The Mathematical Model

The main goal of the current work was to study the coupled mechanism of thermophoretic transportation and mixed convection flow around the surface of the sphere. To analyze the characteristics of heat and fluid flow in the presence of thermophoretic transportation, a mathematical model in terms of non-linear coupled partial differential equations obeying the laws of conservation was formulated. Moreover, the mathematical model of the proposed phenomena was approximated by implementing the finite difference scheme and boundary value problem of fourth order code BVP4C built-in scheme. The novelty point of this paper is that the primitive variable formulation is introduced to transform the system of partial differential equations into a primitive form to make the line of the algorithm smooth. Secondly, the term thermophoretic transportation in the mass equation is introduced in the mass equation and thus the effect of thermophoretic transportation can be calculated at different positions of the sphere. Basically, in this study, some favorite positions around the sphere were located, where the velocity field, temperature distribution, mass concentration, skin friction, and rate of heat transfer can be calculated simultaneously without any separation in flow around the surface of the sphere.

Purpose The purpose of this study is to analyze the impacts of aqueous solutions such as NaCl-water and Sucrose-water on unsteady triple diffusive mixed convection flow along an exponentially decreasing external flow velocity in presence of suction/injection. Design/methodology/approach The proposed problem is modelled into dimensional partial differential equations which are nonlinear and coupled in nature. Non-similar transformations are used to transform these equations into non-dimensional form. To linearize the equations, quasilinearization technique has been used and then implicit finite difference scheme is used to discretise the linear partial differential equations. Findings The variations of various dimensionless parameters have been depicted on velocity, temperature and species concentration profiles for NaCl and Sucrose aqueous solutions through graphical representations. In addition, several results have been expressed through graphs pertaining to skin-friction coefficient, heat and mass transfer rates. The results indicate that the increase in Schmidt number raises the mass transfer rate for the case of NaCl-water and Sucrose-water solutions. Originality/value As per the authors’ best of knowledge, no investigations have been carried out in the literature on unsteady triple diffusive mixed convection flow along an exponentially decreasing mainstream velocity.

Abstract A sensitivity-based identifiability analysis of mathematical model for partial differential equations is carried out using an orthogonal method and an eigenvalue method. These methods are used to study the properties of the sensitivity matrix and the effects of changes in the model coefficients on the simulation results. Practical identifiability is investigated to determine whether the coefficients can be reconstructed with noisy experimental data. The analysis is performed using correlation matrix method with allowance for Gaussian noise in the measurements. The results of numerical calculations to obtain identifiable sets of parameters for the mathematical model arising in social networks are presented and discussed.

Spherical Bubbles

We consider the problem of the propagation of high-intensity acoustic waves in a bubble layer consisting of spherical bubbles of identical size with a uniform distribution. The mathematical model is a coupled system of partial differential equations for the acoustic pressure and the instantaneous radius of the bubbles consisting of the wave equation coupled with the Rayleigh–Plesset equation. We perform an analytic analysis based on the study of Lie symmetries for this system of equations, concentrating our attention on the traveling wave case. We then consider mappings of the resulting reductions onto equations defining elliptic functions, and special cases thereof, for example, solvable in terms of hyperbolic functions. In this way, we construct exact solutions of the system of partial differential equations under consideration. We believe this to be the first analytic study of this particular mathematical model.

There are a lot of examples in science and engineering that may be described using a set of partial differential equations (PDEs). Those PDEs are obtained applying a process of mathematical modeling using complex physical, chemical, etc. laws. Nevertheless, there are many sources of uncertainties around the aforementioned mathematical representation. It is well known that neural networks can approximate a large set of continuous functions defined on a compact set. If the continuous mathematical model is incomplete or partially known, the methodology based on Differential Neural Network (DNN) provides an effective tool to solve problems on control theory such as identification, state estimation, trajectories tracking, etc. In this paper, a strategy based on DNN for the no parametric identification of a mathematical model described by parabolic partial differential equations is proposed. The identification solution allows finding an exact expression for the weights' dynamics. The weights adaptive laws ensure the "practical stability" of DNN trajectories. To verify the qualitative behavior of the suggested methodology, a no parametric modeling problem for a couple of distributed parameter plants is analyzed: the plug-flow reactor model and the anaerobic digestion system. The results obtained in the numerical simulations confirm the identification capability of the suggested methodology.

A non linear mathematical model addressing the passive mechanism of the cochlea is proposed in this work. In this respect, the interaction between the basilar membrane seen as an elastic solid and fluids in both scala vestibuli and tympani is developed. Via the fluid/solid interface, a full fluid/solid interaction is taking into account. Furthermore a significant improvement of the existing models has been made in both fluid flow modelling and solid modelling. In the present paper, the flow is three dimensional and the solid is non homogeneous two dimensional membrane where the material parameters depend only on the axial distance. The problem formulation leads to a system of non linear partial differential equations. Solution of the linearized system of partial differential equations of the proposed approach is presented. The numerical results obvious a lower and upper limits of the cochlea resonance frequency versus the material parameters of the basilar membrane. It is shown that a monochromatic acoustic wave energises only a portion of the basilar membrane and the location of the excited portion depends on the frequency of the incident acoustic wave. Those results explain the ability of the cochlea in deciphering the frequency of sound with high resolution in striking similarity with the known experimental results. The mathematical model shows that the excited strip of the basilar membrane by a monochromatic acoustic wave is very small when a transverse wave exists in the basilar membrane. Thus, a transverse wave improves highly the resolution of the cochlea in deciphering the high frequency of the incident acoustic wave.

Unsteady Mixed Convection

Purpose This paper aims to probe the problem of an unsteady mixed convection stagnation point flow and heat transfer past a stationary surface in an incompressible viscous fluid numerically. Design/methodology/approach The governing nonlinear partial differential equations are transformed into a system of ordinary differential equations by a similarity transformation, which is then solved numerically by a Runge – Kutta – Fehlberg method with shooting technique and a collocation method, namely, the bvp4c function. Findings The effects of the governing parameters on the fluid flow and heat transfer characteristics are illustrated in tables and figures. It is found that dual (upper and lower branch) solutions exist for both the cases of assisting and opposing flow situations. A stability analysis has also been conducted to determine the physical meaning and stability of the dual solutions. Practical implications This theoretical study is significantly relevant to the applications of the heat exchangers placed in a low-velocity environment and electronic devices cooled by fans. Originality/value The case of suction on unsteady mixed convection flow at a three-dimensional stagnation point has not been studied before; hence, all generated numerical results are claimed to be novel.

The aim of this article is to fill part of the existing gap between the mathematical modeling of a green roof and its computational treatment, focusing on the mathematical analysis. We first introduce a two-dimensional mathematical model of the thermal behavior of an extensive green roof based on previous models and secondly we analyze such a system of partial differential equations. The model is based on an energy balance for buildings with vegetation cover and it is presented for general shapes of roofs. The model considers a vegetable layer and the substratum and the energy exchange between them. The unknowns of the problem are the temperature of each layer described by a coupled system of two partial differential equations of parabolic type. The equation modeling the evolution of the temperature of the substratum also considers the change of phase of water described by a maximal monotone graph. The main result of the article is the proof of the existence of solutions of the system which is given in detail by using a regularization of the maximal monotone graph. Appropriate estimates are obtained to pass to the limit in a weak formulation of the problem. The result goes one step further from modeling to validate future numerical results.

Abstract An investigation of unsteady hydromagnetic free convection flow of a viscous, incompressible and electrically conducting fluid past an impulsively moving vertical plate with Newtonian surface heating embedded in a porous medium taking into account the effects of Hall current is carried out. The governing partial differential equations are first subjected to the Laplace transformation and then inverted numerically using INVLAP routine of Matlab. The governing partial differential equations are also solved numerically by the Crank-Nicolson implicit finite difference scheme and a comparison has been provided between the two solutions. The numerical solutions for velocity and temperature are plotted graphically whereas the numerical results of skin friction and the Nusselt number are presented in tabular form for various parameters of interest. The present solution in special case is compared with a previously obtained solution and is found to be in excellent agreement.

AbstractAn analysis is presented to describe the hydromagnetic mixed convection flow of an electrically conducting micropolar fluid past a vertical plate through a porous medium with radiation and slip flow regime. A uniform magnetic field has been considered in the study which absorbs the micropolar fluid with a varying suction velocity and acts perpendicular to the porous surface of the above plate. The governing non-linear partial differential equations have been transformed into linear partial differential equations, which are solved numerically by applying the explicit finite difference method. The numerical results are presented graphically in the form of velocity, micro-rotation, concentration and temperature profiles, the skin-friction coefficient, the couple stress coefficient, the rate of heat and mass transfers at the wall for different material parameters.

Abstract The effects of thermal radiation and mass transfer on an unsteady hydromagnetic boundary layer mixed convection flow along a vertical porous stretching surface with heat generation are studied. The fluid is assumed to be viscous and incompressible. The governing partial differential equations are transformed into a system of ordinary differential equations using similarity variables. Numerical solutions of these equations are obtained by using the Runge-Kutta fourth order method along with the shooting technique. Velocity, temperature, concentration, the skin-friction coefficient, Nusselt number and Sherwood number for variations in the governing thermo physical parameters are computed, analyzed and discussed.
