The methods solving the 2nd order linear ordinary differential equations of the form y"+H(x)y'+G(x)y=P(x) using Fourier series are presented in this paper. These methods are applied to the differential equations of which the exact solutions are known, and the solutions by Fourier series are compared with the exact solutions. The main results obtained in these studies are summarized as follows; 1) The product and the quotient of two functions expressed in Fourier series can be expressed also in Fourier series and the relations between the Fourier coefficients of the series are obtained by multiplying term by term. 2) If the solution of the 2nd order lindar ordinary differential equation exists in a certain interval, the solution can be obtained using Fourier series and can be expressed in Fourier series. 3) The absolute errors of Fourier series solutions are generally less in the center of the interval than in the end of the interval. 4) The more terms are considered in Fourier series solutions, the less the absolute errors.rors.

In this article, we find the approximate solutions of Abel differential equation (ADE) with uncertainty using residual power series (RPS) method. This method helps to calculate the sequence of solutions of ADE. Finally, numerical illustrations demonstrate the applicability of the method.

The spatially coupled buckling, in-plane, and lateral bucking analyses of thin-walled Timoshenko curved beam with non-symmetric, double-, and mono-symmetric cross-sections resting on elastic foundation are performed based on series solutions. The stiffness matrices are derived rigorously using the homogeneous form of the simultaneous ordinary differential equations. The present beam formulation includes the mechanical characteristics such as the non-symmetric cross-section, the thickness-curvature effect, the shear effects due to bending and restrained warping, the second-order terms of semitangential rotation, the Wagner effect, and the foundation effects. The equilibrium equations and force-deformation relationships are derived from the energy principle and expressions for displacement parameters are derived based on power series expansions of displacement components. Finally the element stiffness matrix is determined using force-deformation relationships. In order to verify the accuracy and validity of this study, the numerical solutions by the proposed method are presented and compared with the finite element solutions using the classical isoparametric curved beam elements and other researchers' analytical solutions.

Analytical solutions to problems are crucial because they provide high-quality comparison data for assessing the accuracy of numerical solutions. Benchmark analytical solutions for the vibrations of cracked functionally graded material (FGM) plates are not available in the literature because of the high level of complexity of such solutions. On the basis of first-order shear deformation plate theory (FSDT), this study proposes analytical series solutions for the vibrations of FGM rectangular plates with side or internal cracks parallel to an edge of the plates by using Fourier cosine series and the domain decomposition technique. The distributions of FGM properties along the thickness direction are assumed to follow a simple power law. The proposed analytical series solutions are validated by performing comprehensive convergence studies on the vibration frequencies of cracked square plates with various crack lengths and under various boundary condition combinations and by performing comparisons with published results based on various plate theories and the theory of three-dimensional elasticity. The results reveal that the proposed solutions are in excellent agreement with literature results obtained using the Ritz method on the basis of FSDT. The paper also presents tabulations of the first six nondimensional frequencies of cracked rectangular Al/Al2O3 FGM plates with various aspect ratios, thickness-to-width ratios, crack lengths, and FGM power law indices under six boundary condition combinations, the tabulated frequencies can serve as benchmark data for assessing the accuracy of numerical approaches based on FSDT.

The purpose of this paper is to employ a new useful technique to solve the initial-Neumann boundary value problems for parabolic, hyperbolic and parabolic-hyperbolic equations and obtain a solution in form of infinite series. The results obtained indicate that this approach is indeed practical and efficient.

To help solving intractable nonlinear evolution equations (NLEEs) of waves in the field of fluid dynamics we develop an algorithm to find new high order solutions of the class of Abel, Bernoulli, Chini and Riccati equations of the form y' = ayⁿ + by + c, n > 1, with constant coefficients a, b, c. The role of this class of equations in NLEEs is explained in the introduction below. The basic algorithm to compute the coefficients of the power series solutions of the class, emerged long ago and is further developed in this paper. Practical application for hitherto unknown solutions is exemplified.

The redundancy allocation problem (RAP) is a famous NP.complete problem that has beenstudied in the system reliability area of ships and airplanes. Recently meta-heuristic techniques have been applied in this topic, for example, genetic algorithms, simulated annealing and tabu search. In particular, tabu search (TS) has emerged as an efficient algorithmic approach for the series-parallel RAP. However, the quality of solutions found by TS depends on the initial solution. As a robust and efficient methodology for the series-parallel RAP, the hybrid metaheuristic (TSA) that is a interactive procedure between the TS and SA (simulated annealing) is developed in this paper. In the proposed algorithm, SA is used to find the diversified promising solutions so that TS can re-intensify search for the solutions obtained by the SA. We test the proposed TSA by the existing problems and compare it with the SA and TS algorithm. Computational results show that the TSA algorithm finds the global optimal solutions for all cases and outperforms the existing TS and SA in cases of 42 and 56 subsystems.

본 연구에서는, 바닥의 수심이 반경의 임의 차수의 제곱 꼴로 표현되는 다양한 형태의 축 대칭 지형 위를 통과하는 장파의 해석해를 유도하였다. 첫 번째 지형은 둔덕 위에 원기둥 모양의 섬이 있는 경우이며 두 번째는 원형의 섬이 있는 경우이다. 해를 구하기 위하여 변수 분리법, Taylor 급수전개법 및 Frobenius 급수법을 사용하였다. 유도된 해석해를 기존에 유도된 해석해와 비교를 하여 그 정확성을 검증 하였다. 또한, 입사파의 주기, 둔덕의 반지름 및 차수를 가지는 경우에 대하여 분석하였다.

The present paper will be concerned to the investigation of the stress-strain field around the cavity that is loaded or partially loaded at the inner surface by the rotationally symmetric loading. The cavity of the spherical, cylindrical or elliptical shape is situated in a stressed elastic continuum, subjected to the gravitation field. As the contribution to the similar investigations, the paper introduces the new function of loading in the form of the infinite sine series. Besides, in this paper the solution of stresses around an oblong ellipsoid cavity, has been obtained using appropriate curvilinear elliptical coordinates. This analytical approach avoids the solutions of the same problem that lead to expressions that contain rather complex integrations. Thus the presented solutions provide the applicable and explicit expressions for stresses and strains developed in infinite series with easily determinable coefficients by the use of contemporary mathematical packages. The numerical examples are also included to confirm the convergence of the obtained solutions.

The heat diffusion equation for an annular fin is analyzed using Laplace transformations. The fin has a uniform thickness with its edge heat loss and two temperature profiles at the base such as a step change in temperature or heat flux. To obtain the exact solutions for temperature distribution, this paper can detect the eigenvalues which satisfy the roots of transcendental equations in above two cases during inverse Laplace transformations. The exact solutions for temperature and heat flux are obtained with the infinite Series by dimensionless factors. The solutions are developed for small and large values of times. These series solutions converge rapidly for large values of time, but slowly for small.
