Equations containing locally Henstock-Kurzweil integrable functions

Seppo Heikkilä, Guoju Ye (2012)

Applications of Mathematics

A fixed point theorem in ordered spaces and a recently proved monotone convergence theorem are applied to derive existence and comparison results for solutions of a functional integral equation of Volterra type and a functional impulsive Cauchy problem in an ordered Banach space. A novel feature is that equations contain locally Henstock-Kurzweil integrable functions.

Existence and uniqueness for dynamical unilateral contact with Coulomb friction : a model problem

Patrick Ballard, Stéphanie Basseville (2005)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis - Modélisation Mathématique et Analyse Numérique

A simple dynamical problem involving unilateral contact and dry friction of Coulomb type is considered as an archetype. We are concerned with the existence and uniqueness of solutions of the system with Cauchy data. In the frictionless case, it is known [Schatzman, Nonlinear Anal. Theory, Methods Appl. 2 (1978) 355–373] that pathologies of non-uniqueness can exist, even if all the data are of class C . However, uniqueness is recovered provided that the data are analytic [Ballard, Arch. Rational Mech....

Existence and uniqueness for dynamical unilateral contact with Coulomb friction: a model problem

Patrick Ballard, Stéphanie Basseville (2010)

A simple dynamical problem involving unilateral contact and dry friction of Coulomb type is considered as an archetype. We are concerned with the existence and uniqueness of solutions of the system with Cauchy data. In the frictionless case, it is known [Schatzman, Nonlinear Anal. Theory, Methods Appl.2 (1978) 355–373] that pathologies of non-uniqueness can exist, even if all the data are of class C∞. However, uniqueness is recovered provided that the data are analytic [Ballard, Arch. Rational...

Generalized practical stability analysis of discontinuous dynamical systems

Guisheng Zhai, Anthony Michel (2004)

International Journal of Applied Mathematics and Computer Science

In practice, one is not only interested in the qualitative characterizations provided by the Lyapunov stability, but also in quantitative information concerning the system behavior, including estimates of trajectory bounds, possibly over finite time intervals. This type of information has been ascertained in the past in a systematic manner using the concept of practical stability. In the present paper, we give a new definition of generalized practical stability (abbreviated as GP-stability) and...

On a hybrid finite-volume-particle method

Alina Chertock, Alexander Kurganov (2004)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis - Modélisation Mathématique et Analyse Numérique

We present a hybrid finite-volume-particle numerical method for computing the transport of a passive pollutant by a flow. The flow is modeled by the one- and two-dimensional Saint-Venant system of shallow water equations and the pollutant propagation is described by a transport equation. This paper is an extension of our previous work [Chertock, Kurganov and Petrova, J. Sci. Comput. (to appear)], where the one-dimensional finite-volume-particle method has been proposed. The core idea behind the...

On discontinuous implicit differential equations in ordered Banach spaces with discontinuous implicit boundary conditions

S. Carl, S. Heikkilä (1999)

Annales Polonici Mathematici

We consider the existence of extremal solutions to second order discontinuous implicit ordinary differential equations with discontinuous implicit boundary conditions in ordered Banach spaces. We also study the dependence of these solutions on the data, and cases when the extremal solutions are obtained as limits of successive approximations. Examples are given to demonstrate the applicability of the method developed in this paper.

Regular syntheses and solutions to discontinuous ODEs

Alessia Marigo, Benedetto Piccoli (2002)

ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations

In this paper we analyze several concepts of solution to discontinuous ODEs in relation to feedbacks generated by optimal syntheses. Optimal trajectories are called Stratified Solutions in case of regular synthesis in the sense of Boltyanskii–Brunovsky. We introduce a concept of solution called Krasowskii Cone Robust that characterizes optimal trajectories for minimum time on the plane and for general problems under suitable assumptions.
