In this paper, Newton-multigrid scheme on adaptive finite element discretisation is employed for solving elliptic quasi-variational inequalities with nonlinear source terms. We use Newton’s method as the outer iteration standard linearization, and using multigrid inner solution of Jacobian system at each step. The uniform convergence methods shown in sense that have a contraction number respect...

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 develop an a-posteriori KAM theory for the equilibrium equations for quasi-periodic solutions in a quasi-periodic Frenkel-Kontorova model when the frequency of the solutions resonates with the frequencies of the substratum. The KAM theory we develop is very different both in the methods and in the conclusions from the more customary KAM theory for Hamiltonian systems or from the KAM theory i...

The paper presents an overview of linearization methods of the non-linear state equation. The linearization is developed from the point of view of the application in the theoretical electrotechnics. Some aspects of these considerations can be used in the control theory. In particular the main emphasis is laid on three methods of linearization, i.e.: Taylor’s series expansion, optimal linearizat...

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.

We investigate entropy generation in unsteady three-dimensional axisymmetric MHD nanofluid flow over a non-linearly stretching sheet. The flow is subject to thermal radiation and a chemical reaction. The conservation equations were solved using the spectral quasi-linearization method. The novelty of the work is in the study of entropy generation in three-dimensional axisymmetric MHD nanofluid a...
