When a fluid carrying a passive solute flows quickly through porous media, three key macroscale transport mechanisms occur. These mechanisms are diffusion, advection and dispersion, all of which depend on the microstructure of the porous…
We aim at understanding transport in porous materials including regions with both high and low diffusivities. For such scenarios, the transport becomes structured (here: {\em micro-macro}). The geometry we have in mind includes regions of…
A cross-diffusion system describing ion transport through biological membranes or nanopores in a bounded domain with mixed Dirichlet-Neumann boundary conditions is analyzed. The ion concentrations solve strongly coupled diffusion equations…
We study the periodic homogenization of a reaction-diffusion problem with large nonlinear drift and Robin boundary condition posed in an unbounded perforated domain. The nonlinear problem is associated with the hydrodynamic limit of a…
We consider the homogenization of a model of reactive flows through periodic porous media involving a single solute which can be absorbed and desorbed on the pore boundaries. This is a system of two convection-diffusion equations, one in…
In this paper we extend the homogenization results obtained in (G. Allaire, A. Mikeli\'c, A. Piatnitski, J. Math. Phys. 51 (2010), 123103) for a system of partial differential equations describing the transport of a N-component electrolyte…
An existence result is proved for a nonlinear diffusion problem of phase-field type, consisting of a parabolic system of two partial differential equations, complemented by Neumann homogeneous boundary conditions and initial conditions.…
A nonlinear Poisson--Boltzmann equation with transmission boundary conditions at the interface between two materials is investigated. The model describes the electrostatic potential generated by a vector of ion concentrations in a periodic…
Two-scale homogenization limits of parabolic cross-diffusion systems in a heterogeneous medium with no-flux boundary conditions are proved. The heterogeneity of the medium is reflected in the diffusion coefficients or by the perforated…
We consider a reaction-diffusion-advection problem in a perforated medium, with nonlinear reactions in the bulk and at the microscopic boundary, and low diffusion scaling. The microstructure changes in time; the microstructural evolution is…
We study a nonlinear, degenerate cross-diffusion model which involves two densities with two different drift velocities. A general framework is introduced based on its gradient flow structure in Wasserstein space to derive a notion of…
A major challenge in flow through porous media is to better understand the link between microstructure and macroscale flow and transport. For idealised microstructures, the mathematical framework of homogenisation theory can be used for…
The transport and dispersion of multiple species of charged ions are central to many biological and physical processes, including electrokinetic ion separation. However, most theoretical studies of dispersion in channels have focused on…
The goal of this work is to establish the global existence of nonnegative classical solutions in all dimensions for a system of highly nonlinear reaction-diffusion equations. We address the case for different diffusion coefficients and the…
Systems describing the long-range interaction between individuals have attracted a lot of attention in the last years, in particular in relation with living systems. These systems are quadratic, written under the form of transport equations…
Homogenization method is used to analyse the equivalent behavior of transient flow of a passive solute through highly heterogeneous porous media. The flow is governed by a coupled system which includes an elliptic equation and a linear…
We rigorously derive a homogenized model for the Poisson--Nernst--Planck (PNP) equations for the case of multiple species defined on a periodic porous medium in spatial dimensions two and three. This extends the previous homogenization…
The problem of eliminating fast-relaxing variables to obtain an effective drift-diffusion process in position is solved in a uniform and straightforward way for models with velocity a function jointly of position and fast variables. A more…
In this article we study the asymptotic behaviour of the solution of the three species chemical reaction-diffusion model with non-homogeneous Neumann boundary condition in a perforated domain. We investigate how the mass inflow at the…
The problem of the one dimensional electro-diffusion of ions in a strong binary electrolyte is considered. In such a system the solute dissociates completely into two species of ions with unlike charges. The mathematical description…
