Non - Classical Mixed Interface Problems for Anisotropic Bodies

The paper deals with the three-dimensional mathematical problems of the elasticity theory of anisotropic piece-wise homogeneous bodies. Non - classical mixed type boundary value problems are studied when on one part (S₁) of the interface the rigid contact conditions (jumps of displacement and stress vectors) are given, while conditions of the non - classical interface Problem H or Problem G are imposed on the remaining part (S₂) of the interface, i. e., in both cases jumps of the normal components of displacement and stress vectors are known on S₂ and, in addition, in the first one (Problem H) the tangent components of the displacement vector and in the second one (Problem G) the tangent components of the stress vector are given from the both sides on S₂. The investigation is carried out by the potential method and the theory of pseudodifferential equations on manifolds with boundary.     

Solution of the Basic Boundary Value Problems of Stationary Thermoelastic Oscillations for Domains Bounded by Spherical Surfaces

The boundary value problems of stationary thermoelastic oscillations are investigated for the entire space with a spherical cavity, when the limit values of a displacement vector and temperature or of a stress vector and heat flow are given on the boundary. Also, consideration is given to the boundary-contact problems when a nonhomogeneous medium fills up the entire space and consists of several homogeneous parts with spherical interface surfaces. Given on an interface surface are differences of the limit values of displacement and stress vectors, also of temperature and heat flow, while given on a free boundary are the limit values of a displacement vector and temperature or of a stress vector and heat flow. Solutions of the considered problems are represented as absolutely and uniformly convergent series.     

Nonclassical boundary value problem for the transport equation

We consider a nonclassical boundary value problem for the transport equation. The particle transport process is described by a stationary linear integro-differential equation, and the outgoing particle flux density on some part of the boundary is specified as the boundary condition. We find the particle flux density for a given outgoing flux and known coefficients of the equation. We show that, under some restrictions on the medium, there exists a unique solution of the problem, which can be represented by an infinite convergent series.     

The Basic Mixed Problem for an Anisotropic Elastic Body

The mixed boundary value problem is considered for an anisotropic elastic body under the condition that a boundary value of the displacement vector is given on some part of the boundary and a boundary value of the generalized stress vector on the remainder. Using the potential method and the theory of singular integral equations with discontinuous coefficients, the existence of a solution of the mixed boundary value problem is proved.     

The Method of Smooth Domains in the Equilibrium Problem for a Plate with a Crack

A free boundary problem is considered of the equilibrium of an elastic plate with a crack. We suppose that some boundary mutual nonpenetration conditions are given on the crack faces in the form of simultaneous equalities and inequalities. We suggest a new approach to posing the problem in a smooth domain although it was stated in a domain with cuts originally. We treat the constraints on the components of the displacement vector and stress tensor on the crack faces as interior constraints, i.e., constraints given on subsets of the smooth domain of a solution.     

Nonclassical boundary value problems for some systems of partial differential equations

On efficient numerical methods for an initial-boundary value problem with nonlocal boundary conditions

Many physical phenomena are modeled by nonclassical hyperbolic boundary value problems with nonlocal boundary conditions. In this paper, the problem of solving the one-dimensional wave equation subject to given initial and non-local boundary conditions is considered. These non-local conditions arise mainly when the data on the boundary cannot be measured directly. Several finite difference methods with low order have been proposed in other papers for the numerical solution of this one dimensional non-classic boundary value problem. Here, we derive a new family of efficient three-level algorithms with higher order to solve the wave equation and also use a Simpson formula with higher order to approximate the integral conditions. Additionally, the fourth-order formula is also adapted to nonlinear equations, in particular to the well-known nonlinear Klein–Gordon equations which many physical problems can be modeled with. Numerical results are presented and are compared with some existing methods showing the efficiency of the new algorithms.     

Stability estimates for solutions of control problems for the Maxwell equations with mixed boundary conditions

We consider extremal problems for the time-harmonic Maxwell equations with mixed boundary conditions for the electric field. Namely, the tangential component of the electric field is given on one part of the boundary, and an impedance boundary condition is posed on the other part. We prove the solvability of the original mixed boundary value problem and the extremal problem. We obtain sufficient conditions on the input data ensuring the stability of solutions of specific extremal problems under certain perturbations of both the performance functional and some functions occurring in the boundary value problem.     

Global superconvergence of finite element methods for parabolic inverse problems

In this article we transform a large class of parabolic inverse problems into a nonclassical parabolic equation whose coefficients consist of trace type functionals of the solution and its derivatives subject to some initial and boundary conditions. For this nonclassical problem, we study finite element methods and present an immediate analysis for global superconvergence for these problems, on basis of which we obtain a posteriori error estimators.

The Nonclassical Boundary-contact Problems of Elasticity for Homogeneous Anisotropic Media

The existence and uniqueness of solutions of the nonclassical boundary-contact problems (i.e., problems with a contact on some part of the boundaries) of elasticity for homogeneous anisotropic media are investigated in Besov and Bessel potential spaces using methods of potential theory and the theory of pseudodifferential equations on manifolds with boundary. The smoothness of the solutions obtained is studied.     

Numerical solutions of some parabolic inverse problems

In this article we transform a large class of parabolic inverse problems into a nonclassical parabolic equation whose coefficients consist of trace type functionals of the solution and its derivatives subject to some initial and boundary conditions. For this nonclassical problem, we introduce a variational form by defining a new function. Both continuous and discrete Galerkin procedures are illustrated in this paper. The error estimates are also derived.     

Stability of solutions to extremal problems of boundary control for stationary heat convection equations

We study extremal problems of boundary control for stationary heat convection equations with Dirichlet boundary conditions on velocity and temperature. As the cost functional we choose the mean square integral deviation of the required temperature field from a given temperature field measured in some part of the flow region. The controls are functions appearing in the Dirichlet conditions on velocity and temperature. We prove the stability of solutions to these problems with respect to certain perturbations of both the quality functional and one of the known functions appearing in the original equations of the model.     

Contact problems with friction for hemitropic solids: boundary variational inequality approach

We study the interior and exterior contact problems for hemitropic elastic solids. We treat the cases when the friction effects, described by Tresca friction (given friction model), are taken into consideration either on some part of the boundary of the body or on the whole boundary. We equivalently reduce these problems to a boundary variational inequality with the help of the Steklov–Poincaré type operator. Based on our boundary variational inequality approach we prove existence and uniqueness theorems for weak solutions. We prove that the solutions continuously depend on the data of the original problem and on the friction coefficient. For the interior problem, necessary and sufficient conditions of solvability are established when friction is taken into consideration on the whole boundary.     

Composite spectral method for solution of the diffusion equation with specification of energy

Many physical subjects are modeled by nonclassical parabolic boundary value problems with nonlocal boundary conditions replacing the classic boundary conditions. In this article, we introduce a new numerical method for solving the one‐dimensional parabolic equation with nonlocal boundary conditions. The approximate proposed method is based upon the composite spectral functions. The properties of composite spectral functions consisting of terms of orthogonal functions are presented and are utilized to reduce the problem to some algebraic equations. The method is easy to implement and yields very accurate result. © 2007 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. Numer Methods Partial Differential Eq, 2008

Inverse problems for elliptic equations in the space: II

We consider inverse problems of finding the right-hand side of a linear second-order elliptic equation of general form. The first boundary value problem is studied. We consider two ways of indicating additional information (overdetermination): the trace of the solution can be given on some lower-dimensional manifold inside the domain, or the normal derivative can be specified on part of the boundary. On the basis of the Fredholm alternative proved in the first part of the present paper for the inverse problems in question, we single out conditions on the given functions under which the inverse problem is uniquely solvable. Various types of such conditions are considered. The study is carried out in the class of continuous functions whose derivatives satisfy the Hölder condition.     

Boundary integral equation method in micropolar elasticity

This paper presents the integral representations of the displacement and rotation fields of the micropolar continuum, and the regularized integral representations of the traction and couple vector. Thus the boundary integral equations and the boundary integro-differential equations are derived. In addition, the formulation for crack problems is given by both the boundary integral equations and the boundary integro-differential equations.     

On a nonlocal problem in function theory

We consider nonlocal boundary value problems for three harmonic functions each of which is defined in its own domain. A contact condition is posed on the common part of the boundaries of these domains, and the Dirichlet or Neumann data (or mixed boundary conditions) are given on the remaining parts of the boundary. We prove the unique solvability of these problems.     

Two-parameter extremum problems of boundary control for stationary thermal convection equations

Two-parameter extremum problems of boundary control are formulated for the stationary thermal convection equations with Dirichlet boundary conditions for velocity and with mixed boundary conditions for temperature. The cost functional is defined as the root mean square integral deviation of the desired velocity (vorticity, or pressure) field from one given in some part of the flow region. Controls are the boundary functions involved in the Dirichlet condition for velocity on the boundary of the flow region and in the Neumann condition for temperature on part of the boundary. The uniqueness of the extremum problems is analyzed, and the stability of solutions with respect to certain perturbations in the cost functional and one of the functional parameters of the original model is estimated. Numerical results for a control problem associated with the minimization of the vorticity norm aimed at drag reduction are discussed.     

A fictitious domain model for the Stokes/Brinkman problem with jump embedded boundary conditions

We present and analyze a new fictitious domain model for the Brinkman or Stokes/Brinkman problems in order to handle general jump embedded boundary conditions (J.E.B.C.) on an immersed interface. Our model is based on algebraic transmission conditions combining the stress and velocity jumps on the interface Σ separating two subdomains: they are well chosen to get the coercivity of the operator. It is issued from a generalization to vector elliptic problems of a previous model stated for scalar problems with jump boundary conditions (Angot (2003, 2005) [2], [3]). The proposed model is first proved to be well-posed in the whole fictitious domain and some sub-models are identified. A family of fictitious domain methods can be then derived within the same unified formulation which provides various interface or boundary conditions, e.g. a given stress of Neumann or Fourier type or a velocity Dirichlet condition. In particular, we prove the consistency of the given-traction E.B.C. method including the so-called do nothing outflow boundary condition.
