Abstract

Fourier series multiscale method, a concise and efficient analytical approach for multiscale computation, will be developed out of this series of papers. In the sixth paper, exact analysis of the wave propagation in a beam with rectangular cross section is extended to a thorough multiscale analysis for a system of completely coupled second order linear differential equations for modal functions, where general boundary conditions are prescribed. For this purpose, the modal function each is expressed as a linear combination of the corner function, the two boundary functions and the internal function, to ensure the series expressions obtained uniformly convergent and termwise differentiable up to second order. Meanwhile, the sum of the corner function and the internal function corresponds to the particular solution, and the two boundary functions correspond to the general solutions which satisfy the homogeneous form of the equations. Since the general solutions have appropriately interpreted the meaning of the differential equations, the spatial characteristics of the solution of the equations are expected to be better captured in separate directions. With the corner function, the two boundary functions and the internal function selected specifically as polynomials, one-dimensional full-range Fourier series along the x2 (or x1)-direction, and two-dimensional full-range Fourier series, the Fourier series multiscale solution of the wave propagation in a beam with rectangular cross section is derived. For the beam with various boundary conditions, computation and analysis are performed, and the propagation characteristics of elastic waves in the beam are presented. The newly proposed accurate wave model has laid a solid foundation for simultaneous control of coupled waves in the beam and establishment of guided wave NDE techniques.

Fully spectral scheme for the linear BGK equation on the whole space

In this article, we design a fully spectral method in both space and velocity for a linear inhomogeneous kinetic equation with mass, momentum and energy conservation. We focus on the linear BGK equation with a confinement potential $Φ$, even if the method could be applied to different collision operators. It is based upon the projection on Hermite polynomials in velocity and orthonormal polynomials with respect to the weight $e^{-$Φ$}$ in space. The potential $Φ$ is assumed to be a polynomial. It is, to the author's knowledge, the first scheme which preserves hypocoercive behavior in addition to the conservation laws. These different properties are illustrated numerically on both quadratic and double well potential.

Inverse inequalities for kernel-based approximation on bounded domains and Riemannian manifolds

This paper establishes inverse inequalities for kernel-based approximation spaces defined on bounded Lipschitz domains in $\mathbb{R}^d$ and compact Riemannian manifolds. While inverse inequalities are well-studied for polynomial spaces, their extension to kernel-based trial spaces poses significant challenges. For bounded Lipschitz domains, we extend prior Bernstein inequalities, which only apply to a limited range of Sobolev orders, to the full range of lower and upper orders, and derive Nikolskii inequalities that bound $L_\infty$ norms by $L_2$ norms. For compact Riemannian manifolds, we focus on restricted kernels, which are defined as the restriction of positive definite kernels from the ambient Euclidean space to the manifold, and prove their counterparts.

Error Estimates for Hyperbolic Scaling Limits of Linear Kinetic Models on Networks

This paper studies linear discrete kinetic models on networks and their asymptotic behavior in the small Knudsen number limit. For coupling conditions at an n-edge junction under a symmetric formulation, we introduce a change of variables that reformulates the system into n independent initial-boundary value problems. The asymptotic expansions are then constructed and rigorously justified by deriving an error estimate based on the energy method.
