Solutions of Smooth Nonlinear Partial Differential Equations

: Complex physical phenomena involving chemically reacting systems or the transport of heat or fluids are often modeled by coupled systems of time-dependent, nonlinear partial differential equations. The difficulties in understanding the stability of the differential equation systems and in designing efficient, accurate numerical methods for their solution are widely recognized and were the focus of this research. We have worked on four general aspects of the analysis and numerical approximation of systems of partial differential equations. These areas of research are: (1) modeling aspects and stability analysis for nonlinear time-dependent partial differential equations; (2) use and analysis of finite element or finite difference methods to discretize coupled systems of nonlinear differential equations; (3) development of adaptive or local grid refinement capabilities to resolve local phenomena in large-scale applications; and (4) development of data structures, preconditioners, and efficient solution algorithms for large-scale problems on new computer architectures. Emphasis has been placed upon multiphase or multicomponent, transport-dominated flow processes with dynamic local phenomena. The research also involved a mix of analysis, algorithm development, and large-scale computation using newer computer architectures.

Solution of nonlinear partial differential equations from base equations

The work presents the analysis of the free boundary value problem related to the one-dimensional invasion model of new species in biofilm reactors. In the framework of continuum approach to mathematical modelling of biofilm growth, the problem consists of a system of non-linear hyperbolic partial differential equations governing the microbial species growth and a system of semi-linear elliptic partial differential equations describing the substrate trends. The model is completed with a system of elliptic partial differential equations governing the diffusion and reaction of planktonic cells, which are able to switch their mode of growth from planktonic to sessile when specific environmental conditions are found. Two systems of non-linear differential equations for the substrate and planktonic cells mass balance within the bulk liquid are also considered. The free boundary evolution is governed by a differential equation that accounts for detachment. The qualitative analysis is performed and a uniqueness and existence result is presented. Furthermore, two special models of biological and engineering interest are discussed numerically. The invasion of Anammox bacteria in a constituted biofilm inhabiting the deammonification units of the wastewater treatment plants is simulated. Numerical simulations are run to evaluate the influence of the colonization process on biofilm structure and activity.

We investigate the existence and Borel summability of formal power series in one variable with holomorphic coefficients, solutions of nonlinear partial differential equations with shrinkings having non-Kowalewski type in the complex domain. Sufficient conditions are given in terms of the shape of the functional partial differential equations and initial conditions. The existence and asymptotic behavior of local sectorial holomorphic solutions of these nonlinear functional partial differential equations are obtained as a by-product. We apply the results to the study of asymptotic the behavior of solutions of some advanced-argument partial differential equations in a neighborhood of infinity.

Homotopy perturbation method (HPM) is a semi-analytical technique for solving linear as well as nonlinear ordinary/partial differential equations. The method may also be used to solve a system of coupled linear and nonlinear differential equations. This chapter first illustrates the basic idea of the HPM. It uses the present method to solve a nonlinear ordinary differential equation, a nonlinear partial differential equation, and a coupled nonlinear system of partial differential equations. It is worth mentioning that the HPM can also be used for handling linear ordinary and partial differential equations. The test problems demonstrated in the chapter confirm that the HPM is an efficient method for solving linear/nonlinear ordinary, partial, and coupled differential equations. The series usually converges with an increase in the number of terms, but one may not expect the compact form solution always.

In this paper, a combined form of the Laplace transform method with the homotopy perturbation method (HPTM) is applied to solve nonlinear systems of partial differential equations viz. the system of third order KdV Equations and the systems of coupled Burgers’ equations in one- and two- dimensions. The nonlinear terms can be easily handled by the use of He’s polynomials. The results shows that the HPTM is very efficient, simple and avoids the round-off errors. Four test examples are considered to illustrate the present scheme. Further the results are compared with Homotopy perturbation method (HPM) which shows that this method is a suitable method for solving systems of partial differential equations.

Analytical solutions of the space–time fractional Kundu–Eckhaus equation by using modified extended direct algebraic method

A design method of finite dimensional nonlinear disturbance observer based control (NLDOBC) is proposed for a class of nonlinear dissipative partial differential equation (PDE) systems, where the disturbance is modeled by an exosystem of nonlinear ordinary differential equations (ODEs). Motivated by the fact that the dominant structure of the dissipative PDE is usually characterized by a finite number of degrees of freedom, the modal decomposition technique is initially applied to the PDE system to give a slow subsystem of low dimensional nonlinear ODEs. By using the nonlinear slow subsystem and exosystem, a nonlinear disturbance observer (NLDO) is constructed to estimate the disturbance. Then, on the basis of NLDO, an NLDOBC method is proposed in terms of linear matrix inequality (LMI) to ensure the exponential stability of the closed-loop PDE system in the presence of the modeled disturbance. Finally, the simulation results on control of one dimensional Fisher diffusion-reaction system show the effectiveness of the proposed method.

This article explores the observer-based feedback control problem for a nonlinear hyperbolic partial differential equations (PDEs) system. Initially, the polynomial fuzzy hyperbolic PDEs (PFHPDEs) model is established through the utilization of the fuzzy identification approach, derived from the nonlinear hyperbolic PDEs model. Various types of state estimation and controller design problems for the polynomial fuzzy PDEs system are discussed concerning the state estimation problem. To investigate the relaxed stability problem, Euler's homogeneous theorem, Lyapunov-Krasovskii functional with polynomial matrices (LKFPM), and the sum-of-squares (SOSs) approach are adopted. The exponential stabilization condition is formulated in terms of the spatial-derivative-SOSs (SD-SOSs). Additionally, a segmental algorithm is developed to find the feasible solution for the SD-SOS condition. Finally, a hyperbolic PDEs system and several numerical examples are provided to illustrate the validity and effectiveness of the proposed results.

Travelling wave solutions of nonlinear partial equations by using the first integral method

We tackle the important problem class of solving nonlinear partial differential equations. While nonlinear PDEs are typically solved in high-performance supercomputers, they are increasingly used in graphics and embedded systems, where efficiency is important. We use a hybrid analog-digital computer architecture to solve nonlinear PDEs that draws on the strengths of each model of computation and avoids their weaknesses. A weakness of digital methods for solving nonlinear PDEs is they may not converge unless a good initial guess is used to seed the solution. A weakness of analog is it cannot produce high accuracy results. In our hybrid method we seed the digital solver with a high-quality guess from the analog side. With a physically prototyped analog accelerator, we use this hybrid analog-digital method to solve the two-dimensional viscous Burgers’ equation—an important and representative PDE. For large grid sizes and nonlinear problem parameters, the hybrid method reduces the solution time by $5.7\times$116CCS CONCEPTS•Computer systems organization → Analog computers; Heterogeneous(hybrid)systems; • Hardware → Application specific integrated circuits; • Mathematics of computing → Nonlinear equations; Partial differential equations;

This study uses the optimal auxiliary function method to approximate solutions for fractional-order non-linear partial differential equations, utilizing Riemann–Liouville’s fractional integral and the Caputo derivative. This approach eliminates the need for assumptions about parameter magnitudes, offering a significant advantage. We validate our approach using the time-fractional Cahn–Hilliard, fractional Burgers–Poisson, and Benjamin–Bona–Mahony–Burger equations. Comparative testing shows that our method outperforms new iterative, homotopy perturbation, homotopy analysis, and residual power series methods. These examples highlight our method’s effectiveness in obtaining precise solutions for non-linear fractional differential equations, showcasing its superiority in accuracy and consistency. We underscore its potential for revealing elusive exact solutions by demonstrating success across various examples. Our methodology advances fractional differential equation research and equips practitioners with a tool for solving non-linear equations. A key feature is its ability to avoid parameter assumptions, enhancing its applicability to a broader range of problems and expanding the scope of problems addressable using fractional calculus techniques.

Recent advancement in the field of nonlinear analysis and fractional calculus help to address the rising challenges in the solution of nonlinear fractional partial differential equations. This paper presents a hybrid technique, a combination of Tarig transform and Projected Differential Transform Method (TPDTM) to solve nonlinear fractional partial differential equations. The effectiveness of the method is examined by solving three numerical examples that arise in the field of heat transfer analysis. In this proposed scheme, the solution is obtained as a convergent series and the result is used to analyze the hyper diffusive process with pre local information regarding the heat transfer for different values of fractional order. In order to validate the results, a comparative study has been carried out with the solution obtained from the two methods, the Laplace Adomian Decomposition Method (LADM) and Homotophy Pertubation Method (HPM) and the result thus observed coincided with each other. Inspite of the uniformity between the solutions, the proposed hybrid technique had to overcome the complexity of manupulation of Adomian polynomials and evaluation of integrals in LADM and HPM respectively. The methodology and the results presented in this paper clearly reveals the computational efficiency of the present method. Due to its computational efficiency, the TPDTM has the potential to be used as a novel tool not only for solving nonlinear fractional differential equations but also for analysing the prelocal information of the system.
