Attractors of Strongly Dissipative Systems

A. G. Ramm (2009)

Bulletin of the Polish Academy of Sciences. Mathematics

A class of infinite-dimensional dissipative dynamical systems is defined for which there exists a unique equilibrium point, and the rate of convergence to this point of the trajectories of a dynamical system from the above class is exponential. All the trajectories of the system converge to this point as t → +∞, no matter what the initial conditions are. This class consists of strongly dissipative systems. An example of such systems is provided by passive systems in network theory (see, e.g., MR0601947...

Behaviour of global solutions for a system of reaction-diffusion equations from combustion theory

Salah Badraoui (1999)

Applicationes Mathematicae

We are concerned with the boundedness and large time behaviour of the solution for a system of reaction-diffusion equations modelling complex consecutive reactions on a bounded domain under homogeneous Neumann boundary conditions. Using the techniques of E. Conway, D. Hoff and J. Smoller [3] we also show that the bounded solution converges to a constant function as t → ∞. Finally, we investigate the rate of this convergence.

Combustion in hydraulically resisted flows.

Gregory I. Sivashinsky (2007)

RACSAM

The effects of hydraulic resistance on premixed gas combustion in tubes and inert porous beds are discussed on the basis of recent research. It is found that the hydraulic resistance causes a gradual precompression and preheating of the unburned gas adjacent to the advancing deflagration which may lead (after an extended induction period) to a localized thermal explosion triggering an abrupt transition from deglagrative to detonative combustion. The hydraulic resistance has a profound effect also...

Comportamiento asintótico de las ecuaciones de la termoelasticidad generalizada.

Alberto Falqués Serra (1982)

Stochastica

In this paper it is first shown that the linear evolution equations for a generalized thermoelastic solid generate a C0 semigroup. Next an analysis of the long time evolution behaviour yields the some results known for classical thermoelasticity: generically, the natural state is asymptotically stable.

Computation of bifurcated branches in a free boundary problem arising in combustion theory

Olivier Baconneau, Claude-Michel Brauner, Alessandra Lunardi (2010)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis

We consider a parabolic 2D Free Boundary Problem, with jump conditions at the interface. Its planar travelling-wave solutions are orbitally stable provided the bifurcation parameter u * does not exceed a critical value u * c . The latter is the limit of a decreasing sequence ( u * k ) of bifurcation points. The paper deals with the study of the 2D bifurcated branches from the planar branch, for small k. Our technique is based on the elimination of the unknown front, turning the problem into a fully nonlinear...

Computational approaches to some inverse problems from engineering practice

Vala, Jiří (2015)

Programs and Algorithms of Numerical Mathematics

Development of engineering structures and technologies frequently works with advanced materials, whose properties, because of their complicated microstructure, cannot be predicted from experience, unlike traditional materials. The quality of computational modelling of relevant physical processes, based mostly on the principles of classical thermomechanics, is conditioned by the reliability of constitutive relations, coming from simplified experiments. The paper demonstrates some possibilities of...

Computational approaches to the design of low-energy buildings

Jarošová, Petra (2015)

Programs and Algorithms of Numerical Mathematics

European and Czech directives and technical standards, approved in several last years, force substantial changes in thermal behaviour of all buildings, including new and reconstructed one- or more-family houses, block of fl ats, etc., especially radical decrease of their energy requirements. This stimulates the development of advanced materials, structures and technologies. Since no reliable experience with their design is available, robust and non-expensive computational simulation approaches,...
