We study a class of fourth order curvature flows on a compact Riemannian manifold, which includes the gradient flows of a number of quadratic geometric functionals, as for instance the L2 norm of the curvature. Such flows can develop a…

We study a one-dimensional nonlocal degenerate fourth-order parabolic equation with inhomogeneous forces relevant to hydraulic fracture modeling. Employing a regularization scheme, modified energy/entropy methods, and novel differential…

A thin film on a horizontal solid substrate and coated with a soluble surfactant is considered. The governing degenerate parabolic equations for the film height and the surfactant concentrations on the surface and in the bulk are derived…

We prove the well-posedness of entropy solutions for a wide class of nonlocal transport equations with nonlinear mobility in one spatial dimension. The solution is obtained as the limit of approximations constructed via a deterministic…

Let n>2, $0<m\le (n-2)/n$, p>\max(1,(1-m)n/2), and $0\le u_0\in L_{loc}^p(R^n)$ satisfy $\liminf_{R\to\infty}R^{-n+\frac{2}{1-m}}\int_{|x|\le R}u_0\,dx=\infty$. We prove the existence of unique global classical solution of…

We consider an elliptic differential inequality: $\vert \Delta u(x) \vert \le C_0(\YYYY^{-\gamma}\vert u(x)\vert + \YYYY^{-\theta}\vert \nabla u(x)\vert)$ in an exterior domain $\R^n \setminus \ooo{U}$, where $U$ is a simply connected…

This paper provides results on local and global existence for a class of solutions to the Euler equations for an incompressible, inviscid fluid. By considering a class of solutions which exhibits a characteristic growth at infinity we…

We establish global existence of solutions to the compressible Euler equations, in the case that a finite volume of ideal gas expands into vacuum. Vacuum states can occur with either smooth or singular sound speed, the latter corresponding…

In this paper, we consider the Dirichlet problem of inhomogeneous incompressible nematic liquid crystal equations in bounded smooth domains of two or three dimensions. We prove the global existence and uniqueness of strong solutions with…

We consider the problem of global in time existence and uniqueness of solutions of the 3-D infinite depth full water wave problem. We show that the nature of the nonlinearity of the water wave equation is essentially of cubic and higher…

A discrete-to-continuum analysis for free-boundary problems related to crystalline films deposited on substrates is performed by $\Gamma$-convergence. The discrete model here introduced is characterized by an energy with two contributions,…

This paper studies a type of degenerate parabolic problem with nonlocal term \begin{equation*} \begin{cases} u_t=u^p(u_{xx}+u-\bar{u}) & 0<t<T_{{\max}},\ 0<x<a, u_x(0,t)=u_x(a,t)=0 & 0<t<T_{{\max}}, u(x,0)=u_0(x) & 0<x<a, \end{cases}…

In this paper, we consider a two-phase flow model consisting of the compressible Navier-Stokes systems with degenerate viscosity coupled with the compressible Navier-Stokes systems with constant viscosities via a drag force, which can be…

The flow of thin liquid films on inclined or vertical surfaces is one of immense importance, with applications spanning many types of process industries, due to the increased mass and heat transfer brought about by the presence of waves on…

The sticky fluids found in pitcher plant leaf vessels can leave fractal-like filaments behind when dewetting from a substrate. To understand the origin of these filaments, we investigate the dynamics of a retreating thin-film of aqueous…

A nonlinear parabolic equation of the fourth order is analyzed. The equation is characterized by a mobility coefficient that degenerates at 0. Existence of at least one weak solution is proved by using a regularization procedure and…

This paper is dedicated to the global existence and optimal decay estimates of strong solutions to the compressible viscoelastic flows in the whole space $\mathbb{R}^n$ with any $n\geq2$. We aim at extending those works by Qian \& Zhang and…

This study focuses on linear partial differential equation (PDE) systems that arise in topology optimization where the thickness of a structure is constrained. The thickness derived from the PDE is a fictitious one, and the key challenge of…

We consider a second order gradient flow of the p-elastic energy for a planar theta-network of three curves with fixed lengths. We construct a weak solution of the flow by means of an implicit variational scheme. We show long-time existence…

We study the equation of one-dimensional quasistatic nonlinear viscoelasticity with Dirichlet boundary conditions, in the particular case that the underlying dissipation geometry (provided by the viscosity) is comparable to the Bhattacharya…
