Transport Equation Reduction for a Mathematical Model in Plant Growth

S. Boujena, A. Chiboub, J. Pousin (2011)

Mathematical Modelling of Natural Phenomena

In this article a variational reduction method, how to handle the case of heterogenous domains for the Transport equation, is presented. This method allows to get rid of the restrictions on the size of time steps due to the thin parts of the domain. In the thin part of the domain, only a differential problem, with respect to the space variable, is to be approximated numerically. Numerical results are presented with a simple example. The variational...

Transport equations with partially B V velocities

Nicolas Lerner (2004)

Annali della Scuola Normale Superiore di Pisa - Classe di Scienze

We prove the uniqueness of weak solutions for the Cauchy problem for a class of transport equations whose velocities are partially with bounded variation. Our result deals with the initial value problem t u + X u = f , u | t = 0 = g , where X is the vector fieldwith a boundedness condition on the divergence of each vector field a 1 , a 2 . This model was studied in the paper [LL] with a W 1 , 1 regularity assumption replacing our B V hypothesis. This settles partly a question raised in the paper [Am]. We examine the details of the argument of...

Transport in a molecular motor system

Michel Chipot, Stuart Hastings, David Kinderlehrer (2004)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis - Modélisation Mathématique et Analyse Numérique

Intracellular transport in eukarya is attributed to motor proteins that transduce chemical energy into directed mechanical energy. This suggests that, in nonequilibrium systems, fluctuations may be oriented or organized to do work. Here we seek to understand how this is manifested by quantitative mathematical portrayals of these systems.

Transport optimal et courbure de Ricci

Cédric Villani (2005/2006)

Séminaire de théorie spectrale et géométrie

Des liens inattendus ont été récemment mis à jour entre le transport optimal de Monge–Kantorovich et certains problèmes de géométrie riemannienne, en liaison avec la courbure de Ricci. Une des retombées de ces interactions est la naissance d’une théorie « synthétique » des espaces métriques mesurés à courbure de Ricci minorée, venant compléter la théorie classique des espaces métriques à courbure sectionnelle minorée. Dans ce texte (également fourni aux actes du Séminaire d’Équations aux dérivées...

Transport optimal et courbure de Ricci

Séminaire Équations aux dérivées partielles

Des liens inattendus ont été récemment mis à jour entre le transport optimal de Monge–Kantorovich et certains problèmes de géométrie riemannienne, en liaison avec la courbure de Ricci. Une des retombées de ces interactions est la naissance d’une théorie “synthétique” des espaces métriques mesurés à courbure de Ricci minorée, venant compléter la théorie classique des espaces métriqes à courbure sectionnelle minorée.
