The analysis study on nonlinear iterative methods for inverse problems

In this paper, the nonlinear iterative methods, which are different from the classical algorithms, to solve inverse problems are presented. Our methods by denoting some parameters and some properties of the algorithm in both noise and noiseless cases are studied. Finally, the convergence of the sequence generated by the algorithm without noise is discussed.

Decay rate for viscoelastic wave equation of variable coefficients with delay and dynamic boundary conditions

In this paper, we consider a viscoelastic wave equation of variable coefficients in the presence of past history with nonlinear damping and delay in the internal feedback and dynamic boundary conditions. Under suitable assumptions, we establish an explicit and general decay rate result without imposing restrictive assumption on the behavior of the relaxation function at infinity by Riemannian geometry method and Lyapunov functional method.     

Nonlinear dynamic behavior analysis of an elastically restrained double-beam connected through a mass-spring system that is nonlinear

Some complex engineering structures can be modeled as multiple beams connected through coupling elements. When the coupling element is elastic, it can be simplified as a mass-spring system. The existing studies mainly concentrated on the double-beam coupled through elastic connectors, where the connector is simplified as the equivalent linear stiffness element or linear mass-spring system. Furthermore, many researches ignore rotational boundary restraints in analyzing dynamic behavior of the double-beam connected through elastic connectors, limiting their engineering generality. Considering the above limitations, this study attempts to employ the cubic nonlinear stiffness in the coupling mass-spring system and study the potential application of the mass-spring system that is nonlinear on the vibration control of the double-beam system. Using the variational method and the generalized Hamiltonian method build the corresponding system’s governing functions. Applying the Galerkin truncation method (GTM) obtains the dynamic behavior of the double-beam connected through a mass-spring system that is nonlinear. According to this study, the change of the mass-spring system that is nonlinear significantly influences the dynamic behavior of the double-beam system, where the complex dynamic behavior occurs under certain parameters of the mass-spring system that is nonlinear. Suitable parameters of the mass-spring system that is nonlinear are good at the vibration suppression at the boundary of the vibration system. Furthermore, the mass-spring system that is nonlinear can change the characteristics of the double-beam system’s kinetic energy transfer. For the vibration model established in this work, a quasi-periodic vibration state can be regarded as a sign of the occurrence of the targeted energy transfer of the double-beam connected through a mass-spring system that is nonlinear.

     

Effects of Flow Velocity and Nonionic Surfactant on Colloid Straining in Saturated Porous Media Under Unfavorable Conditions

Knowledge of colloid straining mechanism in porous media is of importance for protecting groundwater from being contaminated by biocolloids (e.g., bacteria and protozoa) and by contaminants whose transport can be facilitated by mobile particles. This study examined effects of flow velocity on colloid straining in porous media under unfavorable chemical conditions. Saturated column experiments were conducted using glass beads as collector and a $3\,\mu \text{ m}$ carboxylate-modified polystyrene latex microsphere as model colloid. To unambiguously examine colloid straining mechanisms, attachment was minimized by extensively cleaning the collectors and adopting deionized water as solution. Results show that increasing flow velocity decreases colloid straining under unfavorable chemical conditions, in agreement with to theoretical finding in literature. This study additionally examined effects of nonionic surfactant (Triton X-100) on colloid straining in porous media under unfavorable chemical conditions. Results show that the addition of Triton X-100 decreases colloid straining and the decrease is enhanced by increasing the concentration of Triton X-100.

Semi-linear degenerate backward stochastic partial differential equations and associated forward–backward stochastic differential equations

In this paper, we consider the Cauchy problem of semi-linear degenerate backward stochastic partial differential equations (BSPDEs) under general settings without technical assumptions on the coefficients. For the solution of semi-linear degenerate BSPDE, we first give a proof for its existence and uniqueness, as well as regularity. Then the connection between semi-linear degenerate BSPDEs and forward–backward stochastic differential equations (FBSDEs) is established, which can be regarded as an extension of the Feynman–Kac formula to the non-Markovian framework.     

Orlicz–John ellipsoids

The Orlicz–John ellipsoids, which are in the framework of the booming Orlicz Brunn–Minkowski theory, are introduced for the first time. It turns out that they are generalizations of the classical John ellipsoid and the evolved _Lp$L_p$ John ellipsoids. The analog of Ball's volume-ratio inequality is established for the new Orlicz–John ellipsoids. The connection between the isotropy of measures and the characterization of Orlicz–John ellipsoids is demonstrated.
