Convective Instability of Reaction Fronts in Porous Media

K. Allali, A. Ducrot, A. Taik, V. Volpert (2010)

Mathematical Modelling of Natural Phenomena

Similarity:

We study the influence of natural convection on stability of reaction fronts in porous media. The model consists of the heat equation, of the equation for the depth of conversion and of the equations of motion under the Darcy law. Linear stability analysis of the problem is fulfilled, the stability boundary is found. Direct numerical simulations are performed and compared with the linear stability analysis.

Controlling Nanoparticles Formation in Molten Metallic Bilayers by Pulsed-Laser Interference Heating

M. Khenner, S. Yadavali, R. Kalyanaraman (2012)

Mathematical Modelling of Natural Phenomena

Similarity:

The impacts of the two-beam interference heating on the number of core-shell and embedded nanoparticles and on nanostructure coarsening are studied numerically based on the non-linear dynamical model for dewetting of the pulsed-laser irradiated, thin (< 20 nm) metallic bilayers. The model incorporates thermocapillary forces and disjoining pressures, and assumes dewetting from the optically transparent substrate atop of the reflective...

Unconditional nonlinear stability in a polarized dielectric liquid

Giuseppe Mulone, Salvatore Rionero, Brian Straughan (1996)

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

Similarity:

We derive a very sharp nonlinear stability result for the problem of thermal convection in a layer of dielectric fluid subject to an alternating current (AC). It is particularly important to note that the size of the initial energy in which we establish global nonlinear stability is not restricted whatsoever, and the Rayleigh-Roberts number boundary coincides with that found by a formal linear instability analysis.

Stability of flat interfaces during semidiscrete solidification

Andreas Veeser (2010)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis

Similarity:

The stability of flat interfaces with respect to a spatial semidiscretization of a solidification model is analyzed. The considered model is the quasi-static approximation of the Stefan problem with dynamical Gibbs–Thomson law. The stability analysis bases on an argument developed by Mullins and Sekerka for the undiscretized case. The obtained stability properties differ from those with respect to the quasi-static model for certain parameter values and relatively coarse meshes....
