Set Up

Light weight shafts reduce bearing forces and allow the use of smaller bearings, seals, and supports. The Minimum Principle is used to set up the problem of determining the minimum weight shaft for a specified critical speed of given order. Specific examples include simply supported shafts and cantilevered shafts with and without a disk. The designs are obtained from the solution to a nonlinear multi-point boundary-value-problem. Minimum weight configurations represent a standard against which other designs, such as stepped shafts, can be compared.

Abstract In this paper, we consider the existence of multiple positive solutions for the 2𝑛th order 𝑚-point boundary value problem: where (0,1), 0 < ξ 1 < ξ 2 < ⋯ < ξ 𝑚–2 < 1. Using the Leggett–Williams fixed point theorem, we provide sufficient conditions for the existence of at least three positive solutions to the above boundary value problem. The associated Green's function for the above problem is also given.

Fixed Point Result

AbstractThe aim of this paper is to introduce a new class of mixed contractions which allow to revise and generalize some results obtained in [6] by R. Gubran, W. M. Alfaqih and M. Imdad. We also provide an example corresponding to this class of mappings and show how the new fixed point result relates to the above-mentioned result in [6]. Further, we present an application to the solvability of a two-point boundary value problem for second order differential equations.

Abstract The results reported in this paper are concerned with the existence and uniqueness of solutions of discrete fractional order two-point boundary value problem. The results are developed by employing the properties of Caputo and Riemann–Liouville fractional difference operators, the contraction mapping principle and the Brouwer fixed point theorem. Furthermore, the conditions for Hyers–Ulam stability and Hyers–Ulam–Rassias stability of the proposed discrete fractional boundary value problem are established. The applicability of the theoretical findings has been demonstrated with relevant practical examples. The analysis of the considered mathematical models is illustrated by figures and presented in tabular forms. The results are compared and the occurrence of overlapping/non-overlapping has been discussed.

AbstractLet L, T, S, and R be closed densely defined linear operators from a Hubert space X into X where L can be factored as L = TS + R. The equation Lu = f is equivalent to the linear system Tv + Ru = f and Su = v. If Lu = f is a two-point boundary value problem, numerical solution of the split system admits cruder approximations than the unsplit equations. This paper develops the theory of such splittings together with the theory of the Methods of Least Squares and of Collocation for the split system. Error estimates in both L2 and L∞ norms are obtained for both methods.

Optimum stepped shaft designs are obtained through an application of Pontryagin’s Minimum Principle. Optimum designs are obtained for a given critical speed of specified order. Indexes of Performance to be minimized include mass and rotating inertia. A general problem formulation illustrates how constraints on stress, deflections, and geometric design are taken in account. Numerical solutions are obtained to nonlinear multi-point-boundary-value-problems. A Newton-Raphson algorithm was developed to determine step locations precisely in order to facilitate the convergence of the shooting method used to solve the boundary value problem. Numerical solutions are determined with an assumed critical speed; a Rayleigh quotient calculation is used to verify that the optimum design possesses the assumed value.
