FRCMFD Equations - Version-Locked Form
## FRCMFD Equations — Current Version-Locked Form (May 21, 2026)
Below are the complete, version-locked equations as they stand after Gate 1 verification. All components are now mathematically consistent and numerically validated.
1. Core Field Equation (v2 Spectral-Operator Formulation)
The fundamental field equation for the substrate excitation field Ψ(x, t):
where:
| Symbol | Meaning | Value (Current) |
|---|---|---|
| Ψ | Complex scalar substrate excitation field | Variable |
| v | Propagation speed (assumed c) | 1.0 |
| μ | Restoring coefficient | -1.0 |
| λ | Nonlinear saturation coefficient | 1.0 |
| κ | Source coupling coefficient | 1.0 |
| Ŝ | Spectral operator | -i∂φ |
2. Spectral Operator (Angular Momentum)
For axisymmetric analysis with winding number m:
Under the separable ansatz Ψ = Φ(r,z) ei(mφ - ωt):
Thus the coupling term becomes:
3. Cylindrical Coordinate Representation (Axisymmetric)
For axisymmetric configurations (∂φ = im):
4. Hamiltonian Energy Functional
The conserved Hamiltonian (validated, self-adjoint):
where the weighted inner product is:
and L2D is the discrete cylindrical Laplacian:
5. Equation of Motion (Hamiltonian Gradient)
The acceleration is derived from Ψ·· = -δH / δΨ*:
This matches the energy functional exactly.
6. Discrete Radial Operator (Variational, Self-Adjoint)
On a half-grid with ri = (i + 0.5)Δr and Dirichlet DOF removed:
where:
- Wr = diag(ri Δr) (weight matrix)
- M is the symmetric weak-form matrix:
with face radii ri+1/2 = (i+1)Δr.
Verification: M = Wr Lr is symmetric to machine precision (~ 10-14).
7. Axial Operator (Second-Order Neumann)
For the axial direction with ∂zΨ = 0 at boundaries:
8. 2D Kronecker Product Assembly
The full 2D cylindrical Laplacian:
The 2D weight matrix:
where Wz = diag(Δz).
9. Time Integration (Velocity Verlet)
For Hamiltonian evolution with absorber OFF:
Ψt+Δt = Ψt + Δt Ψ·t+Δt/2
Ψ·t+Δt = Ψ·t+Δt/2 + (Δt/2) Ψ··t+Δt
This scheme is symplectic and second-order accurate.
