Generalized Navier–Stokes Equations with Non-Homogeneous Boundary Conditions

We investigate the well-posedness of an initial boundary value problem for the Kelvin–Voigt–Brinkman–Forchheimer equations with memory and variable viscosity under a non-homogeneous Dirichlet boundary condition. A theorem about the global-in-time existence and uniqueness of a strong solution of this problem is proved under some smallness requirements on the size of the model data. For obtaining this result, we used a new technique, which is based on the operator treatment of the initial boundary value problem with the consequent application of an abstract theorem about the local unique solvability of an operator equation containing an isomorphism between Banach spaces with two kind perturbations: bounded linear and differentiable nonlinear having a zero Fréchet derivative at a zero element. Our work extends the existing frameworks of mathematical analysis and understanding of the dynamics of non-Newtonian fluids in porous media.

The Navier-Stokes equations with the kinematic and vorticity boundary conditions on non-flat boundaries

We give a simple and very complete proof of the existence of strong solutions to the nonhomogeneous problem (1.1) under the nonhomogeneous boundary conditions (1.5). See Theorem 1.2. See also the pioneering paper [42] by V.A. Solonnikov and V.E. Ščadilov, and [6].

Based on consolidation equations proposed for unsaturated soil, an analytical solution for 1D consolidation of an unsaturated single-layer soil with nonhomogeneous mixed boundary condition is developed. The mixed boundary condition can be used for special applications, such as tests occur in laboratory. The analytical solution is obtained by assuming all material parameters remain constant during consolidation. In the derivation of the analytical solution, the nonhomogeneous boundary condition is first transformed into a homogeneous boundary condition. Then, the eigenfunction and eigenvalue are derived according to the consolidation equations and the new boundary condition. Finally, using the method of undetermined coefficients and the orthogonal relation of the eigenfunction, the analytical solution for the new boundary condition is obtained. The present method is applicable to various types of boundary conditions. Several numerical examples are provided to investigate the consolidation behavior of an unsaturated single-layer soil with mixed boundary condition.

ABSTRACTFor arbitrary Reynolds number Re, aFNS theory O(1; δ2; δ3) significance scaled state variable achieves analytical closure of rigorously space filtered thermal, multi-species Navier–Stokes (NS) conservation principle partial differential equation (PDE) system well-posed on bounded domains (Part I). Validation of boundary commutation error (BCE) and nonhomogeneous Dirichlet boundary condition (DBC) resolution strategies results in ADh-GWSh-BCEh-DBCh algorithm coupling with aFNS theory optimal Galerkin GWSh + θTS CFD algorithm (Part II), including accuracy/convergence assessments. For Reynolds numbers ranging E+02 <Re < 2E+04, aFNS theory fully coupled k = 1 basis Galerkin CFD code generated a posteriori data enable theory quantitative validation. For assured laminar Re range, NS no-slip BC reduced and coupled aFNS theory code predicted quasi-steady thermal-velocity transition to periodic unsteady is validated via linear stability predicted critical Re. For Re exceeding assured laminar, theory coupled CFD data quantify spatial filtering annihilation of (laminar) NS predicted large wave number spectral content. For sufficiently large Re, coupled CFD code a posteriori data document first principles prediction of unsteady periodic wall attached velocity profile transitioning-from-laminar, then separation, fully turbulent profile reattachment followed by relaminarization. These large Re CFD data as well enable validation of perturbation theory O(1; δ2; δ3) significance scaled state variable, ADh-GWSh-DBCh algorithm prediction of O(δ2) state variable non-homogeneous Dirichlet BC DOF data and in concert thoroughly quantify theory generated O(δ2; δ3) state variable distributions.

We consider the Dirichlet problem for a quasilinear degenerate parabolic stochastic partial differential equation with multiplicative noise and nonhomogeneous Dirichlet boundary condition. We introduce the definition of kinetic solution for this problem and prove existence and uniqueness of solutions. For the uniqueness of kinetic solutions we prove a new version of the doubling of variables method and use it to deduce a comparison principle between solutions. The proof requires a delicate analysis of the boundary values of the solutions for which we develop some techniques that enable the usage of the existence of normal weak traces for divergence measure fields in this stochastic setting. The existence of solutions, as usual, is obtained through a two-level approximation scheme consisting of nondegenerate regularizations of the equations which we show to be consistent with our definition of solutions. In particular, the regularity conditions that give meaning to the boundary values of the solutions are shown to be inherited by limits of nondegenerate parabolic approximations provided by the vanishing viscosity method.

A discontinuous-Galerkin-based immersed boundary method with non-homogeneous boundary conditions and its application to elasticity

The paper establishes existence, uniqueness and regularity for the solution of a phase-field transition system with non-homogeneous Cauchy-Neumann boundary conditions. Moreover, some estimates for the solution are given. The non-linear parabolic problem considered here can be used to modeling the solidification (liquidification) process to a matter. The non-homogeneous boundary conditions (depending both on time and space variables) can be understood as a boundary control.

We consider an inverse parabolic problem of reconstruction of the source function, together with the traditional solution. In contrast with older literature, we consider non-homogeneous and time-dependent boundary conditions. We are able to prove a general result of convergence to a stationary state, and of asymptotic expansion as t → ∞.

We look for solutions of a nonlinear perturbed Schrödinger equation with nonhomogeneous Dirichlet boundary conditions. By using a perturbation method introduced by Bolle, we prove the existence of multiple solutions in spite of the lack of the symmetry of the problem.

An initial-boundary-value problem of 2D nonlinear Schrödinger equation in a strip

We develop a finite element method for the Laplace–Beltrami operator on a surface with boundary and nonhomogeneous Dirichlet boundary conditions. The method is based on a triangulation of the surface and the boundary conditions are enforced weakly using Nitsche’s method. We prove optimal order a priori error estimates for piecewise continuous polynomials of order k ge 1 in the energy and L^2 norms that take the approximation of the surface and the boundary into account.

Stokes and Navier-Stokes equations with Navier boundary conditions

In this work we introduce and analyze a mixed virtual element method for the two-dimensional nonlinear Brinkman model of porous media flow with non-homogeneous Dirichlet boundary conditions. For the continuous formulation we consider a dual-mixed approach in which the main unknowns are given by the gradient of the velocity and the pseudostress, whereas the velocity itself and the pressure are computed via simple postprocessing formulae. In addition, because of analysis reasons we add a redundant term arising from the constitutive equation relating the pseudostress and the velocity, so that the well-posedness of the resulting augmented formulation is established by using known results from nonlinear functional analysis. Then, we introduce the main features of the mixed virtual element method, which employs an explicit piecewise polynomial subspace and a virtual element subspace for approximating the aforementioned main unknowns, respectively. In turn, the associated computable discrete nonlinear operator is defined in terms of the $$\mathbb {L}^2$$ -orthogonal projector onto a suitable space of polynomials, which allows the explicit integration of the terms involving deviatoric tensors that appear in the original setting. Next, we show the well-posedness of the discrete scheme and derive the associated a priori error estimates for the virtual element solution as well as for the fully computable projection of it. Furthermore, we also introduce a second element-by-element postprocessing formula for the pseudostress, which yields an optimally convergent approximation of this unknown with respect to the broken $$\mathbb {H}(\mathbf {div})$$ -norm. Finally, several numerical results illustrating the good performance of the method and confirming the theoretical rates of convergence are presented.

The paper considers a mixed initial-boundary value problem for a parabolic equation with nonhomogeneous boundary conditions. The classical approach to search for analytical solution of such problems in the first phase involves variable substitution, leading to a problem with homogeneous boundary conditions. Reference materials [1] give, as a rule, the simplest types of variable substitutions where new and old unknown functions differ by a term, linear in the spatial variable. The form of this additive term depends on the type of the boundary conditions, but is in no way related to the equation under consideration. Moreover, in the case of the second boundary-value problem, it is necessary to use a quadratic additive, since a linear substitution for this type of conditions may be unavailable. The courseware [2] - [4], usually, ends only with the first boundary-value problem generally formulated. The paper considers a substitution that takes into account, in principle, the form of a linear differential operator. Namely, as an additive term, it is proposed to use the parametrically time-dependent solution of the boundary value problem for an ordinary differential equation obtained from the original partial differential equation by the method of separation of the Fourier variables. The existence of the proposed substitution for boundary conditions of any type is proved by the example of a non-stationary heat-transfer equation with the heat exchange available with the surrounding medium. In this case, the additive term is a linear combination of hyperbolic functions. It is shown that, in addition to the insensitivity to the type of boundary conditions, the advantages of a new substitution in comparison with the traditional linear (or quadratic) one include a much simpler structure of the solution obtained. Just the described approach allows us to obtain a solution with a clearly distinguished stationary component, in case a stationarity occurs, for values of the time variable that exceeds relaxation time. This effect extends not only to parabolic equations, but is also observed in equations describing oscillatory processes with damping. It is also shown that in the simplest particular case of an equation with constant coefficients without heat exchange with the surrounding medium, the proposed substitution becomes appropriately linear and coincides with the classical one. The use of the proposed approach allows students majoring in engineering to expand a range of educational and research tasks while learning a course in partial differential equations.
