In this paper we study the stability of finite difference approximations to initial-boundary hyperbolic systems. As is well-known, a proper specification of boundary conditions for such systems is essential for their solutions to be well-defined. We prove a discrete analogue of the above if the numerical boundary conditions are consistent with an inflow part of the problem, they render the over...

In microfluidic applications involving high-frequency acoustic waves over a solid boundary, the Stokes boundary-layer thickness δ is so small that some non-negligible slip may occur at the fluid-solid interface. This paper assesses the impact of this slip by revisiting the classical problem of steady acoustic streaming over a flat boundary, replacing the no-slip boundary condition with the Navi...

in this paper, we consider an inverse problem of linear heat equation with nonlinear boundary condition. we identify the temperature and the unknown radiation tern from an overspecified condition on the boundary

It is proven that the ”horizon condition”, which was found to characterize the fundamental modular region in continuum theory and the thermodynamic limit of gauge theory on a periodic lattice, holds for every (transverse) configuration on a finite lattice with free boundary conditions.

The classical integrability the O(N) nonlinear sigma model on a half-line is examined, and the existence of an infinity of conserved charges in involution is established for the free boundary condition. For the case N = 3 other possible boundary conditions are considered briefly.

This paper presents a new and efficient method to calculate point mobilities from subcomponents of a full structure. When performing dynamic analyses of subcomponents the result normally tends to strongly depend on the boundary condition selected for the component. The goal is to simulate the results one would have received if the full model would be analysed. Normally free or clamped boundary ...

The higher rank analogue of the XXZ model with a boundary is considered on the basis of the vertex operator approach. We derive difference equations of the quantum Knizhnik-Zamolodchikov type for 2N-point correlations of the model. We present infinite product formulae of two point functions with free boundary condition by solving those difference equations with N = 1.

We establish the saddle point property of the focusing selfsimilar solution of a free boundary problem for the heat equation with free boundary conditions given by u = 0 and ∂u ∂ν = 1.

the purpose of this paper is to study the higher order asymptotic distributions of the eigenvalues associated with a class of sturm-liouville problem with equation of the form w??=(?2f(x)?r(x)) (1), on [a,b, where ? is a real parameter and f(x) is a real valued function in c2(a,b which has a single zero (so called turning point) at point 0x=x and r(x) is a continuously differentiable function. ...

Derivation of the lattice Boltzmann method from the continuous kinetic theory [X. He and L. S. Luo, Phys. Rev. E 55, R6333 (1997); X. Shan and X. He, Phys. Rev. Lett. 80, 65 (1998)] is extended in order to obtain boundary conditions for the method. For the model of a diffusively reflecting moving solid wall, the boundary condition for the discrete set of velocities is derived, and the error of ...
