This paper gives necessary and sufficient conditions for the convergence of the solution of a weakly damped second order linear differential equation that is subjected to outside forcing, for which solutions of the unforced equation are…
Inspired by one--dimensional light--particle systems, the dynamics of a non-Hamiltonian system with long--range forces is investigated. While the molecular dynamics does not reach an equilibrium state, it may be approximated in the…
The paper is devoted to the motion of a body in a fluid under the influence of gravity and drag. Depending on the regime considered, the drag force can exhibit a linear, quadratic or even more general dependence on the velocity of the body…
We study the discrete nonlinear Schr\"oinger equation with weak disorder, focusing on the regime when the nonlinearity is, on the one hand, weak enough for the normal modes of the linear problem to remain well resolved, but on the other,…
Single particle dynamics in electron microscopes, ion or electron lithographic instruments, particle accelerators, and particle spectrographs is described by weakly nonlinear ordinary differential equations. Therefore, the linear part of…
It is common practice to approximate a weakly nonlinear wave equation through a kinetic transport equation, thus raising the issue of controlling the validity of the kinetic limit for a suitable choice of the random initial data. While for…
We derive novel algorithms for optimization problems constrained by partial differential equations describing multiscale particle dynamics, including non-local integral terms representing interactions between particles. In particular, we…
We consider nonlinear effects in scattering of light by a periodic structure supporting optical bound states in the continuum. In the spectral vicinity of the bound states the scattered electromagnetic field is resonantly enhanced…
We study the question of weak solvability for a nonlinear coupled parabolic system that models the evolution of a complex pedestrian flow. The main feature is that the flow is composed of a mix of densities of active and passive pedestrians…
Structured models, such as PDEs structured by age or phenotype, provide a setting to study pattern formation in heterogeneous populations. Classical tools to quantify the emergence of patterns, such as linear and weakly nonlinear analyses,…
In this article, we study the large time behavior of solutions of first-order Hamilton-Jacobi Equations, set in a bounded domain with nonlinear Neumann boundary conditions, including the case of dynamical boundary conditions. We establish…
We consider a kinetic equation describing evolution of a particle distribution function in a system with nonlinear wave-particle interactions (trappings into a resonance and nonlinear scatterings). We study properties of its solutions and…
This technical note is a complement to an earlier paper [Benzoni-Gavage \& Rosini, Comput. Math. Appl. 2009], which aims at a deeper understanding of a basic model for propagating phase boundaries that was proved to admit surface waves…
Many biological processes are supported by special molecules, called motor proteins or molecular motors, that transport cellular cargoes along linear protein filaments and can reversibly associate to their tracks. Stimulated by these…
We present an adjoint-based method for the calculation of eigenvalue perturbations in nonlinear, degenerate and non self-adjoint eigenproblems. This method is applied to a thermo-acoustic annular combustor network, the stability of which is…
We investigate the motion of a suspended non-Brownian sphere past a fixed cylindrical or spherical obstacle in the limit of zero Reynolds number for arbitrary particle-obstacle aspect ratios. We consider both a suspended sphere moving in a…
Nonconvex and nonsmooth optimization problems are frequently encountered in much of statistics, business, science and engineering, but they are not yet widely recognized as a technology in the sense of scalability. A reason for this…
The amplitude equation for an unstable electrostatic wave is analyzed using an expansion in the mode amplitude $A(t)$. In the limit of weak instability, i.e. $\gamma\to 0^+$ where $\gamma$ is the linear growth rate, the nonlinear…
We establish nonlinear stability and asymptotic behavior of traveling periodic waves of viscous conservation laws under localized perturbations or nonlocalized perturbations asymptotic to constant shifts in phase, showing that long-time…
In this paper we propose a new method to stabilise non-symmetric indefinite problems. The idea is to solve a forward and an adjoint problem simultaneously using a suitable stabilised finite element method. Both stabilisation of the element…
