The problem of radially symmetric motion is examined for a pre-existing micro-void in the interior of a sphere under a suddenly applied outer surface tensile load, where the sphere is composed of a homogeneous incompressible hyper-elastic material. Through qualitatively analyzing the second-order ordinary differential equation that describes the motion of the pre-existing micro-void with time, some interesting conclusions are proposed. For any given values of surface tensile loads, it is proved that the motion of the pre-existing micro-void with time presents a nonlinear periodic oscillation, however, in certain cases, the oscillation amplitude increases discontinuously with the increasing values of surface tensile loads. Finally, based on the known transversely isotropic incompressible Gent-Thomas material model as an example, numerical simulations are carried out.

In this article, we investigate a two-dimensional generalized shallow water wave equation. Lie symmetries of the equation are computed first and then used to perform symmetry reductions. By utilizing the three translation symmetries of the equation, a fourth-order ordinary differential equation is obtained and solved in terms of an incomplete elliptic integral. Moreover, with the aid of Kudryashov’s approach, more closed-form solutions are constructed. In addition, energy and linear momentum conservation laws for the underlying equation are computed by engaging the multiplier approach as well as Noether’s theorem.

Multiaxial testing of the small intestinal wall is critical for understanding its biomechanical properties and defining material models, but limited data and material models are available. The aim of the present study was to develop a microstructure-based material model for the small intestine and test whether there was a significant variation in the passive biomechanical properties along the length of the organ. Rat tissue was cut into eight segments that underwent inflation/extension testing, and their nonlinearly hyper-elastic and anisotropic response was characterized by a fiber-reinforced model. Extensive parametric analysis showed a non-significant contribution to the model of the isotropic matrix and circumferential-fiber family, leading also to severe over-parameterization. Such issues were not apparent with the reduced neo-Hookean and (axial and diagonal)-fiber family model, that provided equally accurate fitting results. Absence from the model of either the axial or diagonal-fiber families led to ill representations of the force- and pressure-diameter data, respectively. The primary direction of anisotropy, designated by the estimated orientation angle of diagonal-fiber families, was about 35° to the axial direction, corroborating prior microscopic observations of submucosal collagen-fiber orientation. The estimated model parameters varied across and within the duodenum, jejunum, and ileum, corroborating histologically assessed segmental differences in layer thicknesses.


The problem involves the determination of a biharmonic generalized plane-stress function satisfying certain boundary conditions. We expand the stress function in a series of non-orthogonal eigenfunctions. Each of these is expanded in a series of orthogonal functions which satisfy a certain fourth-order ordinary differential equation and the boundary conditions implied by the fact that the sides are stress-free. By this method the coefficients involved in the biharmonic stress function corresponding to any arbitrary combination of stress on the end can be obtained directly from two numerical matrices published here The method is illustrated by four examples which cast light on the application of St Venant’s principle to the strip. In a further paper by one of the authors, the method will be applied to the problem of the finite rectangle.

In this paper the nonlinear transversal vibration of axially moving yarn with time-dependent tension is investigated. Yarn material is modeled as Kelvin element. A partial differential equation governing the transversal vibration is derived from Newtons second law. Galerkin method is used to truncate the governing nonlinear differential equation, and thus first-order ordinary differential equation is obtained. The periodic vibration equation and the natural frequency of moving yarn are received by applying homotopy perturbation method. As a result, the condition which should be avoided in the weaving process for resonance is obtained.

The existence of quasi-periodic eigensolutions of a linear second order ordinary differential equation with quasi-periodic coefficient f{ω1t, ω2t) is investigated numerically and graphically. For sufficiently incommensurate frequencies ω1, ω2, a doubly indexed infinite sequence of eigenvalues and eigenmodes is obtained.The equation considered is a model for the magneto-hydrodynamic “continuum” in general toroidal geometry. The result suggests that continuum modes exist at least on sufficiently ir-rational magnetic surfaces

This paper is aimed at deriving a 2-point zero stable numerical algorithm of block backward differentiation formula using Taylor series expansion, for solving first order ordinary differential equation. The order and zero stability of the method are investigated and the derived method is found to be zero stable and of order 3. Hence, the method is suitable for solving first order ordinary differential equation. Implementation of the method has been considered
