New unilateral problems in stratigraphy

Stanislav N. Antontsev, Gérard Gagneux, Robert Luce, Guy Vallet (2006)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis

Similarity:

This work deals with the study of some stratigraphic models for the formation of geological basins under a maximal erosion rate constrain. It leads to introduce differential inclusions of degenerated hyperbolic-parabolic type 0 ∈ ∂ t u - d i v { H ( ∂ t u + E ) ∇ u } , where is the maximal monotonous graph of the Heaviside function and is a given non-negative function. Firstly, we present the new and realistic models and an original mathematical formulation, taking into account the rate constraint in the conservation law,...

Multiscale convergence and reiterated homogenization of parabolic problems

Anders Holmbom, Nils Svanstedt, Niklas Wellander (2005)

Applications of Mathematics

Similarity:

Reiterated homogenization is studied for divergence structure parabolic problems of the form ∂ u ε / ∂ t - div a x , x / ε , x / ε 2 , t , t / ε k ∇ u ε = f . It is shown that under standard assumptions on the function a ( x , y 1 , y 2 , t , τ ) the sequence { u ϵ } of solutions converges weakly in L 2 ( 0 , T ; H 0 1 ( Ω ) ) to the solution u of the homogenized problem ∂ u / ∂ t - div ( b ( x , t ) ∇ u ) = f .

Homogenization of evolution problems for a composite medium with very small and heavy inclusions

Michel Bellieud (2005)

ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations

Similarity:

We study the homogenization of parabolic or hyperbolic equations like ρ ε ∂ n u ε ∂ t n - div ( a ε ∇ u ε ) = f in Ω × ( 0 , T ) + boundary conditions , n ∈ { 1 , 2 } , when the coefficients ρ ε , a ε (defined in Ø ) take possibly high values on a ε -periodic set of grain-like inclusions of vanishing measure. Memory effects arise in the limit problem.

Global and non-global existence of solutions to a nonlocal and degenerate quasilinear parabolic system

Yujuan Chen (2010)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

Similarity:

The paper deals with positive solutions of a nonlocal and degenerate quasilinear parabolic system not in divergence form u t = v p Δ u + a ∫ Ω u d x , v t = u q Δ v + b ∫ Ω v d x with null Dirichlet boundary conditions. By using the standard approximation method, we first give a series of fine a priori estimates for the solution of the corresponding approximate problem. Then using the diagonal method, we get the local existence and the bounds of the solution ( u , v ) to this problem. Moreover, a necessary and sufficient condition for the non-global...

Stabilization of Berger–Timoshenko’s equation as limit of the uniform stabilization of the von Kármán system of beams and plates

Similarity:

We consider a dynamical one-dimensional nonlinear von Kármán model for beams depending on a parameter ε > 0 and study its asymptotic behavior for t large, as ε → 0 . Introducing appropriate damping mechanisms we show that the energy of solutions of the corresponding damped models decay exponentially uniformly with respect to the parameter ε . In order for this to be true the damping mechanism has to have the appropriate scale with respect to ε . In the limit as ε → 0 we obtain damped Berger–Timoshenko...
