Understanding singularitiesin free boundary problems

Xavier Ros-Oton, Joaquim Serra (2019)

Matematica, Cultura e Società. Rivista dell'Unione Matematica Italiana

Similarity:

Free boundary problems are those described by PDEs that exhibit a priori unknown (free) interfacesor boundaries. The most classical example is the melting of ice to water (the Stefan problem). In this case, the freeboundary is the liquid-solid interface between ice and water. A central mathematical challenge in this context is to understand the regularity and singularities of free boundaries. In this paper we provide a gentle introduction to this topic by presenting some classical results...

Combustion in hydraulically resisted flows.

Gregory I. Sivashinsky (2007)

RACSAM

Similarity:

The effects of hydraulic resistance on premixed gas combustion in tubes and inert porous beds are discussed on the basis of recent research. It is found that the hydraulic resistance causes a gradual precompression and preheating of the unburned gas adjacent to the advancing deflagration which may lead (after an extended induction period) to a localized thermal explosion triggering an abrupt transition from deglagrative to detonative combustion. The hydraulic resistance has a profound...

A Langevin Description for Driven Granular Gases

P. Maynar, M. I. García de Soria (2011)

Mathematical Modelling of Natural Phenomena

Similarity:

The study of the fluctuations in the steady state of a heated granular system is reviewed. A Boltzmann-Langevin description can be built requiring consistency with the equations for the one- and two-particle correlation functions. From the Boltzmann-Langevin equation, Langevin equations for the total energy and the transverse velocity field are derived. The existence of a fluctuation-dissipation relation for the transverse velocity field...
