Binary-fluid flows can be modeled using the Navier-Stokes-Cahn-Hilliard equations, which represent the boundary between the fluid constituents by a diffuse interface. The diffuse-interface model allows for complex geometries and topological…

We study the diffusion (or heat) equation on a finite 1-dimensional spatial domain, but we replace one of the boundary conditions with a "nonlocal condition", through which we specify a weighted average of the solution over the spatial…

Motivated by a new kind of initial boundary value problem (IBVP) with a free boundary arising in wave-structure interaction, we propose here a general approach to one-dimensional IBVP as well as transmission problems. For general strictly…
