Decay of solutions of some degenerate hyperbolic equations of Kirchhoff type

Barbara Szomolay (2003)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

In this paper we study the asymptotic behavior of solutions to the damped, nonlinear vibration equation with self-interaction u ¨ = - γ u ˙ + m ( u 2 ) Δ u - δ | u | α u + f , which is known as degenerate if m ( · ) 0 , and non-degenerate if m ( · ) m 0 > 0 . We would like to point out that, to the author’s knowledge, exponential decay for this type of equations has been studied just for the special cases of α . Our aim is to extend the validity of previous results in [5] to α 0 both to the degenerate and non-degenerate cases of m . We extend our results to equations with...

Decay rates of Volterra equations on ℝN

Monica Conti, Stefania Gatti, Vittorino Pata (2007)

Open Mathematics

This note is concerned with the linear Volterra equation of hyperbolic type t t u ( t ) - α Δ u ( t ) + 0 t μ ( s ) Δ u ( t - s ) d s = 0 on the whole space ℝN. New results concerning the decay of the associated energy as time goes to infinity were established.

Derivation of the Reynolds equation for lubrication of a rotating shaft

Antonija Duvnjak, Eduard Marušić-Paloka (2000)

Archivum Mathematicum

In this paper, using the asymptotic expansion, we prove that the Reynolds lubrication equation is an approximation of the full Navier–Stokes equations in thin gap between two coaxial cylinders in relative motion. Boundary layer correctors are computed. The error estimate in terms of domain thickness for the asymptotic expansion is given. The corrector for classical Reynolds approximation is computed.

Development of small and large compressive pulses in two-phase flow

Nishi Deepa Palo, Jasobanta Jena, Meera Chadha (2024)

Applications of Mathematics

The evolutions of small and large compressive pulses are studied in a two-phase flow of gas and dust particles with a variable azimuthal velocity. The method of relatively undistorted waves is used to study the mechanical pulses of different types in a rotational, axisymmetric dusty gas. The results obtained are compared with that of nonrotating medium. Asymptotic expansion procedure is used to discuss the nonlinear theory of geometrical acoustics. The influence of the solid particles and the rotational...

Diffusion limit of the Lorentz model : asymptotic preserving schemes

Christophe Buet, Stéphane Cordier, Brigitte Lucquin-Desreux, Simona Mancini (2002)

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

This paper deals with the diffusion limit of a kinetic equation where the collisions are modeled by a Lorentz type operator. The main aim is to construct a discrete scheme to approximate this equation which gives for any value of the Knudsen number, and in particular at the diffusive limit, the right discrete diffusion equation with the same value of the diffusion coefficient as in the continuous case. We are also naturally interested with a discretization which can be used with few velocity discretization...
