PREFACE By using mathematical models to describe the physical, biological or chemical phenomena, one of the most common results is either a differential equation or a system of differential equations, together with the correct boundary and initial conditions. The determination and interpretation of their solution are at the base of applied mathematics. Hence the analytical and numerical study of the differential equation is very much essential for all theoretical and experimental researchers, and this book helps to develop skills in this area. Recently nonlinear differential equations were widely used to model many of the interesting and relevant phenomena found in many fields of science and technology on a mathematical basis. This problem is to inspire them in various fields such as economics, medical biology, plasma physics, particle physics, differential geometry, engineering, signal processing, electrochemistry and materials science. This book contains seven chapters and practical applications to the problems of the real world. The first chapter is specifically for those with limited mathematical background. Chapter 1 presents the introduction of nonlinear reaction-diffusion systems, various boundary conditions and examples. Real-life application of nonlinear reactiondiffusion in different fields with some important nonlinear equations is

also discussed. In Chapter 2, mathematical preliminaries and various advanced methods of solving nonlinear differential equations such as Homotopy perturbation method, variational iteration method, exponential function method etc. are described with examples. Steady and non-steady state reaction-diffusion equations in the plane sheet (Chapter 3), cylinder (Chapter 4) and spherical (Chapter 5) are analyzed. The analytical results published by various researchers in referred journals during 2007-2020 have been addressed in these Chapters 4 to 6, and this leads to conclusions and recommendations on what approaches to use on nonlinear reaction-diffusion equations. Convection-diffusion problems arise very often in applied sciences and engineering. Nonlinear convection-diffusion equations and corresponding analytical solutions in various fields of chemical sciences are discussed in Chapter 6. Numerical methods are used to provide approximate results for the nonlinear problems, and their importance is felt when it is impossible or difficult to solve a given problem analytically. Chapter 7 identifies some of the numerical methods for finding solutions to nonlinear differential equations.

Chapter 1

FUNDAMENTALS OF NONLINEAR REACTIONDIFFUSION EQUATIONS 1.1. NONLINEAR REACTION-DIFFUSION SYSTEM Reaction-diffusion processes are the mathematical models which correspond to different physical phenomena in the applied sciences. Space and time can not be considered as independent variables in this equation. An equation of reaction-diffusion contains a term of reaction and a term of diffusion. In the system, the substances are converted into one another through chemical reactions and diffusion that allows the materials to spread across a space surface. Models of reaction-diffusion are widely used in the fields of chemistry, physics and engineering sciences. However, the model can also represent non-chemical, dynamic processes. Mathematically, the reaction-diffusion systems take the form of semi-parabolic partial differential equations. They may be described as follows in the general form (Rajendran, Kirthiga, and Laborda 2017): ∂𝑆(𝑥,𝑡) ∂𝑡

= 𝐷𝑆 ∇2 𝑆(𝑥, 𝑡) − 𝑓(𝑆, 𝑃)

(1.1)

2

L. Rajendran, R. Swaminathan and M. Chitra Devi ∂𝑃(𝑥,𝑡) ∂𝑡

= 𝐷𝑃 ∇2 𝑃(𝑥, 𝑡) + 𝑔(𝑆, 𝑃)

(1.2)

where S(x, t) (substrate) and P(x,t) (product) represents the unknown vector function, 𝐷 is diffusion coefficients, and 𝑓(𝑆, 𝑃) and 𝑔(𝑆, 𝑃) accounts for all local reactions. This is a linear or nonlinear function. This function depends upon the type and nature/order of the reactions. The first term on the right hand is called a diffusion term, and the second term is called a reaction term. ∇2 is the Laplace operator. ∇2 𝑆 = ∇2 𝑆 =

The variable x is often confined to a domain 𝛺 with boundary 𝜕𝛺, and then solutions are sought, which satisfy specific initial and boundary conditions on 𝜕𝛺. Boundary conditions are those which depends on space while the initial conditiondepends on time. Generally, the boundary conditions have the following types. There are five types

of boundary conditions: Dirichlet, Neumann, Robin, Mixed, and Cauchy, within which Dirichlet and Neumann are predominant. In the Table 1.1, 𝑙, 𝑚, 𝛼, 𝛽, 𝑓, 𝑔 are known as scalar function and 𝑑𝑆/𝑑𝑛 is directional normal derivative. S and P are unknown functions.

1.2. APPLICATION OF NONLINEAR REACTION-DIFFUSION SYSTEM Nonlinear reaction-diffusion has been the most powerful tool for mathematical modeling of various processes in biology, geology, and physics (neutron diffusion theory) medicine (physiology, diseases, etc.), genetics, social science, finance, economics, weather prediction, astrophysics, and ecology. Pioneering models have been developed to describe some of the classical laws in physics and astronomy.

1.2.1. Biological Sciences Nonlinear differential equations describe the different biological processes (James D Murray 2002; J D Murray 2003) such as population dynamics, gene propagation, environmental invasions, predator-prey equations, and dynamics of competition. In biological sciences, the notorious nonlinear equation is the Burgers equation and the Fisher equation.

1.2.2. Chemical Sciences Nonlinear reaction-diffusion processes is applied in chemical sciences such as organic and organometallic processes, homogeneous mediated enzyme-catalyzed reactions, multi-layered enzyme-modified

electrodes and nanostructured porous film, polymer-modified ultramicroelectrodes, biosensors, biofuel cells, and bioreactors. Nonlinear reaction–diffusion systems are naturally implemented in physical and electrochemistry (Rajendran, Kirthiga, and Laborda 2017; Laborda, Henstridge, and Compton 2012; Britz 1988; Ángela Molina and Joaquín González 2016; Bieniasz 2017). This equation is obtained by combining Fick’s diffusion law with the law on chemical reaction rate. Naturally, reaction-diffusion equations occur in systems which consist of many interacting elements.

1.2.3. Medical Sciences Mathematical models are also used to describe biomedical processes. All the models are based on nonlinear PDEs, and usually, they are not linearizable. Nonlinear differential equations occur in different pharmaceutical science fields such as infectious diseases, cancer growth and blood clotting, distribution of heat sources in a human body, nerve pulse transmission, and neurosciences. An epidemic is a sudden spread of the disease in a given population to a large number of people within a limited period. Example: cholera, SARS, malaria, plague, and corona. COVID-19 is a new model (not a SIR, SEIR, and other models) in 2020. This system is based on the nonlinear rate equations of susceptible, uncovered, curable affected, genital infections infected and removed people including recovered and death people containing nonlinear terms related to the transmission period, infectious period, transmission rate, birth, and death rate, the lifetime of viruses, etc.(“Coronavirus @ Www.Who.Int,” n.d.; Zhou et al. 2020; Li et al. 2020; Huang et al. 2020; J. T. Wu, Leung, and Leung 2020).

1.2.4. Physical Sciences Nonlinear differential equations occur in several fields of physical sciences for instance in particle physics, plasma physics, charged nanoparticles, image processes, fluid mechanics, soliton physics, quantum field theory (Leung 2009). The relevant examples are the Ricatti equation and Poisson-Boltzmann equations.

1.2.5. Engineering Sciences In many applied sciences, such as heat transfer/soil consolidation, elasticity, quantum mechanics, water flow, thermodynamics, concrete carbonation, classical and fluid mechanics, solid mechanics, and others, the problems are overseened by nonlinear partial differential equations (Zeng et al. 2014). Euler-Bernoulli beam equation is one of the essential examples of linear equations in engineering sciences. The coupled nonlinear equations of motion in heave, roll, and pitch are based on physical grounds in ship dynamics. The materials for design and implementation are composed of three components. These are the friction forces and moments, the regeneration of forces and moments and the damping of forces and moments(Skjetne, Smogeli, and Fossen 2004; Chan, Xu, and Huang 1995; Pedišić Buča and Senjanović 2006).

1.3. SOME IMPORTANT NONLINEAR REACTION-DIFFUSION EQUATIONS Nonlinear reaction-diffusion equations are one of the most common differential/partial differential equations used to model physical phenomena. Nonlinear equations describe many of the major issues in solid-state physics, optics, plasma physics, fluid mechanics, population

trends, and many others that occur in mathematical biology, engineering sciences, and other technical fields. In Table 1.2, some of the important nonlinear equations with various fields are given. Table 1.2. Examples of some important nonlinear equations Field

1.4. VARIOUS ANALYTICAL METHODS FOR FINDING THE SOLUTION OF NONLINEAR EQUATIONS The well-known linear superposition principle cannot be applied to generate new, exact solutions for nonlinear PDEs. This implies that classical methods (the Fourier method, the Laplace transformation methods, and the Green function, etc.) are not helping to solve these PDEs. Thus, constructing unique exact solutions for these equations is a non-trivial problem. But it is of fundamental importance to find accurate or approximate solutions which have a physical, chemical or biological interpretation. Recently Homotopy perturbation method (Duval, Town, and Van Leeuwen 2018; Rajendran, Kirthiga, and Laborda 2017; He 1999a; Y. Wu and He 2018; Meena and Rajendran 2010), homotopy analysis method (Ganji and Sadighi 2006; Liao 1992; 2009; Liao, and Sherif, 2004), Adomian decomposition method (Adomian 1994; Sivasankari and Rajendran 2013; Praveen, Valencia, and Rajendran 2014), Variational iteration method (He and Latifizadeh 2020; He 1999b; 2000; Rahamathunissa and Rajendran 2008), Taylor’s series method, Akbar-Ganji method (Akbari et al. 2014; Dharmalingam and Veeramuni 2019), wavelet method (Hariharan 2019) and residual method (Saunders 1985; Saranya, Mohan, and Rajendran 2020), etc. has been used to find the approximate analytical solution of nonlinear problems. The basic concept of all these methods with examples is described in the next chapter.

MATHEMATICAL PRELIMINARIES AND VARIOUS METHODS OF SOLVING NONLINEAR DIFFERENTIAL EQUATIONS 2.1. OVERVIEW The nonlinear differential equations can describe most of the physical processes that arise in mathematical physics/chemistry and engineering. The problems occur in various fields of applied mathematics, physics, and engineering, including particle physics, astrophysics, condensed-matter physics, fluid dynamics, optics, solid mechanics, plasma physics quantum field theory and electrochemistry, etc. (Debnath 2012; Wazwaz 2009; Miller and Ross 1993; Saha Ray 2015; Kilbas, Srivastava, and Trujillo 2006; Gorenflo and Mainardi 1997). Some assumptions in the nonlinear problems deviate from the real solutions; thus, they may vary from the actual physical behavior. By overcoming those limitations, physically accurate or approximate solutions can be obtained to know the normal behavior of physical systems.

2.2. VARIOUS METHODS OF SOLVING NONLINEAR DIFFERENTIAL EQUATIONS The approximate solutions for strongly nonlinear differential equations depend upon (i) one dimensional or multidimensional, (ii) steady-state or non-steady-state, (iii) migration effects, (iv) system of ODE/PDEs coupled by the homogenous kinetics/ heterogeneous kinetics terms and (v) hydrodynamics related to fast/slow diffusion. Over the last few decades, different methods have been reported to obtain the analytical solutions such as extended tanh (El-Wakil and Abdou 2007), Jacobi-elliptic function expansion (Inc and Ergüt 2005), F-expansion, and the First integral (Z. Feng 2002), Tanh-sech (Malfliet 1992) and sine-cosine method (Mitchell 1980). Some of the powerful analytical methods which are applied to solve the nonlinear problems recently are listed below. In the next section, the basic concept of the following method is discussed. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. 10.

2.3. ANALYTICAL METHODS WITH BASIC EXPLANATION AND EXAMPLES In this section basic concept of the analytical methods mentioned above are explained with simple examples.

2.3.1. Homotopy Perturbation Method (HPM) The homotopy perturbation method is an effective and useful method for finding solutions to nonlinear equations. This method was first introduced by He in 1998 (J. H. He 1999; 2000b).

2.3.1.1. Basic Idea of Homotopy Perturbation Method Let’s consider the following function to explain the method 𝐴(𝑤) − 𝑓(𝑟) = 0, 𝑟 ∈ Ω

(2.1)

The given boundary conditions is 𝜕𝑤

𝐵 (𝑤, 𝜕𝑛 ) = 0, 𝑟 ∈ Γ

(2.2)

where 𝐴 and 𝐵 are a general differential and a boundary operator. 𝑓 is a given analytical function and 𝛺 is the boundary of the domain, The operator 𝐴 can be split into a linear part 𝐿 and a nonlinear part 𝑁. Eqn. (2.1) can therefore, be written as 𝐿(𝑤) + 𝑁(𝑤) − 𝑓(𝑟) = 0

(2.3)

We construct a homotopy 𝑧(𝑟, 𝑝): 𝛺 × [0,1] → 𝑅 using the homotopy technique as follows:

18

L. Rajendran, R. Swaminathan and M. Chitra Devi 𝐻(𝑧, 𝑝) = (1 − 𝑝)[𝐿(𝑧) − 𝐿(𝑤0 )] + 𝑝[𝐴(𝑧) − 𝑓(𝑟)] = 0

where 𝑝 ∈ [0,1], 𝑟 ∈ 𝛺

(2.4)

or 𝐻(𝑧, 𝑝) = 𝐿(𝑧) − 𝐿(𝑤0 ) + 𝑝𝐿(𝑤0 ) + 𝑝[𝑁(𝑧) − 𝑓(𝑟)] = 0

(2.5)

where 𝑝 ∈ [0,1] is an embedding parameter, and 𝑤0 is an initial approximation of Eqn. (2.1), which satisfies the boundary conditions. Obviously, from Eqns. (2.4) and (2.5), we will have 𝐻(𝑧, 0) = 𝐿(𝑧) − 𝐿(𝑤0 ) = 0

(2.6)

𝐻(𝑧, 1) = 𝐴(𝑧) − 𝑓(𝑟) = 0

(2.7)

The changing process of p from zero to unity is 𝑧(𝑟, 𝑝) from 𝑤0 to 𝑤(𝑟). We can first use the embedding parameter p as a small parameter according to the HPM. Assume that the solutions Eqn. (2.4) or (2.5) can be presented as a power series in 𝑝: 𝑧 = 𝑧0 + 𝑝𝑧1 + 𝑝2 𝑧2 + ⋯

(2.8)

Setting 𝑝 = 1 results in the approximate solution of Eqn. (2.8) 𝑤 = 𝑙𝑖𝑚 𝑧 = 𝑧0 + 𝑧1 + 𝑧2 + ⋯ 𝑝→1

(2.9)

The combination of the perturbation method and the Homotopy method is called the HPM, which eliminates the disadvantages of traditional methods of perturbation while retaining all its advantages.

(2.12)

at 𝑋 = 1, 𝑈 = 1, 𝑉′ = 0

Adding Eqns. (2.10) and (2.11) and integrating the resulting equation twice we get, 𝑈

(2.20)

2.3.2. Homotopy Analysis Method (HAM) The homotopy analysis method is a semi-analytical procedure used to solve nonlinear differential equations. The HAM was first developed by Liao Shijun of Shanghai Jiaotong University in his Ph.D. thesis (S. Liao 1992) in 1992 and further modified (S. J. Liao 1999) to introduce a non-zero auxiliary parameter in 1997. The convergence-control parameter is a non-physical variable that provides an easy way to check and implement the convergence of a series of solutions.

2.3.2.1. Basic Idea of Homotopy Analysis Method Consider the following differential equation: 𝑁[𝑢(𝑡)] = 0

(2.28)

where, 𝛮 is a nonlinear operator, 𝑡 denotes an independent variable, 𝑢(𝑡) is an unknown function. We disregard, for convenience, all boundary or initial conditions that can be viewed in a similar way. Liao constructed the zero-order deformation equation by generalizing the traditional homotopy approach as:

22

L. Rajendran, R. Swaminathan and M. Chitra Devi (1 − 𝑝)𝐿[𝜙(𝑡; 𝑝) − 𝑢0 (𝑡)] = 𝑝ℎ𝐻(𝑡)𝑁[𝜙(𝑡; 𝑝)]

(2.29)

where 𝑝 ∈ [0,1] is the embedding parameter, ℎ ≠ 0 is a nonzero auxiliary parameter, H(t) ≠ 0 is an auxiliary function, 𝐿 is an auxiliary linear operator, 𝑢0 (𝑡) is an initial guess of 𝑢(𝑡) and 𝜙(𝑡: 𝑝) is an unknown function. It is essential, that one has great freedom to select auxiliary unknowns in HAM. Obviously, when 𝑝 = 0 and 𝑝 = 1, it holds: 𝜙(𝑡; 0) = 𝑢0 (𝑡) and 𝜙(𝑡; 1) = 𝑢(𝑡)

(2.30)

respectively. Thus, as 𝑝 increases from 0 to 1, the solution 𝜙(𝑡; 𝑝) varies from the initial guess 𝑢0 (𝑡) to the solution 𝑢(𝑡). Expanding 𝜙(𝑡; 𝑝) in Taylor series with respect to 𝑝, we have: 𝑚 𝜙(𝑡; 𝑝) = 𝑢0 (𝑡) + ∑+∞ 𝑚=1 𝑢𝑚 (𝑡)𝑝

(2.31)

where 𝑢𝑚 (𝑡) =

1 𝜕𝑚 𝜙(𝑡;𝑝) 𝑚!

𝜕𝑝𝑚

|𝑝=0

(2.32)

The series (2.31) converges at 𝑝 = 1 then we have: 𝑢(𝑡) = 𝑢0 (𝑡) + ∑+∞ 𝑚=1 𝑢𝑚 (𝑡)

(2.33)

Define the vector →

𝑢𝑛 = {𝑢0 , 𝑢1 , . . . , 𝑢𝑛 }

(2.34)

Mathematical Preliminaries and Various Methods …

23

Differentiating Eqn. (2.29) for 𝑚 times with respect to the embedding parameter 𝑝, and then setting 𝑝 = 0 and finally dividing them by 𝑚!, we obtain 𝑚𝑡ℎ -order deformation equation as: →

𝐿[𝑢𝑚 − 𝜒𝑚 𝑢𝑚−1 ] = ℎ𝐻(𝑡)ℜ𝑚 (𝑢𝑚−1 )

(2.35)

where →

ℜ𝑚 (𝑢𝑚−1 ) = (𝑚−1)!

|𝑝=0

(2.36)

and 𝜒𝑚 = {

𝑎𝑛𝑑 0, 𝑚 ≤ 1, 𝑎𝑛𝑑 1, 𝑚 > 1.

(2.37)

applying 𝐿−1 on both side of Eqn. (2.35), we get 𝑢𝑚 (𝑡) = 𝜒𝑚 𝑢𝑚−1 (𝑡) + ℎ𝐿−1 [𝐻(𝑡)ℜ𝑚 (𝑢 ⃗ 𝑚−1 )]

(2.38)

In this way, it is easily to obtain 𝑢𝑚 for 𝑚 ≥ 1, at 𝑀𝑡ℎ order, we have 𝑢(𝑡) = ∑𝑀 𝑚=0 𝑢𝑚 (𝑡)

(2.39)

when 𝑀 → +∞, we get an accurate approximation of the original equation (2.28). For the convergence of the above method we refer the reader to Liao (Liao, and Sherif, 2004). If equation (2.28) admits a unique solution, then the unique solution will be made. If equation (2.28) does not have a particular solution, the HAM would be presenting a solution among several (possible) solutions. HPM is special cases of HAM. When we set ℎ = −1 we will

24

L. Rajendran, R. Swaminathan and M. Chitra Devi

get the same solutions for all the problems by above methods (Van Gorder 2015).

2.3.2.2. Example: Steady-State Biofilters The mathematical model of steady-state biofiltration is based on the system of nonlinear reaction/diffusion equations contains a nonlinear term related to Monod kinetics (Zarook and Shaikh 1997). 𝑑 2 𝐶1 𝑑𝑋 2

where 𝐶1 and 𝐶10 denotes the dimensionless concentration of VOC and oxygen, X is the dimensionless position in the biolayer. 𝜑 2 represents the Thiele modulus, 𝜃, 𝑀, 𝐿 𝑎𝑛𝑑 𝑁 are dimensionless constants. The boundary conditions are (M. Sivasankari and Rajendran 2013) 𝐴𝑡 𝑋 = 0; 𝐶1 = 1 𝑎𝑛𝑑 𝐶10 = 1 and 𝑎𝑡 𝑋 = 1:

Using the relationship between Eqns. (2.40) - (2.41) and using boundary conditions (2.42) we obtain the relation between the concentrations as follows 𝐶10 = 1 − 𝜃(1 − 𝐶1 )

(2.43)

To solve Eqn. (2.40) by means of HAM, we first construct the zeroth-order deformation equation by taking 𝐻(𝑡) = 1: We construct the Homotopy as follows:

The approximate solutions of Eqn. (2.44) as follows: 𝐶1 = 𝐶1 0 + 𝑝𝐶11 + 𝑝2 𝐶1 2 + ⋯

(2.45)

The rearranged boundary conditions are as follows 𝐶1 0 (0) = 1 and 𝐶1 0,𝑥 (1) = 0

(2.46)

𝐶1 𝑖 (0) = 0 and 𝐶1 𝑖,𝑥 (1) = 0, 𝑖 = 1,2

(2.47)

Substituting Eqn. (2.45) in Eqn. (2.44) and equating the like powers of p, we get 𝑝0 :

2.3.3. Adomian Decomposition Method George Adomian (1923–1996) developed an influential approach to answering nonlinear equations in the 1980s. The method is called the Adomian decomposition method (ADM) (George Adomian 1994). This technique is based upon functional equation representation as a series of functions. Every term in the series is obtained from a polynomial generated by an expansion of the power series.

2.3.3.1. Basic Concepts of the Adomian Decomposition Method (ADM) Consider the nonlinear differential equation 𝑦 ” + 𝑁(𝑦) = 𝑔(𝑥)

(2.53)

with boundary conditions 𝑦(0) = 𝐴, 𝑦 ′ (𝑏) = 𝐵

(2.54)

where 𝑁(𝑦) is a nonlinear function, 𝑔(𝑥) is the known function and 𝐴, 𝐵, 𝑏 are given constants. As below we also provide the differential operator 𝐿=

𝑑2 𝑑𝑥 2

(2.55)

So, Eqn. (2.53) can be written as 𝐿(𝑦) = 𝑔(𝑥) − 𝑁(𝑦)

(2.56)

The inverse operator 𝐿−1 is therefore considered as a two-fold integral operator, as below

Mathematical Preliminaries and Various Methods … 𝑥

𝑥

𝐿−1 (. ) = ∫0 ∫𝑏 (. ) 𝑑𝑥𝑑𝑥

27 (2.57)

Applying the inverse operator 𝐿−1on both sides of Eqn. (2.56) yields 𝑦(𝑥) = 𝐿−1 (𝑔(𝑥)) − 𝐿−1 (𝑁(𝑦)) + 𝑦′(𝑏)(𝑥 − 0) + 𝑦(0)

(2.58)

Using the boundary conditions Eqn. (2.54), Eqn. (2.58) becomes 𝑦(𝑥) = 𝐿−1 (𝑔(𝑥)) − 𝐿−1 (𝑁(𝑦)) + 𝐵𝑥 + 𝐴

(2.59)

The Adomian decomposition method introduce the solution 𝑦(𝑥) and the nonlinear function 𝑁(𝑦) by infinite series 𝑦(𝑥) = ∑∞ 𝑛=0 𝑦𝑛 (𝑥)

(2.60)

𝑁(𝑦) = ∑∞ 𝑛=0 𝐴𝑛

(2.61)

and

where the components 𝑦𝑛 (𝑥) of the solution 𝑦(𝑥) are recurrently calculated and the Adomian polynomials 𝐴𝑛 of 𝑁(𝑦) are evaluated using the formula 1 𝑑𝑛

𝑛 𝐴𝑛 (𝑥) = 𝑛! 𝑑𝜆𝑛 𝑁(∑∞ 𝑛=0 𝜆 𝑦𝑛 )𝜆=0

(2.62)

which gives 𝐴0 = 𝑁(𝑦0 ), 𝐴1 = 𝑁 ′ (𝑦0 )𝑦1 , 1

𝐴2 = 𝑁′(𝑦0 )𝑦2 + 2 𝑁”(𝑦0 )𝑦12 , 1

𝐴3 = 𝑁′(𝑦0 )𝑦3 + 𝑁”(𝑦0 )𝑦1 𝑦2 + 3! 𝑁′”(𝑦0 )𝑦13 , ⋮

(2.63)

28

L. Rajendran, R. Swaminathan and M. Chitra Devi By replacing Eqns. (2.60) and (2.61) in Eqn. (2.59) gives ∞ −1 −1 ∑∞ 𝑛=0 𝑦𝑛 = 𝐿 (𝑔(𝑥)) − 𝐿 (∑𝑛=0 𝐴𝑛 ) + 𝐵𝑥 + 𝐴

(2.64)

Formerly linking the terms in the linear system of Eqn. (2.63) provides the recurrent relation 𝑦0 = 𝐿−1 (𝑔(𝑥)) + 𝐵𝑥 + 𝐴, 𝑦𝑛+1 = −𝐿−1 (𝐴𝑛 ), 𝑛 ≥ 0

(2.65)

which gives 𝑦0 = 𝐿−1 (𝑔(𝑥)) + 𝐵𝑥 + 𝐴, 𝑦1 = −𝐿−1 (𝐴0 ), 𝑦2 = −𝐿−1 (𝐴1 ), 𝑦3 = −𝐿−1 (𝐴2 ), ⋮

(2.66)

From Eqn. (2.63) and (2.66), we can regulate the components of 𝑦𝑛 (𝑥), and hence the solution of 𝑦𝑛 (𝑥) in Eqn. (2.59) can be directly attained.

𝑥 = 0, 𝑑𝑥 = 0

(2.68)

𝑥 = 1, 𝑐 = 𝑚

(2.69)

Our goal is to apply the ADM (G. Adomian 1976; G. Adomian and Adomian 1984) to the model. Initially we rewrite the Eqn. (2.67) in operator form as 𝐿(𝑐) = 𝛷2 𝑁(𝑐)

(2.70)

where 𝑑2

𝐿 = 𝑑𝑥 2 and 𝑁(𝑐) =

𝑐 1+𝑐+

𝑐2 𝛽

(2.71)

Put on the inverse operator 𝐿−1 on each sides of the Eqn. (2.70) yields 𝑐(𝑥) = 𝑎𝑥 + 𝑏 + 𝛷2 𝐿−1 (𝑁(𝑐))

(2.72)

where a, b are an integrating constants. We let 𝑐(𝑥) = ∑∞ 𝑛=0 𝑐𝑛 (𝑥)

(2.73)

According to Adomian decomposition method, it is assumed that the nonlinear term 𝑁(𝑐) can be expressed as an infinite series in terms of the Adomian polynomials 𝐴𝑛 as given below

30

L. Rajendran, R. Swaminathan and M. Chitra Devi 𝑁(𝑐) = ∑∞ 𝑛=0 𝐴𝑛 (𝑥)

(2.74)

where the Adomian polynomials 𝐴𝑛 of 𝑁(𝑐) are evaluated using the formula 1 𝑑𝑛

𝑛 𝐴𝑛 = 𝑛! 𝑑𝜆𝑛 𝑁(∑∞ 𝑛=0(𝜆 𝑐𝑛 ))|

(2.75)

where the hypothetical parameter 𝜆 ∈ [0,1]. Substituting Eqns. (2.73) and (2.74) in (2.72) gives 2 −1 ∑∞ ∑∞ 𝑛=0 𝑐𝑛 (𝑥) = 𝑎𝑥 + 𝑏 + 𝛷 𝐿 𝑛=0 𝐴𝑛

(2.76)

Let us classify the zeroth element as 𝑐0 (𝑥) = 𝑎𝑥 + 𝑏

2.3.4. Variational Iteration Method (VIM) The variational iteration method (VIM) introduced by He in 1999 in (J. H. He and Wu 2006a), will be used to analyze the linear and nonlinear wave equation, and wave-like equation in bounded and unbounded domains. The variational iteration method (VIM) has been a familiar semi‐analytical method for finding the solution of nonlinear partial differential equations. The most significant advantage of the approach is its simplicity and ability to solve nonlinear equations rapidly. By this method, if such a solution exists, one can find the successive convergent approximations to the exact solution of the differential equations.

2.3.4.1. Basic Concepts in the Variational Iteration Method The following nonlinear partial differential equation is considered to demonstrate the basic concepts of the variational iteration method (VIM): 𝐿 [𝑢(𝑥)] + 𝑁 [𝑢(𝑥)] = 𝑔(𝑥)

(2.89)

where L is a linear operator, N is a nonlinear operator, and g(x) is a given continuous function (J. H. He and Wu 2006a). According to the Variational iteration method, we can construct a correct functional as follows: 𝑥

𝑢𝑛+1 (𝑥) = 𝑢𝑛 (𝑥) + ∫0 𝜆[𝐿(𝑢𝑛 (𝜁)) + 𝑁(𝑢𝑛 (𝜁)) − 𝑔(𝜁)] 𝑑𝜁

(2.90)

where λ is a general Lagrange multiplier [24, 29] which can be identified optimally via variational theory, 𝑢𝑛 is the nth approximate solution, and 𝑢𝑛 denotes a restricted variation, i.e., 𝛿𝑢𝑛 = 0.

2.3.4.2. Example: Electrochemical Immobilization of Enzymes Amperometric electrodes with thin, immobilized layers containing redox enzymes are finding increasing application in analytical chemistry and biosensors. Consider the mathematical model of glucose oxidase entrapped within a redox hydrogel film or immobilized within a polyelectrolyte membrane. The corresponding system of steady-state nonlinear differential equations in this model are given as follows (Philip N. Bartlett and Eastwick-Field 1993): 𝑑 2 𝑢(𝜒) 𝑑𝜒2 𝑑 2 𝑣(𝜒) 𝑑𝜒2 𝑑 2 𝑤(𝜒) 𝑑𝜒2

(2.92)

+ 𝜅𝑢(𝜒)𝑣(𝜒) = 0

(2.93)

The boundary conditions for the above set of equations can be communicated as 𝑑𝑢 𝑑𝜒

𝑑𝑣

𝑢 = 0, 𝑣 = 1, 𝑤 = 0 at 𝜒 = 1

(2.94) (2.95)

By using the relation between the Eqns. (2.91) and (2.92) and using boundary conditions Eqns. (2.94) and (2.95). The relation between 𝑢 and 𝑣 is obtained as follows 𝑢(𝜒) =

𝑣(𝜒)−1 𝛾

(2.98)

Substituting (2.96) into Eqn. (2.92)we get 𝑑 2 𝑣(𝜒) 𝑑𝜒2

− 𝜅(𝑣 2 (𝜒) − 𝑣(𝜒)) − 𝜅𝛾(1 − 𝜒)𝑣(𝜒) = 0

(2.99)

The following approximation is obtained using the variational iteration method defined above 𝑥

𝑣𝑛+1 (𝜒) = 𝑣𝑛 (𝜒) + ∫0 𝜆[𝑣 ″ (𝜉) − 𝜅(𝑣 2 (𝜉) − 𝑣(𝜉)) − 𝜅𝛾(1 − 𝜉)𝑣(𝜉)] 𝑑𝜉

The Lagrange multiplier for the above system can be founded as (Rahamathunissa et al. 2011) 𝜆 =𝜉−𝜒

(2.101) 𝑥

𝑣𝑛+1 (𝜒) = 𝑣𝑛 (𝜒) + ∫0 (𝜉 − 𝜒)[𝑣 ″ (𝜉) − 𝜅(𝑣 2 (𝜉) − 𝑣(𝜉)) − 𝜅𝛾(1 − 𝜉)𝑣(𝜉)] 𝑑𝜉

2.3.5. Exp-Function Method He and Wu (J. H.

partial differential equations (Misirli and Gurefe 2010), highdimensional nonlinear evaluation equation (Boz and Bekir 2008), differential equation (Bekir 2010), and long-wave nonlinear dispersive equation (Zhang, Tong, and Wang 2009).

2.3.5.1. Basic Concept of Exp-Function Method Let us consider the following nonlinear partial differential equation to understand the exp-function method briefly (J. H. He and Wu 2006b; J. H. He and Abdou 2007; (Benn)Wu and He 2008; Bekir and Boz 2009; Biazar and Ayati 2009) 𝐹(𝑢, 𝑢𝑥 , 𝑢𝑡 , 𝑢𝑥𝑥 , 𝑢𝑥𝑡 , 𝑢𝑡𝑡 , . . . ) = 0

(2.109)

Here, subscripts indicate partial differentiation with respect to indicated variables in the subscript. Using travelling wave transformation 𝑢 = 𝑢(𝜂), 𝜂 = 𝑘𝑥 + 𝜔𝑡 (where 𝑘 and 𝜔 are constants) in Eqn. (2.109), it is possible to transform the partial differential equation into a nonlinear ordinary differential equation 𝐹(𝑢, 𝑢′ , 𝑢″ , . . . ) = 0

(2.110)

where the prime indicates derivative with respect to 𝜂. Using exp-function method, the solution of ordinary differential Eqn. (2.110) can be expressed as 𝑢(𝜂) =

𝑛𝜂 ∑𝑑 𝑛=−𝑐 𝑎𝑛 𝑒 𝑞

∑𝑛=−𝑝 𝑏𝑛 𝑒 𝑛𝜂

(2.111)

where 𝑐, 𝑑, 𝑝 and 𝑞 are positive integers yet to be determined, and 𝑎𝑛 and 𝑏𝑛 are unknown constants. The values of c and p are obtained by balancing exp-functions of the linear term of the lowest order in Eqn. (2.110) with the lowest-order nonlinear term. Similarly, balancing the exp-functions of the highest-

where 𝐴, 𝐵 and 𝑏 are constants. These constants can be obtained using boundary condition (Eqn. (2.113) and (2.114)) as follows: 𝐴 = 𝐵, 𝐵 = 𝑒 𝑏 + 𝑒 −𝑏

(2.116)

Replacing these constants into Eqn. (2.115) we find 𝑈(𝑋) =

𝑒 𝑏𝑋 +𝑒 −𝑏𝑋 𝑒 𝑏 +𝑒 −𝑏

where 𝑏 is the constant coefficient.

Hyperbolic function method, is a special case of the expfunction method. Further, this method was used by many researchers for handling various nonlinear differential equations.

2.3.6.1. Basic Concept of Hyperbolic Function Method The differential equation of 𝑝𝑘 which is a function of 𝑢 and their derivatives are considered as follows (Devi, Pirabaharan, Rajendran, et al. 2020): 𝑝𝑘 : 𝑓(𝑢𝑘 , 𝑢𝑘′ , 𝑢𝑘″ , 𝑎𝑘 , 𝑏𝑘 ) = 0

(2.123)

where 𝑝𝑘 represents a nonlinear differential equation, 𝑢𝑘 = 𝑢𝑘 (𝑥, 𝑎𝑘 , 𝑏𝑘 , … )∀𝑘 = 1 … 𝑛in which 𝑎𝑘 , 𝑏𝑘 are given parameters in the differential equation, 𝑘 = 1,2, … , 𝑛 and 𝑥 ∈ [𝐿, 𝑈]. The boudary conditions are 𝑢𝑘 (𝑥) = 𝑢𝑘𝐿0 or 𝑢𝑘′ (𝑥) = 𝑢𝑘𝐿1 𝑎𝑡 𝑥 = 𝐿

𝑢𝑘 (𝑥) = 𝑢𝑘𝑈0 or 𝑢𝑘′ (𝑥) = 𝑢𝑘𝑈1 𝑎𝑡 𝑥 = 𝑈

Assume that the trail solution of Eqn.(2.123) is a hyperbolic function of the form. 𝑢𝑘 (𝑥) = 𝐴𝑘 𝑐𝑜𝑠ℎ(𝑏𝑥) + 𝐵𝑘 𝑠𝑖𝑛ℎ(𝑏𝑥)

(2.126)

The constant coefficients 𝐴𝑘 and 𝐵𝑘 are obtained by solving the equations using the boundary conditions Eqns.(2.124) and (2.125) as follows: 𝑢𝑘 (𝐿) = 𝐴𝑘 𝑐𝑜𝑠ℎ(𝑏𝐿) + 𝐵𝑘 𝑠𝑖𝑛ℎ(𝑏𝐿) = 𝑢𝐿0 ,

or 𝑢𝑘′ (𝐿) = 𝑚(𝐴𝑘 𝑐𝑜𝑠ℎ(𝑏𝐿) + 𝐵𝑘 𝑠𝑖𝑛ℎ(𝑏𝐿)) = 𝑢𝐿1 ,

(2.127)

𝑢𝑘 (𝑈) = 𝐴𝑘 𝑐𝑜𝑠ℎ(𝑏𝑈) + 𝐵𝑘 𝑠𝑖𝑛ℎ(𝑏𝑈) = 𝑢𝑈0 , or 𝑢𝑘′ (𝑈) = 𝑚(𝐴𝑘 𝑐𝑜𝑠ℎ(𝑏𝑈) + 𝐵𝑘 𝑠𝑖𝑛ℎ(𝑏𝑈)) = 𝑢𝑈1 ,

(2.128)

The unknown parameter 𝑏can obtain by substituting the Eqn. (2.126) in the original differential Eqn. (2.123) by giving specific value for 𝑥 = 𝐾 where 𝐿 ≤ 𝐾 ≤ 𝑈. 𝑝𝑘 : 𝑓(𝑢𝑘 (𝐾, 𝐴𝑘 , 𝐵𝑘 , 𝑏), 𝑢𝑘′ (𝐾, 𝐴𝑘 , 𝐵𝑘 , 𝑏), 𝑢𝑘″ (𝐾, 𝐴𝑘 , 𝐵𝑘 , 𝑏)) = 0 (2.129) The unknown parameter 𝑏 is obtained by solving the above equation.

where the constants 𝐴, 𝐵 and m are obtained by using boundary condition (Eqns. (2.132) and (2.133)): 𝐴 = 𝐾𝑠∞ sech(𝑚), 𝐵 = 0

(2.135)

Substituting the value of constants into Eqn. (2.134) we find 𝑠(𝑥) = 𝑠𝑒𝑐ℎ(𝑚) 𝑐𝑜𝑠ℎ(𝑚𝑥)

𝑓(𝑥) = 𝑚2 𝑠𝑒𝑐ℎ(𝑚) 𝑐𝑜𝑠ℎ(𝑚𝑥) − 1+𝛼 𝑠𝑒𝑐ℎ(𝑚) 𝑐𝑜𝑠ℎ(𝑚𝑥) = 0 (2.138) Now, substituting 𝑥 = 1 in above equation, we get 𝑘

2.3.8. Taylor Series and Padé Approximation Method 2.3.8.1. Taylor Series Taylor series is a description of a function as an infinite number of terms, determined at a single point from the values of the function’s derivatives. This subject was first formulated by the Scottish mathematician James Gregory and formally introduced by the English mathematician Brook Taylor in 1715. If the Taylor series is centered at zero, then that series is also called a Maclaurin series, after the Scottish mathematician Colin Maclaurin, who made extensive use of this special case of Taylor series in the 18th century. 2.3.8.2. Padé Approximation The Padé approximants are a special type of rational approximation. This technique was invented by Henri Padé around 1890 but goes back to Georg Frobenius, who introduced the concept and characteristics of

46

L. Rajendran, R. Swaminathan and M. Chitra Devi

rational approximations. The Padé approximant also gives the function a better estimate than truncating its Taylor series, and it can also operate where the Taylor series does not converge. Padé approximants are widely used in computer calculations for these purposes. Given a function f and two integers 𝑚 ≥ 0 and 𝑛 ≥ 1, the Padé approximant of an order [𝑚/𝑛] is the rational function 𝑅(𝜒) =

Applying the modified Lindstedt-Poincare method, suppose that the solution of Eqn. (2.201), the constant a and 0, can be expressed in the forms 𝑢 = 𝑢0 + 𝜀𝑢1 + 𝜀 2 𝑢2 + ⋯. 0 = 𝜔2 + 𝜀𝑐1 + 𝜀𝑐2 + ⋯. 𝑎 = 1 + 𝜀𝑚1 + 𝜀𝑚2 +. . ..

2.3.9. Parameterized Perturbation Method He’s (J. He 1999; J. H. He 2000a) applied a parameterized perturbation method to find approximate solutions for nonlinear differential-difference equations. Simple but traditional examples are used to demonstrate the validity of the process and its great prospective. The highly accurate results reveal that the technique is beneficial and straightforward. 𝑢 = 𝜀𝑣 + 𝑏

where 𝜀 is the introduced perturbation parameter, b is a constant. We consider Duffing equation with 3rd order nonlinearity, which reads

Setting 𝑏 = 0 for simplicity, we have the following equation with an artificial parameter 𝜀:

Assume that the solution of Eqn. (2.216) can be written in the form 𝑣 = 𝑣0 + 𝜀𝑣1 + 𝜀 2 𝑣2 + ⋯ (2.217) Unlike the traditional perturbation methods, we keep 𝑣0 (0) = 𝑣(0), 𝑎𝑛𝑑 ∑𝑖=1 𝑣𝑖 (0) = 0

Substituting Eqn. (2.216) in Eqn. (2.217) (𝑣0 + 𝜀𝑣1 + 𝜀 2 𝑣2 )″ + 𝑣0 + 𝜀𝑣1 + 𝜀 2 𝑣2 + 𝛼𝜀 2 (𝑣0 + 𝜀𝑣1 + 𝜀 2 𝑣2 )3 = 0 (2.219) Associating coefficients of like powers of 𝜀 produces the following equations

𝑣2″ + 𝑣2 + 𝛼𝑣03 = 0; 𝑣2 (0) = 0, 𝑣2′ (0) = 0

STEADY AND NON-STEADY STATE REACTION-DIFFUSION EQUATIONS IN PLANE SHEET 3.1. INTRODUCTION Reaction-diffusion equations for the density/concentration/heat of a substance/population in one spatial dimension are considered, where the diffusion coefficient, as well as creation and annihilation terms, are monomials. Diffusion to this surface is effectively planar (the effects of the edges are negligible), hence the system of nonlinear onedimensional reaction-diffusions are given as follows: 𝜕𝑎 𝜕𝑡 𝜕𝑏 𝜕𝑡 𝜕𝑐 𝜕𝑡

=𝐷

𝜕2 𝑎

− 𝑓(𝑎, 𝑏, 𝑐, 𝑡)

(3.1)

𝜕2 𝑐

= 𝐷 𝜕𝑥 2 + ℎ(𝑎, 𝑏, 𝑐, 𝑡)

L. Rajendran, R. Swaminathan and M. Chitra Devi

where 𝑎 = 𝑎(𝑥, 𝑡), 𝑏 = 𝑏(𝑥, 𝑡), 𝑐 = 𝑐(𝑥, 𝑡) are independent state variables and describes density/concentration/ heat of a substance/ population at position 𝑥 ∈ 𝛺 ⊂ 𝑅 𝑛 at time 𝑡 (Ω is a open set). Thus the first term to the right describes the diffusion, including D as the diffusion coefficient. The second term is a smooth function 𝑓, 𝑔, ℎ: 𝑅 → 𝑅 and describes processes that are changing (birth, death, chemical reaction), not just spatially diffuse. Sometimes it is also possible that the second term (reaction term) depends not only on 𝑎 , 𝑏, 𝑐, but also on the first derivative of 𝑎, 𝑏, 𝑐, or explicitly on x.

3.2. CONCENTRATION OF CARBON DIOXIDE (CO2), AND PHENYL GLYCIDYL ETHER SOLUTION (PGE) USING TAYLOR’S SERIES AND PADÉ APPROXIMATION The mass balance equation between the reaction CO2 and phenyl glycidyl ether (PGE) to form the 5-membered cyclic carbonate is given as follows (Choe et al. 2010; Subramaniam, Krishnaperumal, and Lakshmanan 2012): 𝐷𝐴 𝐷𝐵

𝑑 2 𝐶𝐴 𝑑𝑧 2 𝑑 2 𝐶𝐵 𝑑𝑧 2

− 𝑟𝐴 = 0

(3.4)

− 𝑟𝐴 = 0

(3.5)

The reaction rate of CO2 under the condition of a steady state is presented as follows: 𝑟𝐴 =

where 𝑧 is the distance, 𝑧𝐿 is the film thickness, 𝐷𝐴 , 𝐷𝐵 are the diffusivity of CO2 and PGE respectively. Consider the following set of dimensionless variables: 𝑧

where 𝑃 and 𝑆 represent dimensionless concentrations, and 𝑥 is the distance parameter. We get the dimensionless nonlinear equations as follows: 𝑑2 𝑃 𝑑𝜒2 𝑑2 𝑆 𝑑𝜒2

From Eqns. (3.8)-(3.9), we have the following relation 𝑃″ (𝑥) 𝛼1

(3.12)

Solving above equation and using the boundary conditions (Eqns. (3.10)-(3.11)) we obtain, approximation of the PGE concentration as follows

𝑃(𝑥) = 1 + (𝑘 − 1)𝜒 + 𝛼1 ((𝑆(0) − 1)𝜒 − 𝑆(0) + 𝑆(𝑥)) 2

(3.13)

Taylor’s series and Pade approximation method is used to solve nonlinear differential Eqns. (3.8)-(3.11). The basic principle of this method is described in chapter II. A detailed derivation of CO2 from the nonlinear Eqn. (3.8) is described below. The Maclaurin series (Taylor’s series at χ = 0) for the concentration of the substrate is given as follows. 𝑑𝑞 𝑆

(3.15)

Now assume that 𝑆(0) = 𝐴0 = 𝑚 where 𝑚is constant. From the boundary conditions, we get 𝐴1 = 𝑆′(0) = 1. Now from Eqn. (3.9) and using 𝑃(𝜒 = 0) = 1 we get 𝑑2 𝑆

𝐴2 = 𝑆 ″ (0) = 𝑑𝜒2|

Substitute Eqn. (3.16) instead of 𝑆(𝜒), we get 𝑐0 + 𝑐1 𝜒 + 𝑐2 𝜒 2 + 𝑐3 𝜒 3 + 𝑐4 𝜒 4 + 𝑐5 𝜒 5 + }= 𝑐6 𝜒 6 + 𝑐7 𝜒 7 + 𝑐8 𝜒 8 + 𝑐9 𝜒 9 + 𝑐10 𝜒10 𝑎0 +𝑎1 𝜒+𝑎2 𝜒2 +𝑎3 𝜒3 +𝑎4 𝜒4 +𝑎5 𝜒5 1+𝑏1 𝜒+𝑏2 𝜒2 +𝑏3 𝜒3 +𝑏4 𝜒4 +𝑏5 𝜒5

From Eqns. (3.25)-(3.30) we get 𝑎𝑖 , 𝑖 = 0. .5, Solving Eqns. (3.31)(3.35), we get 𝑏𝑖 , 𝑖 = 0. .5. Hence, 𝑎𝑖 𝑎𝑛𝑑 𝑏𝑖 , 𝑖 = 0 to 5 is a function of 𝛼1 , 𝛼2 , 𝛽1 , 𝛽2 , 𝑘 and 𝑚.Using the boundary condition 𝑆(1) = 1 we can find the unknown constant “𝑚.” For example using this method, the analytical expression for the concentrations can be obtained from the above expression for the parameters 𝛼2 = 𝛽1 =1, 𝛼1 = 𝛽2 =0, k = 10 as follows: 1+0.25𝜒 2 +0.375𝜒 3 -0.8334𝜒 4 +2.3156𝜒 5 -6.9045𝜒 6 𝑆(𝜒) = ( )𝑚 +22.1313𝜒 7 -74.5689𝜒 8 +260.7134𝜒 9 -937.8758𝜒 10 (3.36)

Substituting the Pade approximant coefficients values 𝑎𝑗 , ∀𝑗 = 1𝑡𝑜4 and 𝑏𝑗 , ∀𝑗 = 1to 4 in Eqn. (3.36), we get 𝑆(𝜒) =

3.3. ANALYTICAL SOLUTION ONE DIMENSIONAL NONLINEAR PARABOLIC PARTIAL DIFFERENTIAL EQUATION IN CHEMICAL SCIENCES In this section, we classify typical reactions for the reactiondiffusion equations, which may appear as terms of “reaction.” If the diffusion is ignored (i.e., spatial effects), they are ODEs. The reaction term depends upon various real-life problems such as population predator-prey, competition, symbiosis, chemical reactions. The examples of the above types are given in ref (Kuttler, Christina 2011). Unusually for a chemical reaction, this term depends upon reversible, irreversible, Michalis-Menten, Non-Michael-Menten kinetics, etc. Various methods for solving these nonlinear equations are discussed with examples in the previous chapter-2. In Table 3.1 and 3.2, the recent contribution to mathematical modeling of one dimensional nonsteady and steady state reaction-diffusion equations with various reaction mechanisms and enzymatic scheme with corresponding nonlinear equations and its solutions are given respectively.

4.3. ANALYTICAL SOLUTION OF VARIOUS NONLINEAR BOUNDARY VALUE PROBLEMS IN CYLINDRICAL COORDINATES The Cartesian coordinate system provides a simple way to describe where points in space are located. However, certain surfaces can be challenging to model with the Cartesian system. There are two different ways of defining the position of space points, both of which are based on polar coordinate extensions. As the name suggests, cylindrical coordinates are useful for handling cylinder-shaped problems. Similarly, spherical coordinates are helpful when dealing with sphererelated issues. Microelectrodes are one of the essential tools in electrochemical research (Le, Kätelhön, and Compton 2020). Microcylinder electrodes, mostly in the form of microwire electrodes, are commonly used by microelectrodes (Molina et al. 2015; Chen, Lin, and Compton 2018) because of their low cost and ease of manufacturing process. Cylindrical electrodes, one micro dimension (the radius), and one macro size (the length) play an essential role in diverse research areas, including environmental sensors (Privett, Shin, and Schoenfisch 2010), medical diagnosis(Harfield, Batchelor-McAuley, and Compton 2012), and nano-impact studies (Li, Batchelor-McAuley, and Compton 2019). Various theoretical studies (Aoki et al. 1985) have modeled the current responses of infinitely long cylindrical electrodes. Tables 4.1-4.2 provides a recent contribution to the mathematical methods of nonsteady and steady state reaction- diffusion equations in cylindrical coordinate systems.

In dimensionless form, the differential Eqns. (5.5) and (5.6) becomes (Femila Mercy Rani, Sevukaperumal, and Rajendran 2015): 1 𝑑 𝜌2 𝑑𝜌

(𝜌2 𝑑𝜌) − 𝜑 𝛼+𝑆 = 0

(5.9)

where 𝑆 is the normalized substrate concentration and 𝜌 is the dimensionless radial coordinate and 𝜑 and 𝛼 are the dimensionless parameters. The boundary conditions are represented as follows (Femila Mercy Rani, Sevukaperumal, and Rajendran 2015): 𝜌 = 0;

𝑑𝑆 𝑑𝜌

𝜌 = 1; 𝑆 = 1

(5.11)

Our goal is to apply the MADM (George Adomian 1994; G. E. Adomian and Adomian 1984; G Adomian 1976) to the model, under steady-state conditions Eqn. (5.9) can be takes the following form for spherical particle, we first write the Eqn. (5.9) in operator form 𝐿(𝑆) = 𝜑𝑁(𝑆)

(5.12)

where 𝐿 = 𝜌−1 𝑑𝜌2 𝜌 and 𝑁(𝑆) = 𝛼+𝑆. Where the inverse operator is given by 𝜌

(5.13)

Applying the above inverse operator on both sides of the Eqn. (5.12) yields 𝑆(𝜌) = 𝑎𝜌 + 𝑏 + 𝜑𝐿−1 (𝑁(𝑆))

where a, b are an integrating constants, which can be obtained from the boundary conditions(5.10) and (5.11) 𝑆(𝜌) = ∑∞ 𝑛=0 𝑆𝑛 (𝜌)

(5.15)

In terms of Adomian polynomials 𝐴𝑛 , the nonlinear term 𝑁(𝑆) can be written as an infinite series. 𝑁(𝑆) = ∑∞ 𝑛=0 𝐴𝑛 (𝜌)

(5.16)

where the Adomian polynomials 𝐴𝑛 is 1 𝑑𝑛

𝑛 𝐴𝑛 = 𝑛! 𝑑𝜆𝑛 𝑁(∑∞ 𝑛=0(𝜆 𝑆𝑛 ))|

𝜆=0

(5.17)

where 𝜆 ∈ [0,1] is a hypothetical parameter. Substituting Eqns.(5.15) and (5.16) in (5.14) gives −1 ∑∞ ∑∞ 𝑛=0 𝑆𝑛 (𝜌) = 𝑎𝜌 + 𝑏 + 𝜑𝐿 𝑛=0 𝐴𝑛

(5.18)

By equating the terms in the linear system of Eqn. (5.18), we obtain the following recurrence formula: 𝑆0 (𝜌) = 𝑎𝜌 + 𝑏

(5.19)

𝑆𝑛+1 (𝜌) = 𝜑𝐿−1 (𝐴𝑛 ) ; n ≥ 0

(5.20)

where 𝐴𝑛 are the Adomian polynomials of𝑆0 , 𝑆1 , 𝑆2 , 𝑆3 , … , 𝑆𝑛 . We can find the first few𝐴𝑛 as follows: 𝑆

We identify the zeroth component as 𝑆0 (𝜌) = 𝑎𝜌 + 𝑏

(5.23)

The initial approximations (Boundary conditions Eqns. (5.10) and (5.11) are as follows: 𝑑𝑆0

Solving the Eqn. (5.23) using the boundary conditions (Eqns.(5.24) and (5.25)), we get 𝑆0 = 1

(5.26)

To obtain 𝑆1 , 𝑆2 we substitute Eqn. (5.21)and (5.22) in (5.20) then, we get 1

The Eqn. (5.30) is the new closed form of analytical expressions of a concentration of the substrate 𝑆(𝜌) for all values of the parameter. The obtained analytical solution is compared with numerical simulation result (Matlab coding) for various values of parameter 𝜑 and 𝛼 in Figures 5.1-5.2. An acceptable agreement is noted.

5.3. ANALYTICAL SOLUTION OF VARIOUS NONLINEAR BOUNDARY VALUE PROBLEMS IN SPHERICAL COORDINATES Nonlinear partial differential equations (PDEs) in spherical coordinate play an essential role in describing many physical, industrial, and biological processes. Their solutions could be considerably facilitated by using appropriate coordinate transformations. Nonlinear reaction-diffusion in spherical coordinates occurs in Lithium-ion battery (Zeng 2015), Ultramicroelectrodes (Molina et al. 2010; Athimoolam, Lakshmanan, and Alwarappan 2011; A. Eswari and Rajendran 2011), Glucose enzyme reaction (Saranya et al. 2018) and hydrology (Mortensen et al. 2012). Particularly in electrochemistry, the nonlinear term depends upon reversible, irreversible, Michalis-Menten, and non-Michael-Menten kinetics, etc. Various methods for solving these nonlinear equations are discussed with examples in the chapter-2. The latest contribution of steady and non-steady state reaction-diffusion processes in spherical coordinates in physical chemistry with distinct reaction mechanisms and experimental techniques with the corresponding solutions is given in Table-5.2 and 5.3.

NONLINEAR CONVECTION-DIFFUSION PROBLEMS 6.1. INTRODUCTION The convection-diffusion equation provides a beneficial and vital mathematical model in natural sciences and engineering (Mickens 1999). These applications include air transport, soil pollutant adsorption, neutron dispersion, food manufacturing, a stream of drilling fluids, and charged species reactants etc. Convection diffusion process also occurs in the modelling of biological, chemical systems and semiconductors. This equation is called the drift – diffusion equation in semiconductor physics. The formulation of the convection-diffusion-reaction is divided into three stages (Makungu, Haario, and Mahera 2012). (i). The first process is called convection, which is due to material movement from one place to another. (ii). The second phase is called diffusion, which is due to transferring materials from the high concentration region to a low concentration region. (iii). The final process is called reaction and is induced by decay, adsorption, and the reaction of substances with other

components (Makungu, Haario, and Mahera 2012). This equation takes the general form 𝜕𝑐 𝜕𝑡

= 𝐷𝛻. (𝛻𝑐) − 𝛻. (𝑉𝐶 ) + 𝑅

(6.1)

In the above equation c is the concentration of species for mass transfer or temperature for heat transfer. D denotes the coefficient of diffusions or thermal diffusivity. V is the velocity, and it is a function of space and time. R describes sources or sinks of the quantity. It is a nonlinear term. ∇2 is the Laplacian opreator and ∇c represents the gradient of the concentration. For steady-state conditions the above equation becomes 𝐷𝛻. (𝛻𝐶) + 𝛻. (𝑉𝐶 ) − 𝑅(𝐶) = 0

(6.2)

when the reaction term 𝑅 = 0, and velocity is 𝑉 = 𝑎𝑥 2 , the equation becomes 𝑑2 𝐶 𝑑𝑥 2

𝑑𝐶

6.3. NONLINEAR CONVECTION DIFFUSION EQUATIONS AND CORRESPONDING ANALYTICAL SOLUTIONS IN VARIOUS FIELDS OF CHEMICAL SCIENCES Nonlinear convection – diffusion equations with nonlinear sources are used to describe several physical, mechanical and biological processes and phenomena (Kudryashov and Sinelshchikov 2017). The equation convection-diffusion is a reasonably simple equation which describes flows or describes a system which changes stochastically. Therefore, in certain ways, the same or identical equation occurs similar to space flows. This equation is specifically connected to the Black – Scholes equation, Navier – Stokes equations, and Fokker-Planck equation. Tables 6.1 and 6.2 provide a recent contribution to mathematical modeling of non-steady state and steady state convectiondiffusion equations in the chemical and physical sciences respectively.

7.6. NUMERICAL SIMULATION Numerical simulations are required to study the behavior of systems and to check the accuracy of the obtained approximate analytical solution (Eqn. (7.30)). Thus the differential equations (Eqns. (7.6) and (7.7)) are run on a computer following a program known as bvp4c (Program-2), which is a finite-difference code that implements the three-stage Lobatto IIIA formula included in the influential MATLAB software package. Figures 7.1-7.3 show a comparison between the approximate analytical results and numerical data for the concentration oxidized mediator for various values of parameters. A satisfactory agreement is noted. Programme 1: Matlab program to find the sum of the series of Eqn. (7.30) function u=u(x) t=1; x=linspace(0,1); % x denotes rho ust0=0; for n=0:1:1000; gamma=1; ust0=ust0+((1)^(n)*(n+1/2)*cos((n+1/2)*pi*x))/(((n+1/2)^2*pi^2+sqrt(gamma)))*e xp((-(n+1/2)^2*pi^2-sqrt(gamma))*t); end uss=cosh(sqrt(gamma)*x)./(cosh(sqrt(gamma))); ust=((2*pi)*ust0); u=uss-ust; plot(x,u,’b’) ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
