Approximation of solutions to second order nonlinear Picard problems with Carathéodory right-hand side

Jacek Gulgowski (2014)

Open Mathematics

Similarity:

We present an approximation method for Picard second order boundary value problems with Carathéodory righthand side. The method is based on the idea of replacing a measurable function in the right-hand side of the problem with its Kantorovich polynomial. We will show that this approximation scheme recovers essential solutions to the original BVP. We also consider the corresponding finite dimensional problem. We suggest a suitable mapping of solutions to finite dimensional problems to...

Finite element approximation of a two-layered liquid film in the presence of insoluble surfactants

John W. Barrett, Linda El Alaoui (2008)

Similarity:

We consider a system of degenerate parabolic equations modelling a thin film, consisting of two layers of immiscible Newtonian liquids, on a solid horizontal substrate. In addition, the model includes the presence of insoluble surfactants on both the free liquid-liquid and liquid-air interfaces, and the presence of both attractive and repulsive van der Waals forces in terms of the heights of the two layers. We show that this system formally satisfies a Lyapunov structure, and a...

Numerical simulation of a point-source initiated flame ball with heat losses

Jacques Audounet, Jean-Michel Roquejoffre, Hélène Rouzaud (2002)

Similarity:

This article is devoted to the numerical study of a flame ball model, derived by Joulin, which obeys to a singular integro-differential equation. The numerical scheme that we analyze here, is based upon a one step method, and we are interested in its long-time behaviour. We recover the same dynamics as in the continuous case: quenching, or stabilization of the flame, depending on heat losses, and an energy input parameter.
