The proposed approach combines the complementary strengths of physics-informed neural networks (PINNs) and boundary integrated neural networks (BINNs) through a solution decomposition strategy. Specifically, PINNs are employed to approximate the particular solution associated with the source term, whereas BINNs are utilized to reconstruct the remaining homogeneous solution from boundary information. The proposed decomposition technique completely removes the domain integrals from the boundary integral equation and transforms the original inhomogeneous problem into a homogeneous one. By eliminating the need for domain discretization in the homogeneous solution reconstruction, the proposed framework preserves the truly boundary-type character of BINNs and provides an efficient and flexible alternative for solving complex three-dimensional acoustic problems. Numerical results demonstrate that the proposed method is accurate, efficient, and robust for both bounded and unbounded three-dimensional acoustic problems.","PeriodicalId":55497,"journal":{"name":"Applied Mathematics Letters","volume":"43 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.7,"publicationDate":"2026-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148883786","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"数学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Under standard regularity hypotheses on the quasi-periodic driving term and a generalized infinite-dimensional Hörmander condition on the degenerate noise, we establish global pathwise well-posedness of probabilistic solutions, and verify uniformly with respect to the initial time and the time symbol a Lyapunov structure, an asymptotic strong Feller-type gradient estimate, and a weak irreducibility property. Combining these ingredients via a non-autonomous Harris theorem, we obtain exponential contraction of the two-parameter transition family in a weighted Wasserstein distance and the existence and uniqueness of a quasi-periodic invariant measure. Our framework unifies the ergodic and mixing analysis for non-autonomous stochastic fluid PDEs with degenerate forcing, while relying on substantially weaker technical assumptions compared to previous works.","PeriodicalId":55497,"journal":{"name":"Applied Mathematics Letters","volume":"491 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.7,"publicationDate":"2026-08-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148883790","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"数学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This work proposes a novel scaled-coordinate transformation BEM (SCT-BEM) for 3D elasticity, which inherits the SCT framework recently developed for potential and heat transfer problems. The proposed SCT-BEM transforms the elasticity domain integrals into low-dimensional boundary integrals without invoking particular solutions or volume discretization. Further, a unified treatment is provided for weakly- and strongly-integrals using an SCT-based coordinate translation. Numerical examples demonstrate that the proposed framework significantly improves the applicability of BEM to complex elasticity problems while preserving its fundamental advantages.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":55497,"journal":{"name":"Applied Mathematics Letters","volume":"177 ","pages":"Article 109875"},"PeriodicalIF":2.8,"publicationDate":"2026-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"146014828","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"数学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
