An equation admitting infinite true contact transformations
AbstractThe linear wave equation is shown to possess the unique property that if wn is a true contact transformation admitted by the wave equation, i.e., wn is not linear in the first derivatives of the dependent variable, then so is ânwn. We comment of the physical implications
Symmetry Classification of First Integrals for Scalar Linearizable Second-Order ODEs
Symmetries of the fundamental first integrals for scalar second-order ordinary differential equations (ODEs) which are linear or linearizable by point transformations have already been obtained. Firstly we show how one can determine the relationship between the symmetries and the first integrals of linear or linearizable scalar ODEs of order two. Secondly, a complete classification of point symmetries of first integrals of such linear ODEs is studied. As a consequence, we provide a counting theorem for the point symmetries of first integrals of scalar linearizable second-order ODEs. We show that there exists the 0-, 1-, 2-, or 3-point symmetry cases. It is shown that the maximal algebra case is unique
Analytic Approximate Solutions for MHD Boundary-Layer Viscoelastic Fluid Flow over Continuously Moving Stretching Surface by Homotopy Analysis Method with Two Auxiliary Parameters
In this study, a steady, incompressible, and laminar-free convective flow of a two-dimensional electrically conducting viscoelastic fluid over a moving stretching surface through a porous medium is considered. The boundary-layer equations are derived by considering Boussinesq and boundary-layer approximations. The nonlinear ordinary differential equations for the momentum and energy equations are obtained and solved analytically by using homotopy analysis method (HAM) with two auxiliary parameters for two classes of visco-elastic fluid (Waltersâ liquid B and second-grade fluid). It is clear that by the use of second auxiliary parameter, the straight line region in â-curve increases and the convergence accelerates. This research is performed by considering two different boundary conditions: (a) prescribed surface temperature (PST) and (b) prescribed heat flux (PHF). The effect of involved parameters on velocity and temperature is investigated
Constructing a Space from the System of Geodesic Equations
Given a space it is easy to obtain the system of geodesic equations on it. In
this paper the inverse problem of reconstructing the space from the geodesic
equations is addressed. A procedure is developed for obtaining the metric
tensor from the Christoffel symbols. The procedure is extended for determining
if a second order quadratically semi-linear system can be expressed as a system
of geodesic equations, provided it has terms only quadratic in the first
derivative apart from the second derivative term. A computer code has been
developed for dealing with larger systems of geodesic equations
Study of nonlinear MHD tribological squeeze film at generalized magnetic reynolds numbers using DTM.
In the current article, a combination of the differential transform method (DTM) and Padé approximation method are implemented to solve a system of nonlinear differential equations modelling the flow of a Newtonian magnetic lubricant squeeze film with magnetic induction effects incorporated. Solutions for the transformed radial and tangential momentum as well as solutions for the radial and tangential induced magnetic field conservation equations are determined. The DTM-Padé combined method is observed to demonstrate excellent convergence, stability and versatility in simulating the magnetic squeeze film problem. The effects of involved parameters, i.e. squeeze Reynolds number (N1), dimensionless axial magnetic force strength parameter (N2), dimensionless tangential magnetic force strength parameter (N3), and magnetic Reynolds number (Rem) are illustrated graphically and discussed in detail. Applications of the study include automotive magneto-rheological shock absorbers, novel aircraft landing gear systems and biological prosthetics
Endoscope effects on MHD peristaltic flow of a power-law fluid
To understand the influence of an inserted endoscope and magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) power-law fluid on peristaltic motion, an attempt has been made for flow through tubes. The magnetic field of uniform strength is applied in the transverse direction to the flow. The analysis has been performed under long wavelength at low-Reynolds number assumption. The velocity fields and axial pressure gradient have been evaluated analytically. Numerical results are also presented and discussed
On generalized Carleson operators of periodic wavelet packet expansions
Three new theorems based on the generalized Carleson operators for the periodic Walsh-type wavelet packets have been established. An application of these theorems as convergence a.e. for the periodic Walsh-type wavelet packet expansion of block function with the help of summation by arithmetic means has been studied
Numerical Investigation of the Steady State of a Driven Thin Film Equation
A third-order ordinary differential equation with application in the flow of a thin liquid film is considered. The boundary conditions come from Tanner's problem for the surface tension driven flow of a thin film. Symmetric and nonsymmetric finite difference schemes are implemented in order to obtain steady state solutions. We show that a central difference approximation to the third derivative in the model equation produces a solution curve with oscillations. A difference scheme based on a combination of forward and backward differences produces a smooth accurate solution curve. The stability of these schemes is analysed through the use of a von Neumann stability analysis
Some q-analogues of HermiteâHadamard inequality of functions of two variables on finite rectangles in the plane
Preliminaries of q-calculus for functions of two variables over finite rectangles in the plane are introduced. Some q-analogues of the famous HermiteâHadamard inequality of functions of two variables defined on finite rectangles in the plane are presented. A q1q2-Hölder inequality for functions of two variables over finite rectangles is also established to provide some quantum estimates of trapezoidal type inequality of functions of two variables whose q1q2-partial derivatives in absolute value with certain powers satisfy the criteria of convexity on co-ordinates
