The analysis of flows with free boundaries is a non-linear problem, since their forms are not known in advance and must be found. described method effective for various problems dynamic conditions on boundaries. This iterative based the quasi-linearization boundary velocity potential proposed by A.N. Ivanov 1962. iterations include successive solutions Fredholm integral equations second kind (a...

The main objective of the present study is to utilize a novel linearization strategy to linearize the convection terms of the quasi-one-dimensional Euler governing equations on collocated grids and to examine its shock-capturing capabilities. To avoid a pressure checkerboard problem on the collocated grids, it is necessary to utilize two velocity definitions at each cell face. Similarly, we def...

We provide a rigorous justification of the classical linearization approach in plasticity. By taking the small-deformations limit, we prove via Γ-convergence for rate-independent processes that energetic solutions of the quasi-static finite-strain elastoplasticity system converge to the unique strong solution of linearized elastoplasticity.

We prove the classification of joinings for maximal horospherical subgroups acting on homogeneous spaces without any restriction on the characteristic. Using the linearization technique we deduce a special case of Raghunathan’s orbit closure conjecture. In the appendix quasi-isometries of higher rank lattices in semisimple algebraic groups over fields of positive characteristic are characterized.

A suboptimal approach to distributed NMPC for a class of systems consisting of nonlinear subsystems with linearly coupled dynamics subject to both state and input constraints is proposed. The approach applies a dual decomposition method to represent the original centralized NMPC problem into a distributed quasi-NMPC problem by linearization of the nonlinear system dynamics and taking into accou...

The purpose of this study is to develop a new approach in modeling and simulation of a reverse osmosis desalination system by using fractional differential equations. Using the Legendre wavelet method combined with the decoupling and quasi-linearization technique, we demonstrate the validity and applicability of our model. Examples are developed to illustrate the fractional differential techniq...
