Modélisation du champ de retard à la condensation d'un supraconducteur par un problème de bifurcation
In this paper we are interested in a mathematical model of migration of grass eels in an estuary. We first revisit a previous model proposed by O. Arino and based on a degenerate convection-diffusion equation of parabolic-hyperbolic type with time-varying subdomains. Then, we propose an adapted mathematical framework for this model, we prove a result of existence of a weak solution and we propose some numerical simulations.
We present here a series of works which aims at describing geophysical flows in the equatorial zone, taking into account the dominating influence of the earth rotation. We actually proceed by successive approximations computing for each model the response of the fluid to the strong Coriolis penalisation. The main difficulty is due to the spatial variations of the Coriolis acceleration : in particular, as it vanishes at the equator, fast oscillations are trapped in a thin strip of latitudes.
Plant growth occurs due to cell proliferation in the meristem. We model the case of apical meristem specific for branch growth and the case of basal meristem specific for bulbous plants and grass. In the case of apical growth, our model allows us to describe the variety of plant forms and lifetimes, endogenous rhythms and apical domination. In the case of basal growth, the spatial structure, which corresponds to the appearance of leaves, results...
Over the past decade or so, there have been a large number of modelling approaches aimed at elucidating the most important mechanisms affecting the formation of new capillaries from parent blood vessels — a process known as angiogenesis. Most studies have focussed upon the way in which capillary sprouts are initiated and migrate in response to diffusible chemical stimuli supplied by hypoxic stromal cells and leukocytes in the contexts of solid tumour...
We derive the modulation equations (Whitham equations) for the Camassa-Holm (CH) equation. We show that the modulation equations are hyperbolic and admit a bi-Hamiltonian structure. Furthermore they are connected by a reciprocal transformation to the modulation equations of the first negative flow of the Korteweg de Vries (KdV) equation. The reciprocal transformation is generated by the Casimir of the second Poisson bracket of the KdV averaged flow. We show that the geometry...
We give a new representation of solutions to a class of time-dependent Schrödinger type equations via the short-time Fourier transform and the method of characteristics. Moreover, we also establish some novel estimates for oscillatory integrals which are associated with the fractional power of negative Laplacian with . Consequently the classical Hamiltonian corresponding to the previous Schrödinger type equations is studied. As applications, a series of new boundedness results for the corresponding...
We consider a motion of spiral-shaped piecewise linear curves governed by a crystalline curvature flow with a driving force and a tip motion which is a simple model of a step motion of a crystal surface. We extend our previous result on global existence of a spiral-shaped solution to a linear crystalline motion for a power type nonlinear crystalline motion with a given rotating tip motion. We show that self-intersection of the solution curves never occurs and also show that facet extinction never...
