This paper discusses analytical and numerical issues related to elliptic equations with random coefficients which are generally nonlinear functions of white noise. Singularity issues are avoided by using the Itô-Skorohod calculus to interpret the interactions between the coefficients and the solution. The solution is constructed by means of the Wiener Chaos (Cameron-Martin) expansions. The existence and uniqueness of the solutions are established under rather weak assumptions, the main of which...

We present a numerical algorithm to solve the micromagnetic equations based on tangential-plane minimization for the magnetization update and a homothethic-layer decomposition of outer space for the computation of the demagnetization field. As a first application, detailed results on the flower-vortex transition in the cube of Micromagnetic Standard Problem number 3 are obtained, which confirm, with a different method, those already present in the literature, and validate our method and code. We...

We prove the existence of solutions to nonlinear parabolic problems of the following type: $$\left\{\begin{array}{cc}{\displaystyle \frac{\partial b\left(u\right)}{\partial t}}+A\left(u\right)=f+\mathrm{div}\left(\Theta (x;t;u)\right)\hfill & \text{in}Q,\hfill \\ u(x;t)=0\hfill & \text{on}\partial \Omega \times [0;T],\hfill \\ b\left(u\right)(t=0)=b\left(u_0\right)\hfill & \text{on}\Omega ,\hfill \end{array}\right.$$ where $b:ℝ\to ℝ$ is a strictly increasing function of class ${𝒞}^1$, the term $$A\left(u\right)=-\mathrm{div}\left(a\right(x,t,u,\nabla u\left)\right)$$ is an operator of Leray-Lions type which satisfies the classical Leray-Lions assumptions of Musielak type, $\Theta :\Omega \times [0;T]\times ℝ\to ℝ$ is a Carathéodory, noncoercive function which satisfies the following condition: ${sup}_{\left|s\right|\le k}\left|\Theta (·,·,s)\right|\in E_{\psi }\left(Q\right)$ for all $k>0$, where $\psi$ is the Musielak complementary function of $\Theta$, and the second term $f$ belongs to $L^1\left(Q\right)$.
