We discuss the sharp interface limit of a diffuse interface model for a two-phase flow of two partly miscible viscous Newtonian fluids of different densities, when a certain parameter \epsilon>0 related to the interface thickness tends to…
We consider a two-phase problem for two incompressible, viscous and immiscible fluids which are separated by a sharp interface. The problem arises as a sharp interface limit of a diffuse interface model. We present results on local…
Even the most simplified models of falling and gliding bodies exhibit rich nonlinear dynamical behavior. Taking a global view of the dynamics of one such model, we find an attracting invariant manifold that acts as the dominant organizing…
Many physical systems are well described on domains which are relatively large in some directions but relatively thin in other directions. In this scenario we typically expect the system to have emergent structures that vary slowly over the…
We consider complex dynamical systems showing metastable behavior but no local separation of fast and slow time scales. The article raises the question of whether such systems exhibit a low-dimensional manifold supporting its effective…
This paper is an attempt to classify finite-time singularities of PDEs. Most of the problems considered describe free-surface flows, which are easily observed experimentally. We consider problems where the singularity occurs at a point, and…
We develop and analyze a highly efficient, second-order time-marching scheme for infinite-dimensional nonlinear geophysical fluid models, designed to accurately approximate invariant measures-that is, the stationary statistical properties…
We consider the mathematical analysis and numerical approximation of a system of nonlinear partial differential equations that arises in models that have relevance to steady isochoric flows of colloidal suspensions. The symmetric velocity…
We study the planar and scalar reductions of the nonlinear Lindemann mechanism of unimolecular decay. First, we establish that the origin, a degenerate critical point, is globally asymptotically stable. Second, we prove there is a unique…
We study a Wong-Zakai approximation for the random slow manifold of a slow-fast stochastic dynamical system. We first deduce the existence of the random slow manifold about an approximation system driven by an integrated Ornstein-Uhlenbeck…
This paper studies the stability of velocity-pressure mixed approximations of the Stokes problem when different finite element (FE) spaces for each component of the velocity field are considered. We consider some new combinations of…
A fast convergence in a fixed-time of solutions of nonlinear dynamical systems, for which special requirements are satisfied on the derivative of a quadratic function calculated along the solutions of the system, is proposed. The conditions…
Using the method of equivariant moving frames, we present a procedure for constructing symmetry-preserving finite element methods for second-order ordinary differential equations. Using the method of lines, we then indicate how our…
The long-time behaviour of spin-spin correlators in the slow relaxation of systems undergoing phase-ordering kinetics is studied in geometries of finite size. A phenomenological finite-size scaling ansatz is formulated and tested through…
We consider a recent plate model obtained as a scaled limit of the three dimensional Biot system of poro-elasticity. The result is a "2.5" dimensional linear system that couples traditional Euler-Bernoulli plate dynamics to a pressure…
We use a dynamical systems approach to study Bianchi type VI$_0$ cosmological models containing two tilted $\gamma$-law perfect fluids. The full state space is 11-dimensional, but the existence of a monotonic function simplifies the…
Consider briefly the equations of fluid dynamics-they describe the enormous wealth of detail in all the interacting physical elements of a fluid flow-whereas in applications we want to deal with a description of just that which is…
In this paper we study the vanishing inertia and viscosity limit of a second order system set in an Euclidean space, driven by a possibly nonconvex time-dependent potential satisfying very general assumptions. By means of a variational…
We consider nonlocal nonlinear potentials and estimate the rate of convergence of time stepping schemes to the peridynamic equation of motion. We begin by establishing the existence of $H^2$ solutions over any finite time interval. Here…
