Solution of the Neumann problem for the Laplace equation

For fairly general open sets it is shown that we can express a solution of the Neumann problem for the Laplace equation in the form of a single layer potential of a signed measure which is given by a concrete series. If the open set is simply connected and bounded then the solution of the Dirichlet problem is the double layer potential with a density given by a similar series.     

Jump relations of the quadruple layer potential on a regular surface in three dimensions

Neumann and Robin problems in a cracked domain with jump conditions on cracks

The boundary value problem for the Laplace equation is studied on a domain with smooth compact boundary and with smooth internal cracks. The Neumann or the Robin condition is given on the boundary of the domain. The jump of the function and the jump of its normal derivative is prescribed on the cracks. The solution is looked for in the form of the sum of a single layer potential and a double layer potential. The solvability of the corresponding integral equation is determined and the explicit solution of this equation is given in the form of the Neumann series. Estimates for the absolute value of the solution of the boundary value problem and for the absolute value of the gradient of the solution are presented.     

Simple layer potential method for domains having external corners

This note investigates the simple layer potential method for domains having external corners. The singular behaviour of simple layer density at the corners is studied for the Neumann problem of Helmholtz's equation. A numerical technique of solving the integral equation for this problem is proposed. This technique takes the singularity of the solution into consideration. Some numerical examples are given to show the applicability of the present method.     

Solution of the Robin problem for the Laplace equation

For open sets with a piecewise smooth boundary it is shown that we can express a solution of the Robin problem for the Laplace equation in the form of a single layer potential of a signed measure which is given by a concrete series.     

The double layer potential operator over polyhedral domains i: solvability in weighted sobolev spaces

We consider the integral equation, (λ-K)u=f, where K is the double layer (harmonic) potential operator on the boundary of a bounded polyhedron in R³ and λ∣λ∣≥1 is a complex constant. We study the mapping properties of λ - K in weighted Sobolev spaces, applying Mellin transformation techniques directly to the integral equation.     

A note on the ellipticity of the single layer potential in two-dimensional linear elastostatics

We prove that the single layer potential operator of planar linear elastostatics is elliptic in [H^−1/2(Γ)]², if the domain Ω is scaled appropriately.     

A symmetric boundary element method for the Stokes problem in multiple connected domains

We consider a symmetric Galerkin boundary element method for the Stokes problem with general boundary conditions including slip conditions. The boundary value problem is reformulated as Steklov–Poincaré boundary integral equation which is then solved by a standard approximation scheme. An essential tool in our approach is the invertibility of the single layer potential which requires the definition of appropriate factor spaces due to the topology of the domain. Here we describe a modified boundary element approach to solve Dirichlet boundary value problems in multiple connected domains. A suitable extension of the standard single layer potential leads to an operator which is elliptic on the original function space. Copyright © 2003 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

The nonlinear boundary layer to the Boltzmann equation with mixed boundary conditions for hard potentials

In this paper, the existence of boundary layer solutions to the Boltzmann equation for hard potential with mixed boundary condition, i.e., a linear combination of Dirichlet boundary condition and diffuse reflection boundary condition at the wall, is considered. The boundary condition is imposed on the incoming particles, and the solution is supposed to approach to a global Maxwellian in the far field. As for the problem with Dirichlet boundary condition (Chen et al., 2004 [5]), the existence of a solution highly depends on the Mach number of the far field Maxwellian. Furthermore, an implicit solvability condition on the boundary data which shows the codimension of the boundary data is related to the number of the positive characteristic speeds is also given.

Potential of a simple layer for a torus with density depending on the distance from a tangent plane to the center

Using a bulk potential, we construct a one-dimensional toroidal layer with corresponding density for the mass distribution. We determine the density of a simple layer, and also find the potential of a simple layer distributed along the surface of an elliptical torus of revolution with density depending on distance as measured along the normal between a tangent plane and the center of the torus.Translated from Matematicheskie Metody i Fiziko-Mekhanicheskie Polya, No. 29, pp. 85–87, 1989.

Nonlinear stability of boundary layers for the Boltzmann equation with cutoff soft potentials

The study on the boundary layer is important in both mathematics and physics. This paper considers the nonlinear stability of boundary layer solutions for the Boltzmann equation with cutoff soft potentials when the Mach number of the far field is less than −1. Unlike the collision frequency is strictly positive in the hard potential or hard sphere model, the collision frequency has no positive lower bound for the cutoff soft potentials, so the decay in time cannot be expected. Instead, the present paper proves that the solution will always be in a small region around the boundary layer by noticing the decay property of collision operator in velocity.

The planar Dirichlet problem for the Stokes equations

The Dirichlet problem for the Stokes equations is studied in a planar domain. We construct a solution of this problem in form of appropriate potentials and determine the unknown source densities via integral equation systems on the boundary of the domain. The solution is given explicitly in the form of a series. As a consequence we determine a solution of the Dirichlet problem for a compressible Stokes system and a solution of a boundary value problem on a domain with cracks.

Strong solutions of the Navier–Stokes equations based on the maximal Lorentz regularity theorem in Besov spaces

We show existence and uniqueness theorem of local strong solutions to the Navier–Stokes equations with arbitrary initial data and external forces in the homogeneous Besov space with both negative and positive differential orders which is an invariant space under the change of scaling. If the initial data and external forces are small, then the local solutions can be extended globally in time. Our solutions also belong to the Serrin class in the usual Lebesgue space. The method is based on the maximal Lorentz regularity theorem of the Stokes equations in the homogeneous Besov spaces. As an application, we may handle such singular data as the Dirac measure and the single layer potential supported on the sphere.     

Anti-plane elastodynamic analysis of cracked graded orthotropic layers with viscous damping

Stress analysis is carried out in a graded orthotropic layer containing a screw dislocation undergoing time-harmonic deformation. Energy dissipation in the layer is modeled by viscous damping. The stress fields are Cauchy singular at the location of dislocation. The dislocation solution is utilized to derive integral equations for multiple interacting cracks with any location and orientation in the layer. These equations are solved numerically thereby obtaining the dislocation density function on the crack surfaces and stress intensity factors of cracks. The dependencies of stress intensity factors of cracks on the excitation frequency of applied traction and material properties of the layer are investigated. The analysis allows the determination of natural frequencies of a cracked layer. Furthermore, the interactions of two cracks having various configurations are studied.
