The thermo-elastic plate system of equations is analysed. The sufficient conditions of existence, uniqueness and continuity dependence on initial data of the Cauchy problem solutions for differentialoperational equation of mixed type (a part of the equation of hyperbolic type, and a part of parabolic type) are given in this paper. If the operational coefficients are suitably chosen, the investi...

We consider the perturbation of parabolic operators of the form ∂t + P (x,D) by large-amplitude highly oscillatory spatially dependent potentials modeled as Gaussian random fields. The amplitude of the potential is chosen so that the solution to the random equation is affected by the randomness at the leading order. We show that, when the dimension is smaller than the order of the elliptic pseu...

The direct coordinate transformation method, which only transforms independent variables and retains Cartesian dependent variables, may not be an appropriate method for the purpose of simplifying the curvilinear parabolic approximation of the vector form of the wave–current equation given by Kirby [Higher-order approximations in the parabolic equation method for water waves, J. Geophys. Res. 91...

The paper is concerned with Lp error analysis of semi-discrete Galerkin FEMs for nonlinear parabolic equations. The classical energy approach relies heavily on the strong regularity assumption of the diffusion coefficient, which may not be satisfied in many physical applications. Here we focus our attention on a general nonlinear parabolic equation (or system) in a convex polygon or polyhedron ...

This work deals with the derivation of a novel transparent boundary condition (TBC) for the coupling of the standard “parabolic” equation (SPE) in underwater acoustics (assuming cylindrical symmetry) with an elastic parabolic equation (EPE) for modelling the sea bottom extending hereby the existing TBCs for a fluid model of the seabed.

We prove that the Kuramoto-Sivashinsky equation is locally controllable in 1D and in 2D with one boundary control. Our method consists in combining several general results in order to reduce the nullcontrollability of this nonlinear parabolic equation to the exact controllability of a linear beam or plate system. This improves known results on the controllability of Kuramoto-Sivashinsky equatio...

In the present paper we find necessary and sufficient conditions on the coefficients of a parabolic equation for convexity to be preserved. A parabolic equation is said to preserve convexity if given a convex initial condition, any solution of moderate growth remains a convex function of the spatial variables for each fixed time.

With the rapid growth of indoor wireless communication systems, the need to accurately model radio wave propagation inside the building environments has increased. Many site-specific methods have been proposed for modeling indoor radio channels. Among these methods, the ray tracing algorithm and the finite-difference time domain (FDTD) method are the most popular ones. The ray tracing approach ...

In this paper homotopy perturbation method (HPM) is employed to solve two kinds of differential equations: one dimensional non homogeneous parabolic partial differential equation and non linear differential equation. Using the HPM, an exact analytical solution to non homogeneous parabolic partial differential equation and an approximate explicit solution for a non linear differential equation w...
