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 ...

‎in this paper‎, ‎we consider an inverse boundary value problem for two-dimensional heat equation in an annular domain‎. ‎this problem consists of determining the temperature on the interior boundary curve from the cauchy data (boundary temperature and heat flux) on the exterior boundary curve‎. ‎to this end‎, ‎the boundary integral equation method is used‎. ‎since the resulting system of linea...

in this paper we study a two-phase free boundary problem for a semilinear elliptic equation on a bounded domain $dsubset mathbb{r}^{n}$ with smooth boundary‎. ‎we give some results on the growth of solutions and characterize the free boundary points in terms of homogeneous harmonic polynomials using a fundamental result of caffarelli and friedman regarding the representation of functions whose ...

This paper is concerned with a modification of the classical formulation of the free boundary problem for the optimal stopping of integral functionals in nonregular one-dimensional diffusions. This modification was introduced in a recent paper of Rüschendorf and Urusov (2007). As main result of that paper a verification theorem was established. Solutions of the modified free boundary problem im...
