This paper describes a development of a method which improves the computational efficiency for a linear stability analysis of a plate in an uniform incompressible and irrotational flow. We introduce the Fourier multiplier operator to formulate the fluid and plate interaction problem with the mixed boundary condition. In previous typical approaches, a singular integral equation often appears in the formulation of a pressure distribution on the plate. The computation time for solving the integral equation is one of the problem encountered in the stability analysis. Applying the Fourier multiplier operator to this system, the equation of the plate-fluid interaction problem can be formulated with a pair of the Fourier and the inverse Fourier transforms. Moreover, the integration to derive the equations of motion can be efficiently carried out by using the discrete Fourier transform.

A method is presented for the solution of frictionless contact problems on multilayered half-planes consisting of an arbitrary number of isotropic, orthotropic, or monoclinic layers arranged in any sequence. A displacement formulation is employed and the resulting Navier equations that govern the distribution of displacements in the individual layers are solved using Fourier transforms. A local stiffness matrix in the transform domain is formulated for each layer which is then assembled into a global stiffness matrix for the entire multilayered half-plane by enforcing continuity conditions along the interfaces. Application of the mixed boundary condition on the top surface of the medium subjected to the force of the indenter results in an integral equation for the unknown pressure in the contact region. The integral possesses a divergent kernel which is decomposed into Cauchy type and regular parts using the asymptotic properties of the local stiffness matrix and the ensuing relation between Fourier and finite Hilbert transform of the contact pressure. For homogeneous half-planes, the kernel consists only of the Cauchy-type singularity which results in a closed-form solution for the contact stress. For multilayered half-planes, the solution of the resulting singular integral equation is obtained using a collocation technique based on the properties of orthogonal polynomials. Part I of this paper outlines the analytical development of the technique. In Part II a number of numerical examples is presented addressing the effect of off-axis plies on contact stress distribution and load versus contact length in layered composite half-planes.

We study the boundedness properties of the Fourier multiplier operatoreiμ(D)onα-modulation spacesMp,qs,α  (0≤α<1)and Besov spacesBp,qs(Mp,qs,1). We improve the conditions for the boundedness of Fourier multipliers with compact supports and for the boundedness ofeiμ(D)onMp,qs,α. Ifμis a radial functionϕ(|ξ|)andϕsatisfies some size condition, we obtain the sufficient and necessary conditions for the boundedness ofeiϕ(|D|)betweenMp1,q1s1,αandMp2,q2s2,α.

Abstract In this paper, we establish the endpoint estimate ( 0 < p ≤ 1 {0<p\leq 1} ) for a trilinear pseudo-differential operator, where the symbol involved is given by the product of two standard symbols from the bilinear Hörmander class B ⁢ S 1 , 0 0 {BS^{0}_{1,0}} . The study of this operator is motivated from the L p {L^{p}} ( 1 < p < ∞ {1<p<\infty} ) estimates for the trilinear Fourier multiplier operator with flag singularities considered in [C. Muscalu, Paraproducts with flag singularities. I. A case study, Rev. Mat. Iberoam. 23 2007, 2, 705–742] and Hardy space estimates in [A. Miyachi and N. Tomita, Estimates for trilinear flag paraproducts on L ∞ L^{\infty} and Hardy spaces, Math. Z. 282 2016, 1–2, 577–613], and the L p {L^{p}} ( 1 < p < ∞ {1<p<\infty} ) estimates for the trilinear pseudo-differential operator with flag symbols in [G. Lu and L. Zhang, L p L^{p} -estimates for a trilinear pseudo-differential operator with flag symbols, Indiana Univ. Math. J. 66 2017, 3, 877–900]. More precisely, we will show that the trilinear pseudo-differential operator with flag symbols defined in (1.3) maps from the product of local Hardy spaces to the Lebesgue space, i.e., h p 1 × h p 2 × h p 3 → L p {h^{p_{1}}\times h^{p_{2}}\times h^{p_{3}}\rightarrow L^{p}} with 1 p 1 + 1 p 2 + 1 p 3 = 1 p {\frac{1}{p_{1}}+\frac{1}{p_{2}}+\frac{1}{p_{3}}=\frac{1}{p}} with 0 < p < ∞ {0<p<\infty} (see Theorem 1.6 and Theorem 1.7).

This paper addresses a formulation and an aeroelastic instability analysis of a plate in a uniform incompressible and irrotational flow based on the classical variational principle framework. Because of an intrinsic algebraic relation between the plate displacement and the velocity potential, this system has to be formulated as the constrained system. In this study, we tried to apply the Hamiltonian mechanics to the formulation of the fluid-structure interaction problem with mixed boundary condition. As a result, we obtain the canonical equations, that consist of the evolution equations for the plate displacement, the velocity potential, the Lagrange multiplier and canonically conjugate momenta for those physical quantities. In particular, it was found that the Lagrange multiplier was just the pressure. In other words, the equations of time evolution could be derived for not only the plate displacement and the velocity potential but also the pressure (the Lagrange multiplier). The stability of this system was analyzed by the eigenvalue analysis. Then, flutter modes, their frequencies and growth rates were discussed. The proposed technique has the advantage that it can reduce iteration procedures in the stability analysis. As a consequence, it can be expected that the stability of this system can be evaluated efficiently. This paper introduces a formulation of the only two dimensional problem, and the stability analysis of a clamped-free plate is implemented as an numerical example. Howerver, this formulation can be applied to three dimensional problems without intrinsic difficulties.

This paper will be devoted to study a class of bilinear square-function Fourier multiplier operator associated with a symbol $m$ defined by $$\begin{eqnarray}\displaystyle & & \displaystyle \mathfrak{T}_{\unicode[STIX]{x1D706},m}(f_{1},f_{2})(x)\nonumber\\ \displaystyle & & \displaystyle \quad =\Big(\iint _{\mathbb{R}_{+}^{n+1}}\Big(\frac{t}{|x-z|+t}\Big)^{n\unicode[STIX]{x1D706}}\nonumber\\ \displaystyle & & \displaystyle \qquad \times \,\bigg|\int _{(\mathbb{R}^{n})^{2}}e^{2\unicode[STIX]{x1D70B}ix\cdot (\unicode[STIX]{x1D709}_{1}+\unicode[STIX]{x1D709}_{2})}m(t\unicode[STIX]{x1D709}_{1},t\unicode[STIX]{x1D709}_{2})\hat{f}_{1}(\unicode[STIX]{x1D709}_{1})\hat{f}_{2}(\unicode[STIX]{x1D709}_{2})\,d\unicode[STIX]{x1D709}_{1}\,d\unicode[STIX]{x1D709}_{2}\bigg|^{2}\frac{dz\,dt}{t^{n+1}}\Big)^{1/2}.\nonumber\end{eqnarray}$$ A basic fact about $\mathfrak{T}_{\unicode[STIX]{x1D706},m}$ is that it is closely associated with the multilinear Littlewood–Paley $g_{\unicode[STIX]{x1D706}}^{\ast }$ function. In this paper we first investigate the boundedness of $\mathfrak{T}_{\unicode[STIX]{x1D706},m}$ on products of weighted Lebesgue spaces. Then, the weighted endpoint $L\log L$ type estimate and strong estimate for the commutators of $\mathfrak{T}_{\unicode[STIX]{x1D706},m}$ will be demonstrated.

Abstract The Aki-Larner method is one of the cheapest methods for synthetic seismograms in irregularly layered media. In this article, we propose a new approach for a two-dimensional SH problem, solved originally by Aki and Larner (1970). This new approach is not only based on the Rayleigh ansatz used in the original Aki-Larner method but also uses further information on wave fields, i.e., the propagation invariants. We reduce two coupled integral equations formulated in the original Aki-Larner method to a single integral equation. Applying the trapezoidal rule for numerical integration and collocation matching, this integral equation is discretized to yield a set of simultaneous linear equations. Throughout the derivation of these linear equations, we do not assume the periodicity of the interface, unlike the original Aki-Larner method. But the final solution in the space domain implicitly includes it due to use of the same discretization of the horizontal wavenumber as the discrete wavenumber technique for the inverse Fourier transform from the wavenumber domain to the space domain. The scheme presented in this article is more efficient than the original Aki-Larner method. The computation time and memory required for our scheme are nearly half and one-fourth of those for the original Aki-Larner method. We demonstrate that the band-reduction technique, approximation by considering only coupling between nearby wavenumbers, can accelerate the efficiency of our scheme, although it may degrade the accuracy.
