ABSTRACT A new class of one-dimensional solar wind models is developed within the general polytropic, single-fluid hydrodynamic framework. The particular case of quasi-adiabatic radial expansion with a localized heating source is considered. We consider analytical solutions with continuous Mach number over the entire radial domain while allowing for jumps in the flow velocity, density, and temperature, provided that there exists an external source of energy in the vicinity of the critical point that supports such jumps in physical quantities. This is substantially distinct from both the standard Parker solar wind model and the original nozzle solutions, where such discontinuous solutions are not permissible. We obtain novel sample analytic solutions of the governing equations corresponding to both slow and fast winds.

Conducting polymers comprises a new class of materials achieving electrical conductivities which rival those of the best metals. The parent compounds (conjugated polymers) are quasi-one-dimensional semiconductors. These polymers can be doped by electron acceptors or electron donors. The prototype of these materials is polyacetylene (PA). There are various other conjugated polymers such as polyparaphenylene, polyphenylenevinylene, polypoyrrole or polythiophene. The doped systems, i.e. the conducting polymers, have intersting potential technological applications such as replacement of conventional metals in electronic shielding and antistatic equipment, rechargable batteries, and flexible light emitting diodes.Although these systems have been investigated almost 20 years, the electronic structure of the doped metallic systems is not clear and even the reason for the gap in undoped semiconducting systems is under discussion.

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to investigate the heat transfer in an arbitrary cavity filled with porous medium. The geometry of the cavity is such that an isothermal heating source is placed centrally at the bottom of the cavity. The height and width of the heating source is varied to analyses its effect on the heat transfer characteristics. The investigation is carried out for three different cases of outer boundary conditions such as two outside vertical walls being maintained at cold temperature To, two vertical and top horizontal surface being heated to. To and the third case with top surface kept at To but other surfaces being adiabatic. Design/methodology/approach Finite element method is used to solve the governing equations. Findings It is observed that the cavity exhibits unique heat transfer behavior as compared to regular cavity. The cases of boundary conditions are found to affect the heat transfer rate in the porous cavity. Originality/value This is original work representing the heat transfer in irregular porous cavity with various boundary conditions. This work is neither being published nor under review in any other journal.

A method is presented for obtaining and optimizing the frequency response of one-dimensional damped linear continuous systems. The systems considered are assumed to contain unknown constant parameters in the boundary conditions and equations of motion which the designer can vary to obtain a minimum resonant response in some selected frequency interval. The unknown parameters need not be strictly dissipative nor unconstrained. No analytic solutions, either exact or approximate, are required for the system response and only initial value numerical integrations of the state and adjoint differential equations are required to obtain the optimal parameter set. The combinations of state variables comprising the response and the response locations are arbitrary.

A numerical method for solving a class of heat conduction equations with variable coefficients in one dimensional space is demonstrated. This method combines the Crank-Nicolson and Monte Carlo methods. Using Crank-Nicolson method, the governing equations are discretized into a large sparse system of linear algebraic equations, which are solved by Monte Carlo method. To illustrate the usefulness of this technique, we apply it to two problems. Numerical results show the performance of the present work.

In this article, we present a biphasic mixture theory based mathematical model for the hydrodynamics of interstitial fluid motion and mechanical behavior of the solid phase inside a solid tumor. The tumor tissue considered here is an isolated deformable biological medium. The solid phase of the tumor is constituted by vasculature, tumor cells, and extracellular matrix, which are wet by a physiological extracellular fluid. Since the tumor is deformable in nature, the mass and momentum equations for both the phases are presented. The momentum equations are coupled due to the interaction (or drag) force term. These governing equations reduce to a one-way coupled system under the assumption of infinitesimal deformation of the solid phase. The well-posedness of this model is shown in the weak sense by using the inf-sup (Babuska?Brezzi) condition and Lax?Milgram theorem in 2D and 3D. Further, we discuss a one-dimensional spherical symmetry model and present some results on the stress fields and energy of the system based on ??2 and Sobolev norms. We discuss the so-called phenomena of ?necrosis? inside a solid tumor using the energy of the system.
