A model of evolution of temperature and density of ions in an electrolyte

Andrzej Raczyński (2005)

Applicationes Mathematicae

We study existence and nonexistence of solutions (both stationary and evolution) for a parabolic-elliptic system describing the electrodiffusion of ions. In this model the evolution of temperature is also taken into account. For stationary states the existence of an external potential is also assumed.

A Multiscale Model Reduction Method for Partial Differential Equations

Maolin Ci, Thomas Y. Hou, Zuoqiang Shi (2014)

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

We propose a multiscale model reduction method for partial differential equations. The main purpose of this method is to derive an effective equation for multiscale problems without scale separation. An essential ingredient of our method is to decompose the harmonic coordinates into a smooth part and a highly oscillatory part so that the smooth part is invertible and the highly oscillatory part is small. Such a decomposition plays a key role in our construction of the effective equation. We show...

A new error estimate for a fully finite element discretization scheme for parabolic equations using Crank-Nicolson method

Abdallah Bradji, Jürgen Fuhrmann (2014)

Mathematica Bohemica

Finite element methods with piecewise polynomial spaces in space for solving the nonstationary heat equation, as a model for parabolic equations are considered. The discretization in time is performed using the Crank-Nicolson method. A new a priori estimate is proved. Thanks to this new a priori estimate, a new error estimate in the discrete norm of 𝒲 1 , ( 2 ) is proved. An ( 1 ) -error estimate is also shown. These error estimates are useful since they allow us to get second order time accurate approximations...

A new kind of the solution of degenerate parabolic equation with unbounded convection term

Huashui Zhan (2015)

Open Mathematics

A new kind of entropy solution of Cauchy problem of the strong degenerate parabolic equation [...] is introduced. If u0 ∈ L∞(RN), E = {Ei} ∈ (L2(QT))N and divE ∈ L2(QT), by a modified regularization method and choosing the suitable test functions, the BV estimates are got, the existence of the entropy solution is obtained. At last, by Kruzkov bi-variables method, the stability of the solutions is obtained.
