We study the gradient-flow structure of a non-Newtonian thin film equation with power-law rheology. The equation is quasilinear, of fourth order and doubly-degenerate parabolic. By adding a singular potential to the natural Dirichlet…
We study the problem of existence and uniqueness of strong solutions to a degenerate quasilinear parabolic non-Newtonian thin-film equation. Originating from a non-Newtonian Navier--Stokes system the equation is derived by lubrication…
We study existence and long-time behavior of weak solutions to a thin-film equation with a confinement potential and a second-order degenerate diffusion term. It is known that in absence of second order effects, solutions for general…
A fully coupled system of two second-order parabolic degenerate equations arising as a thin film approximation to the Muskat problem is interpreted as a gradient flow for the 2-Wasserstein distance in the space of probability measures with…
We prove existence of weak solutions of a fractional thin film type equation in any space dimension and for any order of the equation. The proof is based on a gradient flow technique in the space of Borel probability measures endowed with…
In this paper, we consider a family of one-dimensional fourth order evolution equations arising as gradient flows of the Korteweg energy, i.e. the $L^2$-norm of the first derivative of some power of the density. This family of equations…
We study existence and long-time behaviour of strong solutions for the thin film equation using a priori estimates in a weighted Sobolev space. This equation can be classified as a doubly degenerate fourth-order parabolic and it models…
In this technical report, we consider a nonlinear 4th-order degenerate parabolic partial differential equation that arises in modelling the dynamics of an incompressible thin liquid film on the outer surface of a rotating horizontal…
In this paper we prove the global existence of a strong solution to the initial boundary value problem for the exponential partial differential equation $\partial_tu-\Delta e^{-\Delta u}+e^{-\Delta u}-1=0$. The equation was proposed as a…
The thin-film equation $\partial_t u = -\nabla \cdot (u^n \nabla \Delta u)$ describes the evolution of the height $u=u(x,t)\geq 0$ of a viscous thin liquid film spreading on a flat solid surface. We prove H\"older continuity of…
We consider a nonlinear 4th-order degenerate parabolic partial differential equation that arises in modelling the dynamics of an incompressible thin liquid film on the outer surface of a rotating horizontal cylinder in the presence of…
In this article we study the existence of solutions to a fourth-order nonlinear PDE related to crystal surface growth. The key difficulty in the equations comes from the mobility matrix, which depends on the gradient of the solution. When…
In this paper, we establish a novel approach to proving existence of non-negative weak solutions for degenerate parabolic equations of fourth order, like the Cahn-Hilliard and certain thin film equations. The considered evolution equations…
This paper investigates the asymptotic behavior of strong solutions to a family of nonlinear fourth-order evolution equations on the real line, with particular focus on the thin-film equation $\partial_tu = -(uu_{xxx})_x$. The method builds…
In this paper we study the equations governing the unsteady motion of an incompressible homogeneous generalized second grade fluid subject to periodic boundary conditions. We establish the existence of global-in-time strong solutions for…
In this paper we study the initial boundary value problem for the system $\Delta v= u_{x_1},\ u_t-\mbox{div}\left(\left((a|\mathbf{q}|+m)I+(b-a)\frac{\mathbf{q}\otimes\mathbf{q}}{|\mathbf{q}|}\right)\nabla u\right)=-\nabla…
We consider a third order non-autonomous ODE that arises as a model of fluid accumulation in a two dimensional thin-film flow driven by surface tension and gravity. With the appropriate matching conditions, the equation describes the inner…
We consider a gradient flow modeling the epitaxial growth of thin films with slope selection. The surface height profile satisfies a nonlinear diffusion equation with biharmonic dissipation. We establish optimal local and global…
We consider following fourth-order parabolic equation with gradient nonlinearity on the two-dimensional torus with and without advection of an incompressible vector field in the case $2<p<3$: \begin{equation*} \partial_t u + (-\Delta)^2 u =…
The initial-boundary value problem for the density-dependent incompressible flow of liquid crystals is studied in a three-dimensional bounded smooth domain. For the initial density away from vacuum, the existence and uniqueness is…
