A Free Boundary Problem

A one-dimensional free boundary problem arising in the modelling of internal oxidation of binary alloys is studied in this paper. The free boundary of this problem is determined by the equation u = 0, where u is the solution of a parabolic partial differential equation with discontinuous coefficients across the free boundary. Local existence, uniqueness and the regularity of the free boundary are established. Global existence is also studied.

A Free Boundary Problem

We consider a solution of a mono-component oil and wax. The latter is dissolved in the oil if the temperature is above the so-called cloud point (which depends on the concentration) and it segregates in the form of solid crystals if temperature is below the cloud point. As the solid fraction of wax increases, the diffusivity of liquid wax in the oil decreases (gelification), eventually vanishing. We study a one-dimensional model where temperature is initially above the cloud point and then it is lowered to induce diffusion and gelification. We formulate the relevant mathematical problem (a free boundary problem), studying its well-posedness and showing some qualitative results.

Large Diffusion

SynopsisWe prove the well-posedness for a one-dimensional free boundary problem arising from some reaction diffusion system. The interfacial point hits a boundary point in finite time or remains inside for all time. In the large diffusion limit, the system is reduced to ordinary differential equations of finite dimension.

Thin Tape

A free boundary problem that arises from the physical phenomenon of "peeling a thin tape from a domain" is treated. In this phenomenon, the movement of the tape is governed by a hyperbolic equation and is affected by the peeling front. We are interested in the behavior of the peeling front, especially, the phenomenon of self-excitation vibration. In the present paper, a mathematical model of this phenomenon is proposed. The cause of this vibration is discussed in terms of adhesion.
