Abstract Computational methods for the inverse problem of detecting the source of acoustical noise in an interior region from pressure measurements in the nearfield are discussed. The methods are based on a single layer potential representation of solutions to the Helmholtz equation. Regularization is peformed using the singular value decomposition and the conjugate gradient method.

We have developed a method to analytically evaluate the relationship between the source-receiver configuration and the retrieved wavefield in seismic interferometry performed by multidimensional deconvolution (MDD). The MDD method retrieves the wavefield with the desired source-receiver configuration from the observed wavefield without source information. We used a singular-value decomposition (SVD) approach to solve the inverse problem of MDD. By introducing SVD into MDD, we obtained quantities that revealed the characteristics of the MDD inverse problem and interpreted the effect of the initial source-receiver configuration for a survey design. We numerically simulated the wavefield with a 2D model and investigated the rank of the incident field matrix of the MDD inverse problem. With a source array of identical length, a sparse and a dense source distribution resulted in an incident field matrix of the same rank and retrieved the same wavefield. Therefore, the optimum source distribution can be determined by analyzing the rank of the incident field matrix of the inverse problem. In addition, the introduction of scatterers into the model improved the source illumination and effectively increased the rank, enabling MDD to retrieve a better wavefield. We found that the ambiguity of the wavefield inferred from the model resolution matrix was a good measure of the amount of illumination of each receiver by the sources. We used the field data recorded at the two boreholes from the surface sources to support our results of the numerical modeling. We evaluated the rank of incident field matrix with the dense and sparse source distribution. We discovered that these two distributions resulted in an incident field matrix of almost the same rank and retrieved almost the same wavefield as the numerical modeling. This is crucial information for designing seismic experiments using the MDD-based approach.

Abstract This paper reports some initial findings in the attempt to develop a robust method to identify more than one moving force on multi-span non-uniform continuous bridges. To keep the number of unknowns in the moving force identification problem to a minimum, the modified beam vibration functions are chosen as the assumed modes of a multi-span bridge. These modified beam vibration functions satisfy the zero deflection conditions at all the intermediate supports as well as the boundary conditions at the two ends of the bridge. The least squares method is used to solve the inverse problem to get the closest approximation to the moving forces. The pseudo-inverse to obtain the solution to the inverse problem is obtained by singular value decomposition. Only acceleration measurements are used for the moving force identification. The results show that this method is applicable and robust.

The force and torque on a particle that translates, rotates, or is held stationary in an incident flow within a channel with parallel-sided walls, are considered in the limit of Stokes flow. Assuming that the particle has an axisymmetric shape with axis perpendicular to the channel walls, the problem is formulated in terms of a boundary integral equation that is capable of describing arbitrary three-dimensional Stokes flow in an axisymmetric domain. The method involves: (a) representing the flow in terms of a single-layer potential that is defined over the physical boundaries of the flow as well as other external surfaces, (b) decomposing the polar cylindrical components of the velocity, boundary surface force, and single-layer potential in complex Fourier series, and (c) collecting same-order Fourier coefficients to obtain a system of one-dimensional Fredholm integral equations of the first kind for the coefficients of the surface force over the traces of the natural boundaries of the flow in an azimuthal plane. In the particular case where the polar cylindrical components of the boundary velocity exhibit a first harmonic dependence on the azimuthal angle, we obtain a reduced system of three real integral equations. A numerical method of solution that is based on a standard boundary element-collocation procedure is developed and tested. For channel flow, the effect of domain truncation on the nature of the far flow is investigated with reference to plane Hagen–Poiseuille flow past a cylindrical post. Numerical results are presented for the force and torque exerted on a family of oblate spheroids located above a single plane wall or within a parallel-sided channel. The effect of particle shape on the structure of the flow is illustrated, and some novel features of the motion are discussed. The numerical computations reveal the range of accuracy of previous asymptotic solutions for small or tightly fitting spherical particles.

AbstractThis paper investigates a Dirichlet problem for a time fractional diffusion-wave equation (TFDWE) in Lipschitz domains. Since (TFDWE) is a reasonable interpolation of the heat equation and the wave equation, it is natural trying to adopt the techniques developed for solving the aforementioned problems. This paper continues the work done by the author for a time fractional diffusion equation in the subdiffusive case, i.e. the order of the time differentiation is 0 < α < 1. However, when compared to the subdiffusive case, the operator ∂ tα in (TFDWE) is no longer positive. Therefore we follow the approach applied to the hyperbolic counterpart for showing the existence and uniqueness of the solution.We use the Laplace transform to obtain an equivalent problem on the space-Laplace domain. Use of the jump relations for the single layer potential with density in H −1/2(Γ) allows us to define a coercive and bounded sesquilinear form. The obtained variational form of the original problem has a unique solution, which implies that the original problem has a solution as well and the solution can be represented in terms of the single layer potential.
