A time-domain boundary element method based on a Green function solution is derived for two-dimensional motions in the presence of a free liquid surface. Particular attention is given to the numerical evaluation of the required Green functions with regard to accuracy and speed of solution by choice of a computational algorithm appropriate to the domain of particular computations. The method is validated with reference to analytic solutions for submerged and floating cylinders in steady, transient and periodic motion. The intended application of the method is in the computation of wave response of slender ships at high Froude number by a fixed frame strip theory where the Green function obviates the necessity to panel the free surface with elements.

This paper presents a method of obtaining an analytic temperature solution for a two-layer heat conduction problem. Obtaining the temperature analytical solution for a multilayer heat conduction problem is not a direct method. The way to indentify the eigenvalues and to derive the Green function solution equation requires a different treatment since there are more than one domain to solve. This work presents a solution of a thermal twolayer problem based on Green’s functions.

This paper exhibits a simple, approximate Green function solution for the XY model of ferromagnetism in three dimensions from which we obtain the critical temperature, magnetization, internal energy, free energy, and entropy as a function of a magnetic field in the z direction. Comparison with Padé analysis of known high temperature series indicates an accuracy for TC in zero field to within 2% on all three cubic lattices and improved accuracy for nonzero fields. Solutions are obtained only for T ≥ TC.

Abstract This article presents the displacement field produced by a point force acting on an athermal random fiber network (the Green function for the network). The problem is defined within the limits of linear elasticity and the field is obtained numerically for nonaffine networks characterized by various parameter sets. The classical Green function solution applies at distances from the point force larger than a threshold which is independent of the network parameters in the range studied. At smaller distances, the nonlocal nature of fiber interactions modifies the solution.

The Dirac delta function is a function that mathematically does not meet the criteria as a function, this is because the function has an infinite value at a point. However, in physics the Dirac Delta function is an important construction, one of which is in constructing the Green function. This research constructs the Green function by utilizing the Dirac Delta function and Green identity. Furthermore, the construction is directed at the Green function of the Poisson's equation which is equipped with the Dirichlet boundary condition. After the form of the Green function solution from the Poisson's equation is obtained, the Green function is determined by means of the expansion of the eigen functions in the Poisson's equation. These results are used to analyze the application of the Poisson equation in electrostatic.

In this paper, the time-fractional wave equation associated with the space-fractional Fokker–Planck operator and with the time-fractional-damped term is studied. The concept of the Green function is implemented to drive the analytic solution of the three-term time-fractional equation. The explicit expressions for the Green function G3(t) of the three-term time-fractional wave equation with constant coefficients is also studied for two physical and biological models. The explicit analytic solutions, for the two studied models, are expressed in terms of the Weber, hypergeometric, exponential, and Mittag–Leffler functions. The relation to the diffusion equation is given. The asymptotic behaviors of the Mittag–Leffler function, the hypergeometric function 1F1, and the exponential functions are compared numerically. The Grünwald–Letnikov scheme is used to derive the approximate difference schemes of the Caputo time-fractional operator and the Feller–Riesz space-fractional operator. The explicit difference scheme is numerically studied, and the simulations of the approximate solutions are plotted for different values of the fractional orders.

A study is presented of the generation of internal tides by barotropic tidal flow over topography in the shape of a double ridge. An iterative map is constructed to expedite the search for the closed ray paths that form wave attractors in this geometry. The map connects the positions along a ray path of consecutive reflections from the surface, which is double-valued owing to the presence of both left- and right-going waves, but which can be made into a genuine one-dimensional map using a checkerboarding algorithm. Calculations are then presented for the steady-state scattering of internal tides from the barotropic tide above the double ridges. The calculations exploit a Green function technique that distributes sources along the topography to generate the scattering, and discretizes in space to calculate the source density via a standard matrix inversion. When attractors are present, the numerical procedure appears to fail, displaying no convergence with the number of grid points used in the spatial discretizations, indicating a failure of the Green function solution. With the addition of dissipation into the problem, these difficulties are avoided, leading to convergent numerical solutions. The paper concludes with a comparison between theory and a laboratory experiment.

AbstractWe develop an accurate approximation of the normalized hyperbolic operator sine family generated by a strongly positive operator A in a Banach space X which represents the solution operator for the elliptic boundary value problem. The solution of the corresponding inhomogeneous boundary value problem is found through the solution operator and the Green function. Starting with the Dunford — Cauchy representation for the normalized hyperbolic operator sine family and for the Green function, we then discretize the integrals involved by the exponentially convergent Sinc quadratures involving a short sum of resolvents of A. Our algorithm inherits a two-level parallelism with respect to both the computation of resolvents and the treatment of different values of the spatial variable x ∈ [0, 1].
