AbstractWe consider the problem of waves propagating in a viscoelastic solid. For the material properties of the solid we consider both classical and fractional differentiation in time versions of the Zener, Maxwell, and Voigt models, where the coupling of different models within the same solid are covered as well. Stability of each model is investigated in the Laplace domain, and these are then translated to time-domain estimates. With the use of semigroup theory, some time-domain results are also given which avoid using the Laplace transform and give sharper estimates. We take the time to develop and explain the theory necessary to understand the relation between the equations we solve in the Laplace domain and those in the time-domain which are written using the language of causal tempered distributions. Finally we offer some numerical experiments that highlight some of the differences between the models and how different parameters effect the results.

In this paper, we propose and study the uniaxial perfectly matched layer (PML) method for three-dimensional time-domain electromagnetic scattering problems, which has a great advantage over the spherical one in dealing with problems involving anisotropic scatterers. The truncated uniaxial PML problem is proved to be well-posed and stable, based on the Laplace transform technique and the energy method. Moreover, the $L^2$-norm and $L^{\infty}$-norm error estimates in time are given between the solutions of the original scattering problem and the truncated PML problem, leading to the exponential convergence of the time-domain uniaxial PML method in terms of the thickness and absorbing parameters of the PML layer. The proof depends on the error analysis between the EtM operators for the original scattering problem and the truncated PML problem, which is different from our previous work (SIAM J. Numer. Anal. 58(3) (2020), 1918-1940).

Full waveform inversion (FWI) can yield high resolution images and has been applied in Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) for around 20 years. However, appropriate selection of the initial models is important in FWI because such an inversion is highly nonlinear. The conventional way to obtain the initial models for GPR FWI is ray-based tomogram inversion which suffers from several inherent shortcomings. In this paper, we develop a Laplace domain waveform inversion to obtain initial models for the time domain FWI. The gradient expression of the Laplace domain waveform inversion is deduced via the derivation of a logarithmic object function. Permittivity and conductivity are updated by using the conjugate gradient method. Using synthetic examples, we found that the value of the damping constant in the inversion cannot be too large or too small compared to the dominant frequency of the radar data. The synthetic examples demonstrate that the Laplace domain waveform inversion provide slightly better initial models for the time domain FWI than the ray-based inversion. Finally, we successfully applied the algorithm to one field data set, and the inverted results of the Laplace-based FWI show more details than that of the ray-based FWI.

Thermal shock describes the way that a material exposed to a sudden change in temperature. These conditions usually take place in aerospace industry, when aircraft encounter the atmosphere layers. It also happens in combustion chamber of engines when mixture of fuel and air ignite in cylinder. Classical thermoelasticity is not capable to analyze such a problem. Therefore, generalized coupled thermoelasticity theories arose. In this article, the dynamic coupled thermoelastic response of a rectangular plate made of functionally graded material subjected to a thermal shock based on Lord-Shulman theory is studied. Using state space approach, the state equations of the problem are obtained. The plate’s boundary condition is simply support on the edges and the variation of mechanical properties is assumed to change along the thickness of the plate. The Laplace transform is applied to transform governing equations from time domain to the Laplace domain. Then by using a numerical method, the equations are solved and the results are inversed to the time domain displacement and temperature field are acquired. Results are presented for different power law indices and they are validated by previous reported literature.

Abstract The paper proposes an approach to constructing a mathematical model of lattice functions, which are mainly used in the study of discrete control systems in the time and domain of the Laplace transform. The proposed approach is based on the assumption of the physical absence of an impulse element. An alternative to the classical approach to the description of discrete data acquisition - the process of quantization in time, is considered. As a result, models of the lattice function in the time domain and the domain of the discrete Laplace transform are obtained. Based on the obtained mathematical models of lattice functions, a mathematical model of the time quantization element of the system is obtained. This will allow in the future to proceed to the construction of mathematical models of various discrete control systems, incl. expanding the proposed approaches to the construction of mathematical models of multi-cycle continuous-discrete automatic control systems

Numerical time- or frequency-domain techniques can be used to analyze motion responses of a floating structure in waves. Time-domain simulations of a linear transient or nonlinear system usually involve a convolution terms and are computationally demanding, and frequency-domain models are usually limited to steady-state responses. Recent research efforts have focused on improving model efficiency by approximating and replacing the convolution term in the time domain simulation. Contrary to existed techniques, this paper will utilize and extend a more novel method to the frequency response estimation of floating structures. This approach represents the convolution terms, which are associated with fluid memory effects, with a series of poles and corresponding residues in Laplace domain, based on the estimated frequency-dependent added mass and damping of the structure. The advantage of this approach is that the frequency-dependent motion equations in the time domain can then be transformed into Laplace domain without requiring Laplace-domain expressions of the added mass and damping. Two examples are employed to investigate the approach: The first is an analytical added mass and damping, which satisfies all the properties of convolution terms in time and frequency domains simultaneously. This demonstrates the accuracy of the new form of the retardation functions; secondly, a numerical six degrees of freedom model is employed to study its application to estimate the response of a floating structure. The key conclusions are: (1) the proposed pole-residue form can be used to consider the fluid memory effects; and (2) responses are in good agreement with traditional frequency-domain techniques.

This paper presents a time-domain boundary element method (BEM) for viscoelastic wave scattering by many cavities in 3D infinite space. The convolution quadrature method (CQM) is applied to the convolutions of the time-domain boundary integral equation in order to improve the numerical stability of BEM. Scattering of an incident wave by cavities in a viscoelastic solid is solved by the developed time-domain BEM. The incident wave propagating in a viscoelastic solid in time-domain is obtained using the inverse Fourier transform of that in frequency-domain. In addition, the hybrid parallelization using OpenMP and MPI is used to save the computational time and memory.

AbstractAn integral transformation is denned over a finite interval of the time domain. When the Laplace transform exists, the finite transform yields identical results. However, the finite transform is found to be considerably more general than the Laplace transform. It permits consideration of functions which are not of exponential order, leads to a simple scheme to determine system response, and is applicable to boundary-value problems.
