Numerical schemes for a three component Cahn-Hilliard model

Similarity:

In this article, we investigate numerical schemes for solving a three component Cahn-Hilliard model. The space discretization is performed by using a Galerkin formulation and the finite element method. Concerning the time discretization, the main difficulty is to write a scheme ensuring, at the discrete level, the decrease of the free energy and thus the stability of the method. We study three different schemes and prove existence and convergence theorems. Theoretical results are illustrated...

A mathematical model of inflammation during ischemic stroke

Cristiana Di Russo, Jean-Baptiste Lagaert, Guillemette Chapuisat, Marie-Aimée Dronne (2010)

ESAIM: Proceedings

Similarity:

In this article we propose a model to describe the inflammatory process which occurs during ischemic stroke. First, an introduction to some basic concepts about the biological phenomenon is given. Then, a detailed derivation of the model and the numerical scheme used are presented. Finally, the studies of the model robustness and sensitivity are showed and some numerical results on the time and space evolution of the process are presented...
