Bipolar Barotropic Non-Newtonian Compressible Fluids

Šárka Matušu-Nečasová, Mária Medviďová-Lukáčová (2010)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis

We are interested in a barotropic motion of the non-Newtonian bipolar fluids . We consider a special case where the stress tensor is expressed in the form of potentials depending on eii and ( e i j x k ) . We prove the asymptotic stability of the rest state under the assumption of the regularity of the potential forces.

Boundary conditions on artificial frontiers for incompressible and compressible Navier-Stokes equations

Charles-Henri Bruneau (2010)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis

Non reflecting boundary conditions on artificial frontiers of the domain are proposed for both incompressible and compressible Navier-Stokes equations. For incompressible flows, the boundary conditions lead to a well-posed problem, convey properly the vortices without any reflections on the artificial limits and allow to compute turbulent flows at high Reynolds numbers. For compressible flows, the boundary conditions convey properly the vortices without any reflections on the artificial limits...

Cascade of phases in turbulent flows

Christophe Cheverry (2006)

Bulletin de la Société Mathématique de France

This article is devoted to incompressible Euler equations (or to Navier-Stokes equations in the vanishing viscosity limit). It describes the propagation of quasi-singularities. The underlying phenomena are consistent with the notion of a cascade of energy.

Compressible two-phase flows by central and upwind schemes

Smadar Karni, Eduard Kirr, Alexander Kurganov, Guergana Petrova (2004)

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

This paper concerns numerical methods for two-phase flows. The governing equations are the compressible 2-velocity, 2-pressure flow model. Pressure and velocity relaxation are included as source terms. Results obtained by a Godunov-type central scheme and a Roe-type upwind scheme are presented. Issues of preservation of pressure equilibrium, and positivity of the partial densities are addressed.

Conservation law constrained optimization based upon front-tracking

Martin Gugat, Michaël Herty, Axel Klar, Gunter Leugering (2006)

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

We consider models based on conservation laws. For the optimization of such systems, a sensitivity analysis is essential to determine how changes in the decision variables influence the objective function. Here we study the sensitivity with respect to the initial data of objective functions that depend upon the solution of Riemann problems with piecewise linear flux functions. We present representations for the one–sided directional derivatives of the objective functions. The results can be used...

Convergence of finite difference schemes for viscous and inviscid conservation laws with rough coefficients

Kenneth Hvistendahl Karlsen, Nils Henrik Risebro (2001)

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

We consider the initial value problem for degenerate viscous and inviscid scalar conservation laws where the flux function depends on the spatial location through a “rough” coefficient function k ( x ) . We show that the Engquist-Osher (and hence all monotone) finite difference approximations converge to the unique entropy solution of the governing equation if, among other demands, k ' is in B V , thereby providing alternative (new) existence proofs for entropy solutions of degenerate convection-diffusion equations...

Description of the multi-dimensional finite volume solver EULER

Pavel Šolín, Karel Segeth (2002)

Applications of Mathematics

This paper is aimed at the description of the multi-dimensional finite volume solver EULER, which has been developed for the numerical solution of the compressible Euler equations during several last years. The present overview of numerical schemes and the explanation of numerical techniques and tricks which have been used for EULER could be of certain interest not only for registered users but also for numerical mathematicians who have decided to implement a finite volume solver themselves. This...

existence of solutions for an elliptic-algebraic system describing heat explosion in a two-phase medium

Cristelle Barillon, Georgy M. Makhviladze, Vitaly A. Volpert (2010)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis

The paper is devoted to analysis of an elliptic-algebraic system of equations describing heat explosion in a two phase medium filling a star-shaped domain. Three types of solutions are found: classical, critical and multivalued. Regularity of solutions is studied as well as their behavior depending on the size of the domain and on the coefficient of heat exchange between the two phases. Critical conditions of existence of solutions are found for arbitrary positive source function.
