Observability inequalities and measurable sets

Jone Apraiz, Luis Escauriaza, Gengsheng Wang, C. Zhang (2014)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

This paper presents two observability inequalities for the heat equation over Ω × ( 0 , T ) . In the first one, the observation is from a subset of positive measure in Ω × ( 0 , T ) , while in the second, the observation is from a subset of positive surface measure on Ω × ( 0 , T ) . It also proves the Lebeau-Robbiano spectral inequality when Ω is a bounded Lipschitz and locally star-shaped domain. Some applications for the above-mentioned observability inequalities are provided.

Observability properties of a semi-discrete 1d wave equation derived from a mixed finite element method on nonuniform meshes

Sylvain Ervedoza (2010)

ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations

The goal of this article is to analyze the observability properties for a space semi-discrete approximation scheme derived from a mixed finite element method of the 1d wave equation on nonuniform meshes. More precisely, we prove that observability properties hold uniformly with respect to the mesh-size under some assumptions, which, roughly, measures the lack of uniformity of the meshes, thus extending the work [Castro and Micu, Numer. Math.102 (2006) 413–462] to nonuniform meshes. Our results...

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 high-order iterative scheme for a nonlinear Love equation

Le Thi Phuong Ngoc, Nguyen Tuan Duy, Nguyen Thanh Long (2015)

Applications of Mathematics

In this paper, a high-order iterative scheme is established for a nonlinear Love equation associated with homogeneous Dirichlet boundary conditions. This is a development based on recent results (L. T. P. Ngoc, N. T. Long (2011); L. X. Truong, L. T. P. Ngoc, N. T. Long (2009)) to get a convergent sequence at a rate of order N 2 to a local unique weak solution of the above mentioned equation.

On a hybrid finite-volume-particle method

Alina Chertock, Alexander Kurganov (2004)

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

We present a hybrid finite-volume-particle numerical method for computing the transport of a passive pollutant by a flow. The flow is modeled by the one- and two-dimensional Saint-Venant system of shallow water equations and the pollutant propagation is described by a transport equation. This paper is an extension of our previous work [Chertock, Kurganov and Petrova, J. Sci. Comput. (to appear)], where the one-dimensional finite-volume-particle method has been proposed. The core idea behind the...
