A nonlinear oscillatory system described by ordinary differential equations with variable coefficients is considered, in which terms that are linearly dependent on coordinates, velocities and accelerations are explicitly distinguished; nonlinear terms are written as implicit functions of these variables. For the numerical solution of the initial problem described by such a system of differential equations, the one-step Galerkin method is used. At the integration step, unknown functions are represented as a sum of linear functions satisfying the initial conditions and several given correction functions in the form of polynomials of the second and higher degrees with unknown coefficients. The differential equations at the step are satisfied approximately by the Galerkin method on a system of corrective functions. Algebraic equations with nonlinear terms are obtained, which are solved by iteration at each step. From the solution at the end of each step, the initial conditions for the next step are determined.

The corrective functions are taken the same for all steps. In general, 4 or 5 correction functions are used for calculations over long time intervals: in the first set — basic power functions from the 2nd to the 4th or 5th degrees; in the second set — orthogonal power polynomials formed from basic functions; in the third set — special linear-independent polynomials with finite conditions that simplify the “docking” of solutions in the following steps.

Using two examples of calculating nonlinear oscillations of systems with one and two degrees of freedom, numerical studies of the accuracy of the numerical solution of initial problems at various time intervals using the Galerkin method using the specified sets of power-law correction functions are performed. The results obtained by the Galerkin method and the Adams and Runge –Kutta methods of the fourth order are compared. It is shown that the Galerkin method can obtain reliable results at significantly longer time intervals than the Adams and Runge – Kutta methods.

The paper deals with a heat wave motion problem for a degenerate second-order nonlinear parabolic equation with power nonlinearity. The considered boundary condition specifies in a plane the motion equation of the circular zero front of the heat wave. A new numerical-analytical algorithm for solving the problem is proposed. A solution is constructed stepby- step in time using difference time discretization. At each time step, a boundary value problem for the Poisson equation corresponding to the original equation at a fixed time is considered. This problem is, in fact, an inverse Cauchy problem in the domain whose initial boundary is free of boundary conditions and two boundary conditions (Neumann and Dirichlet) are specified on a current boundary (heat wave). A solution of this problem is constructed as the sum of a particular solution to the nonhomogeneous Poisson equation and a solution to the corresponding Laplace equation satisfying the boundary conditions. Since the inhomogeneity depends on the desired function and its derivatives, an iterative solution procedure is used. The particular solution is sought by the collocation method using inhomogeneity expansion in radial basis functions. The inverse Cauchy problem for the Laplace equation is solved by the null field method as applied to a circular domain with a circular hole. This method is used for the first time to solve such problem. The calculation algorithm is optimized by parallelizing the computations. The parallelization of the computations allows us to realize effectively the algorithm on high performance computing servers. The algorithm is implemented as a program, which is parallelized by using the OpenMP standard for the C++ language, suitable for calculations with parallel cycles. The effectiveness of the algorithm and the robustness of the program are tested by the comparison of the calculation results with the known exact solution as well as with the numerical solution obtained earlier by the authors with the use of the boundary element method. The implemented computational experiment shows good convergence of the iteration processes and higher calculation accuracy of the proposed new algorithm than of the previously developed one. The solution analysis allows us to select the radial basis functions which are most suitable for the proposed algorithm.

A numerical method is proposed that approximates the equations of the dynamics of a weakly compressible viscous flow in the presence of a polymer component of the flow. The behavior of the flow under the influence of a static external periodic force in a periodic square cell is investigated. The methodology is based on a hybrid approach. The hydrodynamics of the flow is described by a system of Navier – Stokes equations and is numerically approximated by the linearized Godunov method. The polymer field is described by a system of equations for the vector of stretching of polymer molecules $\bf R$, which is numerically approximated by the Kurganov – Tedmor method. The choice of model relationships in the development of a numerical methodology and the selection of modeling parameters made it possible to qualitatively model and study the regime of elastic turbulence at low Reynolds $Re \sim 10^{-1}$. The polymer solution flow dynamics equations differ from the Newtonian fluid dynamics equations by the presence on the right side of the terms describing the forces acting on the polymer component part. The proportionality coefficient $A$ for these terms characterizes the backward influence degree of the polymers number on the flow. The article examines in detail how the flow and its characteristics change depending on the given coefficient. It is shown that with its growth, the flow becomes more chaotic. The flow energy spectra and the spectra of the polymers stretching field are constructed for different values of $A$. In the spectra, an inertial sub-range of the energy cascade is traced for the flow velocity with an indicator $k \sim −4$, for the cascade of polymer molecules stretches with an indicator $−1.6$.

This paper investigates neural network models and polynomial models based on Chebyshev polynomials for interference compensation. It is shown that the neural network model provides compensation for parasitic interference without the need for parameter tuning, unlike the polynomial model, which requires the selection of optimal delays. The L-BFGS method is applied to both architectures, achieving a compensation level comparable to the LS solution for the polynomial model, with an NMSE result of −23.59 dB and requiring fewer than 2000 iterations, confirming its high efficiency. Additionally, due to the strong generalization ability of neural network architectures, the first-order method for neural networks demonstrates faster convergence compared to the polynomial model. In 20 000 iterations, the neural network model achieves a 0.44 dB improvement in compensation level compared to the polynomial model. In contrast, the polynomial model can only achieve high compensation levels with optimal first-order method parameter tuning, highlighting one of the key advantages of neural network models.

Traditional methods for solving the traveling salesman problem are not effective for high-dimensional problems due to their high computational complexity. One of the most effective ways to solve this problem is the decomposition approach, which includes three main stages: clustering vertices, solving subproblems within each cluster and then merging the obtained solutions into a final solution. This article focuses on the third stage — merging cycles of solving subproblems — since this stage is not always given sufficient attention, which leads to less accurate final solutions of the problem. The paper proposes a new modified Sigal algorithm for merging cycles. To evaluate its effectiveness, it is compared with two algorithms for merging cycles — the method of connecting midpoints of edges and an algorithm based on closeness of cluster centroids. The dependence of quality of solving subproblems on algorithms used for merging cycles is investigated. Sigal’s modified algorithm performs pairwise clustering and minimizes total distance. The centroid method focuses on connecting clusters based on closeness of centroids, and an algorithm using mid-points estimates the distance between mid-points of edges. Two types of clustering — k-means and affinity propagation — were also considered. Numerical experiments were performed using the TSPLIB dataset with different numbers of cities and topologies to test effectiveness of proposed algorithm. The study analyzes errors caused by the order in which clusters were merged, the quality of solving subtasks and number of clusters. Experiments show that the modified Sigal algorithm has the smallest median final distance and the most stable results compared to other methods. Results indicate that the quality of the final solution obtained using the modified Sigal algorithm is more stable depending on the sequence of merging clusters. Improving the quality of solving subproblems usually results in linear improvement of the final solution, but the pooling algorithm rarely affects the degree of this improvement.

The article presents a systematic investigation of the capabilities of the lattice Boltzmann method (LBM) for modeling the propagation of acoustic waves. The study considers the problem of wave propagation from a point harmonic source in an unbounded domain, both in a quiescent medium (Mach number $M=0$) and in the presence of a uniform mean flow ($M=0.2$). Both scenarios admit analytical solutions within the framework of linear acoustics, allowing for a quantitative assessment of the accuracy of the numerical method.

The numerical implementation employs the two-dimensional D2Q9 velocity model and the Bhatnagar – Gross – Krook (BGK) collision operator. The oscillatory source is modeled using Gou’s scheme, while spurious high-order moment noise generated by the source is suppressed via a regularization procedure applied to the distribution functions. To minimize wave reflections from the boundaries of the computational domain, a hybrid approach is used, combining characteristic boundary conditions based on Riemann invariants with perfectly matched layers (PML) featuring a parabolic damping profile.

A detailed analysis is conducted to assess the influence of computational parameters on the accuracy of the method. The dependence of the error on the PML thickness ($L_{\text{PML}}^{}$) and the maximum damping coefficient ($\sigma_{\max}^{}$), the dimensionless source amplitude ($Q'_0$), and the grid resolution is thoroughly examined. The results demonstrate that the LBM is suitable for simulating acoustic wave propagation and exhibits second-order accuracy. It is shown that achieving high accuracy (relative pressure error below $1\,\%$) requires a spatial resolution of at least $20$ grid points per wavelength ($\lambda$). The minimal effective PML parameters ensuring negligible boundary reflections are identified as $\sigma_{\max}^{}\geqslant 0.02$ and $L_{\text{PML}}^{} \geqslant 2\lambda$. Additionally, it is shown that for source amplitudes $Q_0' \geqslant 0.1$, nonlinear effects become significant compared to other sources of error.

This article is dedicated to use of S-spline theory for solving equations in partial derivatives. For example, we consider solution of the Poisson equation. S-spline — is a piecewise-polynomial function. Its coefficients are defined by two states. The first part of coefficients are defined by smoothness of the spline. The second coefficients are determined by least-squares method. According to order of considered polynomial and number of conditions of first and second type we get S-splines with different properties. At this moment we have investigated order 3 S-splines of class C¹ and order 5 S-splines of class C² (they meet conditions of smoothness of order 1 and 2 respectively). We will consider how the order 3 S-splines of class C¹ can be applied for solving equation of Poisson on circle and other areas.

The semiclassical approximation method is applied for solution construction of the Fokker–Planck equation with quadratic nonlocal nonlinearity and various coefficients in models of asset returns estimation. Analitical expressions determining nonlinear evolution operator are obtained in semiclasical approximation.
