The diffraction of a cylindrical acoustic wave from a slit in a moving fluid using Myers condition (J. Sound Vib. 71, 429 (1980)) is investigated, and an improved form of the analytical solution for the diffracted field is presented. The problem is solved analytically using an integral transform, Wiener–Hopf technique, and the modified method of stationary phase. The mathematical results are well supported by graphical discussion showing how the absorbing parameter and Mach number affect the amplitude of the velocity potential.

The effect of ion temperature on ion-acoustic solitary waves in the case of a two-ion plasma has been investigated using the pseudopotential approach of Sagdeev. An analytical solution for relatively small amplitudes has also been obtained. Our result has been compared, whenever possible, with the experimental result obtained by Nakamura. It is found that a finite ion temperature considerably modifies the restrictions on the Mach number obtained for cold ions.

Abstract This study derives an analytical solution of a one-dimensional (1D) advection-dispersion equation (ADE) for solute transport with two contaminant sources that takes into account the source term. For a heterogeneous medium, groundwater velocity is considered as a linear function while the dispersion as a nth-power of linear function of space and analytical solutions are obtained for and . The solution in a heterogeneous finite domain with unsteady coefficients is obtained using the Generalized Integral Transform Technique (GITT) with a new regular Sturm-Liouville Problem (SLP). The solutions are validated with the numerical solutions obtained using MATLAB pedpe solver and the existing solution from the proposed solutions. We exanimated the influence of the source term, the heterogeneity parameters and the unsteady coefficient on the solute concentration distribution. The results show that the source term produces a solute build-up while the heterogeneity level decreases the concentration level in the medium. As an illustration, model predictions are used to estimate the time histories of the radiological doses of uranium at different distances from the sources boundary in order to understand the potential radiological impact on the general public.
