Surface blending is widely applied in mechanical engineering. Creating a smooth transition surface of C2 continuity between time-dependent parametric surfaces that change their positions and shapes with time is an important and unsolved topic in surface blending. In order to address this issue, this paper develops a new approach to unify both time-dependent and time-independent surface blending with C2 continuity. It proposes a new surface blending mathematical model consisting of a vector-valued sixth-order partial differential equation and blending boundary constraints and investigates a simple and efficient approximate analytical solution of the mathematical model. A number of examples are presented to demonstrate the effectiveness and applications. The proposed approach has the advantages of (1) unifying time-independent and time-dependent surface blending, (2) always maintaining C2 continuity at trimlines when parametric surfaces change their positions and shapes with time, (3) providing effective shape control handles to achieve the expected shapes of blending surfaces but still exactly satisfy the given blending boundary constraints, and (4) quickly generating C2 continuous blending surfaces from the approximate analytical solution with easiness, good accuracy, and high efficiency.

A mathematical model was proposed for the transport of ions in a diaphragm separating an acidic and an alkaline electrolyte. Besides an approximate analytical solution, a more exact numerical one was presented. The model permits the calculation of the position of the neutralization zone in the diaphragm, rates of transport of ions, and potential in the diaphragm. The dependence of the position of the neutralization zone on the composition of both electrolytes and on the current density was calculated for two technically important cases.

The dynamics of a long hydrodynamic gas bearing is investigated for periodic variations of the rotational speed. The analysis is divided into two regions of interest, namely: (1) for small eccentricities the system is represented by a pair of linear differential equations with time-dependent coefficients. Investigation for a sinusoidally varying rotational speed proves that an unloaded bearing can be stable, though it is known not to be stable at all constant speeds. An approximate analytical solution is given for the orbit of a stable journal whirling about its equilibrium position. (2) For higher eccentricities the nonlinear equations describing the motion of the journal center are derived. When the speed perturbation is small, the equations may be linearized, and analytical expressions are obtained for the calculation of journal response. At given speed and eccentricity resonance is reached at the critical mass of instability threshold, but even for smaller mass the amplitudes are liable to endanger safe operation of the system.

This work deals with the analytical solution of advection dispersion equation arising in solute transport along unsteady groundwater flow in finite aquifer. A time dependent input source concentration is considered at the origin of the aquifer and it is assumed that the concentration gradient is zero at the other end of the aquifer. The optimal homotopy analysis method (OHAM) is used to obtain numerical and graphical representation.

The application of line-start permanent magnet synchronous motors (LSPMSMs) is rapidly spreading due to their advantages of high efficiency, high operational power factor, being self-starting, rendering them as highly needed in many applications in recent years. Although there have been standard methods for the identification of parameters of synchronous and induction machines, most of them do not apply to LSPMSMs. This paper presents a study and analysis of different parameter identification methods for interior mount LSPMSM. Experimental tests have been performed in the laboratory on a 1-hp interior mount LSPMSM. The measurements have been validated by investigating the performance of the machine under different operating conditions using a developed qd0 mathematical model and an experimental setup. The dynamic and steady-state performance analyses have been performed using the determined parameters. It is found that the experimental results are close to the mathematical model results, confirming the accuracy of the studied test methods. Therefore, the output of this study will help in selecting the proper test method for LSPMSM.

In this paper, approximate analytical solution of biochemical reaction model is used by the multi-step differential transform method (MsDTM) based on classical differential transformation method (DTM). Numerical results are compared to those obtained by the fourth-order Runge-Kutta method to illustrate the preciseness and effectiveness of the proposed method. Results are given explicit and graphical form.

AbstractNatural frequencies and vibration modes of axial compressor blades are investigated. A refined mathematical model based on the usage of an eight-nodal curvilinear isoparametric finite element was applied. The verification of the model is carried out by finding the frequencies and vibration modes of a smooth cylindrical shell and comparing them with experimental data. A high-precision experimental setup based on an advanced method of time-dependent electronic interferometry was developed for this aim. Thus, the objective of the study is to verify the adequacy of the refined mathematical model by means of the advanced time-dependent electronic interferometry experimental method. The divergence of the results of frequency measurements between numerical calculations and experimental data does not exceed 5 % that indicates the adequacy and high reliability of the developed mathematical model. The developed mathematical model and experimental setup can be used later in the study of blades with more complex geometric and strength characteristics or in cases when the real boundary conditions or mechanical characteristics of material are uncertain.
