We study an initial-boundary-value problem of a nonlinear Korteweg-de Vries equation posed on a finite interval (0, 2π). The whole system has Dirichlet boundary condition at the left end-point, and both of Dirichlet and Neumann homogeneous boundary conditions at the right end-point. It is known that the origin is not asymptotically stable for the linearized system around the origin. We prove th...

The paper is concerned with linear thermoelastic plate equations in a domain Ω: utt +∆u+∆θ = 0 and θt −∆θ −∆ut = 0 in Ω× (0,∞), subject to Dirichlet boundary condition: u|Γ = Dνu|Γ = θ|Γ = 0 and initial condition: (u, ut, θ)|t=0 = (u0, v0, θ0) ∈W 2 p,D(Ω)×Lp×Lp. Here, Ω is a bounded or exterior domain in R (n ≥ 2). We assume that the boundary Γ of Ω is a C hypersurface and we define W 2 p,D by ...

In this paper, a modification on the fixed grid finite element method is presented and used in the solution of 2D linear elastic problems. This method uses non-boundary-fitted meshes for the numerical solution of partial differential equations. Special techniques are required to apply boundary conditions on the intersection of domain boundaries and non-boundary-fitted elements. Hence, a new met...

In this paper we consider the problem of estimating the state, and identifying parameters of a diffusion process, when the only available information is the crossing times of a boundary. By using a partial differential equation approach related with the computation of boundary–crossing probabilities, we derive finite dimensional reconstructors (filters) for the state and Feynman Kac type functi...

A numerical finite difference study has been earned out for two dimensional radiation-natural convection interaction phenomena in a vertical circular pin located at a non-participating (i.e. transparent) fluid. The coupled conservation equations in boundary layer (continuity, momentum, and energy equations) and pin energy equation are solved simultaneously using modified box method and fully im...

The isogeometric analysis is increasingly used in various engineering problems. It is based on Non-Uniform Rational B-Splines (NURBS) basis function applied for the solution field approximation and the geometry description. One of the major concerns with this method is finding an efficient approach to impose essential boundary conditions, especially for inhomogeneous boundaries. The main contri...

We present c0–semigroup generation results for the free streaming operator with abstract boundary conditions. We recall some known results on the matter and establish a general theorem (already announced in [1]). We motivate our study with a lot of examples and show that our result applies to the physical cases of Maxwell boundary conditions in the kinetic theory of gases as well as to the non—...

we describe a variational problem on a surface under a constraintof geometrical character. necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence ofbifurcation points are provided. in local coordinates the problem corresponds toa quasilinear elliptic boundary value problem. the problem can be consideredas a physical model for several applications referring to continuum medium andmembranes.
