This paper studies the third problem for the Laplace equation on a bounded planar domain with inside cracks. The third condition∂u/∂n+hu=fis given on the boundary of the domain. The skip of the functionu+−u−=gand the modified skip of the normal derivatives(∂u/∂n)+−(∂u/∂n)−+hu+=fare given on cracks. The solution is looked for in the form of the sum of a modified single-layer potential and a double-layer potential. The solution of the corresponding integral equation is constructed.

We study the Dirichlet problem for the equationΔu−k2u=0in the exterior of nonclosed Lipschitz surfaces inR3. The Dirichlet problem for the Laplace equation is a particular case of our problem. Theorems on existence and uniqueness of a weak solution of the problem are proved. The integral representation for a solution is obtained in the form of single-layer potential. The density in the potential is defined as a solution of the operator (integral) equation, which is uniquely solvable.

In this paper, we employ the nondimensional dynamic influence function (NDIF) method to solve the free vibration problem of an elliptical membrane. It is found that the spurious eigensolutions appear in the Dirichlet problem by using the double-layer potential approach. Besides, the spurious eigensolutions also occur in the Neumann problem if the single-layer potential approach is utilized. Owing to the appearance of spurious eigensolutions accompanied with true eigensolutions, singular value decomposition (SVD) updating techniques are employed to extract out true and spurious eigenvalues. Since the circulant property in the discrete system is broken, the analytical prediction for the spurious solution is achieved by using the indirect boundary integral formulation. To analytically study the eigenproblems containing the elliptical boundaries, the fundamental solution is expanded into a degenerate kernel by using the elliptical coordinates and the unknown coefficients are expanded by using the eigenfunction expansion. True and spurious eigenvalues are simultaneously found to be the zeros of the modified Mathieu functions of the first kind for the Dirichlet problem when using the single-layer potential formulation, while both true and spurious eigenvalues appear to be the zeros of the derivative of modified Mathieu function for the Neumann problem by using the double-layer potential formulation. By choosing only the imaginary-part kernel in the indirect boundary integral equation method (BIEM) to solve the eigenproblem of an elliptical membrane, spurious eigensolutions also appear at the same position with those of NDIF since boundary distribution can be lumped. The NDIF method can be seen as a special case of the indirect BIEM by lumping the boundary distribution. Both the analytical study and the numerical experiments match well with the same true and spurious solutions.

Pocklington's model consists in a one-dimensional integral equation relating the current at the surface of a straight finite wire to the tangential trace of an incident electromagnetic field. It is a simplification of the more usual single layer potential equation posed on a two-dimensional surface. We are interested in estimating the error between the solution of the exact integral equation and the solution of Pocklington's model. We address this problem for the model case of acoustics in a smooth geometry using results of asymptotic analysis.

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.
