Eigenfunction Expansion Method

An exact analytical solution is obtained for the problem of three-dimensional transient heat conduction in the multilayered sphere. The sphere has multiple layers in the radial direction and, in each layer, time-dependent and spatially nonuniform volumetric internal heat sources are considered. To obtain the temperature distribution, the eigenfunction expansion method is used. An arbitrary combination of homogenous boundary condition of the first or second kind can be applied in the angular and azimuthal directions. Nevertheless, solution is valid for nonhomogeneous boundary conditions of the third kind (convection) in the radial direction. A case study problem for the three-layer quarter-spherical region is solved and the results are discussed.

Concentration Phenomena

The eigenfunction expansion method is introduced into the numerical calculations of elastic plates. Based on the variational method, all the fundamental solutions of the governing equations are obtained directly. Using eigenfunction expansion method, various boundary conditions can be conveniently described by the combination of the eigenfunctions due to the completeness of the solution space. The coefficients of the combination are determined by the boundary conditions. In the numerical example, the stress concentration phenomena produced by the restriction of displacement conditions is discussed in detail.
