چکیده

We present a method for solving the two-dimensional equation of transfer. The method can be extended easily to the general linear transport problem. The used technique allows us to reduce the two-dimensional equation to a system of one-dimensional equations. The idea of using the spectral method for searching for solutions to the multidimensional transport problems leads us to a solution for all values of the independant variables, the proposed method reduces the solution of the multidimensional problems into a set of one-dimensional ones that have well-established deterministic solutions. The procedure is based on the development of the angular flux in truncated series of Chebyshev polynomials which will permit us to transform the two-dimensional problem into a set of one-dimensional problems.

Multiple solutions of a nonlinear reactive transport model using least square pseudo-spectral collocation method

The recognition and the calculation of all branches of solutions of the nonlinear boundary value problems is difficult obviously. The complexity of this issue goes back to the being nonlinearity of the problem. Regarding this matter, this paper considers steady state reactive transport model which does not have exact closed-form solution and discovers existence of dual or triple solutions in so...

Analytical solutions have been obtained for both conservative and non-conservative forms of one-dimensional transport and transport-dispersion equations applicable for pollution as a result of a non-conservative pollutant-disposal in an open channel with linear spatially varying transport velocity and nonlinear spatially varying dispersion coefficient on account of a steady unpolluted lateral i...

Nonlinear Finite Element Analysis of Bending of Straight Beams Using hp-Spectral Approximations

Displacement finite element models of various beam theories have been developed using traditional finite element interpolations (i.e., Hermite cubic or equi-spaced Lagrange functions). Various finite element models of beams differ from each other in the choice of the interpolation functions used for the transverse deflection w, total rotation φ and/or shear strain γxz, or in the integral form u...

Analytical Approaches for Solving Neutron Transport Problems

The exact solutions for stationary and non-stationary neutron transport equations corresponding to various source functions are presented. The semi-infinite medium is considered to have a specular-reflecting boundary with angular dependent externally-incident flux. Some adjustments were made to agree the neutron transport theory with astrophysical applications.
