Abstract The dynamic equations of motion obtained in the modeling of flexible structural systems with unknown rigid body gross motion are often highly nonlinear and possess time-varying coefficient matrices. The inherent characters of nonlinear large overall rigid body motion and linear small vibration are also involved in the system equations. Neither the implicit nor the explicit algorithm seems optimally suited and efficient by itself in dealing with these kinds of equations. This paper, therefore, presents a sequential implicit-explicit method in which it is attempted to achieve the attributes of both classes of algorithms. The equation system expressed in matrix form is first mapped to a subsystem in which the specified generalized coordinates are eliminated. The subsystem is then partitioned into two sets of coupled equations. One set of equations, describing the elastic motion, is linear with respect to the elastic generalized coordinates and is integrated implicitly. The other set of equations, governing the rigid body motion, contains the highly nonlinear coupling terms and is integrated explicitly with the back substitutions of the elastic kinematic properties already calculated in solving the first set of equations. A Newmark algorithm is employed to integrate the second order system of differential equations directly. A predictor-corrector scheme also coming from the Newmark algorithm is applied to the explicit integration. The procedures developed in the current paper are applied to simulating dynamic response of a complicated flexible system with mutually dependent rigid body unconstrained spherical motion and small elastic deformation.

In the present article, a direct approach, namely exp(-?)-expansion method, is used for obtaining analytical solutions of the Pochhammer-Chree equations which have a many of models. These solutions are expressed in exponential functions expressed by hyperbolic, trigonometric and rational functions with some parameters. Recently, many methods were attempted to find exact solutions of nonlinear partial differential equations, but it seems that the exp(-?)-expansion method appears to be efficient for finding exact solutions of many nonlinear differential equations.

AbstractThe aim of this paper is to study one class of nonlinear differential equations, which model the Antarctic circumpolar current. We prove the existence results for such equations related to the geophysical relevant boundary conditions. First, based on the weighted eigenvalues and the theory of topological degree, we study the semilinear case. Secondly, the existence results for the sublinear and superlinear cases are proved by fixed point theorems.

We discuss a third-order differential equation, involving a general form of nonlinearity. We obtain results describing how suitable coefficient functions determine the asymptotic and (non-)oscillatory behavior of solutions. We use comparison technique with first-order differential equations together with the Kusano–Naito’s and Philos’ approaches.

The aim of this work is to investigate the oscillation of solutions of higher-order nonlinear differential equations with a middle term. By using the integral averaging technique, Riccati transformation technique and comparison technique, several oscillatory properties are presented that unify the results obtained in the literature. Some examples are presented to demonstrate the main results.

Based on a new kind of analytical approach, namely the Optimal Auxiliary Functions Method (OAFM), a new analytical procedure is proposed to solve the problem of the annular axisymmetric stagnation flow and heat transfer on a moving cylinder with finite radius. As a novelty, explicit analytical solutions were obtained for the considered complex problem. First, the Navier–Stokes equations were simplified by means of similarity transformations that depended on different parameters and some combinations of these parameters, and the problem under study was reduced to six nonlinear ordinary differential equations with six unknowns. The OAFM proves to be a powerful tool for finding an accurate analytical solution for nonlinear problems, ensuring a fast convergence after the first iteration, even if the small or large parameters are absent, since the determination of the convergence-control parameters is independent of the magnitude of the coefficients that appear in the nonlinear differential equations. Concerning the main novelties of the proposed approach, it is worth mentioning the presence of some auxiliary functions, the involvement of the convergence-control parameters, the construction of the first iteration and much freedom to select the procedure for determining the optimal values of the convergence-control parameters.
