The differential equations and boundary conditions for the problem of a foil bearing subjected to small variations in tape tension are developed. The numerical results show that the fluctuations of the foil are a function or the frequency parameter ω* = 2r0ωε1/3H0*/U and of the compressibility factor θ = T0/par0.

Abstract Exact elasticity solutions for stresses and deflections (displacements) in curved beams and rings of varying thicknesses are developed using polar elasticity and state of plane stress. Basic forms of differential equations of equilibrium, stress functions, and differential equations of compatibility are given. They are solved to develop expressions for radial, tangential, and shearing stresses for moment, force, and combined loadings. Neutral axis location for each type of loading is determined. Expressions for displacements are developed utilizing strain-displacement relationships of polar elasticity satisfying boundary conditions on displacements. In case of full rings stresses are as in curved beams with properly defined moment loading, but displacements differ satisfying different boundary conditions. The developments for constant thicknesses are used to develop solutions for curved beams and rings with T-sections. Comparative numerical results are given.

We present a comparison between Adomian decomposition method (ADM) and Tau method (TM) for the integro-differential equations with the initial or the boundary conditions. The problem is solved quickly, easily, and elegantly by ADM. The numerical results on the examples are shown to validate the proposed ADM as an effective numerical method to solve the integro-differential equations. The numerical results show that ADM method is very effective and convenient for solving differential equations than Tao method.

The present study is about the pressure-driven heated bi-phase flow in two slippery walls. The non-Newtonian couple stress fluid is suspended with spherically homogenous metallic particles. The magnetic susceptibility of Hafnium allures is taken into account. The rough surface of the wall is tackled by lubrication effects. The nonlinear coupled partial differential equations along with the associated boundary conditions are first reduced into a set of ordinary differential equations by using appropriate transformations and then numerical results were obtained by engaging the blend of Runge–Kutta and shooting techniques. The sway of physical quantities are examined graphically. An excellent agreement within graphical illustration and numerical results is achieved.

The problem of two normally intersecting cylindrical shells subjected to internal pressure is considered. The differential equations used for the shells are solved subject to the boundary conditions imposed along the intersection between the two cylinders. Details of a procedure for obtaining a numerical solution are given. Numerical results for a radius ratio of 1:2 are presented. Problems encountered in the numerical computation are discussed and the results of the analysis are compared with experiment.

Contained is the derivation of the equations for the self-acting foil bearing. These equations include the effects of bending stiffness of the tape and of compressibility of the lubricant. They are nonlinear, and the boundary conditions are divided equally between the two ends of the tape. These complications even make obtaining numerical solutions difficult. Linearized solutions are derived for large wrap angles neglecting the bending stiffness of the tape.

Analysis of the dynamic behavior of planar foil bearings is presented for the case when both self acting and external pressurization effects are present. From it, responses to arbitrary disturbances or initial conditions may be deduced. Graphical examples for the film response to step reduction in tension and to a moving pressurization source are shown.

Thenumerical solution of ordinary differential equations (ODEs)with boundary conditions is studied here. Functions are approximated by polynomials in a Chebychev basis. Sections then cover spectral discretization, sampling, interpolation, differentiation, integration, and the basic ODE. Following Trefethen et al., differential operators are approximated as rectangular matrices. Boundary conditions add additional rows that turn them into square matrices. These can then be diagonalized using standard linear algebra methods. After studying various simple model problems, this method is applied to the Orr–Sommerfeld equation, deriving results originally due to Orszag. The difficulties of pushing spectral methods to higher dimensions are outlined.

AbstractWe consider a new class of inverse problems on the recovery of the coefficients of differential equations from a finite set of eigenvalues of a boundary value problem with unseparated boundary conditions. A finite number of eigenvalues is possible only for problems in which the roots of the characteristic equation are multiple. The article describes solutions to such a problem for equations of the second, third, and fourth orders on a graph with three, four, and five edges. The inverse problem with an arbitrary number of edges is solved similarly.
