Abstract This work presents a mathematical model, a computational scheme and experimental results describing the electrodynamic characteristics of a nonmagnetic, isotropic, E-polarized, nonlinear layered dielectric object with a cubically polarizable medium. The nonlinear object is irradiated by a quasi-homogeneous field, where the incident field constitutes of a packet of phase-synchronized plane oscillations. In the case under consideration the excitation may consist both of a highly intense electromagnetic field at a basic (fundamental) frequency, which results in the generation of the third harmonic, as well as of weakly intense fields at multiples of the basic frequency which produce no harmonics, but only have an influencing effect on the processes of wave radiation. The investigations were carried out within the setting of a coupled system approach at resonant excitation frequencies determined by the eigenvalues of the induced eigenvalue problems. A verification of the energy balance law is carried out. By means of estimations for the conditionalities of the occuring matrices, the level of degeneration of the induced non-self-adjoint spectral problems as well as the sensitivity of the coupled system of nonlinear boundary value problems with respect to computational errors are verified.

Abstract. Air quality models such as the EPA Community Multiscale Air Quality (CMAQ) require meteorological data as part of the input to drive the chemistry and transport simulation. The Meteorology-Chemistry Interface Processor (MCIP) is used to convert meteorological data into CMAQ-ready input. Key shortcoming of such one-way coupling include: excessive temporal interpolation of coarsely saved meteorological input and lack of feedback of atmospheric pollutant loading on simulated dynamics. We have developed a two-way coupled system to address these issues. A single source code principle was used to construct this two-way coupling system so that CMAQ can be consistently executed as a stand-alone model or part of the coupled system without any code changes; this approach eliminates maintenance of separate code versions for the coupled and uncoupled systems. The design also provides the flexibility to permit users: (1) to adjust the call frequency of WRF and CMAQ to balance the accuracy of the simulation versus computational intensity of the system, and (2) to execute the two-way coupling system with feedbacks to study the effect of gases and aerosols on short wave radiation and subsequent simulated dynamics. Details on the development and implementation of this two-way coupled system are provided. When the coupled system is executed without radiative feedback, computational time is virtually identical when using the Community Atmospheric Model (CAM) radiation option and a slightly increased (~8.5%) when using the Rapid Radiative Transfer Model for GCMs (RRTMG) radiation option in the coupled system compared to the offline WRF-CMAQ system. Once the feedback mechanism is turned on, the execution time increases only slightly with CAM but increases about 60% with RRTMG due to the use of a more detailed Mie calculation in this implementation of feedback mechanism. This two-way model with radiative feedback shows noticeably reduced bias in simulated surface shortwave radiation and 2-m temperatures as well improved correlation of simulated ambient ozone and PM2.5 relative to observed values for a test case with significant tropospheric aerosol loading from California wildfires.

Abstract A coupled system of wind, wind wave, and coastal circulation models has been implemented for southern Louisiana and Mississippi to simulate riverine flows, tides, wind waves, and hurricane storm surge in the region. The system combines the NOAA Hurricane Research Division Wind Analysis System (H*WIND) and the Interactive Objective Kinematic Analysis (IOKA) kinematic wind analyses, the Wave Model (WAM) offshore and Steady-State Irregular Wave (STWAVE) nearshore wind wave models, and the Advanced Circulation (ADCIRC) basin to channel-scale unstructured grid circulation model. The system emphasizes a high-resolution (down to 50 m) representation of the geometry, bathymetry, and topography; nonlinear coupling of all processes including wind wave radiation stress-induced set up; and objective specification of frictional parameters based on land-cover databases and commonly used parameters. Riverine flows and tides are validated for no storm conditions, while winds, wind waves, hydrographs, and high water marks are validated for Hurricanes Katrina and Rita.

An iterative algorithm is presented for analyzing the optimal resonant radiation properties of electromagnetic waves by cubically polarized nonlinear layers. The analysis is based on mathematical models for the rigorous treatment of the following problems: Self-consistent solution of both the system of boundary value problems of electrodynamics at resonant frequencies of excitation and generation, as well as the corresponding linearized eigenvalue problems with induced dielectric coefficients. The choice of the resonant excitation frequency of a nonlinear object in dependence on the real parts of the eigen frequencies of the spectral problems is discussed.

SynopsisWe consider nonlinear eigenvalue problems of the form Lu + F(u) = λu in a real Hilbert space, where L is a positive self-adjoint linear operator and F is a nonlinearity vanishing to higher order at u = 0. We suppose that there are gaps in the essential spectrum of L and use critical point theory for strongly indefinite functionals to derive conditions for the existence of non-zero solutions for λ belonging to such a gap, and for the bifurcation of such solutions from the line of trivial solutions at the boundary points of a gap. The abstract results are applied to the L2-theory of semilinear elliptic partial differential equations on ℝN. We obtain existence results for the general case and bifurcation results for nonlinear perturbations of the periodic Schrödinger equation.

Coupled system of second order linear and nonlinear boundary value problems occur in various fields of Science and Engineering including heat and mass transfer. In the formulation of the problem, any one of 81 possible types of boundary conditions may occur. These 81 possible boundary conditions are written as a combination of four boundary conditions. To solve a coupled system of boundary value problem with these converted boundary conditions, a Galerkin method with cubic Bsplines as basis functions has been developed. The basis functions have been redefined into a new set of basis functions which vanish on the boundary. The nonlinear boundary value problems are solved with the help of quasilinearization technique. Several linear and nonlinear boundary value problems are presented to test the efficiency of the proposed method and found that numerical results obtained by the present method are in good agreement with the exact solutions available in the literature.

Water wave-structure dynamic interaction problems are treated as eigenvalue problems of the coupled system by means of the boundary element method. The coupled system for a large-sized ocean structure is modelized generally with the three-dimensional continuum mechanics. The boundary integral equations of the coupled system are derived by the weighted residual method and related fundamental solutions. The solving scheme for the discretized equations is discussed in detail. Numerical examples of the three-dimensional problem are given to show the validity of the present method through the comparison with other results.
