The existing studies indicate polymers will present obviously different properties in tension and compression (bimodular effect) which is generally ignored because of the complexity of the analysis. In this study, a functionally graded piezoelectric cantilever beam with bimodular effect was investigated via analytical and numerical methods, respectively, in which a one-dimensional theoretical solution was derived by neglecting some unimportant factors and a two-dimensional numerical simulation was performed based on the model of tension-compression subarea. A full comparison was made to show the rationality of one-dimensional theoretical solution and two-dimensional numerical simulation. The result indicates that the layered model of tension-compression subarea also makes it possible to use numerical technique to simulate the problem of functionally graded piezoelectric cantilever beam with bimodular effect. Besides, the modulus of elasticity E* and the bending stiffness D* proposed in the one-dimensional problem may succinctly describe the piezoelectric effect on the classical mechanical problem without electromechanical coupling, which shows the advantages of one-dimensional solution in engineering applications, especially in the analysis and design of energy harvesting/sensing/actuating devices made of piezoelectric polymers whose bimodular effect is relatively obvious.

We present a method for solving the two-dimensional equation of transfer. The method can be extended easily to the general linear transport problem. The used technique allows us to reduce the two-dimensional equation to a system of one-dimensional equations. The idea of using the spectral method for searching for solutions to the multidimensional transport problems leads us to a solution for all values of the independant variables, the proposed method reduces the solution of the multidimensional problems into a set of one-dimensional ones that have well-established deterministic solutions. The procedure is based on the development of the angular flux in truncated series of Chebyshev polynomials which will permit us to transform the two-dimensional problem into a set of one-dimensional problems.

Peridynamics is a nonlocal continuum mechanics theory where its governing equation has an integro-differential form. This paper specifically uses bond-based peridynamics. Typically, peridynamic problems are solved via numerical means, and analytical solutions are not as common. This paper analytically evaluates peristatics, the static version of peridynamics, for a finite one-dimensional rod as well as a special case for two dimensions. A numerical method is also implemented to confirm the analytical results.

This paper deals with longitudinal rectangular fin arrays used in plate-fin heat exchangers. The temperature distribution and rate of heat transfer were obtained using one dimensional (1-D) and two-dimensional (2-D) solutions. The ranges of independent parameters within which the 1-D solution was within 1% from the 2-D solution were determined. Simple analytical solutions were determined for the rate of heat transfer, fin effectiveness, and augmentation factor. The aspect ratio at which the rate of heat transfer reached a maximum was determined, as well as the corresponding effectiveness and augmentation factor.

Two-dimensional compressible momentum and energy equations are solved numerically to obtain the effect of viscosity on gaseous flow in a micro converging-diverging nozzle. The numerical methodology is based on the Arbitrary-Lagrangian-Eulerian (ALE) method. The numerical computations were performed for a wide range of the diverging angle and throat height and for no-heat conduction flow. The results are compared with one-dimensional analytical solutions for flow in a conventional sized nozzle and the effects of the viscosity on gaseous flow in the micro-nozzle are discussed.

“Dynamical mixing”, i.e. relaxation of a stellar phase space distribution through interaction with the mean gravitational field, is numerically investigated for a one-dimensional self-gravitating stellar gas. Qualitative results are presented in the form of a motion picture of the flow of phase points (representing homogeneous slabs of stars) in two-dimensional phase space.
