Obstacle problems for scalar conservation laws

Laurent Levi (2001)

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

In this paper we are interested in bilateral obstacle problems for quasilinear scalar conservation laws associated with Dirichlet boundary conditions. Firstly, we provide a suitable entropy formulation which ensures uniqueness. Then, we justify the existence of a solution through the method of penalization and by referring to the notion of entropy process solution due to specific properties of bounded sequences in L . Lastly, we study the behaviour of this solution and its stability properties with...

On a 2D vector Poisson problem with apparently mutually exclusive scalar boundary conditions

Jean-Luc Guermond, Luigi Quartapelle, Jiang Zhu (2010)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis

This work is devoted to the study of a two-dimensional vector Poisson equation with the normal component of the unknown and the value of the divergence of the unknown prescribed simultaneously on the entire boundary. These two scalar boundary conditions appear prima facie alternative in a standard variational framework. An original variational formulation of this boundary value problem is proposed here. Furthermore, an uncoupled solution algorithm is introduced together with its finite element...

On a Bernoulli problem with geometric constraints

Antoine Laurain, Yannick Privat (2012)

ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations

A Bernoulli free boundary problem with geometrical constraints is studied. The domain Ω is constrained to lie in the half space determined by x1 ≥ 0 and its boundary to contain a segment of the hyperplane  {x1 = 0}  where non-homogeneous Dirichlet conditions are imposed. We are then looking for the solution of a partial differential equation satisfying a Dirichlet and a Neumann boundary condition simultaneously on the free boundary. The existence and uniqueness of a solution have already been addressed...

On a Caginalp phase-field system with a logarithmic nonlinearity

Charbel Wehbe (2015)

Applications of Mathematics

We consider a phase field system based on the Maxwell Cattaneo heat conduction law, with a logarithmic nonlinearity, associated with Dirichlet boundary conditions. In particular, we prove, in one and two space dimensions, the existence of a solution which is strictly separated from the singularities of the nonlinear term and that the problem possesses a finite-dimensional global attractor in terms of exponential attractors.
