This paper addresses a rescaling behavior of some classes of global solutions to the zero surface tension Hele-Shaw problem with injection at the origin, $\{\Omega(t)\}_{t\geq 0}$. Here $\Omega(0)$ is a small perturbation of $f(B_{1}(0),0)$…
The Polubarinova-Galin equation is derived from zero-surface-tension Hele-Shaw flow driven by injection. In this paper, we classify degree three polynomial solutions to the Polubarinova-Galin equation into three categories: global…
We study non-univalent solutions of the Polubarinova-Galin equation, describing the time evolution of the conformal map from the unit disk onto a Hele-Shaw blob of fluid subject to injection at one point. In particular, we tackle the…
We prove that the Cauchy problem is well-posed in a strong sense and in a general setting. Our main result is the construction of an abstract semi-flow for the Hele-Shaw problem within general fluid domains (enabling, for instance, changes…
Hele-Shaw flow at vanishing surface tension is ill-defined. In finite time, the flow develops cusp-like singularities. We show that the ill-defined problem admits a weak {\it dispersive} solution when singularities give rise to a graph of…
An useful approximation for the displacement of two immiscible fluids in a porous medium is the Hele-Shaw model. We consider several liquids with different constant viscosities, inserted between the displacing fluids. The linear stability…
We study a diffuse interface model describing the motion of two viscous fluids driven by the surface tension in a Hele-Shaw cell. The full system consists of the Cahn-Hilliard equation coupled with the Darcy's law. We address the physically…
We study the effects of some injection policies used in oil recovery process. The Saffman-Taylor instability occurs when a less viscous fluid is displacing a more viscous one, in a rectangular Hele-Shaw cell. The injection of $N$ successive…
We introduce and investigate a generalization of the Hele-Shaw flow with injection where several droplets compete for space as they try to expand due to internal pressure while still preserving their topology. Droplets are described by…
We analyze flow of non-Newtonian fluids in a Hele-Shaw cell, subjected to spatially non-uniform electroosmotic slip. Motivated by their potential use for increasing the characteristic pressure fields, we specifically focus on power-law…

The Hele-Shaw experiment is performed with a circular invasion to study the scaling and dynamic behavior of the interface. We did not find any universal power law. The time exponent varies with the range of scale, as has been reported in…
We investigate a generalized Hele-Shaw equation with a source and drift terms where the density is constrained by an upper-bound density constraint that varies in space and time. By using a generalized porous medium equation approximation,…
