The statement of the eigenvalue problem for a tensor–block matrix of any order and of any
even rank is formulated. It is known that the eigenvalues of the tensor and the tensor–block matrix
are invariant quantities. Therefore, in this work, our goal is to find the expression for the velocities of
wave propagation of some medias through the eigenvalues of the material objects. In particular, we
consider the classical and micropolar materials with the different anisotropy symbols and for them
we determine the expressions for the velocities of wave propagation through the eigenvalues of the
material objects. Full article

The statement of the eigenvalue problem for a tensor–block matrix (TBM) of any order and of any even rank is formulated, and also some of its special cases are considered. In particular, using the canonical presentation of the TBM of the tensor of elastic modules of the micropolar theory, in the canonical form the specific deformation energy and the constitutive relations are written. With the help of the introduced TBM operator, the equations of motion of a micropolar arbitrarily anisotropic medium are written, and also the boundary conditions are written down by means of the introduced TBM operator of the stress and the couple stress vectors. The formulations of initial-boundary value problems in these terms for an arbitrary anisotropic medium are given. The questions on the decomposition of initial-boundary value problems of elasticity and thin body theory for some anisotropic media are considered. In particular, the initial-boundary problems of the micropolar (classical) theory of elasticity are presented with the help of the introduced TBM operators (tensors–operators). In the case of an isotropic micropolar elastic medium (isotropic and transversely isotropic classical media), the TBM operator (tensors–operators) of cofactors to TBM operators (tensors–tensors) of the initial-boundary value problems are constructed that allow decomposing initial-boundary value problems. We also find the determinant and the tensor of cofactors to the sum of six tensors used for decomposition of initial-boundary value problems. From three-dimensional decomposed initial-boundary value problems, the corresponding decomposed initial-boundary value problems for the theories of thin bodies are obtained. Full article

This article presents an algorithm for solving the unsteady problem of one-dimensional coupled thermoelastic diffusion perturbations propagation in a multicomponent isotropic half-space, as a result of surface and bulk external effects. One-dimensional physico-mechanical processes, in a continuum, have been described by a local-equilibrium model, which included the coupled linear equations of an elastic medium motion, heat transfer, and mass transfer. The unknown functions of displacement, temperature, and concentration increments were sought in the integral form, which was a convolution of the surface and bulk Green’s functions and external effects functions. The Laplace transform on time and the Fourier sine and cosine transforms on the coordinate were used to find the Green’s functions. The obtained Green’s functions was analyzed. Test calculations were performed on the examples of some technological processes. Full article

We studied the properties of generalized solutions in unbounded domains and the asymptotic behavior of solutions of elliptic boundary value problems at infinity. Moreover, we studied the unique solvability of the mixed Dirichlet–Steklov-type and Steklov-type biharmonic problems in the exterior of a compact set under the assumption that generalized solutions of these problems has a bounded Dirichlet integral with weight | x | a. Depending on the value of the parameter a, we obtained uniqueness (non-uniqueness) theorems of these problems or present exact formulas for the dimension of the space of solutions. Full article

This article considers an unsteady elastic diffusion model of Euler–Bernoulli beam oscillations in the presence of diffusion flux relaxation. We used the model of coupled elastic diffusion for a homogeneous orthotropic multicomponent continuum to formulate the problem. A model of unsteady bending for the elastic diffusive Euler–Bernoulli beam was obtained using Hamilton’s variational principle. The Laplace transform on time and the Fourier series expansion by the spatial coordinate were used to solve the obtained problem. Full article

The re-quantization method—one of the resurgent analysis methods of current importance—is developed in this study. It is widely used in the analytical theory of linear differential equations. With the help of the re-quantization method, the problem of constructing the asymptotics of the inverse Laplace–Borel transform is solved for a particular type of functions with holomorphic coefficients that exponentially grow at zero. Two examples of constructing the uniform asymptotics at infinity for the second- and forth-order differential equations with the help of the re-quantization method and the result obtained in this study are considered.

In the paper, the dynamic motion of a point ball with a mass of m , sliding in a viscous liquid between two concentric spheres under the influence of gravity and viscous and dry resistance, is investigated. In addition, it is considered that the ball starts its motion from some arbitrary point M 0 = M ( θ 0 , φ 0 ) . A system of nonlinear differential equations in a spheroidal coordinate system is obtained for the angular variables θ and φ to account for all the forces acting on the ball. The dependence of the reaction force on the angular variables is found, and the solution of the resulting system of equations is numerically analyzed. The projections of the trajectories on the plane x y ,   y z ,   x z are found. Full article
