Existence of pulsating waves in a model of flames in sprays

Peter Constantin, Komla Domelevo, Jean-Michel Roquejoffre, Lenya Ryzhik (2006)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

A one-dimensional system describing the propagation of low Mach number flames in sprays is studied. We show that pulsating waves may exist when the droplet distribution in the unburnt region is spatially periodic. The range of possible propagation speeds may be either bounded or unbounded, depending on the threshold temperatures of the burning and vaporization rates.

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.

Existence of solutions for two types of generalized versions of the Cahn-Hilliard equation

Martin Heida (2015)

Applications of Mathematics

We show existence of solutions to two types of generalized anisotropic Cahn-Hilliard problems: In the first case, we assume the mobility to be dependent on the concentration and its gradient, where the system is supplied with dynamic boundary conditions. In the second case, we deal with classical no-flux boundary conditions where the mobility depends on concentration u , gradient of concentration u and the chemical potential Δ u - s ' ( u ) . The existence is shown using a newly developed generalization of gradient...

Exponential convergence to equilibrium via Lyapounov functionals for reaction-diffusion equations arising from non reversible chemical kinetics

Marzia Bisi, Laurent Desvillettes, Giampiero Spiga (2009)

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

We show that the entropy method, that has been used successfully in order to prove exponential convergence towards equilibrium with explicit constants in many contexts, among which reaction-diffusion systems coming out of reversible chemistry, can also be used when one considers a reaction-diffusion system corresponding to an irreversible mechanism of dissociation/recombination, for which no natural entropy is available.

Exponential stability and transfer functions of processes governed by symmetric hyperbolic systems

Cheng-Zhong Xu, Gauthier Sallet (2002)

ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations

In this paper we study the frequency and time domain behaviour of a heat exchanger network system. The system is governed by hyperbolic partial differential equations. Both the control operator and the observation operator are unbounded but admissible. Using the theory of symmetric hyperbolic systems, we prove exponential stability of the underlying semigroup for the heat exchanger network. Applying the recent theory of well-posed infinite-dimensional linear systems, we prove that the system is...

Extended thermodynamics---a theory of symmetric hyperbolic field equations

Ingo Müller (2008)

Applications of Mathematics

Extended thermodynamics is based on a set of equations of balance which are supplemented by local and instantaneous constitutive equations so that the field equations are quasi-linear differential equations of first order. If the constitutive functions are subject to the requirements of the entropy principle, one may write them in symmetric hyperbolic form by a suitable choice of fields. The kinetic theory of gases, or the moment theories based on the Boltzmann equation, provide an explicit example...
