On weak solutions to the equations of non-stationary motion of heat-conducting incompressible viscous fluids: defect measure and energy equality

Joachim Naumann (2008)

Banach Center Publications

We consider the non-stationary Navier-Stokes equations completed by the equation of conservation of internal energy. The viscosity of the fluid is assumed to depend on the temperature, and the dissipation term is the only heat source in the conservation of internal energy. For the system of PDE's under consideration, we prove the existence of a weak solution such that: 1) the weak form of the conservation of internal energy involves a defect measure, and 2) the equality for the total energy is satisfied....

On weak-strong uniqueness property for full compressible magnetohydrodynamics flows

Weiping Yan (2013)

Open Mathematics

This paper is devoted to the study of the weak-strong uniqueness property for full compressible magnetohydrodynamics flows. The governing equations for magnetohydrodynamic flows are expressed by the full Navier-Stokes system for compressible fluids enhanced by forces due to the presence of the magnetic field as well as the gravity and an additional equation which describes the evolution of the magnetic field. Using the relative entropy inequality, we prove that a weak solution coincides with the...

Onde di ampiezza finita in contenitori oscillanti verticalmente

Paolo Blondeaux (1983)

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

Surface waves of finite amplitude originated by the vertical oscillations of a container are studied. The existence of both supercritical and subcritical waves is found which are either synchronous or subharmonic with respect to the basic oscillation.

One-dimensional kinetic models of granular flows

Giuseppe Toscani (2010)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis

We introduce and discuss a one-dimensional kinetic model of the Boltzmann equation with dissipative collisions and variable coefficient of restitution. Then, the behavior of the Boltzmann equation in the quasi elastic limit is investigated for a wide range of the rate function. By this limit procedure we obtain a class of nonlinear equations classified as nonlinear friction equations. The analysis of the cooling process shows that the nonlinearity on the relative velocity is of paramount importance...

One-dimensional problem for heat and mass transport in oil-wax solution

Roberto Gianni, Anna G. Petrova (2005)

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

A mathematical model of heat and mass transport in non-isothermal partially saturated oil-wax solution was formulated by A. Fasano and M. Primicerio [1]. This paper is devoted to the study of a one-dimensional problem in the framework of that model. The existence of classical solutions in a small time interval is proved, based on the application of a fixed-point theorem to the constructed operator. The technique employed is close to the one of [3] and [4].

Operator-splitting and Lagrange multiplier domain decomposition methods for numerical simulation of two coupled Navier-Stokes fluids

Didier Bresch, Jonas Koko (2006)

International Journal of Applied Mathematics and Computer Science

We present a numerical simulation of two coupled Navier-Stokes flows, using ope-rator-split-ting and optimization-based non-overlapping domain decomposition methods. The model problem consists of two Navier-Stokes fluids coupled, through a common interface, by a nonlinear transmission condition. Numerical experiments are carried out with two coupled fluids; one with an initial linear profile and the other in rest. As expected, the transmission condition generates a recirculation within the fluid...

Optimal control and numerical adaptivity for advection–diffusion equations

Luca Dede', Alfio Quarteroni (2005)

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

We propose a general approach for the numerical approximation of optimal control problems governed by a linear advection–diffusion equation, based on a stabilization method applied to the lagrangian functional, rather than stabilizing the state and adjoint equations separately. This approach yields a coherently stabilized control problem. Besides, it allows a straightforward a posteriori error estimate in which estimates of higher order terms are needless. Our a posteriori estimates stems from splitting...

Optimal control of fluid flow in soil 1. Deterministic case.

Youcef Kelanemer (1998)

Revista Matemática Complutense

We study the numerical aspect of the optimal control of problems governed by a linear elliptic partial differential equation (PDE). We consider here the gas flow in porous media. The observed variable is the flow field we want to maximize in a given part of the domain or its boundary. The control variable is the pressure at one part of the boundary or the discharges of some wells located in the interior of the domain. The objective functional is a balance between the norm of the flux in the observation...
