The problem of ablation by frictional heating in a semi-infinite solid with arbitrarily prescribed initial and boundary conditions is investigated. The study includes all convective motions caused by the density differences of various phases of the materials. It is found that there are two cases: (i) ablation appears immediately and (ii) there is a waiting period of redistribution prior to ablation. The exact solutions of velocities and temperatures of both cases are derived. The solutions of the interfacial positions are also established. Existence and uniqueness of the solutions are examined and proved. The conditions for the occurrence of these two cases are expressed by an inequality. Physical interpretation of the inequality is explored. Its implication coincides with one’s expectation. Ablation appears only when the surface temperature is at or above the melting temperature.

We construct exact solutions of two inhomogeneous boundary value problems in the theory of elasticity for a half-strip with free long sides in the form of series in Papkovich–Fadle eigenfunctions: (a) the half-strip end is free and (b) the half-strip end is firmly clamped. Initially, we construct a solution of the inhomogeneous problem for an infinite strip. Subsequently, the corresponding solutions for a half-strip are added to this solution, whereby the boundary conditions at the end are satisfied. The Papkovich orthogonality relation is used to solve the inhomogeneous problem in a strip.

In this paper we study the system governing flows in the magnetic field within the earth. The system is similar to the magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) equations. For initial data in spaceLp, we obtained the local in time existence and uniqueness ofweak solutions of the system subject to appropriate initial and boundary conditions.

The ablation problem of a semi-infinite solid, moving at a constant speed parallel to its surface, is investigated. The study includes all induced motions caused by the density differences of various phases of the materials. Some appropriate transformations are introduced to reduce the problem to one where all phases behave as if they had the same density. The reduced problem is then solved by similarity transformations. It is found that the exact solution exists if and only if an inequality is satisfied. The physical interpretation of the inequality is examined. A numerical example is given to illustrate the result.

AbstractWhen unaccounted for in numerical weather prediction (NWP) models, heavy aerosol events can cause significant unrealized biases in forecasted meteorological parameters such as surface temperature. To improve near-surface forecasting accuracies during heavy aerosol loadings, we demonstrate the feasibility of incorporating aerosol fields from a global chemical transport model as initial and boundary conditions into a higher resolution NWP model with aerosol-meteorological coupling. This concept is tested for a major biomass burning smoke event over the Northern Great Plains region of the United States that occurred during summer of 2015. Aerosol analyses from the global Navy Aerosol Analysis and Prediction System (NAAPS) are used as initial and boundary conditions for Weather Research and Forecasting with Chemistry (WRF-Chem) simulations. Through incorporating more realistic aerosol direct effects into the WRF-Chem simulations, errors in WRF-Chem simulated surface downward shortwave radiative fluxes and near-surface temperature are reduced compared with surface-based observations. This study confirms the ability to decrease biases induced by the aerosol direct effect for regional NWP forecasts during high-impact aerosol episodes through the incorporation of analyses and forecasts from a global aerosol transport model.

In this paper, a variable-coefficient time fractional heat-like and wave-like equation with initial and boundary conditions is solved by the use of variable separation method and the properties of Mittag-Leffler function. As a result, exact solutions are obtained, from which some known special solutions are recovered. It is shown that the variable separation method can also be used to solve some others time fractional heat-like and wave-like equation in science and engineering.

Introduction: Linear boundary value problems for Fredholm ordinary integro-differential equations are seldom consideredwith integral boundary conditions in the literature. In our case, integro-differential equations are subject to multipoint or nonlocalintegral boundary conditions. It should be noted that finding exact solutions even for multipoint problems or problems with nonlocalintegral boundary conditions with a differential equation is a difficult task. Purpose: Finding the uniqueness and existencecriterion of solutions for Fredholm ordinary integro-differential equations with multipoint or nonlocal integral boundary conditionsand obtaining exact solutions in closed form of such problems. Results: Within the class of abstract operator equations, for thespecial case of Fredholm integro-differential equations with multipoint or nonlocal integral boundary conditions, a criterion for theexistence and uniqueness of an exact solution is proved and the analytical representation of the solution is given. A direct methodanalytically solving such problems is proposed, in which all calculations are reproducible in any program of symbolic calculations.If the user sets the input parameters and the initial conditions of the problem, the computer codes check the conditions of existenceand uniqueness and of solution generate the analytical solution. The stages of the solution method are illustrated by twoexamples. The article uses computer algebra system Mathematica to demonstrate the results.

Elastic rods in contact provide a rich paradigm for understanding shape and deformation in interacting elastic bodies. Here, we consider the problem of determining the static solutions of two nested elastic rings in the plane. If the inner ring is longer than the outer ring, it will buckle creating a space between the two rings. This deformation can be further influenced by either adhesion between the rings or if pressure is applied externally or internally. We obtain an exact solution of this problem when both rings are assumed inextensible and unshearable. Through a variational formulation of the problem, we identify the boundary conditions at the contact point and use the Kirchhoff analogy to give exact solutions of the problems in terms of elliptic functions. The role of both adhesion and pressure is explored.

The problem of freezing or melting of a polymorphous material in a semi-infinite region with arbitrarily prescribed initial and boundary conditions is studied. Exact solutions of the problem are established. The solutions of temperature of all phases are expressed in polynomials and functions in the error integral family and time t and the position of the interfacial boundaries in power series of t1/2. Existence and uniqueness of the series solutions are considered and proved. It is also shown that these series are absolutely and uniformly convergent. The paper concludes with some remarks on density changes at the interfacial boundary and various special cases, one of which is the similarity solution.

In this paper, exact solutions of different variants of second order hyperbolic telegraph equation are investigated with Homotopy Perturbation Method (HPM). The results determined by the proposed method are quite satisfactory and shows that HPM technique is very effective and useful for solving the nonlinear partial differential equations (PDEs) with given initial or boundary conditions. The proposed iterative scheme finds the solution without any discretization, linearization or restrictive assumptions.BIBECHANA 14 (2017) 30-36
