Homogenization of a spectral equation with drift in linear transport

Guillaume Bal (2001)

ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations

Similarity:

This paper deals with the homogenization of a spectral equation posed in a periodic domain in linear transport theory. The particle density at equilibrium is given by the unique normalized positive eigenvector of this spectral equation. The corresponding eigenvalue indicates the amount of particle creation necessary to reach this equilibrium. When the physical parameters satisfy some symmetry conditions, it is known that the eigenvectors of this equation can be approximated by the product...

Homogenization of the criticality spectral equation in neutron transport

Grégoire Allaire, Guillaume Bal (2010)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis

Similarity:

We address the homogenization of an eigenvalue problem for the neutron transport equation in a periodic heterogeneous domain, modeling the criticality study of nuclear reactor cores. We prove that the neutron flux, corresponding to the first and unique positive eigenvector, can be factorized in the product of two terms, up to a remainder which goes strongly to zero with the period. One term is the first eigenvector of the transport equation in the periodicity cell. The other...

Determination of the diffusion operator on an interval

Ibrahim M. Nabiev (2014)

Colloquium Mathematicae

Similarity:

The inverse problem of spectral analysis for the diffusion operator with quasiperiodic boundary conditions is considered. A uniqueness theorem is proved, a solution algorithm is presented, and sufficient conditions for the solvability of the inverse problem are obtained.
