In this paper, we propose a variational Lagrangian scheme for a modified phase-field model, which can compute the equilibrium states for the original Allen-Cahn type model. Our discretization is based on a prescribed energy-dissipation law…
The Serre-Green-Naghdi system is a coupled, fully nonlinear system of dispersive evolution equations which approximates the full water wave problem. The system is an extension of the well known shallow-water system to the situation where…
This note is to concern a generalization to the case of twisted coefficients of the classical theory of Abelian differentials on a compact Riemann surface. We apply the Dirichlet's principle to a modified energy functional to show the…
The Green-Naghdi system is used to model highly nonlinear weakly dispersive waves propagating at the surface of a shallow layer of a perfect fluid. The system has three associated conservation laws which describe the conservation of mass,…
We consider the dynamic Biot model (see [Biot, M. A. J. Appl. Phys. 33, 1482--1498 (1962)]) describing the interaction between fluid flow and solid deformation including wave propagation phenomena in both the liquid and solid phases of a…

We show that a Galilean invariant version of fluid dynamics can be derived by the methods of statistical dynamics using Maxwell's balance equations. The basic equation is non-local, and might replace Boltzmann's equation if the latter turns…
We establish improved versions of the Hardy and Caffarelli-Kohn-Nirenberg inequalities by replacing the standard Dirichlet energy with some nonlocal nonconvex functionals which have been involved in estimates for the topological degree of…

Discontinuous Galerkin methods are developed for solving the Vlasov-Maxwell system, methods that are designed to be systematically as accurate as one wants with provable conservation of mass and possibly total energy. Such properties in…
We derive a rigorous scaling law for minimizers in a natural version of the regularized Cross-Newell model for pattern formation far from threshold. These energy-minimizing solutions support defects having the same character as what is seen…

In the present paper, we revisit gravitational theories which are invariant under TDiffs -- transverse (volume preserving) diffeomorphisms and global scale transformations. It is known that these theories can be rewritten in an equivalent…
A new averaging method linking discrete to continuum variables of granular materials is developed and used to derive average balance equations. Its novelty lies in the choice of the decomposition between mean values and fluctuations of…
We develop an entropy-stable nodal discontinuous Galerkin (DG) scheme for the Euler equations with gravity, which is also well-balanced with respect to general equilibrium solutions, including both hydrostatic and moving equilibria. The…
Some hyperbolic systems are known to include implicit preservation of differential constraints: these are for example the time conservation of the curl or the divergence of a vector that appear as an implicit constraint. In this article, we…
