Abstract This paper first attempts to solve the transient heat conduction problem by combining the recently proposed local knot method (LKM) with the dual reciprocity method (DRM). Firstly, the temporal derivative is discretized by a finite difference scheme, and thus the governing equation of transient heat transfer is transformed into a non-homogeneous modified Helmholtz equation. Secondly, the solution of the non-homogeneous modified Helmholtz equation is decomposed into a particular solution and a homogeneous solution. And then, the DRM and LKM are used to solve the particular solution of the non-homogeneous equation and the homogeneous solution of the modified Helmholtz equation, respectively.… More >

Abstract This study explored the mechanism on how volunteers as rationalists use rationalism during their cognitive appraisal process when dealing with emotional events in their social helping behavior such as international rescue events. The authors used the triangulation method to include three studies (Study 1 is a qualitative research which explored ways of TCF leader’s inspiring their volunteer workers; Study 2 is a quantitative research on the decision-making process of volunteer individuals involving in international rescue activities; Study 3 is a quantitative research on individuals’ motivation for joining social helping behavior) for validation of Tzu Chi Foundation (TCF), which is a… More >

Abstract To secure the wireless connection between devices with low computational power has been a challenging problem due to heterogeneity in operating devices, device to device communication in Internet of Things (IoTs) and 5G wireless systems. Physical layer key generation (PLKG) tackles this secrecy problem by introducing private keys among two connecting devices through wireless medium. In this paper, relative calibration is used as a method to enhance channel reciprocity which in turn increases the performance of the key generation process. Channel reciprocity based key generation is emerged as better PLKG methodology to obtain secure wireless connection in IoTs and 5G… More >

Abstract A dual reciprocity based boundary element approach for the analysis of magneto-electric laminates free vibration behavior is presented. The problem is formulated employing generalized displacements, that is displacements and electric and magnetic scalar potentials, and the corresponding generalized tractions. The generalized boundary integral representation is deduced by extending the reciprocity theorem to magneto-electro-elasticity problem and the multidomain boundary element technique is used to model multilayer structures. The magneto-electro-elastic static fundamental solutions are used jointly with the dual reciprocity method to transform the inertia domain integral into a boundary integral. Numerical results are presented focusing on the effects of the electro-magnetic… More >

Abstract The conventional boundary element method (BEM) uses internal cells for the domain integralsCwhen solving nonlinear problems or problems with domain effects. This paper is concerned with conversion of the domain integral into boundary ones and some non-integral terms in a three-dimensional BIEM, which does not require the use of internal cells. This method uses arbitrary internal points instead of internal cells. The method is based on a three-dimensional interpolation method in this paper by using a polyharmonic function with volume distribution. In view of this interpolation method, the three-dimensional numerical integration is replaced by boundary ones and preceding calculation of… More >

Abstract In this paper, we will propose a new concept, namely the Complete Solid Buckling Analysis, in which the deformation assumptions for rods, beams and plates are all discarded, and the entire structure, including all its local smallsized features, is modeled as a three-dimensional (3D) solid according to its real shape and dimensions. Firstly, we derive a new control equation, in which physical variables in three directions are considered. Then, an equivalent Boundary Integral Equation (BIE) is derived from the control equation. In the numerical implementation, the Boundary Face Method is employed, by which analyses can be performed directly on the… More >

Abstract In this work, the harmonic analysis of shallow shells using the Boundary Element Method, is presented. The proposed boundary element formulation is based on a direct time-domain integration using the elastostatic fundamental solutions for both in-plane elasticity and shear deformable plates. Shallow shell was modeled coupling boundary element formulation of shear deformable plate and two-dimensional plane stress elasticity. Effects of shear deformation and rotatory inertia were included in the formulation. Domain integrals related to inertial terms were treated using the Dual Reciprocity Boundary Element Method. Numerical examples are presented to demonstrate the efficiency and accuracy of the proposed formulation. More >

Abstract Here is presented a formal deduction for the Dual Reciprocity hypersingular boundary integral equation for application to two dimensional potential problems. The theoretical and numerical derivations are presented in detail, and some simple test problems are included to verify the accuracy of the proposed formulation. Due to its simplicity, Poisson’s Equation is used as a basis for the mathematical formulations and operational procedures related to the body force term, but the methodology can easily be extended to other more elaborate classes of potential problems. Poles are inserted internally to improve the interpolation within the domain, resulting in a hybrid singular… More >

Abstract The paper presents a new meshless numerical technique for solving nonlinear Poisson-type equation ∇²u = f (x) + F(u,x) for x ∈ R^d, d =1,2,3. We assume that the nonlinear term can be represented as a linear combination of basis functions F(u,x) = ∑_m^Mq_mφ_m. We use the basis functions φ_m of three types: the the monomials, the trigonometric functions and the multiquadric radial basis functions. For basis functions φ_m of each kind there exist particular solutions of the equation ∇²ϕ_m = φ_m in an analytic form. This permits to write the approximate solution in the form u_M = u_f… More >
