Boundary integral equations (BIE) are reformulations of boundary value problems for partial differential equations. There is a plethora of research on numerical methods for all types of these equations such as solving by discretization which includes numerical integration. In this paper, the Neumann problem is reformulated to a BIE, and then moving least squares as a meshless method is describe...

This paper focuses on a hydraulic radius separation approach used to calculate the boundary shear stress in terms of bed and wall shear stress proposed in a trapezoidal channel. The average bed and sidewall shear stress in smooth trapezoidal open channels are derived after using Guo & Julien (2005) early equations taking a part of an investigation to cover both rectangular and trapezoidal chann...

in this paper, the maximal dissipative extensions of a symmetric singular 1d discrete hamiltonian operator with maximal deficiency indices (2,2) (in limit-circle cases at ±∞) and acting in the hilbert space ℓ_{ω}²(z;c²) (z:={0,±1,±2,...}) are considered. we consider two classes dissipative operators with separated boundary conditions both at -∞ and ∞. for each of these cases we establish a self...

We consider some geometric aspects of regular Sturm-Liouville problems. First, we clarify a natural geometric structure on the space of boundary conditions. This structure is the base for studying the dependence of Sturm-Liouville eigenvalues on the boundary condition, and reveals many new properties of these eigenvalues. In particular, the eigenvalues for separated boundary conditions and thos...

complete bicornuate uterus is a type of mullerian duct deformity, resulting from abnormal duct fusion. similar to other mullerian anomalies, bicornuate uterus is associated with specific complications during possible pregnancies. while various studies have reported successful deliveries in a bicornuate uterus, it might be accompanied with various complications, ranging from preterm labor to mor...

Let L = ∆+Z for a C1 vector field Z on a complete Riemannian manifold possibly with a boundary. By using the uniform distance, a number of transportation-cost inequalities on the path space for the (reflecting) L-diffusion process are proved to be equivalent to the curvature condition Ric−∇Z ≥ −K and the convexity of the boundary (if exists). These inequalities are new even for manifolds withou...
