Convergence of the one-dimensional Cahn-Hilliard equation

open access: yes, 2012
We consider the Cahn-Hilliard equation in one space dimension with scaling a small parameter \epsilon and a non-convex potential W. In the limit \espilon \to 0, under the assumption that the initial data are energetically well-prepared, we show the ...

Stefan Problem and Intrusions

open access: yes, 2020
A Stefan problem (also Stefan task) is a particular kind of boundary value problem for a partial differential equation (PDE), adapted to the case in which a phase boundary can move with time. The classical Stefan problem aims to describe the temperature distribution in a homogeneous medium undergoing a phase change, for example ice passing to water ...

Photon‐Sphere Modes in Curved Optical Microcavities: A Black‐Hole Analogue Laser

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
An optical analogue of a Schwarzschild black hole is realized using curved microcavities that preserve light‐like geodesics. A new family of laser modes confined around the photon sphere is identified alongside conventional whispering‐gallery modes. Analytical theory, numerical simulations, and experiments reveal curvature‐induced confinement, enabling

Newton-Product Integration for a Stefan Problem with Kinetics [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Sciences, Islamic Republic of Iran, 2011
Stefan problem with kinetics is reduced to a system of nonlinear Volterra integral equations of second kind and Newton's method is applied to linearize it. Product integration solution of the linear form is found and sufficient conditions for convergence

Backstepping Control of the One-Phase Stefan Problem

open access: yes, 2016
In this paper, a backstepping control of the one-phase Stefan Problem, which is a 1-D diffusion Partial Differential Equation (PDE) defined on a time varying spatial domain described by an ordinary differential equation (ODE), is studied. A new nonlinear

A Cationic Supramolecule With Potent Antifungal Activity, Single‐Species Selectivity, and Strong Synergy With Echinocandins

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
We introduce a new membrane‐active antifungal design, Gua‐SMACS‐16, that exhibits high potency and single‐species selectivity for C. tropicalis while sparing other close species in the Candida genus. Moreover, when combining with caspofungin, a clinical antifungal drug inhibiting 1,3‐β‐glucan synthase, they exhibit ultra‐strong synergy across a panel ...

The Impacts of Health and Environmental Information Nudges on Meat Choices: Where Does Goat Meat Fit?

open access: yesAgribusiness, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Amidst a recent surge in US goat meat imports to meet growing demand, this study contributes to the meat demand literature by examining consumer preferences for goat meat, a relatively healthy and environmentally friendly alternative to other popular meats.

The motion of the soil freezing front with account of the temperature distribution [PDF]

open access: yesE3S Web of Conferences, 2019
The Stefan problem in the heat propagation in a two-phase region, which is relevant in the study of the processes of motion of the freezing boundary, taking into account the properties of both frozen and thawed soil, has been considered.

Uncovering renewable energy policy impact channels on land values, the local farm structure, and farmland heterogeneity

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract Germany's Renewable Energy Sources Act (REA), enacted in 2000 and subsequently amended, subsidized national renewable energy production with fixed feed‐in tariffs for renewable energy sources (RE) from wind, solar, and biogas. Empirical studies suggest that the policy was creating windfall effects for landowners and attribute farmland use ...

One-phase Stefan problem with a latent heat depending on the position of the free boundary and its rate of change

open access: yesElectronic Journal of Differential Equations, 2018
From the one-dimensional consolidation of fine-grained soils with threshold gradient, it can be derived a special type of Stefan problems where the seepage front, because of the presence of this threshold gradient, exhibits the features of a moving ...
