Exact explicit solitary wave and periodic wave solutions and their dynamical behaviors for the Schamel–Korteweg–de Vries equation

The Schamel–Korteweg–de Vries equation is investigated by the approach of dynamics.The existences of solitary wave including ω-shape solitary wave and periodic wave are proved via investigating the dynamical behaviors with phase space analyses.The sufficient conditions to guarantee the existences of the above solutions in different regions of the parametric space are given.All possible exact explicit parametric representations of the waves are also presented.Along with the details of the analyses,the analytical results are numerically simulated lastly.     

The Legendre-Burgers equation: When artificial dissipation fails

Artificial viscosity is a common device for stabilizing flows with shocks and fronts. The computational diffusion smears the frontal zone over a small distance μ where μ is chosen so that the discretization has a couple of grid points in the front, and thus is able to resolve the shock. Spectral element methods use a Legendre spectral viscosity whose effect is to damp the coefficient of P_n(x) by some amount that depends only on the degree n of the Legendre polynomial. Legendre viscosity is better than ordinary diffusion because it does not require spurious boundary conditions, does not increase the temporal stiffness of the differential equations, and can be applied locally on an element-by-element basis. Unfortunately, Legendre diffusion is equivalent to a diffusion with a spatially-varying coefficient that goes to zero at the boundaries. Using the simplest example, one in which the second derivative of Burgers equation is replaced by the Legendre operator to give the “Legendre-Burgers” equation, u_t + uu_x = ν[(1 − x²)u_x]_x, we show that the width of the computational front can similarly tend to zero at the endpoints, causing a numerical catastrophe.     

The Burgers vector and the flow of screw and edge dislocations in finite-deformation single-crystal plasticity

We consider finite plasticity based on the decomposition F=F^eF^p of the deformation gradient F into elastic and plastic distortions F^e and F^p. Within this framework the macroscopic Burgers vector may be characterized by the tensor field . We derive a natural convected rate for G associated with evolution of F^p and as our main result show that, for a single-crystal,

•

temporal changes in G—as characterized by its convected time derivative—may be decomposed into temporal changes in distributions of screw and edge dislocations on the individual slip systems.

We discuss defect energies dependent on the densities of these distributions and show that corresponding thermodynamic forces are macroscopic counterparts of classical Peach-Koehler forces.     

An adaptive spectral least-squares scheme for the Burgers equation

A least-squares spectral collocation method for the one-dimensional inviscid Burgers equation is proposed. This model problem shows the stability and high accuracy of these schemes for nonlinear hyperbolic scalar equations. Here we make use of a least-squares spectral approach which was already used in an earlier paper for discontinuous and singular perturbation problems (Heinrichs, J. Comput. Appl. Math. 157:329–345, 2003). The domain is decomposed in subintervals where continuity is enforced at the interfaces. Equal order polynomials are used on all subdomains. For the spectral collocation scheme Chebyshev polynomials are employed which allow the efficient implementation with Fast Fourier Transforms (FFTs). The collocation conditions and the interface conditions lead to an overdetermined system which can be efficiently solved by least-squares. The solution technique will only involve symmetric positive definite linear systems. The scheme exhibits exponential convergence where the exact solution is smooth. In parts of the domain where the solution contains discontinuities (shocks) the spectral solution displays a Gibbs-like behavior. Here this is overcome by some suitable exponential filtering at each time level. Here we observe that by over-collocation the results remain stable also for increasing filter parameters and also without filtering. Furthermore by an adaptive grid refinement we were able to locate the precise position of the discontinuity. Numerical simulations confirm the high accuracy of our spectral least-squares scheme.      

An Initial Boundary-Value Problem in a Half-Strip for the Korteweg–De Vries Equation in Fractional-Order Sobolev Spaces

Abstract

An initial boundary-value problem in a half-strip with one boundary condition for the Korteweg–de Vries equation is considered and results on global well-posedness of this problem are established in Sobolev spaces of various orders, including fractional. Initial and boundary data satisfy natural (or close to natural) conditions, originating from properties of solutions of a corresponding initial-value problem for a linearized KdV equation. An essential part of the study is the investigation of special solutions of a “boundary potential” type for this linearized KdV equation.

求解偏微分方程的常用方法包括有限差分法、有限元法等。近年来,小波分析在偏微分方程数值求解中的应用已引起很多学者的关注,例如采用Daubechies小波或shannon小波构造的小波配置方法已经取得较好的结果。钟万勰院士提出的偏微分方程的子域精细积分方法是一种半解析方法,方法简单,精度高。将小波方法和精细积分方法相结合应用于偏微分方程的数值求解中将有利于提高算法的精度和稳定性,为此本文以Burgers方程为例,提出了一种求解一维非线性抛物型偏微分方程的小波精积分方法。该方法用拟小波配点法对空间域进行离散,建立起对时间的常微分方程组,然后采用精细时程积分方法对该方程组求解。数值计算结果表明,该方法同其它方法相比,具有计算格式简单,数值稳定性和精度较高的优点。     

Magnetosonic shock waves in dense astrophysical electron–positron–ion plasmas

Multifluid quantum magnetohydrodynamic model (QMHD) is used to investigate small but finite amplitude magnetosonic shock waves in dense) electron–positron–ion (e–p–i) plasmas. The Korteweg–de Vries–Burgers (KdVB) equation is derived by using reductive perturbation method. It is noticed that variations in the positron density modify the profile of magnetosonic shocks in dense e–p–i plasmas significantly. The numerical results are also presented by taking into account the dense plasma parameters from published literature of astrophysical conditions, in compact stars.
