Variable Separation and Exact Separable Solutions for Equations of Type uxt=A(u,ux)uxx+B(u,ux)

The generalized conditional symmetry is developed to study the variable separation for equations of type u_xt=A(u,u_x)u_xx+B(u,u_x). Complete classification of those equations which admit derivative-dependent functional separable solutions is obtained and some of their exact separable solutions are constructed.     

A New Entropy Function to Analyze Isentropic Processes of Ideal Gases with Variable Specific Heats

A new entropy function s⁺ is defined in terms of the existing entropy function s° and temperature as s⁺ = s° − R lnT to facilitate the analysis of isentropic processes of ideal gases with variable specific heats. The function s⁺ also makes it possible to calculate the entropy changes of ideal gases during processes when volume information is available instead of pressure information and the variation of specific heats with temperature is to be accounted for. The introduction of the function s⁺ eliminates the need to use the dimensionless isentropic functions relative pressure P_r and relative specific volume v_r of ideal gases and to tabulate their values. The P_r and v_r data are often confused with pressure and specific volume, with an adverse effect on the study of the second law of thermodynamics. The new s⁺ function nicely complements the existing s° function in entropy change calculations: the former is conveniently used when volume information is given while the latter is used when pressure information is available. Therefore, the introduction of the new entropy function s⁺ is expected to make a significant contribution to the thermodynamics education and research by streamlining entropy analysis of ideal gases.

The Spectrum of the Two-Dimensional Periodic Schrödinger Operator

The absence of eigenvalues (of infinite multiplicity) for the two-dimensional periodic Schrödinger operator with a variable metric is proved. The method of proof does not use the change of variables reducing the metric to a scalar form.     

An automatically controlled Nd:YAG laser with variable pulse width

The development of a high-energy, pulsed Nd:YAG laser system for materials-processing and medical applications is reported here.

Application of Euler Neural Networks with Soft Computing Paradigm to Solve Nonlinear Problems Arising in Heat Transfer

In this study, a novel application of neurocomputing technique is presented for solving nonlinear heat transfer and natural convection porous fin problems arising in almost all areas of engineering and technology, especially in mechanical engineering. The mathematical models of the problems are exploited by the intelligent strength of Euler polynomials based Euler neural networks (ENN’s), optimized with a generalized normal distribution optimization (GNDO) algorithm and Interior point algorithm (IPA). In this scheme, ENN’s based differential equation models are constructed in an unsupervised manner, in which the neurons are trained by GNDO as an effective global search technique and IPA, which enhances the local search convergence. Moreover, a temperature distribution of heat transfer and natural convection porous fin are investigated by using an ENN-GNDO-IPA algorithm under the influence of variations in specific heat, thermal conductivity, internal heat generation, and heat transfer rate, respectively. A large number of executions are performed on the proposed technique for different cases to determine the reliability and effectiveness through various performance indicators including Nash–Sutcliffe efficiency (NSE), error in Nash–Sutcliffe efficiency (ENSE), mean absolute error (MAE), and Thiel’s inequality coefficient (TIC). Extensive graphical and statistical analysis shows the dominance of the proposed algorithm with state-of-the-art algorithms and numerical solver RK-4.     

Computational experience with known variable metric updates

Variable metric methods from the Broyden family are well known and commonly used for unconstrained minimization. These methods have good theoretical and practical convergence properties which depend on a selection of free parameters. We demonstrate, using extensive computational experiments, the influence of both the Biggs stabilization parameter and Oren scaling parameter on 12 individual variable metric updates, two of which are new. This paper focuses on a class of variable metric updates belonging to the so-called preconvex part of the Broyden family. These methods outperform the more familiar BFGS method. We also experimentally demonstrate the efficiency of the controlled scaling strategy for problems of sufficient size and sparsity.
