Weak solutions to a time-dependent heat equation with nonlocal radiation boundary condition and arbitrary p -summable right-hand side

Pierre-Etienne Druet (2010)

Applications of Mathematics

Similarity:

We consider a model for transient conductive-radiative heat transfer in grey materials. Since the domain contains an enclosed cavity, nonlocal radiation boundary conditions for the conductive heat-flux are taken into account. We generalize known existence and uniqueness results to the practically relevant case of lower integrable heat-sources, and of nonsmooth interfaces. We obtain energy estimates that involve only the L p norm of the heat sources for exponents p close to one. Such estimates...

Existence of weak solutions to doubly degenerate diffusion equations

Aleš Matas, Jochen Merker (2012)

Applications of Mathematics

Similarity:

We prove existence of weak solutions to doubly degenerate diffusion equations u ˙ = Δ p u m - 1 + f ( m , p ≥ 2 ) by Faedo-Galerkin approximation for general domains and general nonlinearities. More precisely, we discuss the equation in an abstract setting, which allows to choose function spaces corresponding to bounded or unbounded domains Ω ⊂ ℝ n with Dirichlet or Neumann boundary conditions. The function f can be an inhomogeneity or a nonlinearity involving terms of the form f ( u ) or div ( F ( u ) ) . In the appendix, an introduction to weak...

External approximation of first order variational problems estimates

Cesare Davini, Roberto Paroni (2008)

ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations

Similarity:

Here we present an approximation method for a rather broad class of first order variational problems in spaces of piece-wise constant functions over triangulations of the base domain. The convergence of the method is based on an inequality involving W - 1 , p norms obtained by Nečas and on the general framework of -convergence theory.

Spatial heterogeneity in 3D-2D dimensional reduction

Jean-François Babadjian, Gilles A. Francfort (2005)

ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations

Similarity:

A justification of heterogeneous membrane models as zero-thickness limits of a cylindral three-dimensional heterogeneous nonlinear hyperelastic body is proposed in the spirit of Le Dret (1995). Specific characterizations of the 2D elastic energy are produced. As a generalization of Bouchitté et al. (2002), the case where external loads induce a density of bending moment that produces a Cosserat vector field is also investigated. Throughout, the 3D-2D dimensional reduction is viewed as...
