We study the Signorini problem near a fixed boundary, where the solution is "clamped down" or "glued." We show that in general the solutions are at least $C^{1/2}$ regular and that this regularity is sharp. We prove that near the actual…
We consider the transmission problem in presence of interfaces with imperfect bonding. The imperfect bonding condition is characterized by the positive resistance along the interface, which causes discontinuity of the potential across the…
We analyze a non-isothermal Darcy-Brinkman thin-film flow with a periodically oscillating boundary and viscous dissipation acting as a heat source. Using asymptotic analysis and the periodic unfolding method, we establish the convergence of…
We discuss the sharp interface limit of a diffuse interface model for a two-phase flow of two partly miscible viscous Newtonian fluids of different densities, when a certain parameter \epsilon>0 related to the interface thickness tends to…
The methods of non-equilibrium thermodynamics of systems with an interface have been applied to the study of thermionic emission processes in abrupt semiconductor junctions, including the effects of surface states . Our analysis covers…
We consider the critical behavior at an interface which separates two semi-infinite subsystems belonging to different universality classes, thus having different set of critical exponents, but having a common transition temperature. We…
The effect of thermal fluctuations near a contact line of a liquid interface partially wetting an impenetrable substrate is studied analytically and numerically. Promoting both the interface profile and the contact line position to random…
We study one-dimensional topological superconductivity in the presence of time-reversal symmetry. This phase is characterized by having a bulk gap, while supporting a Kramers' pair of zero-energy Majorana bound states at each of its ends.…
We investigate the behavior of the solution to an elliptic diffraction problem in the union of a smooth set $\Omega$ and a thin layer $\Sigma$ locally described by $\varepsilon h$, where $h$ is a positive function defined on the boundary…
Two boundary value problems for an elliptic equation in divergence form with bounded discontinuous coefficient are studied in a bidomain. On the interface, generalized dynamic boundary conditions such as of the Wentzell-type and…
A new diffuse interface model for a two-phase flow of two incompressible fluids with different densities is introduced using methods from rational continuum mechanics. The model fulfills local and global dissipation inequalities and is also…
Understanding the contact between solid surfaces is a long standing problem which has a strong impact on the physics of many processes such as adhesion, friction, lubrication and wear. Experimentally, the investigation of solid/solid…
We consider the slow nonlinear diffusion equation subject to a constant absorption rate and construct local self-similar solutions for reversing (and anti-reversing) interfaces, where an initially advancing (receding) interface gives way to…
We establish quantitative asymptotic behavior of positive solutions of a family of nonlinear elliptic equations on the half cylinder near the end. This unifies the study of isolated singularities of some semilinear elliptic equations, such…
We study the field concentration phenomenon between two closely spaced perfect conductors with imperfect bonding interfaces of low conductivity type. The boundary condition on these interfaces is given by a Robin-type boundary condition. We…
We study the nonlinear interfacial thermal transport across atomic junctions by the quantum self-consistent mean field (QSCMF) theory based on nonequilibrium Green's function approach; the QSCMF theory we propose is very precise and matches…
This paper studies the effect of anisotropy on sharp or diffuse interfaces models. When the surface tension is a convex function of the normal to the interface, the anisotropy is said to be weak. This usually ensures the lower…
We consider an incompressible Bingham flow in a thin domain with rough boundary, under the action of given external forces and with no-slip boundary condition on the whole boundary of the domain. In mathematical terms, this problem is…
The article examines a boundary-value problem in a domain consisting of perforated and imperforate regions, with Neumann conditions prescribed at the boundaries of the perforations. Assuming the porous medium has symmetric, periodic…
In this note, we use an epiperimetric inequality approach to study the regularity of the free boundary for the parabolic Signorini problem. We show that if the "vanishing order" of a solution at a free boundary point is close to $3/2$ or an…
