Strichartz Type Estimates for Oscillatory Problems for Semilinear Wave Equation

Di Pomponio, Stefania (2000)

Serdica Mathematical Journal

The author is partially supported by: M. U. R. S. T. Prog. Nazionale “Problemi e Metodi nella Teoria delle Equazioni Iperboliche”.We treat the oscillatory problem for semilinear wave equation. The oscillatory initial data are of the type u(0, x) = h(x) + ε^(σ+1) * e^(il(x)/ε) * b0 (ε, x) ∂t u(0, x) = ε^σ * e^(il(x)/ε) * b1(ε, x). By using suitable variants of Strichartz estimate we extend the results from [6] on a priori estimates of the approximations of geometric optics.The main improvement...

Suggestion from the Past?

Machado, J., Jesus, Isabel (2004)

Fractional Calculus and Applied Analysis

Mathematics Subject Classification: 26A33 (main), 35A22, 78A25, 93A30The generalization of the concept of derivative to non-integer values goes back to the beginning of the theory of differential calculus. Nevertheless, its application in physics and engineering remained unexplored up to the last two decades. Recent research motivated the establishment of strategies taking advantage of the Fractional Calculus (FC) in the modeling and control of many phenomena. In fact, many classical engineering...

Superconvergence of mixed finite element semi-discretizations of two time-dependent problems

Jan Brandts (1999)

Applications of Mathematics

We will show that some of the superconvergence properties for the mixed finite element method for elliptic problems are preserved in the mixed semi-discretizations for a diffusion equation and for a Maxwell equation in two space dimensions. With the help of mixed elliptic projection we will present estimates global and pointwise in time. The results for the Maxwell equations form an extension of existing results. For both problems, our results imply that post-processing and a posteriori error estimation...

Sur le système de Nernst-Planck-Poisson-Boltzmann résultant de l’homogénéisation par convergence à double échelle

Gérard Gagneux, Olivier Millet (2014)

Annales de la faculté des sciences de Toulouse Mathématiques

Le système d’évolution de Nernst-Planck-Poisson-Boltzmann modélise les transferts ioniques en milieu poreux saturé en prenant en compte des interactions électrocapillaires au contact du substrat. Ce modèle présente un intérêt particulier en génie civil pour étudier la dégradation par corrosion des matériaux cimentaires, à structure micro-locale périodique, sous l’effet des ions chlorures. Les techniques d’homogénéisation sont alors un outil puissant pour élaborer un modèle macroscopique équivalent...

Sur un problème de stabilité posé en optique géométrique non linéaire surcritique

Christophe Cheverry (2008/2009)

Séminaire Équations aux dérivées partielles

Cet exposé s’intéresse à un modèle réaliste issu de la mécanique des fluides. L’objectif est de montrer qu’il est possible de traiter dans un tel cadre des problèmes d’instabilité soulevés par la propagation de singularités qualifiées de surcritiques. D’abord, nous introduisons le modèle (équations de type Navier-Stokes) et ses motivations (questions liées à la propagation d’oscillations en régime turbulent). Ensuite, nous présentons deux résultats (relatifs au caractère bien posé d’un problème...

Symmetric caustics and Curie's principle

Alain Joets, Ahmed Belaidi, Roland Ribotta (2003)

Banach Center Publications

Physical systems producing caustics may possess symmetries. In that case the relation between the symmetry of the system, considered as a whole, and the symmetry of the caustic follow a very general symmetry principle, the Curie principle. We give various examples of application of the Curie principle to caustics produced by the deflection of light in liquid crystals: the so called squint effect, the visualization of a new type of roll structure, etc. We show also that the Curie principle applies...

Symplectic local time-stepping in non-dissipative DGTD methods applied to wave propagation problems

Serge Piperno (2006)

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

The Discontinuous Galerkin Time Domain (DGTD) methods are now popular for the solution of wave propagation problems. Able to deal with unstructured, possibly locally-refined meshes, they handle easily complex geometries and remain fully explicit with easy parallelization and extension to high orders of accuracy. Non-dissipative versions exist, where some discrete electromagnetic energy is exactly conserved. However, the stability limit of the methods, related to the smallest elements in the mesh,...
