About the decay of surface waves on viscous fluids without surface tension

Gerhard Ströhmer (2003)

Banach Center Publications

We study the decay of the motions of a viscous fluid subject to gravity without surface tension with a free boundary at the top. We show that the solutions of the linearization about the equilibrium state decay, but not exponentially in a uniform manner. We also discuss the consequences of this for the non-linear equations.

Accurate eigenvalue asymptotics for the magnetic Neumann Laplacian

Soeren Fournais, Bernard Helffer (2006)

Annales de l’institut Fourier

Motivated by the theory of superconductivity and more precisely by the problem of the onset of superconductivity in dimension two, many papers devoted to the analysis in a semi-classical regime of the lowest eigenvalue of the Schrödinger operator with magnetic field have appeared recently. Here we would like to mention the works by Bernoff-Sternberg, Lu-Pan, Del Pino-Felmer-Sternberg and Helffer-Morame and also Bauman-Phillips-Tang for the case of a disc. In the present paper we settle one important...

Accurate numerical discretizations of non-conservative hyperbolic systems

Ulrik Skre Fjordholm, Siddhartha Mishra (2012)

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

We present an alternative framework for designing efficient numerical schemes for non-conservative hyperbolic systems. This approach is based on the design of entropy conservative discretizations and suitable numerical diffusion operators that mimic the effect of underlying viscous mechanisms. This approach is illustrated by considering two model non-conservative systems: Lagrangian gas dynamics in non-conservative form and a form of isothermal Euler equations. Numerical experiments demonstrating...

Adaptive finite element relaxation schemes for hyperbolic conservation laws

Christos Arvanitis, Theodoros Katsaounis, Charalambos Makridakis (2001)

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

We propose and study semidiscrete and fully discrete finite element schemes based on appropriate relaxation models for systems of Hyperbolic Conservation Laws. These schemes are using piecewise polynomials of arbitrary degree and their consistency error is of high order. The methods are combined with an adaptive strategy that yields fine mesh in shock regions and coarser mesh in the smooth parts of the solution. The computational performance of these methods is demonstrated by considering scalar...

Additional note on partial regularity of weak solutions of the Navier-Stokes equations in the class L ( 0 , T , L 3 ( Ω ) 3 )

Zdeněk Skalák (2003)

Applications of Mathematics

We present a simplified proof of a theorem proved recently concerning the number of singular points of weak solutions to the Navier-Stokes equations. If a weak solution 𝐮 belongs to L ( 0 , T , L 3 ( Ω ) 3 ) , then the set of all possible singular points of 𝐮 in Ω is at most finite at every time t 0 ( 0 , T ) .

Adiabatic approximation for a two-level atom in a light beam

Amandine Aftalion, Francis Nier (2013)

Annales de la faculté des sciences de Toulouse Mathématiques

Following the recent experimental realization of synthetic gauge potentials, Jean Dalibard addressed the question whether the adiabatic ansatz could be mathematically justified for a model of an atom in 2 internal states, shone by a quasi resonant laser beam. In this paper, we derive rigorously the asymptotic model guessed by the physicists, and show that this asymptotic analysis contains the information about the presence of vortices. Surprisingly, the main difficulties do not come from the nonlinear...

Adiabatic Evolution of Coupled Waves for a Schrödinger-Korteweg-de Vries System

W. Abou Salem (2012)

Mathematical Modelling of Natural Phenomena

The effective dynamics of interacting waves for coupled Schrödinger-Korteweg-de Vries equations over a slowly varying random bottom is rigorously studied. One motivation for studying such a system is better understanding the unidirectional motion of interacting surface and internal waves for a fluid system that is formed of two immiscible layers. It was shown recently by Craig-Guyenne-Sulem [1] that in the regime where the internal wave has a large...

Air entrainment in transient flows in closed water pipes : A two-layer approach

C. Bourdarias, M. Ersoy, Stéphane Gerbi (2013)

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

In this paper, we first construct a model for free surface flows that takes into account the air entrainment by a system of four partial differential equations. We derive it by taking averaged values of gas and fluid velocities on the cross surface flow in the Euler equations (incompressible for the fluid and compressible for the gas). The obtained system is conditionally hyperbolic. Then, we propose a mathematical kinetic interpretation of this system to finally construct a two-layer kinetic scheme...
