Raphson Method

In this paper the investigation of the axisymmetric flow of a liquid with a boundary perpendicular to the flow is considered. Analytical equations are derived for the radial and axial velocity and pressure components of fluid flow in a pipe of finite length with a movable right boundary, and boundary conditions on the moving boundary are also defined. A numerical solution of the problem on a finite-difference grid by the iterative Newton-Raphson method for various velocities of the boundary motion is obtained.

Abstract Path planning has been widely investigated by many researchers and engineers for its extensive applications in the real world. In this paper, a biharmonic radial basis potential function (BRBPF) representation is proposed to construct navigation fields in 2D maps with obstacles, and it therefore can guide and design a path joining given start and goal positions with obstacle avoidance. We construct BRBPF by solving a biharmonic equation associated with distance-related boundary conditions using radial basis functions (RBFs). In this way, invalid gradients calculated by finite difference methods in large size grids can be preventable. Furthermore, paths constructed by BRBPF are smoother than paths constructed by harmonic potential functions and other methods, and plenty of experimental results demonstrate that the proposed method is valid and effective.

A solution has been derived for the Navier equations in orthogonal cylindrical curvilinear coordinates in which the axial variable, X3, is suppressed through a Fourier transform. The necessary coordinate transformation may be found either analytically or numerically for given geometries. The finite-difference forms of the mapped Navier equations and boundary conditions are solved in a rectangular region in the curvilinear coordinaties. Numerical results are given for the half space with various surface shapes and boundary conditions in two and three dimensions.

Reflection Coefficients

Many finite difference models in use for generating synthetic seismograms produce unwanted reflections from the edges of the model due to the use of Dirichlet or Neumann boundary conditions. In this paper we develop boundary conditions which greatly reduce this edge reflection. A reflection coefficient analysis is given which indicates that, for the specified boundary conditions, smaller reflection coefficients than those obtained for Dirichlet or Neumann boundary conditions are obtained. Numerical calculations support this conclusion.
