A method for finding exact solutions to hyperbolic systems of first-order PDEs
نویسنده
چکیده
Differential constraints are used as a means of developing a systematic method for finding exact solutions to quasilinear nonautonomous hyperbolic systems of first-order partial differential equations (PDEs) involving two independent variables. The leading assumption of the hyperbolicity of the basic system together with a strict compatibility argument permits characterization of the most general class of quasilinear first-order constraint equations, which can be appended to the governing mathematical model under consideration. Furthermore, the exact solutions can be found by integrating the resulting overdetermined and consistent system of PDEs. When the number of auxiliary constraint equations is equal to that of the field equations, the solutions provided by the 'nonclassical' group method for PDEs are recovered; for a very special form of the appended constraint equations simple wave solutions to hyperbolic systems of PDEs are also obtained. Within the present theoretical framework a model describing rate-type media is considered and several classes of initialand/or boundary-value problems are solved.

Solution to time fractional generalized KdV of order 2q+1 and system of space fractional PDEs
Abstract. In this work, it has been shown that the combined use of exponential operators and integral transforms provides a powerful tool to solve time fractional generalized KdV of order 2q+1 and certain fractional PDEs. It is shown that exponential operators are an effective method for solving certain fractional linear equations with non-constant coefficients. It may be concluded that the com...
متن کاملNon-Fourier heat conduction equation in a sphere; comparison of variational method and inverse Laplace transformation with exact solution
Small scale thermal devices, such as micro heater, have led researchers to consider more accurate models of heat in thermal systems. Moreover, biological applications of heat transfer such as simulation of temperature field in laser surgery is another pathway which urges us to re-examine thermal systems with modern ones. Non-Fourier heat transfer overcomes some shortcomings of Fourier heat tran...
متن کاملThe comparison of two high-order semi-discrete central schemes for solving hyperbolic conservation laws
This work presents two high-order, semi-discrete, central-upwind schemes for computing approximate solutions of 1D systems of conservation laws. We propose a central weighted essentially non-oscillatory (CWENO) reconstruction, also we apply a fourth-order reconstruction proposed by Peer et al., and afterwards, we combine these reconstructions with a semi-discrete central-upwind numerical flux ...

Fluid-structure interaction (FSI) occurs when the dynamic water hammer forces; cause vibrations in the pipe wall. FSI in pipe systems due to Poisson and junction coupling has been the center of attention in recent years. It causes fluctuations in pressure heads and vibrations in the pipe wall. The governing equations of this phenomenon include a system of first order hyperbolic partial differen...
متن کاملBoundary Feedback Control of Coupled Hyperbolic Linear PDEs Systems with Nonlinear Boundary Conditions
We try to stabilize equilibrium solutions of physical models described by a class of coupled first-order linear partial differential equations with nonlinear boundary conditions. These systems are distributed parameter systems in which spatio-temporal chaos occurs. In order to stabilize the equilibrium solutions of the systems, at first, we reduce the PDEs to discrete-time systems using the met...
