    Notes: This paper deals with the solution of the one-dimensional advection-diffusion equation. The method of solution is based on the process-splitting technique. The transport equation is split up into the advection part and the diffusion part at every time step. The advection transport equation is solved by a method of characteristics using a spline function for interpolation. This solution approach proves to be very effective because it reduces numerical dispersion and wiggles. The diffusion equation is solved by the standard Galerkin finite-element method. A comparison of calculations with the results of Holly and Preissmann and with analytical solutions demonstrates the great accuracy of the proposed method.

    Notes: A 12-DOF quadrilateral element for plate bending is formulated based on the concept of generalized compatibility and semi-Loof constraints. The element DOFs are defined with the conventional displacements at corner nodes and the semi-Loof constraints are used in the formulation. This element is a generalized conforming one which passes Irons' patch test and can be used to solve problems with complicated boundaries. When overall considerations of simplicity, accuracy and reliability are taken into account, this new element is one of the best 12-DOF quadrilateral plate-bending elements currently available.

    Notes: The classical Gauss-Laguerre quadrature rule for the semi-infinite integration interval [0,∞] is modified and applied to the case of the weight function exp(-x)/x corresponding to finite-part (or, equivalently, hypersingular) integrals. The new set of orthogonal polynomials is constructed and it is seen to consist of linear combinations of the classical Laguerre polynomials with appropriately determined coefficients. The zeros of these modified Laguerre polynomials are seen to be distinct, but one of these lies outside the integration interval. Formulae for the corresponding weights are also given and numerical values and results are presented. The present results generalize the corresponding results for the finite interval [0,1] to semi-infinite intervals and they are applicable to a variety of applied mechanics and related problems, where finite-part integrals appear in a natural way.

    Notes: The virtual contact loading method (VCLM), a highly efficient numerical method to solve elastic contact problems, is proposed in this paper. Having applied virtual loads on the possible contact region (PCR) of a structure system, we carried out the usual finite-element calculations only once and made a local iteration analysis in PCR then the contact region (shape and size), contact state (stick, slide or mixed), contact normal and shear stress distributions, and the stress and displacement fields in contact bodies were all obtained simultaneously. This method is very simple and easy to use.The elastic contact problems for cylinder-cylinder are solved in this paper and the results agree well with those in previous work.

    Notes: In this paper a new method has been presented to determine the optimum number of knots for cubic splines. The knot-finding process is based on the numerical integration of the input curve. The number and the location of the knots is determined automatically. The method has been applied to a test case and the performance has been compared with two other existing methods. It is shown that fewer knots are retained for the portions of the curve having small curvature whereas a larger number of knots is retained for highly curved portions. The computer time required by our method depends only upon the number of points in the input curve and does not depend upon the shape of the curve or the desired accuracy.

    Notes: The radiation boundary condition is frequently used at the artificial outflow boundary created in the numerical computation of fluid flow problems to allow outgoing waves to leave the domain undisturbed. However, the numerical approximation of the radiation boundary condition will produce errors which will affect the interior solution. In this work the errors due to two different numerical approximations of the radiation boundary condition are studied, with the one-dimensional wave equation being used as the model equation. A theoretical analysis shows that: (a) if the numerical approximation of the boundary condition generates a celerity error, a reflected wave with amplitude proportional to the size of the celerity error is produced; (b) if the numerical approximation of the boundary condition generates a numerical diffusion and hence an amplitude damping error, a reflected wave with amplitude proportional to the magnitude of the numerical diffusion is produced. A modification of the Sommerfeld radiation boundary condition to account for the linear bottom friction effect is investigated. Numerical experiments show that the use of the backward characteristics scheme with quadratic interpolation is able to reduce significantly the reflection of the wave at the outflow boundary and that the scheme is unconditionally stable.

    Notes: A method for analysing eigenvalues of the Helmholtz equation using a standard existing subroutine for eigenvalue determination is developed in this paper. It is based on the boundary integral equation formulation known as the multiple reciprocity method (MRM). The above-mentioned formulation, having polynomial matrices in terms of the eigenvalue as the coefficient matrices, is transformed into the standard-type eigenvalue problem. The resulting formulation makes it possible to determine the required eigenvalues only by boundary discretisation without any initial rough estimation.

    Notes: The completely adhesive contact between an FE-modelled orthotropic half-plane and a vertically loaded rigid flat punch is studied. Interface normal and shear-stress distributions between the punch and half-plane are FE-calculated and compared for some sets of half-plane boundary conditions frequently used in the literature for contact problems with friction. These results are compared with analytical solutions, and appropriate half-plane boundary conditions are recommended for frictional contact problems.
