Finite difference scheme for the Willmore flow of graphs

Tomáš Oberhuber (2007)

Kybernetika

In this article we discuss numerical scheme for the approximation of the Willmore flow of graphs. The scheme is based on the finite difference method. We improve the scheme we presented in Oberhuber [Obe-2005-2,Obe-2005-1] which is based on combination of the forward and the backward finite differences. The new scheme approximates the Willmore flow by the central differences and as a result it better preserves symmetry of the solution. Since it requires higher regularity of the solution, additional...

Forced anisotropic mean curvature flow of graphs in relative geometry

Dieu Hung Hoang, Michal Beneš (2014)

Mathematica Bohemica

The paper is concerned with the graph formulation of forced anisotropic mean curvature flow in the context of the heteroepitaxial growth of quantum dots. The problem is generalized by including anisotropy by means of Finsler metrics. A semi-discrete numerical scheme based on the method of lines is presented. Computational results with various anisotropy settings are shown and discussed.

Formazione di singolarità nel moto per curvatura media

Carlo Sinestrari (2001)

Bollettino dell'Unione Matematica Italiana

We study the formation of singularities for hypersurfaces evolving by mean curvature. After recalling the basic properties of the flow and the classical results about curves and convex surfaces, we give account of some recent developments of the theory for the case of surfaces with positive mean curvature. We show that for such surfaces we can obtain a–priori estimates on the principal curvatures which enable us to classify the singular profiles by the use of rescaling techniques.
