Convergence to nonlinear diffusion waves for solutions of Euler equations with time-depending damping

In this paper, we are concerned with the asymptotic behavior of solutions to the system of Euler equations with time-depending damping, in particular, include the constant coefficient damping. We rigorously prove that the solutions time-asymptotically converge to the diffusion wave whose profile is self-similar solution to the corresponding parabolic equation, which justifies Darcy's law. Compared with previous results about Euler equations with constant coefficient damping obtained by Hsiao and Liu (1992) [2], and Nishihara (1996) [9], we obtain a general result when the initial perturbation belongs to the same space, i.e. $H^3(\mathbb{R})\times H^2(\mathbb{R})$. Our proof is based on the classical energy method.     

合肥光源储存环上八极磁铁的动力学效应分析

 为达到合肥光源二期工程通用模式的设计流强，在储存环上选择垂直方向β函数比较大的位置增加一组八极磁铁。该组八极磁铁对水平方向动力学孔径影响很小，虽然垂直方向动力学孔径明显减小，但仍然大于物理孔径，不会影响束流的注入积累过程。该组八极磁铁产生的垂直方向振荡频率分散可以提供ms量级的Landau阻尼时间，将明显增强抑制垂直方向束流集体不稳定性的能力。该组八极磁铁投入运行后，合肥光源注入积累过程明显改善，注入流强从无八极磁铁时的约100 mA提高到330 mA左右。     

Numerical investigation into nonlinear dynamic behavior of electrically-actuated clamped–clamped micro-beam with squeeze-film damping effect

A numerical investigation is performed into the nonlinear dynamic behavior of a clamped–clamped micro-beam actuated by a combined DC/AC voltage and subject to a squeeze-film damping effect. An analytical model based on a nonlinear deflection equation and a linearized Reynolds equation is proposed to describe the deflection of the micro-beam under the effects of the electrostatic actuating force. The deflection of the micro-beam is investigated under various actuating conditions by solving the analytical model using a hybrid numerical scheme comprising the differential transformation method and the finite difference approximation method. It is shown that the numerical results for the dynamic pull-in voltage of the clamped–clamped micro-beam deviate by no more than 2.04% from those presented in the literature based on the conventional finite difference scheme. The effects of the AC voltage amplitude, excitation frequency, residual stress, and ambient pressure on the center-point displacement of the micro-beam are systematically explored. Moreover, the actuation conditions which ensure the stability of the micro-beam are identified by means of phase portraits. Overall, the results presented in this study confirm that the hybrid numerical method provides an accurate means of analyzing the complex nonlinear behavior of common electrostatically-actuated microstructures.     

Periodic Solutions for a Damped Rayleigh Beam Model with Time Delay

Vibrations of a beam can be described as an Euler-Bernoulli beam,or as a Rayleigh beam or as a Timoshenko beam. In this paper, we establish the existence of periodic solutions in time for a damped Rayleigh beam model with time delay, which is treated as a bifurcation parameter. The main proof is based on a Lyapunov-Schmidt reduction together with the classical implicit function theorem. Moreover, we give a sufficient condition for a direction of bifurcation.

Global and exponential attractors for 3‐D wave equations with displacement dependent damping

A weakly damped wave equation in the three‐dimensional (3‐D) space with a damping coefficient depending on the displacement is studied. This equation is shown to generate a dissipative semigroup in the energy phase space, which possesses finite‐dimensional global and exponential attractors in a slightly weaker topology.

Limsup results and LIL for partial sum processes of a Gaussian random field

Let {ξ _j ; j ∈ ℤ₊ ^d be a centered stationary Gaussian random field, where ℤ₊ ^d is the d-dimensional lattice of all points in d-dimensional Euclidean space ℝ^d, having nonnegative integer coordinates. For each j = (j ₁ , ..., jd) in ℤ₊ ^d , we denote |j| = j ₁ ... j _d and for m, n ∈ ℤ₊ ^d , define S(m, n] = Σ _m<j≤n ζ _j , σ²(|n−m|) = ES ² (m, n], S _n = S(0, n] and S ₀ = 0. Assume that σ(|n|) can be extended to a continuous function σ(t) of t > 0, which is nondecreasing and regularly varying with exponent α at b ≥ 0 for some 0 < α < 1. Under some additional conditions, we study limsup results for increments of partial sum processes and prove as well the law of the iterated logarithm for such partial sum processes.

Initial boundary value problem for a class of fourth-order wave equation with viscous damping term

In this article we study the initial boundary value problem for a class of fourth-order nonlinear wave equation with viscous damping term u _tt ???αu _xxt ?+?u _xxxx ?=?f(u _x ) _x . By argument related to the potential well-convexity method, we prove the global existence and nonexistence of the solution. Further, we give some sharp conditions for global existence and nonexistence of the solution. This generalizes the results obtained in Chen and Lu [G. Chen and B. Lu, The initial-boundary value problems for a class of nonlinear wave equations with damping term, J. Math. Anal. Appl. 351 (2009), pp. 1–15].     

Existence of global weak solutions for Navier‐Stokes‐Poisson equations with quantum effect and convergence to incompressible Navier‐Stokes equations

In this paper, we consider a three dimensional quantum Navier‐Stokes‐Poisson equations. Existence of global weak solutions is obtained, and convergence toward the classical solution of the incompressible Navier‐Stokes equation is rigorously proven for well prepared initial data. Furthermore, the associated convergence rates are also obtained. Copyright © 2014 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
