Optimal Poiseuille flow in a finite elastic dyadic tree

Benjamin Mauroy, Nicolas Meunier (2008)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis

In this paper we construct a model to describe some aspects of the deformation of the central region of the human lung considered as a continuous elastically deformable medium. To achieve this purpose, we study the interaction between the pipes composing the tree and the fluid that goes through it. We use a stationary model to determine the deformed radius of each branch. Then, we solve a constrained minimization problem, so as to minimize the viscous (dissipated) energy in the tree. The key...

Quasistatic problems in contact mechanics

Meir Shillor (2001)

International Journal of Applied Mathematics and Computer Science

We describe some of our recent results concerning the modeling and analysis of quasistatic contact problems between a deformable body and a foundation. We concentrate mainly on frictional contact, and in some of the problems thermal effects and the wear of the contacting surfaces are also taken into account. We describe the physical processes involved, the mathematical models, their variational formulation and then present statements of our results. We conclude with a description of some unresolved...

Shakedown theorems in poroplastic dynamics

Giuseppe Cocchetti, Giulio Maier (2002)

Atti della Accademia Nazionale dei Lincei. Classe di Scienze Fisiche, Matematiche e Naturali. Rendiconti Lincei. Matematica e Applicazioni

The constitutive model assumed in this Note is poroplastic two-phase (solid-fluid) with full saturation and stable in Drucker’s sense. A solid or structure of this material is considered, subjected to dynamic external actions, in particular periodic or intermittent, in a small deformation regime. A sufficient condition and a necessary one are established, by a «static» approach, for shakedown (or adaptation), namely for boundedness in time of the cumulative dissipated energy.

Simplified mathematical models of fluid-structure-acoustic interaction problem motivated by human phonation process

Valášek, Jan, Sváček, Petr (2025)

Programs and Algorithms of Numerical Mathematics

Human phonation process represents an interesting and complex problem of fluid-structure-acoustic interaction, where the deformation of the vocal folds (elastic body) are interplaying with the fluid flow (air stream) and the acoustics. Due to its high complexity, two simplified mathematical models are described - the fluid-structure interaction (FSI) problem describing the self-induced vibrations of the vocal folds, and the fluid-structure-acoustic interaction (FSAI) problem, which also involves...

Smoothness of the motion of a rigid body immersed in an incompressible perfect fluid

Olivier Glass, Franck Sueur, Takéo Takahashi (2012)

Annales scientifiques de l'École Normale Supérieure

We consider the motion of a rigid body immersed in an incompressible perfect fluid which occupies a three-dimensional bounded domain. For such a system the Cauchy problem is well-posed locally in time if the initial velocity of the fluid is in the Hölder space C 1 , r . In this paper we prove that the smoothness of the motion of the rigid body may be only limited by the smoothness of the boundaries (of the body and of the domain). In particular for analytic boundaries the motion of the rigid body is analytic...

Solutions faibles pour des problèmes d’interaction fluide-structure

Benoît Desjardins, Maria J. Esteban (1999/2000)

Séminaire Équations aux dérivées partielles

Nous présentons dans cette note une nouvelle façon d’aborder les questions d’existence de solutions faibles pour certains problèmes d’interaction fluide-structure. Dans l’état actuel, cette approche permet de traiter le cas de solides rigides ou très faiblement déformables, immergés dans un fluide visqueux incompressible ou dans un fluide visqueux compressible dont l’évolution est isentropique.
