Thenumerical solution of ordinary differential equations (ODEs)with boundary conditions is studied here. Functions are approximated by polynomials in a Chebychev basis. Sections then cover spectral discretization, sampling, interpolation, differentiation, integration, and the basic ODE. Following Trefethen et al., differential operators are approximated as rectangular matrices. Boundary conditions add additional rows that turn them into square matrices. These can then be diagonalized using standard linear algebra methods. After studying various simple model problems, this method is applied to the Orr–Sommerfeld equation, deriving results originally due to Orszag. The difficulties of pushing spectral methods to higher dimensions are outlined.

AbstractThis paper deals with non-self-adjoint differential operators with two constant delays generated by {-y^{\prime\prime}+q_{1}(x)y(x-\tau_{1})+(-1)^{i}q_{2}(x)y(x-\tau_{2})}, where {\frac{\pi}{3}\leq\tau_{2}<\frac{\pi}{2}<2\tau_{2}\leq\tau_{1}<\pi} and potentials {q_{j}} are real-valued functions, {q_{j}\in L^{2}[0,\pi]}. We will prove that the delays and the potentials are uniquely determined from the spectra of four boundary value problems: two of them under boundary conditions {y(0)=y(\pi)=0} and the remaining two under boundary conditions {y(0)=y^{\prime}(\pi)=0}.

The simplest elasticity model of the foundation underlying a slender beam under flexure was conceived by Winkler, requiring local proportionality between soil reactions and beam deflection. Such an approach leads to well-posed elastostatic and elastodynamic problems, but as highlighted by Wieghardt, it provides elastic responses that are not technically significant for a wide variety of engineering applications. Thus, Winkler’s model was replaced by Wieghardt himself by assuming that the beam deflection is the convolution integral between soil reaction field and an averaging kernel. Due to conflict between constitutive and kinematic compatibility requirements, the corresponding elastic problem of an inflected beam resting on a Wieghardt foundation is ill-posed. Modifications of the original Wieghardt model were proposed by introducing fictitious boundary concentrated forces of constitutive type, which are physically questionable, being significantly influenced on prescribed kinematic boundary conditions. Inherent difficulties and issues are overcome in the present research using a displacement-driven nonlocal integral strategy obtained by swapping the input and output fields involved in Wieghardt’s original formulation. That is, nonlocal soil reaction fields are the output of integral convolutions of beam deflection fields with an averaging kernel. Equipping the displacement-driven nonlocal integral law with the bi-exponential averaging kernel, an equivalent nonlocal differential problem, supplemented with non-standard constitutive boundary conditions involving nonlocal soil reactions, is established. As a key implication, the integrodifferential equations governing the elastostatic problem of an inflected elastic slender beam resting on a displacement-driven nonlocal integral foundation are replaced with much simpler differential equations supplemented with kinematic, static, and new constitutive boundary conditions. The proposed nonlocal approach is illustrated by examining and analytically solving exemplar problems of structural engineering. Benchmark solutions for numerical analyses are also detected.

SynopsisWirtinger-type inequalities of order n are inequalities between quadratic forms involving derivatives of order k ≦ n of admissible functions in an interval (a, b). Several methods for establishing these inequalities are investigated, leading to improvements of classical results as well as systematic generation of new ones. A Wirtinger inequality for Hamiltonian systems is obtained in which standard regularity hypotheses are weakened and singular intervals are permitted, and this is employed to generalize standard inequalities for linear differential operators of even order. In particular second order inequalities of Beesack's type are developed, in which the admissible functions satisfy only the null boundary conditions at the endpoints of [a, b] and b does not exceed the first systems conjugate point (a) of a. Another approach is presented involving the standard minimization theory of quadratic forms and the theory of “natural boundary conditions”. Finally, inequalities of order n + k are described in terms of (n, n)-disconjugacy of associated 2nth order differential operators.
