Multiscale homogenization of a class of nonlinear equations with applications in lubrication theory and applications

open access: yesJournal of Function Spaces, Volume 9, Issue 1, Page 17-40, 2011., 2011
We prove a homogenization result for monotone operators by using the method of multiscale convergence. More precisely, we study the asymptotic behavior as ε → 0 of the solutions uε of the nonlinear equation div⁡aε(x, ∇uε) = div⁡bε, where both aε and bε oscillate rapidly on several microscopic scales and aε satisfies certain continuity, monotonicity and

Global well-posedness for the critical 2D dissipative quasi-geostrophic equation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
We give an elementary proof of the global well-posedness for the critical 2D dissipative quasi-geostrophic equation. The argument is based on a non-local maximum principle involving appropriate moduli of continuity.Comment: 7 ...

Travelling wave solutions to some PDEs of mathematical physics

open access: yesInternational Journal of Mathematics and Mathematical Sciences, Volume 2004, Issue 21, Page 1105-1120, 2004., 2004
Nonlinear operations such as multiplication of distributions are not allowed in the classical theory of distributions. As a result, some ambiguities arise when we want to solve nonlinear partial differential equations such as differential equations of elasticity and multifluid flows, or some new cosmological models such as signature changing space ...

The continuum limit of Follow-the-Leader models - a short proof [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
We offer a simple and self-contained proof that the Follow-the-Leader model converges to the Lighthill-Whitham-Richards model for traffic ...

Symmetry group analysis and invariant solutions of hydrodynamic‐type systems

open access: yesInternational Journal of Mathematics and Mathematical Sciences, Volume 2004, Issue 10, Page 487-534, 2004., 2004
We study point and higher symmetries of systems of the hydrodynamic type with and without an explicit dependence on t, x. We consider such systems which satisfy the existence conditions for an infinite‐dimensional group of hydrodynamic symmetries which implies linearizing transformations for these systems.

Asymptotics for critical nonconvective type equations

open access: yesInternational Journal of Mathematics and Mathematical Sciences, Volume 2004, Issue 8, Page 377-405, 2004., 2004
We study large‐time asymptotic behavior of solutions to the Cauchy problem for a model of nonlinear dissipative evolution equation. The linear part is a pseudodifferential operator and the nonlinearity is a cubic pseudodifferential operator defined by means of the inverse Fourier transformation and represented by bilinear and trilinear forms with ...

On the existence of weak solutions for the initial‐boundary value problem in the Jeffreys model of motion of a viscoelastic medium

open access: yesAbstract and Applied Analysis, Volume 2004, Issue 10, Page 815-829, 2004., 2004
This paper deals with the initial‐boundary value problem for the system of motion equations of an incompressible viscoelastic medium with Jeffreys constitutive law in an arbitrary domain of two‐dimensional or three‐dimensional space. The existence of weak solutions of this problem is obtained.

A Beale-Kato-Madja breakdown criterion for an Oldroyd-B fluid in the creeping flow regime [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
We derive a criterion for the breakdown of solutions to the Oldroyd-B model in R3 in the limit of zero Reynolds number (creeping flow). If the initial stress field is in the Sobolev space Hm(R3), m > 5/2, then either a unique solution exists within this ...

The evolution of dust emitted by a uniform source above ground level

open access: yesInternational Journal of Mathematics and Mathematical Sciences, Volume 2003, Issue 52, Page 3327-3343, 2003., 2003
A uniform source situated at a fixed location starts to emit dust at a certain time, t = 0, and maintains the same action for t > 0. The subsequent spread of the dust into space is governed by an initial boundary value problem of the atmospheric diffusion equation.

Surge motion on a floating cylinder in water of finite depth

open access: yesInternational Journal of Mathematics and Mathematical Sciences, Volume 2003, Issue 57, Page 3643-3656, 2003., 2003
We derived added mass and damping coefficients of a vertical floating circular cylinder due to surge motion in calm water of finite depth. This is done by deriving the velocity potential for the cylinder by considering two regions, namely, interior region and exterior region.
