Basic Ideas

A thin-ship perturbation analysis, suggested by Guilloton's basic ideas, is presented. The analysis may be regarded as an application of Lighthill's method of strained coordinates to a regular perturbation problem. An inconsistent second-order approximation in which the Laplace equation is satisfied to first order, and the boundary conditions both at the free surface and on the ship hull are satisfied to second order, is derived. When sinkage and trim, incorporated into the present analysis, are ignored, this approximate solution is shown to be essentially equivalent to the method of Guilloton.

The present study deals with the response of a forced nonlinear Mathieu equation. The equation considered has parametric excitation at the same frequency as direct forcing and also has cubic nonlinearity and damping. A second-order perturbation analysis using the method of multiple scales unfolds numerous resonance cases and system behavior that were not uncovered using first-order expansions. All resonance cases are analyzed. We numerically plot the frequency response of the system. The existence of a superharmonic resonance at one third the natural frequency was uncovered analytically for linear system. (This had been seen previously in numerical simulations but was not captured in the first-order expansion.) The effect of different parameters on the response of the system previously investigated are revisited.

Modal Coordinates

A theory is presented for representing the displacements of a substructure finite-element mathematical model with a reduced number of degrees of freedom. A first or second-order approximation is used for the substructure’s modal coordinates associated with significantly larger or smaller eigenvalues than the system eigenvalues of excitation. The derived representations of the substructure displacements are capable of employing any type of substructure natural mode; free-free, cantilever or hybrid mode, and of retaining the dynamic behavior of any frequency range. It is shown that the present representations compute the system eigenvalues of interest with satisfactory accuracy, and it appears that the second-order approximation methods compute the system eigenvalues with greater accuracy than the first-order methods.

Density Expansion

The self-consistently renormalized high-density expansion (SHDE) is first used to determine temperature dependence of order parameter. Free energy and magnetization of the Ising model has been calculated to the second order. It is shown that the unphysical discontinuity of the order parameter as a function of temperature, which appears in the first-order approximation, still remains in the second-order calculation. Based on the 1/d expansion, we then construct a method to select (1/z)i contributions from the high density expansion terms. This method is applied to the first and second-order self-consistent equation for magnetization. Selection of the first order in 1/z contributions within the first order of the SHDE leads to considerable improvement of the behavior of magnetization as a function of temperature, and application of the local approximation to the second order of the SHDE term gives an acceptable single-value behavior of the order parameter.

Horizontal Cylinders

This paper is to present experimental results of the first and second-order wave forces acting on three kinds of horizontally submerged cylinders. Wave height, wave frequency and the models’ submergence were varied in the experiments. These results are compared with the numerical calculations based on the regular perturbation theory. Through this study, it was found that the calculations of both the first and second-order wave forces coincide with the experiments when the cylinders are submerged at a sufficient depth. However, in the case that the cylinders are close to the free surface and/or wave amplitudes are relatively large, the experimental results become small compared with the calculations because of nonlinear effects, such as wave breaking observed in the experiments.

Vertical Cylinders

In this paper the interaction of a plane second order solitary wave with an array of four vertical cylinders is investigated. The fluid is assumed to be incompressible and inviscid. The diffraction analysis assumes irrotationality, which allows for the use of Boussinesq equations. A simultaneous expansion in a small nonlinearity parameter (wave amplitude/depth) and small dispersion parameter (depth/horizontal scale) is performed. Boussinesq models, which describe weakly nonlinear and weakly dispersive long waves, are characterized by the assumption that the nonlinearity and dispersion are both small and of the same order. An incident plane second order solitary wave is the Laitone solution of Boussinesq equations. The representation of variables as the series of small nonlinearity parameters leads to the sequence of linear boundary value problems of increasing order. The first order approximation can be determined as a solution of homogeneous differential equations and the second order approximation follows as a solution of non-homogeneous differential equations, where the right hand sides may be computed from the first order solution. For the case of a single cylinder an analytical solution exists. However, when dealing with more complex cylinder configurations, one has to employ numerical techniques. In this contribution a finite element approach combined with an appropriate time stepping scheme is used to model the wave propagation around an array of four surface piercing vertical cylinders. The velocity potential, the free surface elevation and the subsequent evolution of the scattered field are computed. Furthermore, the total second order wave forces on each individual cylinder are determined. The effect of the incident wave angle is discussed.

The Mean

Given a bearing of some specified shape, what is the effect of texturing its surfaces uniformly? Experimental and numerical investigations on this question have recently been pursued, which we complement here with a mathematical analysis. Assuming the texture length to be much smaller than the bearing’s length, we combine homogenization techniques with perturbation analysis. This allows us to consider arbitrary, 2D texture shapes. The results show that both the load capacity and the friction force depend, to first order in the amplitude, just on the mean depth/height of the texture. The dependence of the friction coefficient is thus of second order.

Theoretical Results

Because of the recognized inadequacy of first-order linearized surface-wave theory, the author has developed, for a three-dimensional body, a new second-order theory which provides a better description of free-surface phenomena. The new theory more accurately satisfies the kinematic boundary condition on the solid wall, and takes into account the nonlinearity of the condition at the free surface. The author applies the new theory to a submerged spheroid, to calculate wave resistance. Experiments were conducted to verify the theory, and their results are compared with the theoretical results. The comparison indicates that the use of the new theory leads to more accurate prediction of wave resistance.

Two concepts of first- and second-order differential of images are presented to deal with the changes of pixels. These are the basic ideas in mathematics. We propose and reformulate them with a uniform definition framework. Based on our observation and analysis with the difference, we propose an algorithm to detect the edge from image. Experiments on Corel5K and PASCAL VOC 2007 are done to show the difference between the first order and the second order. After comparison with Canny operator and the proposed first-order differential, the main result is that the second-order differential has the better performance in analysis of changes of the context of images with good selection of control parameter.

Multiple Scales Perturbation Method

The effect of waving bottom on the fluid surface wave was investigated. Starting from the basic equations of potential flow theory and boundary conditions, we used the multiple scales perturbation method to deduce fluid surface waves satisfy the first-order approximate equation and second-order approximate equation. Under the second-order approximation, the fluid surface waveform was simulated with the Matlab in the presence of different waving bottom form. The results show that there are three solitary waves on the surface of the fluid. With the development of time, the amplitude of each solitary wave has not changed. It seems that they are not affected each other and propagate independently. So it suggests that the waving bottom is effective for maintaining surface wave energy balance income and expenditure in spreading process.

We consider models for the pricing of foreign exchange derivatives, where the underlying asset volatility as well as the one for the foreign exchange rate are stochastic. Under this framework, singular perturbation methods have been used to derive first-order approximations for European option prices. In this paper, based on a previous result for the calibration and pricing of single underlying options, we derive the second-order approximation pricing formula in the two-dimensional case and we apply it to the pricing of foreign exchange options.
