In this paper, we investigate the application of the Method of Fundamental Solutions (MFS) to two classes of axisymmetric potential problems. In the ΓΏrst, the boundary conditions as well as the domain of the problem, are axisymmetric, and in the second, the boundary conditions are arbitrary. In both

β¦ Synopsis
In this paper, we investigate the application of the Method of Fundamental Solutions (MFS) to twodimensional problems of steady-state heat conduction in isotropic and anisotropic bimaterials. Two approaches are used: a domain decomposition technique and a single-domain approach in which modiΓΏed fundamental solutions are employed. The modiΓΏed fundamental solutions satisfy the interface continuity conditions automatically for planar interfaces. The two approaches are tested and compared on several test problems and their relative merits and disadvantages discussed. Finally, we use the domain decomposition approach to investigate bimaterial problems where the interface is non-planar and the modiΓΏed fundamental solutions cannot be used.

The Laplace transform is applied to remove the time-dependent variable in the di usion equation. For nonharmonic initial conditions this gives rise to a non-homogeneous modiΓΏed Helmholtz equation which we solve by the method of fundamental solutions. To do this a particular solution must be obtained
A new method of solving multidimensional heat conduction problems is formulated. The developed space marching method allows to determine quickly and exactly unsteady temperature distributions in the construction elements of irregular geometry. The method which is based on temperature measurements at
In this article, we combine finite difference approximations (for spatial derivatives) and collocation techniques (for the time component) to numerically solve the two-dimensional heat equation. We employ, respectively, second-order and fourth-order schemes for the spatial derivatives, and the discr
