In this article we implement different numerical schemes to simulate the Schrödinger-Debye equations that occur in nonlinear optics. Since the existence of blow-up solutions is an open problem, we try to compute such solutions. The convergence of the methods is proved and simulations seem indeed to show that for at least small delays self-focusing solutions may exist.
The subject of the paper is the derivation and analysis of evolution Galerkin schemes for the two dimensional Maxwell and linearized Euler equations. The aim is to construct a method which takes into account better the infinitely many directions of propagation of waves. To do this the initial function is evolved using the characteristic cone and then projected onto a finite element space. We derive the divergence-free property and estimate the dispersion relation as well. We present some numerical...
In this paper, we consider linear ordinary differential equations originating in electronic engineering, which exhibit exceedingly rapid oscillation. Moreover, the oscillation model is completely different from the familiar framework of asymptotic analysis of highly oscillatory integrals. Using a Bessel-function identity, we expand the oscillator into asymptotic series, and this allows us to extend Filon-type approach to this setting. The outcome is a time-stepping method that guarantees ...
In this work, we investigate the Perfectly Matched Layers (PML) introduced by Bérenger [3] for designing efficient numerical absorbing layers in electromagnetism. We make a mathematical analysis of this model, first via a modal analysis with standard Fourier techniques, then via energy techniques. We obtain uniform in time stability results (that make precise some results known in the literature) and state some energy decay results that illustrate the absorbing properties of the model. This last...

This paper is intended to provide the reader with a review of the authors’ latest results dealing with the modeling of quantum dissipation/diffusion effects at the level of Schrödinger systems, in connection with the corresponding phase space and fluid formulations of such kind of phenomena, especially in what concerns the role of the Fokker–Planck mechanism in the description of open quantum systems and the macroscopic dynamics associated with some viscous hydrodynamic models of Euler and Navier–Stokes...
We analyse the effect of the mechanical response of the solid phase during liquid/solid phase change by numerical simulation of a benchmark test based on the well-known and debated experiment of melting of a pure gallium slab counducted by Gau & Viskanta in 1986. The adopted mathematical model includes the description of the melt flow and of the solid phase deformations. Surprisingly the conclusion reached is that, even in this case of pure material, the contribution of the solid phase to the...
This paper is concerned with a PDE-constrained optimization problem of induction heating, where the state equations consist of 3D time-dependent heat equations coupled with 3D time-harmonic eddy current equations. The control parameters are given by finite real numbers representing applied alternating voltages which enter the eddy current equations via impressed current. The optimization problem is to find optimal voltages so that, under certain constraints on the voltages and the temperature, a...

In this paper we propose a new concept of quasi-uniform monotonicity weaker than the uniform monotonicity which has been developed in the study of nonlinear operator equation $Au=b$. We prove that if $A$ is a quasi-uniformly monotone and hemi-continuous operator, then $A^{-1}$ is strictly monotone, bounded and continuous, and thus the Galerkin approximations converge. Also we show an application of a quasi-uniformly monotone and hemi-continuous operator to the proof of the well-posedness and convergence...
We present a weak parametrix of the operator of the CFIE equation. An interesting feature of this parametrix is that it is compatible with different discretization strategies and hence allows for the construction of efficient preconditioners dedicated to the CFIE. Furthermore, one shows that the underlying operator of the CFIE verifies an uniform discrete Inf-Sup condition which allows to predict an original convergence result of the numerical solution of the CFIE to the exact one.
On exhibe dans cette note une paramétrix (au sens faible) de l'opérateur sous-jacent à l'équation CFIE de l'électromagnétisme. L'intérêt de cette paramétrix est de se prêter à différentes stratégies de discrétisation et ainsi de pouvoir être utilisée comme préconditionneur de la CFIE. On montre aussi que l'opérateur sous-jacent à la CFIE satisfait une condition Inf-Sup discrète uniforme, applicable aux espaces de discrétisation usuellement rencontrés en électromagnétisme, et qui permet d'établir...
We consider H(curl;Ω)-elliptic problems that have been discretized by means of Nédélec's edge elements on tetrahedral meshes. Such problems occur in the numerical computation of eddy currents. From the defect equation we derive localized expressions that can be used as a posteriori error estimators to control adaptive refinement. Under certain assumptions on material parameters and computational domains, we derive local lower bounds and a global upper bound for the total error measured in...
La compréhension du passage des équations de la mécanique des fluides compressibles aux équations incompressibles a fait de grands progrès ces vingt dernières années. L’objectif de cet exposé est de présenter l’évolution des méthodes mathématiques mises en œuvre pour étudier ce passage à la limite, depuis les travaux de S. Klainerman et A. Majda dans les années quatre–vingts, jusqu’à ceux récents de G. Métivier et S. Schochet (pour les équations non isentropiques). Suivant les conditions initiales...
We consider two atomic transitions excited by two variable laser fields in a three-level system. We study the soliton-pair propagation out of resonance and under thermal bath effect. We present general analytical implicit expression of the soliton-pair shape. Furthermore, we show that when the coupling to the environment exceeds a critical value, the soliton-pair propagation through three-level atomic system will be prohibited.
