In this paper, we consider an inverse heat conduction problem with variable coefficient a(t). In many practical situations such as an on-line testing, we cannot know the initial condition for example because we have to estimate the problem for the heat process which was already started. Based on the method of fundamental solutions, we give a numerical scheme for solving the reconstruction problem. Since the governing equation contains variable coefficients, modified method of fundamental solutions was used to solve this kind of ill-posed problems. Some numerical examples are given for verifying the efficiency and accuracy of the presented method.

In this paper, we study the asymptotic behavior of Palais-Smale sequences associated with the prescribed mean curvature equation on a compact manifold with boundary. We prove that every such sequence converges to a solution of the associated equation plus finitely many “bubbles” obtained by rescaling fundamental solutions of the corresponding Euclidean boundary value problem.

A new version of the method of approximate particular solutions (MAPSs) using radial basis functions (RBFs) has been proposed for solving a general class of elliptic partial differential equations. In the solution process, the Laplacian is kept on the left-hand side as a main differential operator. The other terms are moved to the right-hand side and treated as part of the forcing term. In this way, the close-form particular solution is easy to obtain using various RBFs. The numerical scheme of the new MAPSs is simple to implement and yet very accurate. Three numerical examples are given and the results are compared to Kansa's method and the method of fundamental solutions.

Without considering the Coriolis force, the governing differential equations for the pure bending vibrations of a rotating nonuniform Timoshenko beam are derived. The two coupled differential equations are reduced into two complete fourth-order differential equations with variable coefficients in the flexural displacement and in the angle of rotation due to bending, respectively. The explicit relation between the flexural displacement and the angle of rotation due to bending is established. The frequency equations of the beam with a general elastically restrained root are derived and expressed in terms of the four normalized fundamental solutions of the associated governing differential equations. Consequently, if the geometric and material properties of the beam are in polynomial forms, then the exact solution for the problem can be obtained. Finally, the limiting cases are examined. The influence of the coupling effect of the rotating speed and the mass moment of inertia, the setting angle, the rotating speed and taper ratio on the natural frequencies, and the phenomenon of divergence instability (tension buckling) are investigated.

This paper is concerned with a class of singular elliptic partial differential equations related to the operator of Weinstein's generalized axially symmetric potential theory (GASPT) [1, 2] which has numerous applications.
