Constraint preserving schemes using potential-based fluxes. III. Genuinely multi-dimensional schemes for MHD equations∗∗∗

Siddhartha Mishra, Eitan Tadmor (2012)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis

We design efficient numerical schemes for approximating the MHD equations in multi-dimensions. Numerical approximations must be able to deal with the complex wave structure of the MHD equations and the divergence constraint. We propose schemes based on the genuinely multi-dimensional (GMD) framework of [S. Mishra and E. Tadmor, Commun. Comput. Phys. 9 (2010) 688–710; S. Mishra and E. Tadmor, SIAM J. Numer. Anal. 49 (2011) 1023–1045]. The schemes are formulated in terms of vertex-centered potentials....

Continuity of solutions of a quasilinear hyperbolic equation with hysteresis

Petra Kordulová (2012)

Applications of Mathematics

This paper is devoted to the investigation of quasilinear hyperbolic equations of first order with convex and nonconvex hysteresis operator. It is shown that in the nonconvex case the equation, whose nonlinearity is caused by the hysteresis term, has properties analogous to the quasilinear hyperbolic equation of first order. Hysteresis is represented by a functional describing adsorption and desorption on the particles of the substance. An existence result is achieved by using an approximation of...

Continuous dependence for BV-entropy solutions to strongly degenerate parabolic equations with variable coefficients

Watanabe, Hiroshi (2017)

Proceedings of Equadiff 14

We consider the Cauchy problem for degenerate parabolic equations with variable coefficients. The equation has nonlinear convective term and degenerate diffusion term which depends on the spatial and time variables. In this paper, we prove the continuous dependence for entropy solutions in the space BV to the problem not only initial function but also all coefficients.

Control for the Sine-Gordon equation

Madalina Petcu, Roger Temam (2004)

ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations

In this article we apply the optimal and the robust control theory to the sine-Gordon equation. In our case the control is given by the boundary conditions and we work in a finite time horizon. We present at the beginning the optimal control problem and we derive a necessary condition of optimality and we continue by formulating a robust control problem for which existence and uniqueness of solutions are derived.

Control of the continuity equation with a non local flow

Rinaldo M. Colombo, Michael Herty, Magali Mercier (2011)

ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations

This paper focuses on the analytical properties of the solutions to the continuity equation with non local flow. Our driving examples are a supply chain model and an equation for the description of pedestrian flows. To this aim, we prove the well posedness of weak entropy solutions in a class of equations comprising these models. Then, under further regularity conditions, we prove the differentiability of solutions with respect to the initial datum and characterize this derivative. A necessary ...

Control of the wave equation by time-dependent coefficient

Antonin Chambolle, Fadil Santosa (2002)

ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations

We study an initial boundary-value problem for a wave equation with time-dependent sound speed. In the control problem, we wish to determine a sound-speed function which damps the vibration of the system. We consider the case where the sound speed can take on only two values, and propose a simple control law. We show that if the number of modes in the vibration is finite, and none of the eigenfrequencies are repeated, the proposed control law does lead to energy decay. We illustrate the rich behavior...

Control of transonic shock positions

Olivier Pironneau (2002)

ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations

We wish to show how the shock position in a nozzle could be controlled. Optimal control theory and algorithm is applied to the transonic equation. The difficulty is that the derivative with respect to the shock position involves a Dirac mass. The one dimensional case is solved, the two dimensional one is analyzed .
