Transizioni di fase ed isteresi

Augusto Visintin (2000)

Bollettino dell'Unione Matematica Italiana

L'attività di ricerca di chi scrive si è finora indirizzata principalmente verso l'esame dei modelli di transizione di fase, dei modelli di isteresi, e delle relative equazioni non lineari alle derivate parziali. Qui si illustrano brevemente tali problematiche, indicando alcuni degli elementi che le collegano tra di loro. Il lavoro è organizzato come segue. I paragrafi 1, 2, 3 vertono sulle transizioni di fase: si introducono le formulazioni forte e debole del classico modello di Stefan, e si illustrano...

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.

Travelling Waves of Fast Cryo-chemical Transformations in Solids (Non-Arrhenius Chemistry of the Cold Universe)

V. Barelko, N. Bessonov, G. Kichigina, D. Kiryukhin, A. Pumir, V. Volpert (2008)

Mathematical Modelling of Natural Phenomena

Propagation of chemical waves at very low temperatures, observed experimentally [V.V. Barelko et al., Advances in Chem. Phys. 74 (1988), 339-384.] at velocities of order  10 cm/s, is due to a very non- standard physical mechanism. The energy liberated by the chemical reaction induces destruction of the material, thereby facilitating the reaction, a process very different from standard combustion. In this work we present recent experimental results and develop a new mathematical model which takes...

Two-stage stochastic programming approach to a PDE-constrained steel production problem with the moving interface

Lubomír Klimeš, Pavel Popela, Tomáš Mauder, Josef Štětina, Pavel Charvát (2017)

Kybernetika

The paper is concerned with a parallel implementation of the progressive hedging algorithm (PHA) which is applicable for the solution of stochastic optimization problems. We utilized the Message Passing Interface (MPI) and the General Algebraic Modelling System (GAMS) to concurrently solve the scenario-related subproblems in parallel manner. The standalone application combining the PHA, MPI, and GAMS was programmed in C++. The created software was successfully applied to a steel production problem...

Unconditional nonlinear exponential stability in the Bénard problem for a mixture: necessary and sufficient conditions

Giuseppe Mulone, Salvatore Rionero (1998)

Atti della Accademia Nazionale dei Lincei. Classe di Scienze Fisiche, Matematiche e Naturali. Rendiconti Lincei. Matematica e Applicazioni

The Lyapunov direct method is applied to study nonlinear exponential stability of a basic motionless state to imposed linear temperature and concentration fields of a binary fluid mixture heated and salted from below, in the Oberbeck-Boussinesq scheme. Stress-free and rigid surfaces are considered and absence of Hopf bifurcation is assumed. We prove the coincidence of the linear and (unconditional) nonlinear critical stability limits, when the ratio between the Schmidt and the Prandtl numbers is...

Variational convergence of nonlinear diffusion equations: applications to concentrated capacity problems with change of phase

Giuseppe Savaré, Augusto Visintin (1997)

Atti della Accademia Nazionale dei Lincei. Classe di Scienze Fisiche, Matematiche e Naturali. Rendiconti Lincei. Matematica e Applicazioni

We study a variational formulation for a Stefan problem in two adjoining bodies, when the heat conductivity of one of them becomes infinitely large. We study the «concentrated capacity» model arising in the limit, and we justify it by an asymptotic analysis, which is developed in the general framework of the abstract evolution equations of monotone type.
