A numerical solution of the incompressible, two-dimensional, time-dependent Navier-Stokes equations, which is implicit in time as well as space, has been developed for the case of a uniform flow past a body with rectangular boundaries undergoing pitch oscillations. The Navier-Stokes equations are written in the form of the vorticity equation and the Poisson equation for the stream function, thus using the vorticity and stream function as dependent variables, rather than the velocity components and the pressure. The equations are written in a moving coordinate system fixed with respect to the oscillating body, which undergoes pitch oscillations about an arbitrary axis. (Author).

Perturbed functional iterations (PFI) is a large‐scale nonlinear system solver. Nature is abundant with events simulated mathematically by nonlinear systems of equations and inequalities. These we call nonlinear models. Often, they are ill‐conditioned, meaning small changes in data causing huge changes in the output. PFI, previously called the perturbed iterative scheme (PIS), is a numerical method to solve nonlinear systems of equations in multidimensional space. Computational results demonstrate that this numerical method has some unique features, which have made it more practical for applications in engineering and applied mathematics. This book will guide readers in the proper use of PFI, both in theoretical and practical settings. Features: Ideal resource for postgraduates and professional researchers in science and engineering working in nonlinear systems Algorithmically simple enough for engineers and applied scientists to write their own software based on the contents
