Hamiltonian principle in the binary mixtures of Euler fluids with applications to the second sound phenomena

Henri Gouin, Tommaso Ruggeri (2003)

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

In the present paper we compare the theory of mixtures based on Rational Thermomechanics with the one obtained by Hamilton principle. We prove that the two theories coincide in the adiabatic case when the action is constructed with the intrinsic Lagrangian. In the complete thermodynamical case we show that we have also coincidence in the case of low temperature when the second sound phenomena arises for superfluid Helium and crystals.

Hermite pseudospectral method for nonlinear partial differential equations

Ben-yu Guo, Cheng-long Xu (2010)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis

Hermite polynomial interpolation is investigated. Some approximation results are obtained. As an example, the Burgers equation on the whole line is considered. The stability and the convergence of proposed Hermite pseudospectral scheme are proved strictly. Numerical results are presented.

High order finite volume schemes for numerical solution of 2D and 3D transonic flows

Jiří Fürst, Karel Kozel, Petr Furmánek (2009)

Kybernetika

The aim of this article is a qualitative analysis of two modern finite volume (FVM) schemes. First one is the so called Modified Causon’s scheme, which is based on the classical MacCormack FVM scheme in total variation diminishing (TVD) form, but is simplified in such a way that the demands on computational power are much smaller without loss of accuracy. Second one is implicit WLSQR (Weighted Least Square Reconstruction) scheme combined with various types of numerical fluxes (AUSMPW+ and HLLC)....

High resolution schemes for open channel flow

Brandner, Marek, Egermaier, Jiří, Kopincová, Hana (2010)

Programs and Algorithms of Numerical Mathematics

One of the commonly used models for river flow modelling is based on the Saint-Venant equations - the system of hyperbolic equations with spatially varying flux function and a source term. We introduce finite volume methods that solve this type of balance laws efficiently and satisfy some important properties at the same time. The properties like consistency, stability and convergence are necessary for the mathematically correct solution. However, the schemes should be also positive semidefinite...

Higher-order phase transitions with line-tension effect

Bernardo Galvão-Sousa (2011)

ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations

The behavior of energy minimizers at the boundary of the domain is of great importance in the Van de Waals-Cahn-Hilliard theory for fluid-fluid phase transitions, since it describes the effect of the container walls on the configuration of the liquid. This problem, also known as the liquid-drop problem, was studied by Modica in [Ann. Inst. Henri Poincaré, Anal. non linéaire 4 (1987) 487–512], and in a different form by Alberti et al. in [Arch. Rational Mech. Anal.u is a scalar density function and...
