    Analysis of a thermodynamically consistent Navier--Stokes--Cahn--Hilliard model
    (Berlin : Weierstraß-Institut für Angewandte Analysis und Stochastik, 2020) Lasarzik, Robert
    In this paper, existence of generalized solutions to a thermodynamically consistent Navier--Stokes--Cahn--Hilliard model introduced in [19] is proven in any space dimension. The generalized solvability concepts are measure-valued and dissipative solutions. The measure-valued formulation incorporates an entropy inequality and an energy inequality instead of an energy balance in a nowadays standard way, the Gradient flow of the internal variable is fulfilled in a weak and the momentum balance in a measure-valued sense. In the dissipative formulation, the distributional relations of the momentum balance and the energy as well as entropy inequality are replaced by a relative energy inequality. Additionally, we prove the weak-strong uniqueness of the proposed solution concepts and that all generalized solutions with additional regularity are indeed strong solutions.

    Further regularity and uniqueness results for a non-isothermal Cahn--Hilliard equation
    (Berlin : Weierstraß-Institut für Angewandte Analysis und Stochastik, 2020) Ipocoana, Erica; Zafferi, Andrea
    The aim of this paper is to establish new regularity results for a non-isothermal Cahn--Hilliard system in the two-dimensional setting. The main achievement is a crucial L∞ estimate for the temperature, obtained by a suitable Moser iteration scheme. Our results in particular allow us to get a new simplified version of the uniqueness proof for the considered model.
