In this paper, an important study on the application of the α family of temporal discretization is presented. For spatial discretization the Galerkin Method (GFEM) was used. With the variation of the α coefficient in temporal discretization and through one numerical applications with exact solution, it will be possible to have an initial idea on how each one of the two suggested methods behaves. It is expected that this study can be able to advance several other studies within the domain of numerical simulation of physical problems. It is important to note that for all applications we will use a mesh that is considered gross, with the purpose of presenting a method that is robust, precise and mainly computationally economic.

The exact solution in the form of a finite series has been obtained for the problem of low modulus elastic medium contained in rigid spherical shells subjected to translational acceleration about its diametrical axis. Laplace transformation technique and the shifting theorem were used to obtain the Green’s functions for the potentials when the external acceleration is a Dirac delta function. The solutions are formally extended to external accelerations which are general functions of time by the convolution integral. The shear stress distribution for a unit step function acceleration is illustrated. The results obtained are used to judge the adequacy of this and other similar models for the study of closed head injury mechanism.

In this paper, numerical solutions of the advection-diffusion-reaction (ADR) equation are investigated using the Galerkin, collocation and Taylor-Galerkin cubic B-spline finite element method in strong form of spatial elements using an ?-family optimization approach for time variation. The main objective of this article is to capture effective results of the finite element techniques with B-spline basis functions under the consideration of the ADR processes. All produced results are compared with the exact solution and the literature for various versions of problems including pure advection, pure diffusion, advection-diffusion, and advection-diffusion-reaction equations. It is proved that the present methods have good agreement with the exact solution and the literature.

For many aspects of device design, an exact solution to Schrödinger’s equation is not needed. However, it may simultaneously be required that all of the physical features are clearly understood. The most important technique for approaching these problems is perturbation theory, since it is difficult to develop physical intuition by just numerical means. For the case of solutions to the time independent Schrödinger equation, such as where an electric or magnetic field is applied, time independent perturbation theory is very useful, and is typically adequate for many problems. In some cases, problems may need an exact solution, but it may not be necessary to consider all the levels, leading to the approximation of using just a few levels. If the Hamiltonian is time dependent, we use time dependent perturbation theory which leads to Fermi’s golden rule. The result leads to a Dirac delta-function which can be eliminated by using the density of states.
