize a method in Karzanov [11] to find a maximum integer free multiflow in an inner Eulerian network, in time, where is the complexity of finding a maximum flow between two terminals. Next we extend our algorithm to solve the so-called laminar locking problem on multiflows, also in time. We then consider analogs of the above problems in inner balanced directed networks, which means that for each non-terminal node , the sums of capacities of arcs entering and leaving are the same. We show that for such a network a maximum integer free multiflow can be constructed in time, and then extend this result to the corresponding locking problem. Received: March 24, 1997     

Homogenization with corrector for a multidimensional periodic elliptic operator near an edge of an inner gap

For a second order differential operator A \mathcal{A} _ε  = −div g(x/ε)∇ + ε ⁻²p(x/ε) in L ₂(ℝ ^d ) with periodic coefficients and small parameter ε > 0 we study an approximation of the resolvent of A \mathcal{A} _ε at a point close to an edge of an inner gap in the spectrum of A \mathcal{A} _ε . Under certain regularity conditions, we construct an approximation (with a first order corrector taken into account) for the resolvent with error estimate of order O(ε ²). We show that a proper effective operator and a proper corrector are associated to each (regular) edge of the gap. Bibliography: 14 titles.     

Almost approximately inner product preserving mappings

Summary. Motivated by previous papers dealing with mappings preserving the inner product almost everywhere as well as by stability results for the orthogonality equation we investigate a combination of these two problems. We show that a mapping that preserves inner product approximately and up to a negligible set of arguments has to be almost everywhere close to an exact solution of the orthogonality equation.     

Boundary characteristic point regularity for semilinear reaction-diffusion equations: towards an ode criterion

The classical problem of regularity of boundary characteristic points for semilinear heat equations with homogeneous Dirichlet conditions is considered. The Petrovskii ( 2?{loglog} ) \left( {2\sqrt {{\log \log }} } \right) criterion (1934) of the boundary regularity for the heat equation can be adapted to classes of semilinear parabolic equations of reaction–diffusion type and takes the form of an ordinary differential equation (ODE) regularity criterion. Namely, after a special matching with a boundary layer, the regularity problem reduces to a onedimensional perturbed nonlinear dynamical system for the first Fourier-like coefficient of the solution in an inner region. A similar ODE criterion, with an analogous matching procedures, is shown formally to exist for semilinear fourth order biharmonic equations of reaction-diffusion type. Extensions to regularity problems of backward paraboloid vertices in \mathbbR^N {\mathbb{R}^N} are discussed. Bibliography: 54 titles. Illustrations: 1 figure.     

Adaptive techniques for Landau–Lifshitz–Gilbert equation with magnetostriction

In this paper we propose a time–space adaptive method for micromagnetic problems with magnetostriction. The considered model consists of coupled Maxwell's, Landau–Lifshitz–Gilbert (LLG) and elastodynamic equations. The time discretization of Maxwell's equations and the elastodynamic equation is done by backward Euler method, the space discretization is based on Whitney edge elements and linear finite elements, respectively. The fully discrete LLG equation reduces to an ordinary differential equation, which is solved by an explicit method, that conserves the norm of the magnetization.     

The wave field generated by a centre of rotation in an unbounded elastic medium with a semi-infinite conical crack

The dynamic stress intensity factor at the edge of a semi-infinite conical crack when the medium is loaded by a non-stationary centre of rotation is determined. A centre of rotation is understood to be a set of four forces of equal magnitude that act in the same plane and form pairs having the same direction of rotation.¹ If the magnitude of these forces is time dependent, i.e., their application is non-stationary, they form a non-stationary centre of rotation. The solution of the problem required the use of methods of integral transformations and discontinuous solutions, which reduced the problem to an integral differential equation in Laplace transform space. The combined use of the orthogonal polynomial method and time discretization to solve the equation enabled a formula for the stress intensity factor to be obtained.     

Buckling of an annular plate under tensile point loading

In this paper, we address the stability of an elastic thin annular plate stretched by two point loads that are located on the outer boundary. A roller support is considered on the outer boundary while the inner edge of the plate is free. Muskhelishvili’s theory of complex potentials has been applied to obtain a solution of the plane problem in the form of a power series. The buckling problem has been solved using the Rayleigh–Ritz method, based on the energy criterion. The critical Euler force and the respective buckling mode have been computed. Dependence between the critical force and the relative orifice size has been illustrated. Analysis of the results has shown that a symmetric buckling mode takes place for a sufficiently large hole, with the greatest deflection observed around the hole along the force line. However, an antisymmetric buckling mode occurs for relatively small holes, with the greatest deflection being along a line that is orthogonal to the force line.     

On the generalized Fréchet functional equation with constant coefficients and its stability

We study a generalization of the Fréchet functional equation, stemming from a characterization of inner product spaces. We show, in particular, that under some weak additional assumptions each solution of such an equation is additive. We also obtain a theorem on the Ulam type stability of the equation. In its proof we use a fixed point result to show the existence of an exact solution of the equation that is close to a given approximate solution.

Inverse Sturm–Liouville problem on equilateral regular tree

In this article, we consider a spectral problem generated by the Sturm–Liouville equation on the edges of an equilateral regular tree. It is assumed that the Dirichlet boundary conditions are imposed at the pendant vertices and continuity and Kirchhoff's conditions at the interior vertices. The potential in the Sturm–Liouville equations, the same on each edge, is real, symmetric with respect to the middle of an edge and belongs to L ₂(0,?a) where a is the length of an edge. Conditions are obtained on a sequence of real numbers necessary and sufficient to be the spectrum of the considered spectral problem.     

A mixed boundary value problem for a singularly perturbed reaction-diffusion equation in an L-shaped domain

A mixed boundary value problem for a singularly perturbed reaction-diffusion equation in an L-shaped domain is considered for when the solution has singularities at the corners of the domain. The densification of the Shishkin mesh near the inner corner where different boundary conditions meet is such that the solution obtained by the classical five-point difference scheme converges to the solution of the initial problem in the mesh norm L _?? ^h uniformly with respect to the small parameter with almost second order, i.e., as a smooth solution. Numerical analysis confirms the theoretical result.     

The embedding formula for an electromagnetic diffraction problem

Embedding formulas are powerful tools that enable one to reduce the dimension of the space of variables for a diffraction problem. Let a scatterer be finite, planar, and perfectly conducting. The idea of the method is to replace the initial problem of diffraction of a plane wave by construction of an edge Green’s function, i.e., to solve a problem with a source located near the edge of a scatterer. An embedding formula is an integral relation connecting the solution of the initial plane wave incidence problem with the edge Green’s function. Earlier, embedding formulas have been derived for acoustic and elasticity problems. Here we derive an embedding formula for an electromagnetic problem.

On the construction of second-to-fourth-order accurate approximations of spatial derivatives on an arbitrary set of points

The method of undetermined coefficients generates a set of fixed-order approximations of spatial derivatives on an irregular stencil. An additional condition is proposed that singles out a unique scheme from this set. The resulting second-to-fourth order accurate approximations are applied to solving Poisson’s and the biharmonic equations. The bending of a plate supported by an edge, the nonlinear bending of a circular plate, and two-dimensional problems in solid mechanics are discussed. A method is proposed for constructing oriented approximations, which are validated by solving an advection equation.
