A geometrical inverse heat conduction problem is solved for the infrared scanning cavity detection by the boundary element method using minimal energy technique. By minimizing the kinetic energy of temperature field, boundary element equations are converted to the quadratic programming problem. A hypothetical inner boundary is defined such that the actual cavity is located interior to the domain. Temperatures at hypothetical inner boundary are determined to meet the constraints of mea- surement error of surface temperature obtained by infrared scanning, and then boundary element analysis is peformed for the position of an unknown boundary (cavity). Cavity detection algorithm is provided, and the effects of minimal energy technique on the inverse solution method are investigated by means of numerical analysis.

We consider the multiplicity of the solutions for the elliptic boundary value problem with $C^1$ nonlinear term decaying at the origin. We get a theorem which shows the existence of the nontrivial solution for the elliptic problem with $C^1$ nonlinear term decaying at the origin. We obtain this result by reducing the elliptic problem with the $C^1$ nonlinear term to the el-liptic problem with bounded nonlinear term and then approaching the variational method and using the mountain pass geometry for the reduced the elliptic problem with bounded nonlinear term.

We give a theorem for the existence of at least three solutions for the fourth order elliptic boundary value problem with the square growth variable coefficient nonlinear term. We use the variational reduction method and the critical point theory for the associated functional on the finite dimensional subspace to prove our main result. We investigate the shape of the graph of the associated functional on the finite dimensional subspace, (P.S.) condition and the behavior of the associated functional in the neighborhood of the origin on the finite dimensional reduction subspace.

We consider a distributed optimal flux control problem: finding the potential of which gradient approximates the target vector field under an elliptic constraint. Introducing the Lagrange multiplier and a change of variables the Euler-Lagrange equation turns into a coupled equation of an elliptic equation and a reaction diffusion equation. The change of variables reduces iteration steps dramatically when the Gauss-Seidel iteration is considered as a solution method. For the elliptic equation solver we consider the Cell Boundary Element (CBE) method, which is the finite element type flux preserving methods.

제한된 출력 즉 오차 측정된 출력 값만을 사용하여 원하는 목표치에 도달하도록 하는 제어 문제를 푸는데 많은 연구가 진행되어 왔다. 종종 그러한 제어기를 설계할 때 해를 구하기 어려운 Non Linear Two Point Boundary Value Problem에 직면하게 된다. 특히 Reduced order 추정자 알고리즘은 백색 잡음에 의하여 영향을 받은 선형 시스템의 측정된 상태 뿐 만 아니라 보조 상태를 추정하기 위하여 개발되었다. 추정자를 설계할 때 상태는 무편향성이고 추정자의 편차는 추정자 및 추정상태와 공통되는 상태에 대한 모든 출력의 subspace에 수직이 된다. 특히 reduced order에서의 필터 성능은 full order에서의 필터 성능에 대해 suboptimal 이지만 상응한 Riccati equation을 푸는데 계산시간이 줄고 memory사용이 적은 이점이 있다. 본 논문에서는 Kronecker algebra와 선택행렬을 이용하여 Non Linear Two Point Boundary Value Problem을 Linear Two Point Boundary Value Problem으로 변환시켜 부수적으로 수반되는 대수적인 Riccati equation을 유도함으로써 문제를 쉽게 해결하는데 있다.

The method of Greenwood and Williamson is extended to obtain a solution to the coupled non-linear problem of steady-state electrical and thermal conduction across a crack in a conductive layer, for which the electrical resistivity and thermal conductivity are functions of temperature. The problem can be decomposed into the solution of a pair of non-linear algebraic equations involving boundary values and material properties. The new mixed-boundary value problem given from the thermal and electrical boundary conditions for the crack in the conductive layer is reduced in order to solve a singular integral equation of the first kind, the solution of which can be expressed in terms of the product of a series of the Chebyshev polynomials and their weight function. The non-existence of the solution for an infinite conductor in electrical and thermal conduction is shown. Numerical results are given showing the temperature field around the crack.

A finite element approximation of a fourth-order nonlinear boundary value problem is given. In the direct implementation, a nonlinear system will be obtained and also a full size matrix will be introduced when Newton’s method is adopted to solve the system. To avoid this difficulty we introduce an iterative scheme which can be shown to converge the positive solution of the system lying between 0 and $sin{\pi}x$.

The paper proposes a practical meshless method for the free vibration analysis of clamped plates having arbitrary shapes by extending the non-dimensional dynamic influence function (NDIF) method, which was developed by the author in 1999. In the proposed method, the domain and boundary of the plate of interest are discretized using only nodes without elements unlike FEM and the system matrices are obtained by making domain nodes and boundary nodes satisfy the governing differential equation and boundary conditions, respectively. However, since the above system matrices are not square ones, the problem of free vibrations of clamped plates is not reduced to an algebraic eigenvalue problem. An additional theoretical treatment is considered to produce an algebraic eigenvalue problem. It is revealed from case studies that the proposed method is valid and accurate.

This paper presents a boundary element application to determine the optimal impressed current densities at defect position on the pipe line. In this protection paint, enough current must be impressed to lower the potential distribution on the metal surface to the critical values. The optimal impressed current densities are determined in order to minimize the power supply for protection. This inverse problem was formulated by employing the boundary element method. Since the system of linear equations obtained was ill-conditioned, including singular value decomposition, conjugate gradient method were applied and the accuracies of these estimation. Several numerical examples are presented to demonstrate the practical applicability of the proposed method.

This paper presents Galerkin- and Upwind-finite element analyses solution in the travelling magnetic filed problem. The travelling magnetic field problem is subject to convective- diffusion equation. Therefore, the solution derived from Galerkin-FEM with linear interpolation function may oscillate between the adjacent nodes. A simple model with Derichlet, Noumann and periodic boundary condition respectively, have been analyzed to investigate stabilities of solutions. It is concluded that the solution of Galerkin-FEM may oscillate according to boundary condition and element type, but that of Upwind-FEM is stable regardless boundary condition.
