SummaryThe derivation of a non-linear theory on bending of orthotropic sandwich plates is carried out by the principle of complementary energy from elasticity. The governing differential equations and natural boundary conditions are obtained. The assumptions used are, namely, the facings are orthotropic thin elastic plates with negligible bending rigidities and are made of the same material; the orthotropic core can take the transverse shear only; and the transverse shortening of the core may be ignored. The geometrical non-linearities are equivalent to von Kármán’s theory for single-layered plates. Through the introduction of a “shear function”, the number of differential equations is reduced to three and the equations are in rather simple form. It appears that the equations obtained here would require, comparatively, the least amount of work for analysing the finite deflection sandwich plate problems having a wide range of properties of practical interest.

The wide range of industrial applications of flow across moving or static solid surfaces has aroused the curiosity of researchers. In order to generate a more exact estimate of flow and heat transfer properties, three-dimensional modelling must be addressed. This plays a vital role in metalworking operations, producing plastic and rubber films, and the continuous cooling of fibre. In view of the above scope, an incompressible, laminar three-dimensional flow of a Casson nanoliquid in the occurrence of thermophoretic particle deposition over a non-linearly extending sheet is examined. To convert the collection of partial differential equations into ordinary differential equations, the governing equations are framed with sufficient assumptions, and appropriate similarity transformations are employed. The reduced equations are solved by implementing Runge Kutta Fehlberg 4th 5th order technique with the aid of a shooting scheme. The numerical results are obtained for linear and non-linear cases, and graphs are drawn for various dimensionless constraints. The present study shows that improvement in the Casson parameter values will diminish the axial velocities, but improvement is seen in thermal distribution. The escalation in the thermophoretic parameter will decline the concentration profiles. The rate of mass transfer, surface drag force will reduce with the improved values of the power law index. The non-linear stretching case shows greater impact in all of the profiles compared to the linear stretching case.

The paper presents a design scheme of the linear dynamic feedback controller for some non-linear systems. These systems are mathematically described by matrix non-linear differential equations of the first and second orders. A first-order form of the studied systems includes some types of differential-algebraic equations. The stability property of the non-linear systems with the linear controller is assured by an appropriate definition of the system output, and the linear dynamic compensator is an important part of the feedback control system. The order of the dynamic part is equal to the size of the system input and is independent of the size of the system state vector. The asymptotic stability in the Lyapunov sense is analysed and proved by the use of Lyapunov functionals and LaSalle’s invariance principle. Stabilisation in a wide range of controller parameters improves the system’s robustness.

Here a system of two non-linear difference-differential equations, which is mathematical model of self-regulation of the sugar level in blood, is investigated. The analysis carried out by qualitative and numerical methods allows us to conclude that the mathematical model explains the functioning of the physiological system "insulin-blood sugar" in both normal and pathological cases, i.e. diabetes mellitus and hyperinsulinism.

The oscillation of non-linear neutral equations contributes to many applications, such as torsional oscillations, which have been observed during earthquakes. These oscillations are generally caused by the asymmetry of the structures. The objective of this work is to establish new oscillation criteria for a class of nonlinear even-order differential equations with damping. We employ different approach based on using Riccati technique to reduce the main equation into a second order equation and then comparing with a second order equation whose oscillatory behavior is known. The new conditions complement several results in the literature. Furthermore, examining the validity of the proposed criteria has been demonstrated via particular examples.

Stochastic delay differential equations with jumps have a wide range of applications, particularly, in mathematical finance. Solution of the underlying initial value problems is important for the understanding and control of many phenomena and systems in the real world. In this paper, we construct a robust Taylor approximation scheme and then examine the convergence of the method in a weak sense. A convergence theorem for the scheme is established and proved. Our analysis and numerical examples show that the proposed scheme of high order is effective and efficient for Monte Carlo simulations for jump-diffusion stochastic delay differential equations.
