Internal tsunamis induced by an instantaneous seabed deformation are theoretically analyzed in this paper. Based on Hammack’s mathematical methods and findings, an in-depth and extensive study is performed to examine tsunami waveforms, especially at the initial stage. Waveforms of surface and internal tsunamis induced by three fundamental seabed uplifts, the rectangle-, cosine-, and sine-shape deformations, are solved to constitute an important base for analyzing waves generated by arbitrary seabed movements. A closed-form solution for the rectangle-shape deformation and analytic solutions for cosine and sine cases are obtained. The effects of spatial parameters on waveforms and the contributions of two frequency modes are investigated for the Boussinesq limit. The derived wave solutions not only improve the understanding of the formation of internal tsunamis but also provide an exact initial waveform for simulating wave propagation by various wave models.

This study investigates the problem of a semi-infinite hydraulic fracture that propagates steadily in a permeable formation. The fracturing fluid rheology is assumed to follow a power-law behaviour, while the leak-off is modelled by Carter’s model. A non-singular formulation is employed to effectively analyse the problem and to construct a numerical solution. The problem under consideration features three limiting analytic solutions that are associated with dominance of either toughness, leak-off or viscosity. Transitions between all the limiting cases are analysed and the boundaries of applicability of all these limiting solutions are quantified. These bounds allow us to determine the regions in the parametric space, in which these limiting solutions can be used. The problem of a semi-infinite fracture, which is considered in this study, provides the solution for the tip region of a hydraulic fracture and can be used in hydraulic fracturing simulators to facilitate solving the moving fracture boundary problem. To cater for such applications, for which rapid evaluation of the solution is necessary, the last part of this paper constructs an approximate closed form solution for the problem and evaluates its accuracy against the numerical solution inside the parametric space.

A mathematical model for getting the closed-form solution of main parameters of cylinder exhaust port is present, based on a few known parameters of variable-stroke engine (VSE). Considering lack of parameters in the initial stage of design, empirical formula is applied to solve the initial specific time-area value of exhaust port, and the initial port timing angle is solved by using logarithmic alignment method, thereby height and width of the exhaust port can be solved, then the precise specific time-area value and port timing angle are solved by using the coefficient calculation method and logarithmic alignment method respectively, so that the relative errors between initial and precise values of specific time-area value and port timing angle are defined as the relative errors of the mathematical model. Application examples show that the relative errors of the model is less than 3%.

ABSTRACT Star-forming regions in galaxies are surrounded by vast reservoirs of gas capable of both emitting and absorbing Lyman α (Lyα) radiation. Observations of Lyα emitters and spatially extended Lyα haloes indeed provide insights into the formation and evolution of galaxies. However, due to the complexity of resonant scattering, only a few analytic solutions are known in the literature. We discuss several idealized but physically motivated scenarios to extend the existing formalism to new analytic solutions, enabling quantitative predictions about the transport and diffusion of Lyα photons. This includes a closed form solution for the radiation field and derived quantities including the emergent flux, peak locations, energy density, average internal spectrum, number of scatters, outward force multiplier, trapping time, and characteristic radius. To verify our predictions, we employ a robust gridless Monte Carlo radiative transfer (GMCRT) method, which is straightforward to incorporate into existing ray tracing codes but requires modifications to opacity-based calculations, including dynamical core-skipping acceleration schemes. We primarily focus on power-law density and emissivity profiles, however both the analytic and numerical methods can be generalized to other cases. Such studies provide additional intuition and understanding regarding the connection between the physical environments and observational signatures of galaxies throughout the Universe.

Abstract Vehicle interior noise is the result of numerous sources of excitation. One source involving tire pavement interaction is the tire air cavity resonance and the forcing it provides to the vehicle spindle: This paper applies fundamental principles combined with experimental verification to describe the tire cavity resonance. A closed form solution is developed to predict the resonance frequencies from geometric data. Tire test results are used to examine the accuracy of predictions of undeflected and deflected tire resonances. Errors in predicted and actual frequencies are shown to be less than 2%. The nature of the forcing this resonance as it applies to the vehicle spindle is also examined.

A capacity analysis for generally correlated wireless multi-hop multi-input multi-output (MIMO) channels is presented in this paper. The channel at each hop is spatially correlated, the source symbols are mutually correlated, and the additive Gaussian noises are colored. First, by invoking Karush-Kuhn-Tucker condition for the optimality of convex programming, we derive the optimal source symbol covariance for the maximum mutual information between the channel input and the channel output when having the full knowledge of channel at the transmitter. Secondly, we formulate the average mutual information maximization problem when having only the channel statistics at the transmitter. Since this problem is almost impossible to be solved analytically, the numerical interior-point-method is employed to obtain the optimal solution. Furthermore, to reduce the computational complexity, an asymptotic closed-form solution is derived by maximizing an upper bound of the objective function. Simulation results show that the average mutual information obtained by the asymptotic design is very closed to that obtained by the optimal design, while saving a huge computational complexity.

This paper is dedicated to the study of the geometric average Asian call option pricing under non-extensive statistical mechanics for a time-varying coefficient diffusion model. We employed the non-extensive Tsallis entropy distribution, which can describe the leptokurtosis and fat-tail characteristics of returns, to model the motion of the underlying asset price. Considering that economic variables change over time, we allowed the drift and diffusion terms in our model to be time-varying functions. We used the I t o ^ formula, Feynman–Kac formula, and P a d e ´ ansatz to obtain a closed-form solution of geometric average Asian option pricing with a paying dividend yield for a time-varying model. Moreover, the simulation study shows that the results obtained by our method fit the simulation data better than that of Zhao et al. From the analysis of real data, we identify the best value for q which can fit the real stock data, and the result shows that investors underestimate the risk using the Black–Scholes model compared to our model.
