Existence of weak solutions for a non-classical sharp interface model for a two-phase flow of viscous, incompressible fluids
This paper presents several sufficient conditions for the existence of weak solutions to general nonlinear elliptic problems of the type where is a bounded domain of , . In particular, we do not require strict monotonicity of the principal part , while the approach is based on the variational method and results of the variable exponent function spaces.
We prove the existence of weak solutions for steady flows of electrorheological fluids with homogeneous Navier-slip type boundary conditions provided . To prove this, we show Poincaré- and Korn-type inequalities, and then construct Lipschitz truncation functions preserving the zero normal component in variable exponent Sobolev spaces.
We prove existence of weak solutions to doubly degenerate diffusion equations 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 with Dirichlet or Neumann boundary conditions. The function can be an inhomogeneity or a nonlinearity involving terms of the form or . In the appendix, an introduction to weak differentiability...
We prove an existence result for a coupled system of the reaction-diffusion kind. The fact that no growth condition is assumed on some nonlinear terms motivates the search of a weak-renormalized solution.
We prove the existence of a renormalized solution to a class of doubly nonlinear parabolic systems.
