In this paper we address the problem of continuous dependence on initial and boundary data for a one-dimensional debonding model describing a thin film peeled away from a substrate. The system underlying the process couples the weakly…
In this paper we analyse a one-dimensional debonding model for a thin film peeled from a substrate when viscosity is taken into account. It is described by the weakly damped wave equation whose domain, the debonded region, grows according…
We revisit some issues about existence and regularity for the wave equation in noncylindrical domains. Using a method of diffeomorphisms, we show how, through increasing regularity assumptions, the existence of weak solutions, their…
The global existence of bounded weak solutions to a diffusion system modeling biofilm growth is proven. The equations consist of a reaction-diffusion equation for the substrate concentration and a fourth-order Cahn-Hilliard-type equation…
In this paper we contribute to studying the issue of quasistatic limit in the context of Griffith's theory by investigating a one-dimensional debonding model. It describes the evolution of a thin film partially glued to a rigid substrate…
This paper addresses a two-dimensional sharp interface variational model for solid-state dewetting of thin films with surface energies, introduced by Wang, Jiang, Bao, and Srolovitz in \cite{jiang2016solid}. Using the $H^{-1}$-gradient flow…
We propose a system of two coupled parabolic equations that have degenerate diffusion constants depending on the energy-like variable. The dissipation of the velocity-like variable is fed as a source term into the energy equation leading to…
Thin astrophysical discs are very often modelled using the equations of two-dimensional hydrodynamics. We derive an extension of this model that describes more accurately the behaviour of a thin disc in the absence of self-gravity, magnetic…
We consider a model case for a strictly convex domain of dimension $d\geq 2$ with smooth boundary and we describe dispersion for the wave equation with Dirichlet boundary conditions. More specifically, we obtain the optimal fixed time decay…
In this work, we show the short-time existence of solutions of the evolution equations that represent the solid state dewetting of thin films through evaporation-condensation as a two dimensional sharp interface variational model. The…
This work studies the parameter-dependent diffusion equation in a two-dimensional domain consisting of locally mirror symmetric layers. It is assumed that the diffusion coefficient is a constant in each layer. The goal is to find…
We consider the propagation of extremely short pulses through a dielectric thin film containing resonant atoms (two level atoms) with permanent dipole. Assuming that the film width is less than the field wave length, we can solve the wave…
In this paper, a second-order generalized Riemann problem (GRP) solver is developed for a two-layer thin film model. Extending the first-order Godunov approach, the solver is used to construct a temporal-spatial coupled second-order…
We study pattern formation in a compressed elastic film which delaminates from a substrate. Our key tool is the determination of rigorous upper and lower bounds on the minimum value of a suitable energy functional. The energy consists of…
We consider the defocusing, energy subcritical wave equation $\partial_t^2 u - \Delta u = -|u|^{p-1} u$ in 4 to 6 dimensional spaces with radial initial data. We define $w=r^{(d-1)/2} u$, reduce the equation above to one-dimensional…
Epitaxial growth methods are a key technology used in producing large-area thin films on substrates but as a result of various factors controlling growth processes the rational optimization of growth conditions is rather difficult.…
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,…
We consider a second order linear evolution equation with a dissipative term multiplied by a time-dependent coefficient. Our aim is to design the coefficient in such a way that all solutions decay in time as fast as possible. We discover…
We investigate stationary solutions of a thin-film model for liquid two-layer flows in an energetic formulation that is motivated by its gradient flow structure. The goal is to achieve a rigorous understanding of the contact-angle…
We establish sharp criteria for the instantaneous propagation of free boundaries in solutions to the thin-film equation. The criteria are formulated in terms of the initial distribution of mass (as opposed to previous almost-optimal…
