    Symbolic computation of solitary wave solutions and solitons through homogenization of degree

    Full text link
    A simplified version of Hirota's method for the computation of solitary waves and solitons of nonlinear PDEs is presented. A change of dependent variable transforms the PDE into an equation that is homogeneous of degree. Solitons are then computed using a perturbation-like scheme involving linear and nonlinear operators in a finite number of steps. The method is applied to a class of fifth-order KdV equations due to Lax, Sawada-Kotera, and Kaup-Kupershmidt. The method works for non-quadratic homogeneous equations for which the bilinear form might not be known. Furthermore, homogenization of degree allows one to compute solitary wave solutions of nonlinear PDEs that do not have solitons. Examples include the Fisher and FitzHugh-Nagumo equations, and a combined KdV-Burgers equation. When applied to a wave equation with a cubic source term, one gets a bi-soliton solution describing the coalescence of two wavefronts. The method is largely algorithmic and is implemented in Mathematica.Comment: Proceedings Conference on Nonlinear and Modern Mathematical Physics (NMMP-2022) Springer Proceedings in Mathematics and Statistics, 60pp, Springer-Verlag, New York, 202

    Making Presentation Math Computable

    This Open-Access-book addresses the issue of translating mathematical expressions from LaTeX to the syntax of Computer Algebra Systems (CAS). Over the past decades, especially in the domain of Sciences, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM), LaTeX has become the de-facto standard to typeset mathematical formulae in publications. Since scientists are generally required to publish their work, LaTeX has become an integral part of today's publishing workflow. On the other hand, modern research increasingly relies on CAS to simplify, manipulate, compute, and visualize mathematics. However, existing LaTeX import functions in CAS are limited to simple arithmetic expressions and are, therefore, insufficient for most use cases. Consequently, the workflow of experimenting and publishing in the Sciences often includes time-consuming and error-prone manual conversions between presentational LaTeX and computational CAS formats. To address the lack of a reliable and comprehensive translation tool between LaTeX and CAS, this thesis makes the following three contributions. First, it provides an approach to semantically enhance LaTeX expressions with sufficient semantic information for translations into CAS syntaxes. Second, it demonstrates the first context-aware LaTeX to CAS translation framework LaCASt. Third, the thesis provides a novel approach to evaluate the performance for LaTeX to CAS translations on large-scaled datasets with an automatic verification of equations in digital mathematical libraries. This is an open access book

    Routines and Applications of Symbolic Algebra Software

    Computing has become an essential resource in modern research and has found application across a wide range of scientific disciplines. Developments in symbolic algebra tools have been particularly valuable in physics where calculations in fields such as general relativity, quantum field theory and physics beyond the standard model are becoming increasing complex and unpractical to work with by hand. The computer algebra system Cadabra is a tensor-first approach to symbolic algebra based on the programming language Python which has been used extensively in research in these fields while also having a shallow learning curve making it an excellent way to introduce students to methods in computer algebra. The work in this thesis has been concentrated on developing Cadabra, which has involved looking at two different elements which make up a computer algebra program. Firstly, the implementation of algebraic routines is discussed. This has primarily been focused on the introduction of an algorithm for detecting the equivalence of tensorial expressions related by index permutation symmetries. The method employed differs considerably from traditional canonicalisation routines which are commonly used for this purpose by using Young projection operators to make such symmetries manifest. The other element of writing a computer algebra program which is covered is the infrastruc- ture and environment. The importance of this aspect of software design is often overlooked by funding committees and academic software users resulting in an anti-pattern of code not being shared and contributed to in the way in which research itself is published and promulgated. The focus in this area has been on implementing a packaging system for Cadabra which allows the writing of generic libraries which can be shared by the community, and interfacing with other scientific computing packages to increase the capabilities of Cadabra

    This thesis investigates the finite element method with regard to the macrohomogeneous theory for flooded porous electrochemical cells, more specifically lead-acid cells. One- and two-dimensional finite element models are developed for flooded porous electrochemical lead acid cells. Chapter One introduces the background of the technology of lead-acid batteries, theory fundamentals, previous mathematical models for lead acid batteries, and the reason for the work. Chapter Two develops Newman’s macrohomogeneous equations for flooded porous electrodes. Chapter Three details the finite element theory, and how it is used to solve time dependent coupled non-linear partial differential equations. Chapter Four applies finite element theory to one-dimensional macrohomogeneous equations that describe lead-acid batteries. The results of the model are compared to previously published papers utilising finite difference methods. In Chapter Five, the technique is extend to two-dimensions and is validated with previously published papers of models on lead-acid batteries

    Review on Fixed and Floating Offshore Structures. Part II: Sustainable Design Approaches and Project Management

    Get PDF
    Offshore structures exist in a variety of forms, and they are used for a variety of functions in varied sea depths. These structures are tailored for certain environments and sea depths. Different actions for suitable equipment selection, platform type design, and drilling/production processes are required for the applications of these offshore structures, as given in Part I. This paper is the second part, which outlines various processes, loads, design approaches and project management of offshore platforms. To achieve these, proper planning must be conducted for lifting, transportation, installation, design, fabrication, and commissioning of these offshore platforms. Some historical developments of some offshore structures are presented, and some project planning routines are undertaken in this research. The ultimate goal is to provide a general overview of the many processes of offshore platform design, construction, loadout, transportation, and installation. Some discussions on the design parameters such as water depth and environmental conditions were presented. It also lists various software programs used in engineering designs covering software programs for structural analysis, 3D rendering, computer-aided design (CAD), hydrodynamic design, oceanic flow analysis, offshore structures analysis, mathematical modelling, coding/algorithm development software, and programming software to aid analytical calculations. The review also includes information on cutting-edge offshore platforms and industry advancements. Ultimately, for long-term operations, various types of offshore platforms for specific seawater depths are available

    Methods of symmetry reduction and their application

    Get PDF
    In this thesis methods of symmetry reduction are applied to several physically relevant partial differential equations. The first chapter serves to acquaint the reader with the symmetry methods used in this thesis. In particular the classical method of Lie, an extension of it by Bluman and Cole [1969], known as the nonclassical method, and the direct method of Clarkson and Kruskal [1989] are described. Other known extensions of these methods are outlined, including potential symmetries, introduced by Bluman, Kumei and Reid [1988]. Also described are the tools used in practice to perform the calculations. The remainder of the thesis is split into two parts. In Part One the classical and nonclassical methods are applied to three classes of scalar equation: a generalised Boussinesq equation, a class of third order equations and a class of fourth order equations. Many symmetry reductions and exact solutions are found. In Part Two each of the classical, nonclassical and direct methods are applied to various systems of partial differential equations. These include shallow water wave systems, six representations of the Boussinesq equation and a reaction-diffusion equation written as a system. In Chapters Five and Six both the actual application of these methods and their results is compared and contrasted. In such applications, remarkable phenomena can occur, in both the nonclassical and direct methods. In particular it is shown that the application of the direct method to systems of equations is not as conceptually straightforward as previously thought, and a way of completing the calculations of the nonclassical method via hodograph transformations is introduced. In Chapter Seven it is shown how more symmetry reductions may be found via nonclassical potential symmetries, which are a new extension on the idea of potential symmetries. In the final chapter the relationship between the nonclassical and direct methods is investigated in the light of the previous chapters. The thesis is concluded with some general remarks on its findings and on possible future work
