Partial Differential Equations (PDEs) and Laws of Physics
Many laws of physics are expressed in terms of partial differential equations
Many types and varieties of partial differential equations.
Often nonlinear. Usually to be solved numerically, with some insight from theory
We have looked at nonlinear hyperbolic conservation laws. One basic class of physical laws.
A broader classification: hyperbolic, parabolic, ellipticThis is not the entire universe of PDEs, but is representative of many.Most common PDEs from physics will be one of these or a combination
Combination: many problems are put together by combining subproblems.
Research Issues
Many PDEs areNonlinearMultiple equations combined (multiphysics)To be solved numericallyMultiscale, meaning that many different length scales are
coupled
Because nonlinear, numerical solutions are neededBecause multiscale, numerical solutions are difficult, and require
large scale computationsBecause multiphysics, accuracy and stability of coupling is important
Hyperbolic EquationsThe wave equation is the basic example of a hyperbolic equation.

Parabolic, Elliptic EquationsHyperbolic processes govern wave motionParabolic equations govern diffusion processes,Elliptic equations govern time independent phenomena,
either hyperbolic or parabolic
Multiphysics: hyperbolic + parabolic (+ elliptic)Some processes are combined wave motion and diffusionSome processes may be time independent, while others are not.
Mathematical theory and numerical methods for parabolic/elliptic arevery different from those for hyperbolic
Since we have two or three types of terms in a single equation, we needmultiple solution methods.
Multiscale (example): parabolic term has small coefficient, important in thin layers only.

Fluid Transport• The Euler equations neglect dissipative
mechanisms• Corrections to the Euler equations are given by
the Navier Stokes equations• These change order and type. The extra terms
involve a second order spatial derivative (Laplacian). Thus the equations become parabolic. Discontinuities are removed, to be replaced by steep gradients. Equations are now parabolic, not hyperbolic. New types of solution algorithms may be needed.

Fluid Transport• Single species
– Viscosity = rate of diffusion of momentum• Driven to momentum or velocity gradients
– Thermal conductivity = rate of diffusion of temperature• Driven by temperature gradients: Fourier’s law
• Multiple species– Mass diffusion = rate of diffusion of a single species in
a mixture• Driven by concentration gradients• Exact theory is very complicated. We consider a simple
approximation: Fickean diffusion
Comments• Why study the Euler equations if the Navier-
Stokes equations are more exact (better)?– Often too expensive to solve the Navier-Stokes
equations numerically– Often the Euler equations are “nearly” right, in that
often the transport coefficients are small, so that the Euler equations provide a useful intellectual framework
– Often the numerical methods have a hybrid character, part reflecting the needs of the hyperbolic terms and part reflecting the needs of the parabolic part.

Proposed Plan on UQ/QMU• Decompose the large complex system into
several subsystems
• UQ/QMU on subsystems
• Assemble UQ/QMU of subsystems to get the UQ/QMU for the full system
• Sub-system analysis goal: UQ/QMU for the essential subsystem --- combustor
Proposed Plan on UQ/QMU (continued)
• Our hypothesis is that an engineered system has a natural decomposition into subsystems, and the safe operation of the full system depends on a limited number of variables in the operation of the subsystems.
• For the scramjet, with its supersonic flow velocity, a natural time like decomposition is achieved, with each subsystem getting information from the previous one and giving it to the next.
• In this context, we hope that the number of variables to be specified at the boundaries between subsystems will be not too large. To show this in the scramjet context will be a research program, and central to the success of our objectives.
• We call the boundaries between the subsystems to be gates. Or rather the boundary and the specification of the criteria to be satisfied there is the gate.
