ASYMPTOTIC ANALYSIS OF THE LINEARIZED NAVIER–STOKES EQUATION ON AN EXTERIOR CIRCULAR DOMAIN: EXPLICIT SOLUTION AND THE ZERO VISCOSITY LIMIT
2001
In this paper we study and derive explicit formulas for the linearized Navier-Stokes equations on an exterior circular domain in space dimension two. Through an explicit construction, the solution is decomposed into an inviscid solution, a boundary layer solution and a corrector. Bounds on these solutions are given, in the appropriate Sobolev spaces, in terms of the norms of the initial and boundary data. The correction term is shown to be of the same order of magnitude as the square root of the viscosity. Copyright © 2001 by Marcel Dekker, Inc.
Asymptotic stability of solutions to Volterra-renewal integral equations with space maps
2012
Abstract In this paper we consider linear Volterra-renewal integral equations (VIEs) whose solutions depend on a space variable, via a map transformation. We investigate the asymptotic properties of the solutions, and study the asymptotic stability of a numerical method based on direct quadrature in time and interpolation in space. We show its properties through test examples.
On vibrating thin membranes with mass concentrated near the boundary: an asymptotic analysis
2018
We consider the spectral problem \begin{equation*} \left\{\begin{array}{ll} -\Delta u_{\varepsilon}=\lambda(\varepsilon)\rho_{\varepsilon}u_{\varepsilon} & {\rm in}\ \Omega\\ \frac{\partial u_{\varepsilon}}{\partial\nu}=0 & {\rm on}\ \partial\Omega \end{array}\right. \end{equation*} in a smooth bounded domain $\Omega$ of $\mathbb R^2$. The factor $\rho_{\varepsilon}$ which appears in the first equation plays the role of a mass density and it is equal to a constant of order $\varepsilon^{-1}$ in an $\varepsilon$-neighborhood of the boundary and to a constant of order $\varepsilon$ in the rest of $\Omega$. We study the asymptotic behavior of the eigenvalues $\lambda(\varepsilon)$ and the eige…
A Dirichlet problem for the Laplace operator in a domain with a small hole close to the boundary
2016
We study the Dirichlet problem in a domain with a small hole close to the boundary. To do so, for each pair $\boldsymbol\varepsilon = (\varepsilon_1, \varepsilon_2 )$ of positive parameters, we consider a perforated domain $\Omega_{\boldsymbol\varepsilon}$ obtained by making a small hole of size $\varepsilon_1 \varepsilon_2 $ in an open regular subset $\Omega$ of $\mathbb{R}^n$ at distance $\varepsilon_1$ from the boundary $\partial\Omega$. As $\varepsilon_1 \to 0$, the perforation shrinks to a point and, at the same time, approaches the boundary. When $\boldsymbol\varepsilon \to (0,0)$, the size of the hole shrinks at a faster rate than its approach to the boundary. We denote by $u_{\bolds…
Discontinuous Gradient Constraints and the Infinity Laplacian
2012
Motivated by tug-of-war games and asymptotic analysis of certain variational problems, we consider a gradient constraint problem involving the infinity Laplace operator. We prove that this problem always has a solution that is unique if a certain regularity condition on the constraint is satisfied. If this regularity condition fails, then solutions obtained from game theory and $L^p$-approximation need not coincide.
Parametric and nonparametric A-Laplace problems: Existence of solutions and asymptotic analysis
2021
We give sufficient conditions for the existence of weak solutions to quasilinear elliptic Dirichlet problem driven by the A-Laplace operator in a bounded domain Ω. The techniques, based on a variant of the symmetric mountain pass theorem, exploit variational methods. We also provide information about the asymptotic behavior of the solutions as a suitable parameter goes to 0 + . In this case, we point out the existence of a blow-up phenomenon. The analysis developed in this paper extends and complements various qualitative and asymptotic properties for some cases described by homogeneous differential operators.
On the Statistical Properties of Capacity Outage Intervals in OSTBC-MIMO Rayleigh Fading Channels
2016
This paper deals mainly with the study of the asymptotic probability density functions (PDFs) of the outage durations of the instantaneous capacity of orthogonal space-time block code (OSTBC) multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) systems over Rayleigh channels. Drawing upon known statistical properties for the asymptotic behavior of chi-squared processes at low levels, we provide approximate solutions for the PDF, the cumulative distribution function (CDF), and the $k$ th-order moments of the outage intervals of the underlying capacity processes. Then, as an application of the derived PDF, the performance assessment of capacity simulators is reported. Following this, we introduce the newly …
Differential equations over polynomially bounded o-minimal structures
2002
We investigate the asymptotic behavior at +∞ of non-oscillatory solutions to differential equations y' = G(t, y), t > a, where G: R 1+l → R l is definable in a polynomially bounded o-minimal structure. In particular, we show that the Pfaffian closure of a polynomially bounded o-minimal structure on the real field is levelled.
A direct impedance tomography algorithm for locating small inhomogeneities
2003
Impedance tomography seeks to recover the electrical conductivity distribution inside a body from measurements of current flows and voltages on its surface. In its most general form impedance tomography is quite ill-posed, but when additional a-priori information is admitted the situation changes dramatically. In this paper we consider the case where the goal is to find a number of small objects (inhomogeneities) inside an otherwise known conductor. Taking advantage of the smallness of the inhomogeneities, we can use asymptotic analysis to design a direct (i.e., non-iterative) reconstruction algorithm for the determination of their locations. The viability of this direct approach is documen…
A RADIATION CONDITION FOR UNIQUENESS IN A WAVE PROPAGATION PROBLEM FOR 2-D OPEN WAVEGUIDES
2009
We study the uniqueness of solutions of Helmholtz equation for a problem that concerns wave propagation in waveguides. The classical radiation condition does not apply to our problem because the inhomogeneity of the index of refraction extends to infinity in one direction. Also, because of the presence of a waveguide, some waves propagate in one direction with different propagation constants and without decaying in amplitude. Our main result provides an explicit condition for uniqueness which takes into account the physically significant components, corresponding to guided and non-guided waves; this condition reduces to the classical Sommerfeld-Rellich condition in the relevant cases.
