Simulating the irreversible quantum dynamics of exciton and electron transfer problems poses a nontrivial challenge. Because the irreversibility of the system dynamics is a result of quantum thermal activation and dissipation caused by the…

We consider a second order singularly perturbed boundary value problem, of reaction-convection-diffusion type with two small parameters, and the approximation of its solution by the $hp$ version of the Finite Element Method on the so-called…

The problem of surface effects at a fluid boundary created by the force field of finite value is investigated. A classical simple fluid with a locally introduced field imitating a permeable solid is considered. The cases of micro- and…

We calculate binding energies of four molecular solids using the Hartree-Fock (HF) and second-order M{\o}ller-Plesset perturbation theory (MP2). We obtain the energies within many-body expansion (MBE) as well as using periodic boundary…

We study the thermalization dynamics of a quantum system embedded in an incommensurate potential and coupled to a Markovian thermal reservoir. The dephasing induced by the bath drives the system toward an infinite-temperature steady state,…

In this study, we derived a three-dimensional scaled boundary finite element formulation for heat conduction problems. By incorporating Wachspress shape functions, a polyhedral scaled boundary finite element method (PSBFEM) was proposed to…

We consider an interface problem often arising in transport problems: a coupled system of partial differential equations with one (elliptic) transport equation on a bounded domain and one equation (in this case the Laplace problem) on the…

A mathematically challenging model of dynamic wetting as a process of interface formation has been, for the first time, fully incorporated into a numerical code based on the finite element method and applied, as a test case, to the problem…

In this work, a thermal energy transfer problem in a one-dimensional multilayer body is theoretically analyzed, considering diffusion, advection, internal heat generation or loss linearly dependent on temperature in each layer, as well as…

We review the Mpemba effect, where intially hot water freezes faster than initially cold water. While the effect appears impossible at first sight, it has been seen in numerous experiments, was reported on by Aristotle, Francis Bacon, and…

Cell blebs are protrusions of the cell membrane and can be instrumental for cell migration. We derive a continuum model for the mechanical and geometrical aspects of the onset of blebbing in terms of a force balance. It is abstract and…

The experimental realization of dynamo excitation as well as theoretical and numerical examinations of the induction equation have shown the relevance of boundary conditions for a self-sustaining dynamo. Within the interior of a field…

We study the non-equilibrium dynamics of bosons in a two-dimensional optical lattice after a sudden quench from the superfluid phase to the free-boson regime. The initial superfluid state is described approximately using both the Bogoliubov…

Mandal and Jarzynski have proposed a fully autonomous information heat engine, consisting of a demon, a mass and a memory register interacting with a thermal reservoir. This device converts thermal energy into mechanical work by writing…

We consider the dynamics of two-phase fluids, in particular the moving contact line, on a solid substrate. The dynamics are governed by the sharp-interface model consisting of the incompressible Navier-Stokes\slash Stokes equations with the…

We present a compelling finite element framework to model hydrogen assisted fatigue by means of a hydrogen- and cycle-dependent cohesive zone formulation. The model builds upon: (i) appropriate environmental boundary conditions, (ii) a…

We consider the initial-boundary value problem in the quarter space for the system of equations of ideal Magneto-Hydrodynamics for compressible fluids with perfectly conducting wall boundary conditions. On the two parts of the boundary the…

We study a granular gas of viscoelastic particles (kinetic energy loss upon collision is a function of the particles' relative velocities at impact) subject to a stochastic thermostat. We show that the system displays anomalous cooling and…

We prove the convergence of an adaptive mixed finite element method (AMFEM) for (nonsymmetric) convection-diffusion-reaction equations. The convergence result holds from the cases where convection or reaction is not present to convection-or…

In the 1960s, Tanzanian student Erasto Mpemba and his teacher published an article with the title "Cool" in the journal Physics Education (Mpemba, E. B. - Osborne, D. G.: Cool?. In: Physics Education, vol.4, 1969, pp. 172-175.). In this…
