We examine the existence of shock profiles for a hyperbolic-elliptic system arising in radiation hydrodynamics. The algebraic-differential system for the wave profile is reduced to a standard two-dimensional form that is analyzed in details…
This note aims at the following problem. In an ideal density dependent fluid system, is the total energy dissipated on shock type discontinuities? To this end, we study the local energy balance for weak solutions to the isentropic…
We return to the subject of stability of infinite time asymptotics of kinetic equations. We found a model which is simpler than those studied previously and which shows unstable behavior corresponding to our arguments to appear elsewhere,…
Some peculiarities of the exploitation of the entropy inequality in case of weakly nonlocal continuum theories are investigated and refined. As an example it is shown that the proper application of the Liu procedure leads to the…
This letter presents a kinetic closure of the filtered Boltzmann--BGK equation, paving the way toward an alternative description of turbulence. The closure retains the turbulent subfilter stress tensor without a separate Smagorinsky-type…
The KdV-Burgers equation is a canonical model describing the interplay between nonlinearity, viscosity and dispersion, and it admits viscous-dispersive shocks as traveling wave solutions. In this paper, we establish an $L^2$-contraction…
The thermodynamical model of visco-elastic deformable solids at finite strains is formulated in a fully Eulerian way in rates. Also effects of thermal expansion or buoyancy due to evolving mass density in a gravity field are covered. The…

We study a stationary 3D/2D fluid-structure interaction problem between an elastic structure described by the linear plate equation and a fluid described by the compressible Navier-Stokes equations with hard-sphere pressure and…
Using a simplified pointwise iteration scheme, we establish nonlinear phase-asymptotic orbital stability of large-amplitude Lax, undercompressive, overcompressive, and mixed under--overcompressive type shock profiles of strictly parabolic…
Undercompressive shocks are a special type of discontinuities that satisfy the viscous profile criterion rather than the Lax inequalities. These shocks can appear as a solution to systems of two or more conservation laws. This paper…
We consider kinetic and associated macroscopic equations on networks. The general approach will be explained in this paper for a linear kinetic BGK model and the corresponding limit for small Knudsen number, which is the wave equation.…
Nonstationary and nonequilibrium processes are considered on the basis of an Enskog-Landau kinetic equation using a boundary conditions method. A nonstationary solution of this equation is found in the pair collision approximation. This…
We describe an asymptotic procedure for deriving continuum equations from the kinetic theory of a simple gas. As in the works of Hilbert, of Chapman and of Enskog, we expand in the mean flight time of the constituent particles of the gas,…
Kinetic equations are often appropriate to model the energy density of high frequency waves propagating in highly heterogeneous media. The limitations of the kinetic model are quantified by the statistical instability of the wave energy…
We investigate the $L^p $ asymptotic behavior $(1\le p \le \infty)$ of a perturbation of a Lax or overcompressive type shock wave solution to a system of conservation law in one dimension. The system of the equations can be strictly…
We study the Landau-Lifshitz system associated with Maxwell equations in a bilayered ferromagnetic body when super-exchange and surface anisotropy interactions are present in the spacer in-between the layers. In the presence of these…
Going beyond the linearized study has been a longstanding problem in the theory of Landau damping. In this paper we establish exponential Landau damping in analytic regularity. The damping phenomenon is reinterpreted in terms of transfer of…
The Boltzmann equation for $d$-dimensional inelastic Maxwell models is considered to analyze transport properties for monodisperse gas-solid suspensions. The influence of the interstitial gas phase on the dynamics of solid particles is…
