    Lagrange multiplier and singular limit of double obstacle problems for Allen-Cahn equation with constraint
    (Berlin : Weierstraß-Institut für Angewandte Analysis und Stochastik, 2015) Farshbaf Shaker, Mohammad Hassan; Takeshi, Takeshi; Yamazaki, Noriaki; Kenmochi, Nobuyuki
    We consider an Allen--Cahn equation with a constraint of double obstacle-type. This constraint is a subdifferential of an indicator function on the closed interval, which is a multivalued function. In this paper we study the properties of the Lagrange multiplier to our equation. Also, we consider the singular limit of our system and clarify the limit of the solution and the Lagrange multiplier to our double obstacle problem. Moreover, we give some numerical experiments of our problem by using the Lagrange multiplier.

    Singular limit of Allen-Cahn equation with constraints and its Lagrange multiplier
    (Berlin : Weierstraß-Institut für Angewandte Analysis und Stochastik, 2014) Farshbaf Shaker, Mohammad Hassan; Fukao, Takeshi; Yamazaki, Noriaki
    We consider the Allen-Cahn equation with constraint. Our constraint is the subdifferential of the indicator function on the closed interval, which is the multivalued function. In this paper we give the characterization of the Lagrange multiplier to our equation. Moreover, we consider the singular limit of our system and clarify the limit of the solution and the Lagrange multiplier to our problem.

    Optimal and robust a posteriori error estimates in L∞(L2) for the approximation of Allen-Cahn equations past singularities
    (Berlin : Weierstraß-Institut für Angewandte Analysis und Stochastik, 2009) Bartels, Sören; Müller, Rüdiger
    Optimal a posteriori error estimates in L∞(L2) are derived for the finite element approximation of Allen-Cahn equations. The estimates depend on the inverse of a small parameter only in a low order polynomial and are valid past topological changes of the evolving interface. The error analysis employs an elliptic reconstruction of the approximate solution and applies to a large class of conforming, nonconforming, mixed, and discontinuous Galerkin methods. Numerical experiments illustrate the theoretical results.

    Modelling compressible electrolytes with phase transition
    (Berlin : Weierstraß-Institut für Angewandte Analysis und Stochastik, 2014) Dreyer, Wolfgang; Giesselmann, Jan; Kraus, Christiane
    A novel thermodynamically consistent diffuse interface model is derived for compressible electrolytes with phase transitions. The fluid mixtures may consist of N constituents with the phases liquid and vapor, where both phases may coexist. In addition, all constituents may consist of polarizable and magnetizable matter. Our introduced thermodynamically consistent diffuse interface model may be regarded as a generalized model of Allen-Cahn/Navier-Stokes/Poisson type for multi-component flows with phase transitions and electrochemical reactions. For the introduced diffuse interface model, we investigate physically admissible sharp interface limits by matched asymptotic techniques. We consider two scaling regimes, i.e. a non-coupled and a coupled regime, where the coupling takes place between the smallness parameter in the Poisson equation and the width of the interface. We recover in the sharp interface limit a generalized Allen-Cahn/Euler/Poisson system for mixtures with electrochemical reactions in the bulk phases equipped with admissible interfacial conditions. The interfacial conditions satisfy, for instance, a generalized Gibbs-Thomson law and a dynamic Young-Laplace law.

    A quasi-incompressible diffuse interface model with phase transition
    (Berlin : Weierstraß-Institut für Angewandte Analysis und Stochastik, 2012) Aki, Gonca; Dreyer, Wolfgang; Giesselmann, Jan; Kraus, Christine
    This work introduces a new thermodynamically consistent diffuse model for two-component flows of incompressible fluids. For the introduced diffuse interface model, we investigate physically admissible sharp interface limits by matched asymptotic techniques. To this end, we consider two scaling regimes where in one case we recover the Euler equations and in the other case the Navier-Stokes equations in the bulk phases equipped with admissible interfacial conditions. For the Navier-Stokes regime, we further assume the densities of the fluids are close to each other in the sense of a small parameter which is related to the interfacial thickness of the diffuse model.

    A compressible mixture model with phase transition
    (Berlin : Weierstraß-Institut für Angewandte Analysis und Stochastik, 2013) Dreyer, Wolfgang; Giesselmann, Jan; Kraus, Christiane
    We introduce a new thermodynamically consistent diffuse interface model of AllenCahn/NavierStokes type for multi-component flows with phase transitions and chemical reactions. For the introduced diffuse interface model, we investigate physically admissible sharp interface limits by matched asymptotic techniques. We consider two scaling regimes, i.e. a non-dissipative and a dissipative regime, where we recover in the sharp interface limit a generalized Allen-Cahn/Euler system for mixtures with chemical reactions in the bulk phases equipped with admissible interfacial conditions. The interfacial conditions satify, for instance, a YoungLaplace and a Stefan type law.
