Some initial boundary problems in electrodynamics for canonical domains in quaternions

Erhard V. Meister, L. Meister (2001)

Mathematica Bohemica

The initial boundary-transmission problems for electromagnetic fields in homogeneous and anisotropic media for canonical semi-infinite domains, like halfspaces, wedges and the exterior of half- and quarter-plane obstacles are formulated with the use of complex quaternions. The time-harmonic case was studied by A. Passow in his Darmstadt thesis 1998 in which he treated also the case of an homogeneous and isotropic layer in free space and above an ideally conducting plane. For thin layers and free...

Some new results in multiphase geometrical optics

Olof Runborg (2010)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis

In order to accommodate solutions with multiple phases, corresponding to crossing rays, we formulate geometrical optics for the scalar wave equation as a kinetic transport equation set in phase space. If the maximum number of phases is finite and known a priori we can recover the exact multiphase solution from an associated system of moment equations, closed by an assumption on the form of the density function in the kinetic equation. We consider two different closure assumptions based on delta...

Stability analysis for acoustic waveguides. Part 3: impedance boundary conditions

Leszek Demkowicz, Jay Gopalakrishnan, Norbert Heuer (2024)

Applications of Mathematics

A model two-dimensional acoustic waveguide with lateral impedance boundary conditions (and outgoing boundary conditions at the waveguide outlet) is considered. The governing operator is proved to be bounded below with a stability constant inversely proportional to the length of the waveguide. The presence of impedance boundary conditions leads to a non self-adjoint operator which considerably complicates the analysis. The goal of this paper is to elucidate these complications and tools that are...

Stabilization methods in relaxed micromagnetism

Stefan A. Funken, Andreas Prohl (2005)

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

The magnetization of a ferromagnetic sample solves a non-convex variational problem, where its relaxation by convexifying the energy density resolves relevant macroscopic information. The numerical analysis of the relaxed model has to deal with a constrained convex but degenerated, nonlocal energy functional in mixed formulation for magnetic potential u and magnetization 𝐦 . In [C. Carstensen and A. Prohl, Numer. Math. 90 (2001) 65–99], the conforming P 1 - ( P 0 ) d -element in d = 2 , 3 spatial dimensions is shown to...

Static electromagnetic fields in monotone media

Rainer Picard (1992)

Banach Center Publications

The paper considers the static Maxwell system for a Lipschitz domain with perfectly conducting boundary. Electric and magnetic permeability ε and μ are allowed to be monotone and Lipschitz continuous functions of the electromagnetic field. The existence theory is developed in the framework of the theory of monotone operators.

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...
