We consider a classic boundary-value problem for deep-water gravity-capillary waves in a shear flow, composed of the Rayleigh equation and the standard linearized kinematic and dynamic inviscid boundary conditions at the free surface. We derived the exact solution for this problem in terms of an infinite series in powers of a certain parameter e, which characterizes the smallness of the deviation of the wave motion from the potential motion. For the existence and absolute convergence of the solution it is sufficient that e be less than unity.The truncated sums of the series provide approximate solutions with a priori prescribed accuracy. In particular, for the short-wave instability, which can be interpreted as the Miles critical-layer-type instability, the explicit approximate expressions for the growth rates are derived. The growth rates in a certain (very narrow) range of scales can exceed the Miles increments caused by the wind.The effect of thin boundary layers on the dispersion relation was also investigated using an asymptotic procedure based on the smallness of the product of the layer thickness and wavenumber. The criterion specifying when and with what accuracy the boundary-layer influence can be neglected has been derived.

Abstract A quasilinearization algorithm is developed for boundary value problems at resonance. To do so, a standard monotonicity condition is assumed to obtain the uniqueness of solutions for the boundary value problem at resonance. Then the method of upper and lower solutions and the shift method are applied to obtain the existence of solutions. A quasilinearization algorithm is developed and sequences of approximate solutions are constructed, which converge monotonically and quadratically to the unique solution of the boundary value problem at resonance. Two examples are provided in which explicit upper and lower solutions are exhibited.

Here we construct different approximate solutions of the plane inverse boundary value problem of aerohydrodynamics. In order to do this we solve some conditional optimization problems in the norms∥·∥2,∥·∥∞, and ∥·∥1and some of their generalizations. We present the example clarifying the mathematical constructions and show that the supremum norm generalization seems to be the optimal one of all the functionals considered in the paper.

Issues related to eigen-vibrations of elastic beams of variable cross-section are discussed. It is noted that one of the common features characteristic of boundary-value problems of mathematical physics is certain ambiguity of their formulations. A boundary-value problem of determining eigen-frequencies of a variable cross-section beam in displacements is formulated. By introducing new variables characterizing the behavior of the system, the boundary-value problem is reduced to three ordinary differential equations with variable coefficients. The new variables have a distinct physical meaning. One of the functions is linear density of the pulse and the other is bending moment in the cross-section of the beam. Such a formulation of the problem of free vibrations of a variable cross-section beam makes it possible to reduce the system of differential equations to a single fourth-order equation written in terms of pulse functions. This equation is equivalent to the initial one, formulated in displacements, but has a different form. A method of integral-differential relations, alternative to classical numerical approaches, is described. The possibility of constructing various bilateral energy-based evaluations of the accuracy of approximate solutions resulting from the method of integral-differential relations is studied. The projection approach to analyzing spectral problems of nonlinear beam theory is considered. The efficiency of the method of integral-differential equations is demonstrated, using the problem of free vibrations of a rectangular beam with a constructional depth quadratically varying along its length. Energy-based evaluations of the accuracy of the approximate solutions constructed using polynomial approximations of the sought functions are presented. It is shown that applying standard Bubnov-Galerkin's method to the problem of free vibrations leads to the appearance of complex eigen-frequencies. At the same time, the ratio of the imaginary component to the real one of the eigen-value is a relative inaccuracy of the solution of the boundary-value problem. The introduced numerical algorithm makes it possible to evaluate unambiguously the local and integral quality of numerical solutions obtained.

AbstractThis paper presents a computational frequency-domain boundary value analysis of acoustic metamaterials and phononic crystals based on a general homogenization framework, which features a novel definition of the macro-scale fields based on the Floquet-Bloch average in combination with a family of characteristic projection functions leading to a generalized macro-scale continuum. Restricting to 1D elastodynamics and the frequency-domain response for the sake of compactness, the boundary value problem on the generalized macro-scale continuum is elaborated. Several challenges are identified, in particular the non-uniqueness in selection of the boundary conditions for the homogenized continuum and the presence of spurious short wave solutions. To this end, procedures for the determination of the homogenized boundary conditions and mitigation of the spurious solutions are proposed. The methodology is validated against the direct numerical simulation on an example periodic 2-phase composite structure.

The nonlocal boundary value problem for Schrödinger equation in a Hilbert space is considered. The second-order of accuracy -modified Crank-Nicolson difference schemes for the approximate solutions of this nonlocal boundary value problem are presented. The stability of these difference schemes is established. A numerical method is proposed for solving a one-dimensional nonlocal boundary value problem for the Schrödinger equation with Dirichlet boundary condition. A procedure of modified Gauss elimination method is used for solving these difference schemes. The method is illustrated by numerical examples.
