A reduced model for Darcy’s problem in networks of fractures

Luca Formaggia, Alessio Fumagalli, Anna Scotti, Paolo Ruffo (2014)

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

Similarity:

Subsurface flows are influenced by the presence of faults and large fractures which act as preferential paths or barriers for the flow. In literature models were proposed to handle fractures in a porous medium as objects of codimension 1. In this work we consider the case of a network of intersecting fractures, with the aim of deriving physically consistent and effective interface conditions to impose at the intersection between fractures. This new model accounts for the angle between...

A predictive method allowing the use of a single ionic model in numerical cardiac electrophysiology

M. Rioux, Y. Bourgault (2013)

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

Similarity:

One of the current debate about simulating the electrical activity in the heart is the following: Using a realistic anatomical setting, realistic geometries, fibres orientations, etc., is it enough to use a simplified 2-variable phenomenological model to reproduce the main characteristics of the cardiac action potential propagation, and in what sense is it sufficient? Using a combination of dimensional and asymptotic analysis, together with the well-known Mitchell − Schaeffer model,...

A discrete contact model for crowd motion

Bertrand Maury, Juliette Venel (2011)

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

Similarity:

The aim of this paper is to develop a crowd motion model designed to handle highly packed situations. The model we propose rests on two principles: we first define a spontaneous velocity which corresponds to the velocity each individual would like to have in the absence of other people. The actual velocity is then computed as the projection of the spontaneous velocity onto the set of admissible velocities ( velocities which do not violate the non-overlapping constraint). We describe...

Two shallow-water type models for viscoelastic flows from kinetic theory for polymers solutions

Gladys Narbona-Reina, Didier Bresch (2013)

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

Similarity:

In this work, depending on the relation between the Deborah, the Reynolds and the aspect ratio numbers, we formally derived shallow-water type systems starting from a micro-macro description for non-Newtonian fluids in a thin domain governed by an elastic dumbbell type model with a slip boundary condition at the bottom. The result has been announced by the authors in [G. Narbona-Reina, D. Bresch, Springer Verlag (2010)] and in the present paper, we provide a self-contained description,...

An anti-diffusive Lagrange-Remap scheme for multi-material compressible flows with an arbitrary number of components

Marie Billaud Friess, Samuel Kokh (2012)

ESAIM: Proceedings

Similarity:

We propose a method dedicated to the simulation of interface flows involving an arbitrary number of compressible components. Our task is two-fold: we first introduce a -component flow model that generalizes the two-material five-equation model of [2,3]. Then, we present a discretization strategy by means of a Lagrange-Remap [8,10] approach following the lines of [5,7,12]. The projection step involves an anti-dissipative mechanism derived from [11,12]. This feature allows to prevent...

Stable discretization of a diffuse interface model for liquid-vapor flows with surface tension

Malte Braack, Andreas Prohl (2013)

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

Similarity:

The isothermal Navier–Stokes–Korteweg system is used to model dynamics of a compressible fluid exhibiting phase transitions between a liquid and a vapor phase in the presence of capillarity effects close to phase boundaries. Standard numerical discretizations are known to violate discrete versions of inherent energy inequalities, thus leading to spurious dynamics of computed solutions close to static equilibria (, parasitic currents). In this work, we propose a time-implicit discretization...
