Free Boundary Problems

چکیده
Paradigmatic examples are the classical Stefan problem and more general models of phase transitions, where the free boundary is the moving interface between phases. Other examples come from problems in surface science, plastic molding and glass rolling, filtration through porous media, where free boundaries occur as fronts between saturated and unsaturated regions, and others from reaction-diffusion, fluid dynamics, mathematical finance, biology, and water wave theory.

Numerical Solution of a Free Boundary Problem from Heat Transfer by the Second Kind Chebyshev Wavelets
In this paper we reduce a free boundary problem from heat transfer to a weakly Singular Volterra integral equation of the first kind. Since the first kind integral equation is ill posed, and an appropriate method for such ill posed problems is based on wavelets, then we apply the Chebyshev wavelets to solve the integral equation. Numerical implementation of the method is illustrated by two ben...
متن کاملVariational Iteration Method for Free Vibration Analysis of a Timoshenko Beam under Various Boundary Conditions
In this paper, a relatively new method, namely variational iteration method (VIM), is developed for free vibration analysis of a Timoshenko beam with different boundary conditions. In the VIM, an appropriate Lagrange multiplier is first chosen according to order of the governing differential equation of the boundary value problem, and then an iteration process is used till the desired accuracy ...

متن کاملA Similarity Approach to the Numerical Solution of Free Boundary Problems
The aim of this work is to point out that within a similarity approach some classes of free boundary value problems governed by ordinary differential equations can be transformed to initial value problems. The interest in the numerical solution of free boundary problems arises because these are always nonlinear problems. Furthermore we show that free boundary problems arise also via a similarit...
