Néel and Cross-Tie Wall Energies for Planar Micromagnetic Configurations

François Alouges, Tristan Rivière, Sylvia Serfaty (2010)

ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations


We study a two-dimensional model for micromagnetics, which consists in an energy functional over S2-valued vector fields. Bounded-energy configurations tend to be planar, except in small regions which can be described as vortices (Bloch lines in physics). As the characteristic “exchange-length” tends to 0, they converge to planar divergence-free unit norm vector fields which jump along line singularities. We derive lower bounds for the energy, which are explicit functions of the jumps of the limit....

Nonlinear boundary value problems with application to semiconductor device equations

Miroslav Pospíšek (1994)

Applications of Mathematics

The paper deals with boundary value problems for systems of nonlinear elliptic equations in a relatively general form. Theorems based on monotone operator theory and concerning the existence of weak solutions of such a system, as well as the convergence of discretized problem solutions are presented. As an example, the approach is applied to the stationary Van Roosbroeck’s system, arising in semiconductor device modelling. A convergent algorithm suitable for solving sets of algebraic equations generated...

Numerical solution of an inverse initial boundary value problem for the wave equation in the presence of conductivity imperfections of small volume

Mark Asch, Marion Darbas, Jean-Baptiste Duval (2011)

ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations

We consider the numerical solution, in two- and three-dimensional bounded domains, of the inverse problem for identifying the location of small-volume, conductivity imperfections in a medium with homogeneous background. A dynamic approach, based on the wave equation, permits us to treat the important case of “limited-view” data. Our numerical algorithm is based on the coupling of a finite element solution of the wave equation, an exact controllability method and finally a Fourier inversion for localizing...

Numerical study by a controllability method for the calculation of the time-periodic solutions of the Maxwell and Vlasov-Maxwell systems

Mihai Bostan (2001)

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

The topic of this paper is the numerical analysis of time periodic solution for electro-magnetic phenomena. The Limit Absorption Method (LAM) which forms the basis of our study is presented. Theoretical results have been proved in the linear finite dimensional case. This method is applied to scattering problems and transport of charged particles.

Numerical study of self-focusing solutions to the Schrödinger-Debye system

Christophe Besse, Brigitte Bidégaray (2001)

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

In this article we implement different numerical schemes to simulate the Schrödinger-Debye equations that occur in nonlinear optics. Since the existence of blow-up solutions is an open problem, we try to compute such solutions. The convergence of the methods is proved and simulations seem indeed to show that for at least small delays self-focusing solutions may exist.

On a certain two-sided symmetric condition in magnetic field analysis and computations

František Melkes, Alexander Ženíšek (1997)

Applications of Mathematics

A special two-sided condition for the incremental magnetic reluctivity is introduced which guarantees the unique existence of both the weak and the approximate solutions of the nonlinear stationary magnetic field distributed on a region composed of different media, as well as a certain estimate of the error between the two solutions. The condition, being discussed from the physical as well as the mathematical point of view, can be easily verified and is fulfilled for various magnetic reluctivity...

On approximation of the Neumann problem by the penalty method

Michal Křížek (1993)

Applications of Mathematics

We prove that penalization of constraints occuring in the linear elliptic Neumann problem yields directly the exact solution for an arbitrary set of penalty parameters. In this case there is a continuum of Lagrange's multipliers. The proposed penalty method is applied to calculate the magnetic field in the window of a transformer.

On evolution Galerkin methods for the Maxwell and the linearized Euler equations

Mária Lukáčová-Medviďová, Jitka Saibertová, Gerald G. Warnecke, Yousef Zahaykah (2004)

Applications of Mathematics

The subject of the paper is the derivation and analysis of evolution Galerkin schemes for the two dimensional Maxwell and linearized Euler equations. The aim is to construct a method which takes into account better the infinitely many directions of propagation of waves. To do this the initial function is evolved using the characteristic cone and then projected onto a finite element space. We derive the divergence-free property and estimate the dispersion relation as well. We present some numerical...
