the bem is applied to the solution of the torsion problem of non-homogeneous anisotropic non-circular prismatic bars. the problem is formulated in terms of the warping function. this formulation leads to a second order partial differential equation with variable coefficients, subjected to a generalized neumann type boundary condition. the problem is solved using the analog equation method (aem)...

In this work, we analyze in detail the problem of piston driven shock waves planar media. Similarity solutions to compressible hydrodynamics equations are developed, for a strong wave, generated by time dependent pressure piston, propagating non-homogeneous medium consisting an ideal gas. Power law temporal and spatial dependency is assumed initial density, respectively. The similarity written ...

In this article, the local fractional Homotopy perturbation method is utilized to solve the non-homogeneous heat conduction equations. The operator is considered in the sense of the local fractional differential operator. Comparative results between non-homogeneous and homogeneous heat conduction equations are presented. The obtained result shows the non-differentiable behavior of heat conducti...

The paper concerns the analysis of the correlations of wave fields propagating in heterogeneous media. We show that selected field-field correlations asymptotically propagate in non-scattering media, i.e., propagate as if the underlying medium was homogeneous. Such correlations are therefore good candidates for imaging strategies in heterogeneous media based on back-propagations in a homogeneou...
