We study the incompressible limit of the porous medium equation with a right hand side representing either a source or a sink term, and an injection boundary condition. This model can be seen as a simplified description of non-monotone…

We propose a method to determine the smoothness of sufficiently flat solutions of one phase Hele-Shaw problems. The novelty is the observation that under a flatness assumption the free boundary --represented by the hodograph transform of…

We present a unified numerical method to determine the shapes of multiple Hele-Shaw bubbles in steady motion, and in the absence of surface tension, in three planar domains: free space, the upper half-plane, and an infinite channel. Our…

We calculate the shape and the velocity of a bubble rising in an infinitely large and closed Hele-Shaw cell using Park and Homsy's boundary condition which accounts for the change of the three dimensional structure in the perimeter zone. We…

The free boundary problem for a two-dimensional fluid filtered in porous media is studied. This is known as the one-phase Muskat problem and is mathematically equivalent to the vertical Hele-Shaw problem driven by gravity force. We prove…

This brief note addresses the free boundary problem arising from the steady two-dimensional seepage flow through a rectangular dam. The flow problem consists in finding the free boundary location, and the velocity and pressure fields. The…
