A NOTE ON A CHARACTERIZATION OF LOCAL NULL SEQUENCE

SUNDAY OLUYEMI*

We replace an arbitrary sequence of positive real numbers by a sequence of positive integers in a characterization of local null sequence, and consequently procure an example of a separated locally convex space in which convergence is Mackey.

Unsteady Mhd Oscillatory Flow Through A Porous Channel Saturated With Porous Medium

S. A. Onitilo*

In this paper, we investigate the effect of suction/injection on the unsteady oscillatory flow through a vertical channel with non-uniform wall temperature. The fluid is subjected to a transverse magnetic field, and the velocity slip at the lower plate is taken into consideration. Exact solutions of the dimensionless equations governing the fluid flow are obtained, and the effects of the flow para...

Gradient Analysis in pipe networking for Domestic water supply system in transient flow

Aiyesimi Y. M*, Effiom Uket Effiom, Gbolahan Bolarin

Transient flow in water distribution networks is studied using the Gradient Method. In an attempt to obtain solutions rapidly, a computer program has been developed in FORTRAN 77. The computer program developed herein is general, easy to use, and allows a dynamic analysis of complex looped and open water distribution networks. Piezometric heads at nodes and flow rates in pipes are computed for wat...

Numerical Integration of Seventh order Boundary Value Problems by Standard Collocation Method via Four Orthogonal Polynomials

K. A. Bello*, O. A. Taiwo, A. Abdulkareem, J. U. Abubakar, F. A. Adebisi

Based on standard collocation technique, four (4) different orthogonal polynomials were used as basis functions in the numerical treatment of seventh (7th) order boundary value problems in Ordinary Differential Equations. The perfor mance of each of these polynomials as basis function in the trial solution was then compared. The results obtained from three examples showed that Chebyshev polynomial...

Variation Iteration Decomposition Method for the Numerical Solution of Integro-Di erential Equations

Ignatius N. Njoseh*, Ebimene J. Mamadu

This paper seeks the numerical solution of integro-differential equations via the variation iteration decomposition method (VIDM). The mode of convergence of this method as applied toIntegro-differential equations is determined by the step-size parameter, h. The approximate solution converges for h  105+n where n is the number of iterations. Similarly, the method requires no discretization, linea...

Determination of Consistent Performance of Lax-Friedrichs Method in Solving Seepage Problem

F. D. Bakare*, I. O. Abiala, J. S. Aroloye

We developed a consistent Lax-Friedrichs method for numerical solution of the seepage problem subject to some initial and boundary conditions. We also compared the result obtained using numerical method (Lax-Friedrichs) with the result obtained using Alternating Direction Implicit finite difference method (ADIS). The scheme developed was found to be stable for φ < 1, and unstable for φ ≥ 1. Since ...

Investigating the Effect of Damping Coefficients on Euler-Bernoulli Beam Subjected to Partially Distributed Moving Load

M. A. Usman*, B. T. Ogunsan, S. T. Okusaga, O. O. Solanke

In this paper, the effect of damping coefficients on Euler Bernoulli Beam subjected to distributed load is studied. The partial differential equation of order five was transformed to ordinary differential equation of order two using finite fourier sine transform. Finite difference method was used to solve the resulting differential equation of order two. It was found that the amplitude decreases a...
