Improved quality of life in patients with refractory or recidivant ascites after insertion of transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunts [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
Background. We have recently shown that the transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (TIPS) is more effective than paracentesis in the treatment of cirrhotic patients with severe ascites and can prolong survival in selected patients.

Bubble concentration on spheres for supercritical elliptic problems [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
We consider the supercritical Lane-Emden problem $$(P_\eps)\qquad -\Delta v= |v|^{p_\eps-1} v \ \hbox{in}\ \mathcal{A} ,\quad u=0\ \hbox{on}\ \partial\mathcal{A} $$ where $\mathcal A$ is an annulus in $\rr^{2m},$ $m\ge2$ and $p_\eps={(m+1)+2\over(m+1)

Controlled Drug Release Asymptotics [PDF]

open access: yes, 1998
The solution of Higushi's model for controlled release of drugs is examined when the solubility of the drug in the polymer matrix is a prescribed function of time. A time-dependent solubility results either from an external control or from a change in pH

Moderately close Neumann inclusions for the Poisson equation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
open2siWe investigate the behavior of the solution of a mixed problem for the Poisson equation in a domain with two moderately close holes. If ϱ1 and ϱ2 are two positive parameters, we define a perforated domain Ω(ϱ1,ϱ2) by making two small perforations ...

An Unusual Moving Boundary Condition Arising in Anomalous Diffusion Problems [PDF]

open access: yes, 1995
In the context of analyzing a new model for nonlinear diffusion in polymers, an unusual condition appears at the moving interface between the glassy and rubbery phases of the polymer.

Derivation of a Hele-Shaw type system from a cell model with active motion [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
We formulate a Hele-Shaw type free boundary problem for a tumor growing under the combined effects of pressure forces, cell multiplication and active motion, the latter being the novelty of the present paper.

Oscillatory and periodic solutions to a diffusion equation of neutral type

open access: yesInternational Journal of Mathematics and Mathematical Sciences, Volume 22, Issue 2, Page 313-348, 1999., 1999
We examine a PDE with piecewise constant time delay. The equation is of neutral type since it contains the derivative ut at different values of the t‐argument. Furthermore, the argument deviation changes its sign within intervals of unit length, so that the given PDE is alternately of retarded and advanced type.

Singularly perturbed telegraph equations with applications in the random walk theory

open access: yesInternational Journal of Stochastic Analysis, Volume 11, Issue 1, Page 9-28, 1998., 1997
In the paper we analyze singularly perturbed telegraph systems applying the newly developed compressed asymptotic method and show that the diffusion equation is an asymptotic limit of singularly perturbed telegraph system of equations. The results are applied to the random walk theory for which the relationship between correlated and uncorrelated ...

Boundary value problems for the diffusion equation with piecewise continuous time delay

open access: yesInternational Journal of Mathematics and Mathematical Sciences, Volume 20, Issue 1, Page 187-195, 1997., 1996
A study is made of partial differential equations with piecewise constant arguments. Boundary value problems for three types of equations are discussed delayed; alternately of advanced and retarded type; and most importantly, an equation of neutral type (that is, including the derivative at different values of time t).
