Evolution by the vortex filament equation of curves with a corner

Valeria Banica (2013)

Journées Équations aux dérivées partielles

In this proceedings article we shall survey a series of results on the stability of self-similar solutions of the vortex filament equation. This equation is a geometric flow for curves in 3 and it is used as a model for the evolution of a vortex filament in fluid mechanics. The main theorem give, under suitable assumptions, the existence and description of solutions generated by curves with a corner, for positive and negative times. Its companion theorem describes the evolution of perturbations...

Exact controllability of the wave equation with mixed boundary condition and time-dependent coefficients

M. M. Cavalcanti (1999)

Archivum Mathematicum

In this paper we study the boundary exact controllability for the equation t α ( t ) y t - j = 1 n x j β ( t ) a ( x ) y x j = 0 in Ω × ( 0 , T ) , when the control action is of Dirichlet-Neumann form and Ω is a bounded domain in R n . The result is obtained by applying the HUM (Hilbert Uniqueness Method) due to J. L. Lions.

Existence and asymptotic stability for viscoelastic problems with nonlocal boundary dissipation

Jong Yeoul Park, Sun Hye Park (2006)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

We consider the damped semilinear viscoelastic wave equation u ' ' - Δ u + 0 t h ( t - τ ) div { a u ( τ ) } d τ + g ( u ' ) = 0 in Ω × ( 0 , ) with nonlocal boundary dissipation. The existence of global solutions is proved by means of the Faedo-Galerkin method and the uniform decay rate of the energy is obtained by following the perturbed energy method provided that the kernel of the memory decays exponentially.

Existence and stability theorems for abstract parabolic equations, and some of their applications

Gerhard Ströhmer, Wojciech Zajączkowski (1996)

Banach Center Publications

For a class of semi-abstract evolution equations for sections on vector bundles on a three-dimensional compact manifold we prove that for initial values with certain symmetries strong solutions exist for all times. In case these solutions become small after some time, strong solutions exist also for small perturbations of these initial values. Many systems from fluid mechanics are included in this class.
