Flow Past A Rotating Circular Cylinder and A Rotlet Using the Finite-Difference Method

T.B.A. El Bashir · Sultan Qaboos University Journal for Science · 2000 · 10.24200/squjs.vol5iss0pp85-104

… sidered. We introduce a transformation which simplifies the equations and boundary conditions. We use the finite-difference method to obtain results in excellent agreement with all the available analytical results. Results are presented for Reynolds numbers, based on the diameter of the cylinder, in the range 0 ≤ Re ≤ …

Towards Solutions of Seepage Problems

Amer Ali Al-Rawas, Mohammed Yousuf Al-Aghbari, Nagaratnam Sivakugan et al. · Sultan Qaboos University Journal for Science · 1997 · 10.24200/squjs.vol2iss0pp17-27

Flow rates are traditionally used for solving seepage problems in soils. In this paper, the method of fragments is presented as a good alternative for solving seepage problems. A user friendly and interactive computer program for the method of fragments has been developed. Several randomly selected problems are solved …

Numerical Wave Solutions for Nonlinear Coupled Equations using Sinc-Collocation Method

Kamel Al‐Khaled · Sultan Qaboos University Journal for Science · 2015 · 10.24200/squjs.vol20iss2pp19-30

… nonlinear coupled Korteweg-de Vries(abbreviated as KdV) equations are calculated by the Sinc-collocation method. This approach is based on a global collocation method using Sinc basis functions. The first step is to discretize time derivative of the KdV equations by a classic finite difference formula, while the space …

Error Analysis of An Explicit Finite Difference Approximation for the Space Fractional Wave Equations

Nasser Hassan Sweilam, Taghreed Abdul Rahman Assiri · Sultan Qaboos University Journal for Science · 2012 · 10.24200/squjs.vol17iss2pp245-253

… E) is numerically studied, where the fractional derivative is defined in the sense of Caputo. An explicit finite difference approximation (EFDA) for SFWE is presented. The stability and the error analysis of the EFDA are discussed. To demonstrate the effectiveness of the approximated method, some test examples are pres …

Performance of Porous Breakwaters: Application of the BOUSS-2D Model

R Balaji · The Journal of Engineering Research · 2012 · 10.24200/tjer.vol9iss1pp11-20

… breakwaters was studied by numerical analysis to assess reflection and transmission characteristics. The finite-difference method on BOUSS-2D was used to test the efficiency of porous breakwaters. The effects of porosity on reflection and transmission characteristics under the action of regular waves were investigated …

Determination of Potential Profile In Planar Electronic Structures Using A Semi-Analytical Technique

Hadj Bourdoucen, Mokrane Dehmas, El-Bachir Yallaoui · The Journal of Engineering Research · 2010 · 10.24200/tjer.vol7iss1pp62-69

In this paper, a semi-analytical technique known as the Method of Lines (MoL) with uniform and non-uniform discretization schemes is developed. The aim is to determine static potential profile in planar electronic structures. Even though this method has been known for some time, there has been reported work on its appl …
