The problem of data assimilation for soil water movement

François-Xavier Le Dimet, Victor Petrovich Shutyaev, Jiafeng Wang, Mu Mu (2004)

ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations

The soil water movement model governed by the initial-boundary value problem for a quasilinear 1-D parabolic equation with nonlinear coefficients is considered. The generalized statement of the problem is formulated. The solvability of the problem is proved in a certain class of functional spaces. The data assimilation problem for this model is analysed. The numerical results are presented.

The relation between the porous medium and the eikonal equations in several space dimensions.

Pierre-Louis Lions, Panagiotis E. Souganidis, Juan Luis Vázquez (1987)

Revista Matemática Iberoamericana

We study the relation between the porous medium equation ut = Δ(um), m > 1, and the eikonal equation vt = |Dv|2. Under quite general assumtions, we prove that the pressure and the interface of the solution of the Cauchy problem for the porous medium equation converge as m↓1 to the viscosity solution and the interface of the Cauchy problem for the eikonal equation. We also address the same questions for the case of the Dirichlet boundary value problem.

Travelling waves for gas-solid reactions.

C. J. Van Duijn, A. Straathof (1994)

Revista Matemática de la Universidad Complutense de Madrid

Bounded traveling waves, arising in combustion model for gas-solid reactions in a porous medium, are studied. We consider the existence, uniqueness and several qualitative properties. In particular we investigate waves with finiteness and derive estimates in the limit of vanishing diffusion.

Two problems in homogenization of porous media.

Jesús Ildefonso Díaz (1999)

Extracta Mathematicae

The main goal of this work is to present two different problems arising in Fluid Dynamics of perforated domains or porous media. The first problem concerns the compressible flow of an ideal gas through a porous media and our goal is the mathematical derivation of Darcy's law. This is relevant in oil reservoirs, agriculture, soil infiltration, etc. The second problem deals with the incompressible flow of a fluid reacting with the exterior of many packed solid particles. This is related with absorption...
