The well-known Vlasov-Poisson equation describes plasma physics as nonlinear first-order partial differential equations. Because of the nonlinear condition from the self consistency of the Vlasov-Poisson equation, many problems occur: the existence, the numerical solution, the convergence of the numerical solution, and so on. To solve the problems, a viscosity term (a second-order partial differential equation) is added. In a viscosity term, the Vlasov-Poisson equation changes into a parabolic equation like the Fokker-Planck equation. Therefore, the Schauder fixed point theorem and the classical results on parabolic equations can be used for analyzing the Vlasov-Poisson equation. The sequence and the convergence results are obtained from linearizing the Vlasove-Poisson equation by using a fixed point theorem and Gronwall's inequality. In numerical experiments, an implicit first-order scheme is used. The numerical results are tested using the changed viscosity terms.

A new scheme for solving the Vlasov equation using a compactly supported wavelets basis is proposed. We use a numerical method which minimizes the numerical diffusion and conserves a reasonable time computing cost. So we introduce a representation in a compactly supported wavelet of the derivative operator. This method makes easy and simple the computation of the coefficients of the matrix representing the operator. This allows us to solve the two equations which result from the splitting technique of the main Vlasov equation. Some numerical results are exposed using different numbers of wavelets.

We study the existence of weak solution for the stationary Nordstr$\ddot{o}$m-Vlasov equations in a bounded domain. The proof follows by fixed point method. The asymptotic behavior for large light speed is analyzed as well. We justify the convergence towards the stationary Vlasov-Poisson model for stellar dynamics.

In this paper, the relativistic Vlasov-Klein-Gordon system in one dimension is investigated. This non-linear dynamics system consists of a transport equation for the distribution function combined with Klein-Gordon equation. Without any assumption of continuity or compact support of any initial particle density $f_0$, we prove the existence and uniqueness of the mild solution via the iteration method.

This paper is concerned with global existence of weak solutions to the relativistic Vlasov-Klein-Gordon system. The energy of this system is conserved, but the interaction term ${\int}_{{\mathbb{R}}^n}\;{\rho}{\varphi}dx$ in it need not be positive. So far existence of global weak solutions has been established only for small initial data [9, 14]. In two dimensions, this paper shows that the interaction term can be estimated by the kinetic energy to the power of ${\frac{4q-4}{3q-2}}$ for 1 < q < 2. As a consequence, global existence of weak solutions for general initial data is obtained.

For analysis of the plates and membranes by numerical or analytical methods, the question of choice of the system of functions satisfying the different boundary conditions remains a major challenge to address. It is to this issue that is dedicated this work based on an approach of choice of combinations of trigonometric functions, which are shape functions of a bended beam with the boundary conditions corresponding to the plate support mode. To do this, the shape functions of beam vibrations for strength analysis of the rectangular plates by Kantorovich-Vlasov's method is considered. Using the properties of quasi-orthogonality of those functions allowed assessing to differential equation for every member of the series. Therefore it's proposed some new forms of integration of the beam functions, in order to simplify the problem.

Modern ultra-large container carriers can be exposed to the unprecedented springing excitation from ocean waves due to their relatively low torsional rigidity. Large deck opening on the deck of container carriers tends to cause warping distortion of hull structure under wave-induced excitation, eventually leading to the higher chance of resonance vibration between its torsional response and incoming waves. To handle this problem, a higher-order B-spline Rankine panel method and Vlasov-beam FE model was directly coupled in the time domain, and the coupled equation was solved by using an implicit iterative method. In order to capture the complicated behavior of thin-walled open section girder, a sophisticated beam-based finite element model was developed, which takes into account warping distortion and shear-on-wall effect. Then, the developed beam model was directly coupled with the time-domain Rankine panel method for hydrodynamic problem by using the fixed-point iteration method. The developed computational scheme was validated through the comparison with the frequency-domain solution on the container carrier model in linear springing regime.

The primary objective of this study is to compare the effects that are caused by shrinkage and creep of a concrete bridge deck during its construction. In this study four different bridge structures were compared. Two straight box girders and two curved box girders were compared for stress changes in positive moment region and negative moment region due to the effects of concrete. The effects on displacement behavior by the assumed section length by concrete placement were also studied. The analyses were performed by using Vlasov equation and finite difference numerical method to solve the governing differential equation.

The aim of this research is to analyze buckling and bending behavior of a sandwich Reddy beam with porous core and composite face sheets reinforced by boron nitride nanotubes (BNNTs) and shape memory alloy (SMA) wires resting on Vlasov's foundation. To this end, first, displacement field's equations are written based on the higher-order shear deformation theory (HSDT). And also, to model the SMA wire properties, constitutive equation of Brinson is used. Then, by utilizing the principle of minimum potential energy, the governing equations are derived and also, Navier's analytical solution is applied to solve the governing equations of the sandwich beam. The effect of some important parameters such as SMA temperature, the volume fraction of SMA, the coefficient of porosity, different patterns of BNNTs and porous distributions on the behavior of buckling and bending of the sandwich beam are investigated. The obtained results show that when SMA wires are in martensite phase, the maximum deflection of the sandwich beam decreases and the critical buckling load increases significantly. Furthermore, the porosity coefficient plays an important role in the maximum deflection and the critical buckling load. It is concluded that increasing porosity coefficient, regardless of porous distribution, leads to an increase in the critical buckling load and a decrease in the maximum deflection of the sandwich beam.

A systematric method of exploring the 'geometrical' and 'non-geometrical' constants of the motion for an arbitrary spacetime is presented. This is done by introducing a series of coupled differential equation for the generators of the symmetry group of Vlasov's equation. The method is applied to the case of the maximaly symmetric spectime, and the geometrical and non-geometrical constants of motion are obtained.
