We prove that penalization of constraints occuring in the linear elliptic Neumann problem yields directly the exact solution for an arbitrary set of penalty parameters. In this case there is a continuum of Lagrange's multipliers. The proposed penalty method is applied to calculate the magnetic field in the window of a transformer.
Energy functionals for the Preisach hysteresis operator are used for proving the existence of weak periodic solutions of the one-dimensional systems of Maxwell equations with hysteresis for not too large right-hand sides. The upper bound for the speed of propagation of waves is independent of the hysteresis operator.
Linear Force-free (or Beltrami) fields are three-components divergence-free fields solutions of the equation curlB = αB, where α is a real number. Such fields appear in many branches of physics like astrophysics, fluid mechanics, electromagnetics and plasma physics. In this paper, we deal with some related boundary value problems in multiply-connected bounded domains, in half-cylindrical domains and in exterior domains.
The solvability of time-harmonic Maxwell equations in the 3D-case with nonhomogeneous conductivities is considered by adapting Sobolev space technique and variational formulation of the problem in question. Moreover, a finite element approximation is presented in the 3D-case together with an error estimate in the energy norm. Some remarks are given to the 2D-problem arising from geophysics.
A multiphase generalization of the Monge–Kantorovich optimal transportation problem is addressed. Existence of optimal solutions is established. The optimality equations are related to classical Electrodynamics.
