Abstract

Purpose

In this paper, the explicit multistep, explicit multistep-SP and implicit multistep iterative sequences are introduced in the context of modular function spaces and proven to converge to the fixed point of a multivalued map T such that PρT, an associate multivalued map, is a ρ-contractive-like mapping.

Design/methodology/approach

The concepts of relative ρ-stability and weak ρ-stability are introduced, and conditions in which these multistep iterations are relatively ρ-stable, weakly ρ-stable and ρ-stable are established for the newly introduced strong ρ-quasi-contractive-like class of maps.

Findings

Noor type, Ishikawa type and Mann type iterative sequences are deduced as corollaries in this study.

Originality/value

The results obtained in this work are complementary to those proved in normed and metric spaces in the literature.

Abstract

The purpose of this paper is to extend the recent results of Okeke et al. (2018) to the class of multivalued ρ-quasi-contractive mappings in modular function spaces. We approximate fixed points of this class of nonlinear multivalued mappings in modular function spaces. Moreover, we extend the concepts of T-stability, almost T-stability and summably almost T-stability to modular function spaces and give some results.

Abstract

Eddy currents are investigated in a ferromagnetic bar exposed to a transverse magnetic field. Such an open boundary field problem is analysed applying the Galerkin finite element method coupled with a separation of variables. A steady state is considered, introducing time periodic conditions. The resultant system of nonlinear equations is solved using an iterative procedure based on Brouwer's fixed‐point theorem referred to the nonlinear material reluctivity. Numerical results are presented for a massive conductor made of cast steel and cast iron. The eddy‐current distribution and characteristics of power losses are illustrated in a graphic form.

Abstract

Purpose

In this paper, we use the notion of cyclic representation of a nonempty set with respect to a pair of mappings to obtain coincidence points and common fixed points for a pair of self-mappings satisfying some generalized contraction- type conditions involving a control function in partial metric spaces. Moreover, we provide some examples to analyze and illustrate our main results.

Design/methodology/approach

Theoretical method.

Findings

We establish some coincidence points and common fixed point results in partial metric spaces.

Abstract

This paper is concerned with the existence of mild solutions for a class of fractional semilinear integro-differential equations having non-instantaneous impulses. The result is obtained by using noncompact semigroup theory and fixed point theorem. The obtained result is illustrated by an example at the end.

Abstract

The non‐well‐founded properties of the empty set provide existence to abstract topological spaces, in which intersections of subspaces with non‐equal dimensions give topologically closed structures. This let space‐time emerge as an ordered sequence of sections upon a defined combination rule, in which interactivity between observable structures is allowed and conditions for conscious perception phenomena are fulfilled. Conditions for evolution and rules for optimal evolution of ecosystems also infer as corollaries. A physical universe and life constitute one single self‐organized and self managed system where life appears as the physical‐like realization of conditions of functionality of the embedding mathematical spaces. The system includes self‐ethical and moral guidelines which should inspire human behavior on Planet Earth.

Abstract

Purpose

The purpose of this paper is to describe a finite element formulation to approximate thermally coupled flows using both the Boussinesq and the low Mach number models with particular emphasis on the numerical implementation of the algorithm developed.

Design/methodology/approach

The formulation, that allows us to consider convection dominated problems using equal order interpolation for all the valuables of the problem, is based on the subgrid scale concept. The full Newton linearization strategy gives rise to monolithic treatment of the coupling of variables whereas some fixed point schemes permit the segregated treatment of velocity‐pressure and temperature. A relaxation scheme based on the Armijo rule has also been developed.

Findings

A full Newtown linearization turns out to be very efficient for steady‐state problems and very robust when it is combined with a line search strategy. A segregated treatment of velocity‐pressure and temperature happens to be more appropriate for transient problems.

Research limitations/implications

A fractional step scheme, splitting also momentum and continuity equations, could be further analysed.

Practical implications

The results presented in the paper are useful to decide the solution strategy for a given problem.

Originality/value

The numerical implementation of a stabilized finite element approximation of thermally coupled flows is described. The implementation algorithm is developed considering several possibilities for the solution of the discrete nonlinear problem.
