Advanced Statistical Approach for the Mathematical Modeling of Transfer Processes in a Layer Based on Experimental Data at the Boundary

Abstract

In this work, a mathematical model of the transfer process in a layer under the condition of given experimental data on a part of the layer boundary is presented and investigated. Such research is important for the mathematical description of the objects and systems for which, based on physical considerations, it is impossible to correctly impose boundary or initial conditions, even in a sufficiently general form, but there are experimental data on the desired function or its derivative at the boundary of the body or at the initial time. The values of the desired function at the boundary are known at certain moments in time. The boundary condition is constructed by the experimental data and the initial-boundary value problem, with such a boundary condition, is formulated and solved. The influence of the statistical characteristics of the sample of experimental data on the solution to the initial-boundary value problem is analyzed, and a two-sided statistical estimation of the solution is determined. The confidence intervals for the coefficients of the regression equation and the corresponding confidence intervals for the sought function are established. The influence of the statistical characteristics of the sample on the sought function at the lower boundary of the layer is investigated. Numerical analysis of the solution to the initial-boundary value problem is carried out depending on the statistical characteristics of the sample. Various cases of samples by size and variance are considered. Numerical solutions are studied under the conditions of large and small time intervals of the considered process.
