The change in electric potential due to lightning

William W. Hager, Beyza Caliskan Aslan (2008)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis

The change in the electric potential due to lightning is evaluated. The potential along the lightning channel is a constant which is the projection of the pre-flash potential along a piecewise harmonic eigenfunction which is constant along the lightning channel. The change in the potential outside the lightning channel is a harmonic function whose boundary conditions are expressed in terms of the pre-flash potential and the post-flash potential along the lightning channel. The expression for the...

The discrete compactness property for anisotropic edge elements on polyhedral domains

Ariel Luis Lombardi (2013)

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

We prove the discrete compactness property of the edge elements of any order on a class of anisotropically refined meshes on polyhedral domains. The meshes, made up of tetrahedra, have been introduced in [Th. Apel and S. Nicaise, Math. Meth. Appl. Sci. 21 (1998) 519–549]. They are appropriately graded near singular corners and edges of the polyhedron.

The dynamics of a levitated cylindrical permanent magnet above a superconductor.

Michael Schreiner (2003)

Revista Matemática Complutense

When a permanent magnet is released above a superconductor, it is levitated. This is due to the Meissner-effect, i.e. the repulsion of external magnetic fields within the superconductor. In experiments, an interesting behavior of the levitated magnet can be observed: it might start to oscillate with increasing amplitude and some magnets even reach a continuous rotation. In this paper we develop a mathematical model for this effect and identify by analytical methods as well with finite element simulations...

The polarization in a ferroelectric thin film: local and nonlocal limit problems

Antonio Gaudiello, Kamel Hamdache (2013)

ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations

In this paper, starting from classical non-convex and nonlocal 3D-variational model of the electric polarization in a ferroelectric material, via an asymptotic process we obtain a rigorous 2D-variational model for a thin film. Depending on the initial boundary conditions, the limit problem can be either nonlocal or local.
