calculus and analysis - Residue failed to reproduce this residue in a paper


This problem is a more clearly state of my original problem which is off topic, so I reconsider my problem carefully based on previous discussions, and gives the following valid code to reproduce my problem with all the necessary information.


I use Mathematica to confirm a result from a paper Unsteady unidirectional flow of Bingham fluid between parallel plates with different given volume flow rate conditions which is to calculate the residue of a expression at zero.



  1. Reproduce of my problem:



The following code shows my efforts, but failed to reproduce the analytical solution (resAna in the code) in the papaer.


ClearAll["Global`*"]

varCons = {ν > 0, up > 0, h > h0 >= 0, h > y >= 0};
m = Sqrt[s]/Sqrt[ν];
Δ = Sinh[m h] Sinh[m h0] - Cosh[m h] Cosh[m h0];
Ξ = Cosh[m h0] (Sinh[m h] - Sinh[m h0]) - Sinh[m h0] (Cosh[m h] - Cosh[m h0]);
Ω = (m h (Δ + Cosh[m h0] Cosh[m y] - Sinh[m h0] Sinh[m y]))/(m h Δ +
m h0 (Cosh[m h0]^2 - Sinh[m h0]^2) + Ξ);

u = FullSimplify[up/(t0 s^2) Ω E^(s t), varCons];

Residue[u, {s, 0}]
(* this failed gives the desired 'resAna' as below *)

X1 = (1/6 (h^3 - y^3) h0 + 1/6 (h - y) h0^3 - 1/4 (h^2 - y^2) h0^2 -1/24 (h^4 - y^4)) (1/ν)^(5/2);
X2 = ((h - y) h0 - 1/2 (h^2 - y^2)) t (1/ν)^(3/2);
X3 = (h^5/30 - (h^4 h0)/8 + (h^3 h0^2)/6 - (h^2 h0^3)/4 + (21 h0^5)/120) (1/2 (h^2 - y^2) - (h - y) h0)/(h0^3/6 - (h0 h^2)/2 + h^3/3) (1/ν)^(5/2);
resAna = -((up h)/t0) (X1 + X2 + X3)/((h0^3/6 - (h0 h^2)/2 + h^3/3) (1/ν)^(3/2));
(* resAna is the analytical solution in the paper *)

NResidue seems works after given a set of numeric values, but Residue still doesn't work


t0 = 1/10;
t = 2 t0;
up = 1/100;
ν = 2/3580;
h = 1/1000;
h0 = h/8;
y = h/9;


Needs["NumericalCalculus`"]
NResidue[u, {s, 0}, WorkingPrecision -> 20, PrecisionGoal -> 20] // Chop

N[resAna, 20]

Residue[u, {s, 0}]

enter image description here 3. I had thought that Residue should work as in this example by @xzczd


ClearAll["Global`*"]

r = 1;
f[p_, ξ_] = -(5 p Sqrt[(5 p^2)/6 + ξ^2])/(4 (-4 ξ^2 Sqrt[(5 p^2)/6 + ξ^2] Sqrt[(5 p^2)/2 + ξ^2] + ((5 p^2)/2 + 2 ξ^2)^2));
poles = p /. Simplify[Solve[Denominator[f[p, ξ]] == 0, p], ξ > 0]
Residue[f[p, ξ], {p, #}] & /@ poles;
Simplify[%, ξ > 0] // N

Answer




I. A summary for the failing trial






  1. Residue can't calculate the residue of u directly. (It's hard to tell whether it's a bug or not, Residue never promises he will calculate every known residue, anyway.)




  2. SeriesCoefficient won't give desired answer in the following case:


    SeriesCoefficient[u, {s, 0, -1}]

    enter image description here


    If it gave the desired answer, we would be able to calculate the residue by finding Laurent series expansions.





  3. Limit won't give desired answer in the following case:


    Limit[D[s^2 u, s], s -> 0]

    If it gave the desired answer, we would be able to calculate the residue with limit formula.





II. Solution




By observing the structure of undesired output of SeriesCoefficient and u


enter image description here


I guess that maybe it's the $\sqrt{\nu}$ term that causes trouble, so I tried adding the known constraint $\nu>0$ to SeriesCoefficient and Limit, and they give the desired answer then:


resAnaTrue = 
Simplify[SeriesCoefficient[u, {s, 0, -1}, Assumptions -> ν > 0], ν > 0];

resAnaTrue2 = Limit[D[s^2 u, s], s -> 0, Assumptions -> ν > 0]
(* -(h up (h - y) (h - 2 h0 + y) (2 h^3 - 6 h^2 h0 -
2 h (2 h0^2 - 10 h0 y + 5 y^2 + 60 t ν) -
h0 (7 h0^2 - 10 h0 y + 5 y^2 + 60 t ν)))/(20 (h - h0)^2 (2 h + h0)^2 t0 ν) *)


resAnaTrue == resAnaTrue2 // Simplify
(* True *)


III. The formula given in the paper is incorrect



Let's first check the result with the parameters given by you:


para = {t0 -> 1/10, t -> 2 t0, up -> 1/100, ν -> 2/3580, h -> 1/1000, h0 -> h/8, y -> h/9};
ref = NResidue[u //. para, {s, 0}, WorkingPrecision -> 64];

rst1 = N[resAna //. para, 64];
rst2 = N[resAnaTrue //. para, 64];
ref - rst1
(* -2.9855303465924184799970408331399786805478493918575833694822*10^-7 *)
ref - rst2
(* 0.*10^-66 *)

As one can see, the precision of the new derived formula is desired, while there's a significant difference (approximately 3*10^-7) between the formula given in the paper and numeric result.


With the following set of parameter, the difference will be even clearer:


para2 = {ν -> 1/2, h0 -> 1, h -> 3, t0 -> 1/5, up -> 1/5, y -> 1/3, t -> 5};

ref = NResidue[u /. para2, {s, 0}];
rst1 = N[resAna /. para2];
rst2 = N[resAnaTrue /. para2];
ref - rst1
(* -0.653061 + 1.22133*10^-13 I *)
ref - rst2
(* 9.76996*10^-15 + 1.22133*10^-13 I *)

Apparently the formula in the paper is wrong.

mathematical optimization - Minimizing using indices, error: Part::pkspec1: The expression cannot be used as a part specification

I want to use Minimize where the variables to minimize are indices pointing into an array. Here a MWE that hopefully shows what my problem is. vars = u@# & /@ Range[3]; cons = Flatten@ { Table[(u[j] != #) & /@ vars[[j + 1 ;; -1]], {j, 1, 3 - 1}], 1 vec1 = {1, 2, 3}; vec2 = {1, 2, 3}; Minimize[{Total@((vec1[[#]] - vec2[[u[#]]])^2 & /@ Range[1, 3]), cons}, vars, Integers] The error I get: Part::pkspec1: The expression u[1] cannot be used as a part specification. >> Answer Ok, it seems that one can get around Mathematica trying to evaluate vec2[[u[1]]] too early by using the function Indexed[vec2,u[1]] . The working MWE would then look like the following: vars = u@# & /@ Range[3]; cons = Flatten@{ Table[(u[j] != #) & /@ vars[[j + 1 ;; -1]], {j, 1, 3 - 1}], 1 vec1 = {1, 2, 3}; vec2 = {1, 2, 3}; NMinimize[ {Total@((vec1[[#]] - Indexed[vec2, u[#]])^2 & /@ R...

functions - Get leading series expansion term?

Given a function f[x] , I would like to have a function leadingSeries that returns just the leading term in the series around x=0 . For example: leadingSeries[(1/x + 2)/(4 + 1/x^2 + x)] x and leadingSeries[(1/x + 2 + (1 - 1/x^3)/4)/(4 + x)] -(1/(16 x^3)) Is there such a function in Mathematica? Or maybe one can implement it efficiently? EDIT I finally went with the following implementation, based on Carl Woll 's answer: lds[ex_,x_]:=( (ex/.x->(x+O[x]^2))/.SeriesData[U_,Z_,L_List,Mi_,Ma_,De_]:>SeriesData[U,Z,{L[[1]]},Mi,Mi+1,De]//Quiet//Normal) The advantage is, that this one also properly works with functions whose leading term is a constant: lds[Exp[x],x] 1 Answer Update 1 Updated to eliminate SeriesData and to not return additional terms Perhaps you could use: leadingSeries[expr_, x_] := Normal[expr /. x->(x+O[x]^2) /. a_List :> Take[a, 1]] Then for your examples: leadingSeries[(1/x + 2)/(4 + 1/x^2 + x), x] leadingSeries[Exp[x], x] leadingSeries[(1/x + 2 + (1 - 1/x...

What is and isn't a valid variable specification for Manipulate?

I have an expression whose terms have arguments (representing subscripts), like this: myExpr = A[0] + V[1,T] I would like to put it inside a Manipulate to see its value as I move around the parameters. (The goal is eventually to plot it wrt one of the variables inside.) However, Mathematica complains when I set V[1,T] as a manipulated variable: Manipulate[Evaluate[myExpr], {A[0], 0, 1}, {V[1, T], 0, 1}] (*Manipulate::vsform: Manipulate argument {V[1,T],0,1} does not have the correct form for a variable specification. >> *) As a workaround, if I get rid of the symbol T inside the argument, it works fine: Manipulate[ Evaluate[myExpr /. T -> 15], {A[0], 0, 1}, {V[1, 15], 0, 1}] Why this behavior? Can anyone point me to the documentation that says what counts as a valid variable? And is there a way to get Manpiulate to accept an expression with a symbolic argument as a variable? Investigations I've done so far: I tried using variableQ from this answer , but it says V[1...
