چکیده

The numerical computation of solitary waves to semilinear elliptic equations in innnite cylinders is investigated. Rather than solving on the innnite cylinder, the equation is approximated by a boundary-value problem on a nite cylinder. Convergence and stability results for this algorithm are given. In addition, it is shown that Galerkin approximations can be used to calculate solitary waves for the elliptic problem on the nite cylinder. The theoretical predictions are compared with numerical computations. In particular, post buckling of an innnitely long cylindrical shell under axial compression is considered; it is shown numerically that, for a xed spatial truncation, the error in the truncation on the length of the cylinder scales in accordance with the theoretical predictions.

Exponential dichotomies for solitary-wave solutions of semilinear elliptic equations on in nite cylinders

In applications, solitary-wave solutions of semilinear elliptic equations u + g(u; ru) = 0 (x; y) 2 IR in innnite cylinders frequently arise as travelling waves of parabolic equations. As such, their bifurcations are an interesting issue. Interpreting elliptic equations on innnite cylinders as dynamical systems in x has proved very useful. Still, there are major obstacles in obtaining, for inst...

Modeling of cylindrical objects by circular dielectric and conducting cylinders - Antennas and Propagation, IEEE Transactions on

The scattering of an incident plane wave from an array of parallel circular dielectric and/or conducting cylinders is derived rigorously using a boundary value approach. Both transverse electric (TE) and transverse magnetic (TM) polarized incident plane waves are considered. The validity and accuracy of the method are verified by comparing the numerical results with those based on other availab...

Numerical Solution of Some Nonlocal , Nonlineardispersive Wave

We use a spectral method to solve numerically two nonlocal, nonlinear, dispersive, integrable wave equations, the Benjamin-Ono and the Intermediate Long Wave equations. The proposed numerical method is able to capture well the dynamics of the solutions; we use it to investigate the behaviour of solitary wave solutions of the equations with special attention to those, among the properties usuall...

ISPH Numerical Modeling of Nonlinear Wave Run-up on Steep Slopes

Non-breaking tsunami waves run-up on steep slopes can cause severe damages to coastal structures. The estimation of the wave run-up rate caused by tsunami waves are important to understand the performance and safety issues of the breakwater in practice. In this paper, an Incompressible Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics method (ISPH) method was utilized for the 2DV numerical modeling of nonli...
