We study the asymptotic limit of diffused surface energy in the van der Waals--Cahn--Hillard theory when an advection term is added and the energy is uniformly bounded. We prove that the limit interface is an integral varifold and the…
We consider the Cauchy problem for the repulsive Vlasov-Poisson system in the three dimensional space, where the initial datum is the sum of a diffuse density, assumed to be bounded and integrable, and a point charge. Under some decay…
The three-dimensional quasi-geostrophic equation is considered over a cylindrical domain with a multiply connected horizontal cross-section. Homogeneous Neumann boundary conditions, tantamount to homogeneous density fields, are imposed on…

The derivation of the Allen-Cahn and Cahn-Hilliard equations is based on the Clausius-Duhem inequality. This is not a derivation in the strict sense of the word, since other phase field equations can be fomulated satisfying this inequality.…

We consider the parabolic one-dimensional Allen-Cahn equation $$u_t= u_{xx}+ u(1-u^2)\quad (x,t)\in \mathbb{R}\times (-\infty, 0].$$ The steady state $w(x) =\tanh (x/\sqrt{2})$, connects, as a "transition layer" the stable phases $-1$ and…
We consider mean curvature flow of n-dimensional surface clusters. At (n-1)-dimensional triple junctions an angle condition is required which in the symmetric case reduces to the well-known 120 degree angle condition. Using a novel…
We use extended Cahn-Hilliard (ECH) equations to study faceted precipitate morphologies; specifically, we obtain four sided precipitates (in 2-D) and dodecahedron (in 3-D) in a system with cubic anisotropy, and, six-sided precipitates (in…
We investigate the sharp interface limit of a diffuse interface system that couples the Allen--Cahn equation with the instationary Navier--Stokes system in a bounded domain in $\mathbb{R}^d$ with $d \in \{2,3\}$. This model is used to…
A mathematical model describing the flow of two-phase fluids in a bounded container $\Omega$ is considered under the assumption that the phase transition process is influenced by inertial effects. The model couples a variant of the…
We consider single-phase flow with solute transport where ions in the fluid can precipitate and form a mineral, and where the mineral can dissolve and release solute into the fluid. Such a setting includes an evolving interface between…
In this paper we propose a numerical Riemann problem solver at the junction of one dimensional shallow-water canal networks. The junction conditions take into account the angles with which the channels intersect and include the possibility…
