Les équations d’Euler, des ondes et de Korteweg-de Vries comme limites asymptotiques de l’équation de Gross-Pitaevskii
This article deals with the low Mach number limit of the compressible Euler-Korteweg equations. It is justified rigorously that solutions of the compressible Euler-Korteweg equations converge to those of the incompressible Euler equations as the Mach number tends to zero. Furthermore, the desired convergence rates are also obtained.
Lower and upper bounds for the Rayleigh conductivity of a perforation in a thick plate are usually derived from intuitive approximations and by physical reasoning. This paper addresses a mathematical justification of these approaches. As a byproduct of the rigorous handling of these issues, some improvements to previous bounds for axisymmetric holes are given as well as new estimates for tilted perforations. The main techniques are a proper use of the Dirichlet and Kelvin variational principlesin...
