Approximate Analytical Solution of a Nonlinear Boundary Value Problem and its Application in Fluid Mechanics
نویسنده
چکیده
Although the decomposition method and its modified form were used during the last two decades by many authors to investigate various scientific models, a little attention was devoted for their applications in the field of fluid mechanics. In this paper, the Adomian decomposition method (ADM) is implemented for solving the nonlinear partial differential equation (PDE) describing the peristaltic flow of a power-law fluid in a circular cylindrical tube under the effect of a magnetic field. The numerical solutions obtained in this paper show the effectiveness of Adomian’s method over the perturbation technique.

متن کاملThermo-mechanical nonlinear vibration analysis of fluid-conveying structures subjected to different boundary conditions using Galerkin-Newton-Harmonic balancing method
The development of mathematical models for describing the dynamic behaviours of fluid conveying pipes, micro-pipes and nanotubes under the influence of some thermo-mechanical parameters results into nonlinear equations that are very difficult to solve analytically. In cases where the exact analytical solutions are presented either in implicit or explicit forms, high skills and rigorous mathemat...

متن کاملOn Approximate Stationary Radial Solutions for a Class of Boundary Value Problems Arising in Epitaxial Growth Theory
In this paper, we consider a non-self-adjoint, singular, nonlinear fourth order boundary value problem which arises in the theory of epitaxial growth. It is possible to reduce the fourth order equation to a singular boundary value problem of second order given by w''-1/r w'=w^2/(2r^2 )+1/2 λ r^2. The problem depends on the parameter λ and admits multiple solutions. Therefore, it is difficult to...
