In this article, we study the behavior of the Abels-Garcke-Gr\"un Navier-Stokes-Cahn-Hilliard diffuse-interface model for binary-fluid flows, as the diffuse-interface thickness passes to zero. We consider this so-called sharp-interface…

This paper treats the solvability of a semilinear reaction-diffusion system, which incorporates transport (diffusion) and reaction effects emerging from two separated spatial scales: $x$ - macro and $y$ - micro. The system's origin connects…
Problems with localized nonhomogeneous material properties present well-known challenges for numerical simulations. In particular, such problems may feature large differences in length scales, causing difficulties with meshing and…

We consider the wave equation $\varepsilon^2(-\partial_t^2 + \Delta)u + f(u) = 0$ for $0<\varepsilon\ll 1$, where $f$ is the derivative of a balanced, double-well potential, the model case being $f(u) = u-u^3$. For equations of this form,…
In this paper we derive the continuum limit of a multiple-species, interacting particle system by proving a $\Gamma$-convergence result on the interaction energy as the number of particles tends to infinity. As the leading application, we…
