Solution of contaminant transport with adsorption in porous media by the method of characteristics

Jozef Kacur, Roger Van Keer (2010)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis

Similarity:

A new approximation scheme is presented for the mathematical model of convection-diffusion and adsorption. The method is based on the relaxation method and the method of characteristics. We prove the convergence of the method and present some numerical experiments in 1D. The results can be applied to the model of contaminant transport in porous media with multi-site, equilibrium and non-equilibrium type of adsorption.

Homogenization and Diffusion Asymptotics of the Linear Boltzmann Equation

Thierry Goudon, Antoine Mellet (2010)

ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations

Similarity:

We investigate the diffusion limit for general conservative Boltzmann equations with oscillating coefficients. Oscillations have a frequency of the same order as the inverse of the mean free path, and the coefficients may depend on both slow and fast variables. Passing to the limit, we are led to an effective drift-diffusion equation. We also describe the diffusive behaviour when the equilibrium function has a non-vanishing flux.
