This method is suitable for the systems with even non-linearities as well as with odd non-linearities. It can be viewed as a generalization of the two-variable expansion procedure. Using the present method we obtained a modified Krylov-Bogoliubov method. Four numerical examples are presented which served to demonstrate the effectiveness of the present method.

Resonant-triad instability of a pre-stressed incompressible elastic plate

The dynamic stability properties of a pre-stressed incompressible elastic plate are studied in this paper with respect to perturbations in the form of one near-neutral mode and two non-neutral modes interacting resonantly.

The Saint Venant's conjecture for convex plane domains , having symmetry about two orthogonal axes, is that the maximum of |u| occurs only at the points on which are nearest to the origin. G. Sweers constructed one such domain and claimed that either the conjecture fails for or for ={(x, y);u(x, y) >}, which again is convex. We give a totally different proof of this claim. Our proof brings out clearly the reason for the failure of the conjecture and also allows us to construct many more such domains.

A specific example is presented to demonstrate the validity and accuracy of our 09 method by comparing our results with numerical ones, which are in good agreement with each other even for relatively large .

A stochastic bifurcation here means (a) the qualitative change of stationary measures or (b) the change of stability of invariant measures and the occurrence of new invariant measures for the random dynamical system generated by (1). The first type of bifurcation can be observed when studying the solution of the Fokker-Planck equation, this stationary measure is a quantity corresponding to the one-point motion. More generally, if one is interested in the simultaneous motion of n points (n1) forward and backward in time, then the second type of bifurcation arises naturally, capturing all the stochastic dynamics of (1). Based on the numerical results, we propose definitions of the stochastic pitchfork and Hopf bifurcations.

Non-autonomous 2D Navier–Stokes System with Singularly Oscillating External Force and its Global Attractor

We study the global attractor of the non-autonomous 2D Navier–Stokes (N.–S.) system with singularly oscillating external force of the form . If the functions g ₀(x, t) and g ₁ (z, t) are translation bounded in the corresponding spaces, then it is known that the global attractor is bounded in the space H, however, its norm may be unbounded as since the magnitude of the external force is growing. Assuming that the function g ₁ (z, t) has a divergence representation of the form where the functions (see Section 3), we prove that the global attractors of the N.–S. equations are uniformly bounded with respect to for all . We also consider the “limiting” 2D N.–S. system with external force g ₀(x, t). We have found an estimate for the deviation of a solution of the original N.–S. system from a solution u ⁰(x, t) of the “limiting” N.–S. system with the same initial data. If the function g ₁ (z, t) admits the divergence representation, the functions g ₀(x, t) and g ₁ (z, t) are translation compact in the corresponding spaces, and , then we prove that the global attractors converges to the global attractor of the “limiting” system as in the norm of H. In the last section, we present an estimate for the Hausdorff deviation of from of the form: in the case, when the global attractor is exponential (the Grashof number of the “limiting” 2D N.–S. system is small).

An Elliptic Lindstedt--Poincaré Method for Certain Strongly Non-Linear Oscillators

An elliptic Lindstedt--Poincaré (L--P) method is presented for the steady-state analysis of strongly non-linear oscillators of the form , in which the Jacobian elliptic functions are employed instead of the usual circular functions in the classical L--P perturbation procedure. This method can be viewed as a generalization of the L--P method. As an application of this method, three types of the generalized Van der Pol equation with are studied in detail.     

Hadamard Variational Formula for the Green’s Function of the Boundary Value Problem on the Stokes Equations

For every ${\varepsilon > 0}$ , we consider the Green’s matrix ${G_{\varepsilon}(x, y)}$ of the Stokes equations describing the motion of incompressible fluids in a bounded domain ${\Omega_{\varepsilon} \subset \mathbb{R}^d}$ , which is a family of perturbation of domains from ${\Omega\equiv \Omega_0}$ with the smooth boundary ${\partial\Omega}$ . Assuming the volume preserving property, that is, ${\mbox{vol.}\Omega_{\varepsilon} = \mbox{vol.}\Omega}$ for all ${\varepsilon > 0}$ , we give an explicit representation formula for ${\delta G(x, y) \equiv \lim_{\varepsilon\to +0}\varepsilon^{-1}(G_{\varepsilon}(x, y) - G_0(x, y))}$ in terms of the boundary integral on ${\partial \Omega}$ of ${G_0(x, y)}$ . Our result may be regarded as a classical Hadamard variational formula for the Green’s functions of the elliptic boundary value problems.

A Note on the Convergence of Singularly Perturbed Second Order Potential-Type Equations

In this paper we study the limit as \(\varepsilon \rightarrow 0\) of the singularly perturbed second order equation \(\varepsilon ^2 \ddot{u}_\varepsilon + \nabla _{\!x} V(t,u_\varepsilon (t))=0\), where V(t, x) is a potential. We assume that \(u_0(t)\) is one of its equilibrium points such that \(\nabla _{\!x}V(t,u_0(t))=0\) and \(\nabla _{\!x}^2V(t,u_0(t))>0\). We find that, under suitable initial data, the solutions \(u_\varepsilon \) converge uniformly to \(u_0\), by imposing mild hypotheses on V. A counterexample shows that they cannot be weakened.

Multiaxial elongation of polyisobutylene with various and changing strain rate ratios

The multiaxial elongational rheometer equipped with rotary clamps is modified such that in addition to simple, equibiaxial and multiaxial elongations also tests with new modes of elongation can be performed. As an example, polyisobutylene is elongated with a ratio of the principal strain rates of and magnitudes of the maximum strain rate , 0.04 and 0.08 s^–1. As a test result, the first elongational viscosityµ ₁ (t) is obtained which follows closely the linear viscoelastic shear viscosity . In contrast, the second elongational viscosityµ ₂ (t) remains below . By means of a further modification of the rheometer, the test modes can be varied during the deformation period. This allows one to investigate the influence of a well-defined rheological pre-history on the following rheological behaviour. As an example a variation ofm = 0.5 2 was performed. The measured normal-stress differences superpose from the single steps of deformation similar to the linear viscoelastic prediction.Dedicated to Prof. F. R. Schwarzl on the occasion of his 60th birthday     

Wall pressure fluctuations of a turbulent separated and reattaching flow affected by an unsteady wake

The spatio-temporal characteristics of the wall-pressure fluctuations in separated and reattaching flows over a backward-facing step were investigated through pressure-velocity joint measurements carried out using multiple-arrayed microphones and split-film probes. A spoke-wheel-type wake generator was installed upstream of the backward-facing step. The flow structure at the effective forcing frequency (St _f=0.2) was found to be well organized in terms of wall pressure spectrum, cross-correlation, wavenumber-frequency spectrum, and wavelet auto-correlation. Introduction of the unsteady wake (St _f=0.2) reduced the reattachment length by 10%. In addition, the unsteady wake enhanced the turbulence intensity near the separation edge and, as a consequence, enhanced the quadrupole sound sources; however, the turbulence intensity near the reattachment region was weakened and the overall flow noise was attenuated. The greater organization of the flow structure induced by the unsteady wake led to a weakening of the dipole sound sources, which are the dominant sound sources in this system. The dipole sound sources generated by wall pressure fluctuations were calculated using Curles integral formula.Abbreviations AR Aspect ratio - SBF Spatial box filtering Roman symbols C _p Wall pressure fluctuation coefficient, p/0.5U ² - H Step height of backward-facing step (mm) - H _s Shape factor (H _s = ^*/) - R _s Distance from acoustic source point to observation point (m) - Re _H Reynolds number, U H/ - St The reduced frequency, fH/U - St _f Normalized forcing frequency by unsteady wake, f _p H/U - T Vortex shedding period (s) - U Free-stream velocity (m/s) - a Speed of sound (m/s) - f Frequency (Hz) - f _p Wake passing frequency (Hz) - k Turbulent kinetic energy (m²/s²) - k _x Streamwise wave number (1/m) - k _z Spanwise wave number (1/m) - l _j Cosine of angle - p Instantaneous wall pressure (Pa) - p _rms Root-mean-square of wall pressure (Pa) - p _SBF Spatial box filtered wall pressure (Pa) - p _d Dipole sound source (Pa) - p _w Conditionally-averaged wall pressure (Pa) - q Dynamic pressure, 0.5U ² (Pa) - r Distance from origin to observation point (mm) - u _c Convection velocity (m/s) - u_max Root-mean-square of streamwise velocity (m/s) - x _R Time-mean reattachment length (mm) Greek symbols _p Forward-flow time fraction - Auto-correlation of pressure at x ₀ - Two-dimensional cross-correlation of pressure with streamwise separation interval , spanwise separation interval , and time delay , at (x ₀, z ₀) - Boundary layer thickness (mm, _99%) - ^* Displacement thickness (mm, ) - _ij Kroneckers delta function - Phase angle (°) - Wavelength (mm) - Momentum thickness (mm, ) - Angle between vertical axis and observation point (°) - Density (kg/m³) - Time delay (s) - Streamwise separation interval (m) - Spanwise separation interval (m) - _p (f; x ₀) Autospectrum of pressure measured at x ₀ (Pa² s) - _pp (, ; x ₀) Streamwise cross spectrum of pressure at x ₀ (Pa² s) - _pp (, , ; x ₀, z ₀) Streamwise and spanwise cross spectrum of pressure at (x ₀, z ₀) (Pa² s) - _pp (kx, ; x ₀) Streamwise wavenumber-frequency spectrum of pressure at x ₀ (Pa² s) - _pp (kx, kz, ; x ₀, z ₀) Two-dimensional wavenumber-frequency spectrum of pressure at (x ₀, z ₀) (Pa² s)
