Stability of stationary solutions of a one-dimensional parabolic equation with homogeneous Neumann boundary conditions
1991
for some x in [0, rr]. The guiding idea of this paper is to observe the changes in the stability behavior of the solutions if we perturb the autonomous problem intro- ducing a forcing term g. In [8] it was shown that iff and g are related by a boundedness condi- tion (see condition (* ) in Theorem 3.1) then there exists a stable solution of (1.1) “close” to each stable solution of (1.2). We want to call these stable solutions of (1.1)
Implicit-explicit and explicit projection schemes for the unsteady incompressible Navier–Stokes equations using a high-order dG method
2017
Abstract A modified version of the projection scheme [19] is proposed, which does not show a lower limit for the time step in contrast to the limits of stability observed numerically for some projection type schemes. An advantage of the proposed scheme is that the right-hand side of the Poisson equation for the pressure is independent of the time step. An explicit version of the current scheme is also provided besides the implicit-explicit one. For the implicit-explicit version, we retain divergence of the viscous terms on the right-hand side of the Poisson equation in order to achieve a higher accuracy for low Reynolds number flows. In this way, we also ensure that the Poisson equation wit…
Nonlinear elliptic equations involving the p-Laplacian with mixed Dirichlet-Neumann boundary conditions
2019
In this paper, a nonlinear differential problem involving the \(p\)-Laplacian operator with mixed boundary conditions is investigated. In particular, the existence of three non-zero solutions is established by requiring suitable behavior on the nonlinearity. Concrete examples illustrate the abstract results.
A sub-supersolution approach for Neumann boundary value problems with gradient dependence
2020
Abstract Existence and location of solutions to a Neumann problem driven by an nonhomogeneous differential operator and with gradient dependence are established developing a non-variational approach based on an adequate method of sub-supersolution. The abstract theorem is applied to prove the existence of finitely many positive solutions or even infinitely many positive solutions for a class of Neumann problems.
Quasihyperbolic boundary condition: Compactness of the inner boundary
2011
We prove that if a metric space satisfies a suitable growth condition in the quasihyperbolic metric and the Gehring–Hayman theorem in the original metric, then the inner boundary of the space is homeomorphic to the Gromov boundary. Thus, the inner boundary is compact. peerReviewed
A multi-sphere particle numerical model for non-invasive investigations of neuronal human brain activity
2013
In this paper, a multi-sphere particle method is built- up in order to estimate the solution of the Poisson's equation with Neumann boundary conditions describing the neuronal human brain activity. The partial difierential equations governing the relationships between neural current sources and the data produced by neuroimaging technique, are able to compute the scalp potential and magnetic fleld distributions generated by the neural activity. A numerical approach is proposed with current dipoles as current sources and going on in the computation by avoiding the mesh construction. The current dipoles are into an homogeneous spherical domain modeling the head and the computational approach i…
Boundary discretization based on the residual energy using the SGBEM
2007
Abstract The paper has as objective the estimation of the error in the structural analysis performed by using the displacement approach of the Symmetric Galerkin Boundary Element Method (SGBEM) and suggests a strategy able to reduce this error through an appropriate change of the boundary discretization. The body, characterized by a domain Ω and a boundary Γ−, is embedded inside a complementary unlimited domain Ω∞⧹Ω bounded by a boundary Γ+. In such new condition it is possible to perform a separate valuation of the strain energies in the two subdomains through the computation of the work, defined generalized, obtained as the product among nodal and weighted quantities on the actual boundar…
Strong solutions to a parabolic equation with linear growth with respect to the gradient variable
2018
Abstract In this paper we prove existence and uniqueness of strong solutions to the homogeneous Neumann problem associated to a parabolic equation with linear growth with respect to the gradient variable. This equation is a generalization of the time-dependent minimal surface equation. Existence and regularity in time of the solution is proved by means of a suitable pseudoparabolic relaxed approximation of the equation and a passage to the limit.
Local and nonlocal weighted pLaplacian evolution equations with Neumann boundary conditions
2011
In this paper we study existence and uniqueness of solutions to the local diffusion equation with Neumann boundary conditions and a bounded nonhomogeneous diffusion coefficient g ≥ 0, {ut = div (g|∇u|p-2∇u) in ]0; T[×Ωg|∇u|p-2u·n = 0 on ]0; T[×∂Ω; for 1 ≤ p < ∞. We show that a nonlocal counterpart of this diffusion problem is ut(t; x)= ∫ω J(x-y)g(x+y/2)|u(t; y)-u(t; x)| p-2 (u(t; y)-u(t; x)) dy in ]0; T[× Ω,where the diffusion coefficient has been reinterpreted by means of the values of g at the point x+y/2 in the integral operator. The fact that g ≥ 0 is allowed to vanish in a set of positive measure involves subtle difficulties, specially in the case p = 1.
A nonlocal p-Laplacian evolution equation with Neumann boundary conditions
2008
In this paper we study the nonlocal p-Laplacian type diffusion equation,ut (t, x) = under(∫, Ω) J (x - y) | u (t, y) - u (t, x) |p - 2 (u (t, y) - u (t, x)) d y . If p > 1, this is the nonlocal analogous problem to the well-known local p-Laplacian evolution equation ut = div (| ∇ u |p - 2 ∇ u) with homogeneous Neumann boundary conditions. We prove existence and uniqueness of a strong solution, and if the kernel J is rescaled in an appropriate way, we show that the solutions to the corresponding nonlocal problems converge strongly in L∞ (0, T ; Lp (Ω)) to the solution of the p-Laplacian with homogeneous Neumann boundary conditions. The extreme case p = 1, that is, the nonlocal analogous t…
