We propose fully discrete, implicit-in-time finite-volume schemes for a general family of non-linear and non-local Fokker-Planck equations with a gradient-flow structure, usually known as aggregation-diffusion equations, in any dimension.…
Modern analyses of diffusion processes have proposed nonlinear versions of the Fokker-Planck equation to account for non-classical diffusion. These nonlinear equations are usually constructed on a phenomenological basis. Here we introduce a…
Convection-diffusion equations provide the basis for describing heat and mass transfer phenomena as well as processes of continuum mechanics. To handle flows in porous media, the fundamental issue is to model correctly the convective…

We establish the global existence of weak solutions for a two-species cross-diffusion system, set on the 1-dimensional flat torus, in which the evolution of each species is governed by two mechanisms. The first of these is a diffusion which…

We study the discrete Fokker-Planck equation associated with the mean-field dynamics of a particle system called the dispersion process. For different regimes of the average number of particles per site (denoted by $\mu > 0$), we establish…
We study a quasilinear parabolic Cauchy problem with a cumulative distribution function on the real line as an initial condition. We call 'probabilistic solution' a weak solution which remains a cumulative distribution function at all…
In the mathematical modelling of compactional flow in porous media, the constitutive relation is typically modelled in terms of a nonlinear relationship between effective pressure and porosity, and compaction is essentially poroelastic.…

This paper is devoted to the study of the stochastic-periodic homogenization of Poisson-Nernst-Planck equations in porous media. It is shown by the stochastic two-scale convergence method extended to periodic surfaces that results in a…
Diffusion of particles through an heterogenous obstacle line is modeled as a two-dimensional diffusion problem with a one--directional nonlinear convective drift and is examined using two-scale asymptotic analysis. At the scale where the…
We solve a physically significant extension of a classic problem in the theory of diffusion, namely the Ornstein-Uhlenbeck process [G. E. Ornstein and L. S. Uhlenbeck, Phys. Rev. 36, 823, (1930)]. Our generalised Ornstein-Uhlenbeck systems…
