How this score is calculated

It is built from checkable properties of the record itself: whether the article has a DOI, how many independent sources confirmed its data, whether the required fields are filled in, and how recent the latest confirmation is. Disagreement between sources and a missing identifier lower it. A value of 80 or above means the record was published without further checking; 60 to 79 means it is published at reduced confidence, with a manual check advisable. A record verified by an editor by hand is never pushed below 90 by a recalculation. This scores our data about the article, not the article itself.

Abstract

It is known that in mathematical modeling of electromagnetic fields in space, the nature of the electromagnetic process is determined by the properties of the environment. If the mediumis non-conducting, then we obtain multidimensional hyperbolic equations. If the medium has high conductivity, then we come to multidimensional parabolic equations.Consequently, the analysis of electromagnetic fields in complex media (for example, if the conductivity of the medium changes) is reduced to multidimensional hyperbolic-parabolic equations.It is also known that vibrations of elastic membranes in space according to Hamilton’s principle can be modeled by multidimensional hyperbolic equations.The study of the process of heat propagation in a medium filled with mass leads to multidimensional parabolic equations.Consequently, studying the mathematical modeling of the heat propagation process in vibrating elastic membranes, we also come to multidimensional hyperbolic-parabolic equations.When studying these applications, it becomes necessary to obtain an explicit representation ofthe solutions of the problems under study.Boundary value problems for hyperbolic-parabolic equations in the plane are well-explored, but their multidimensional analogues have been studied very little. The Tricomi problem for the above equations has been previously investigated on a plane, but far as is known, this problem in space has not been analyzed. In this paper, we show that for the multidimensional model mixed hyperbolic-parabolic equation, the Tricomi problem is non-uniquely solvable. An explicit form of this solution is provided.
