AbstractA generalization of the usual method of similarity analysis of differential equations, the method of partially invariant solutions, was introduced by Ovsiannikov. The degree of non-invariance of these solutions is characterized by the defect of invariance d. We develop an algorithm leading to partially invariant solutions of quasilinear systems of first-order partial differential equations. We apply the algorithm to the non-linear equations of the two-dimensional non-stationary ideal MHD with a magnetic field perpendicular to the plane of motion.

The deviations of a gear’s real tooth surface from the theoretical surface are determined by coordinate measurements at the grid of the surface. A method has been developed to transform the deviations from Cartesian coordinates to those along the normal at the measurement locations. Equations are derived that relate the first order deviations with the adjustment to the manufacturing machine tool settings. The deviations of the entire surface are minimized. The minimization is achieved by application of the least-square method for an overdetermined system of linear equations. The proposed method is illustrated with a numerical example for hypoid gear and pinion.

Abstract The buckling and initial postbuckling behavior of face-sheet delaminations or face-sheet/core debonds is studied by a perturbation procedure. The procedure is based on the nonlinear beam equation with transverse shear included, and an asymptotic expansion of the load and deformation quantities. First the characteristic equation for the critical load is formulated and this is a nonlinear algebraic equation. Subsequently, the first order load is found from a system of linear equations and the initial postbuckling behavior can thus be studied. The procedure can be easily expanded to the higher order terms. The effect of transverse shear is illustrated with results on the critical strain and the initial postbuckling displacement.

In this paper we give a criterion to discriminate the entropy solution to quasi-linear equations of first order among weak solutions. This uniqueness statement is a generalization of Oleinik's criterion, which makes reference to the measure of the increasing character of weak solutions. The link between Oleinik's criterion and the entropy condition due to Kruzhkov is also clarified. An application of this analysis to the convergence of the particle method for conservation laws is also given by using the Filippov characteristics.
