Abstract In this paper we study the model of the chemical reaction of fully competitive inhibition and determine the appropriate parameter ∊ (related to the chemical constants of the model), for the application of singular perturbation techniques. We determine the inner and the outer solutions up to the first perturbation order and the uniform expansions. Some numerical results are discussed.

The problem of obtaining asymptotic expressions describing the shape of small sessile and pendant drops is revisited. Both cases display boundary-layer behaviour and the method of matched asymptotic expansions is used to obtain solutions. These give good agreement when compared with numerical results. The sessile solutions are relatively straightforward, while the pendant drop displays a behaviour which is both rich and interesting.

Abstract In this paper we study the chemical reaction of inhibition, determine the appropriate parameter ε for the application of Tihonov's Theorem, compute explicitly the equations of the center manifold of the system and find sufficient conditions to guarantee that in the phase space the curves which relate the behavior of the complexes to the substrates by means of the tQSSA are asymptotically equivalent to the center manifold of the system. Some numerical results are discussed.

An asymptotic representation of low-frequency, linear, isentropic g-modes of a star is developed without the usual neglect of the Eulerian perturbation of the gravitational potential. Our asymptotic representation is based on the use of asymptotic expansions adequate for solutions of singular perturbation problems (see, e.g., Kevorkian & Cole 1981).Linear, isentropic oscillation modes with frequency different from zero are governed by a fourth-order system of linear, homogeneous differential equations in the radial parts of the radial displacement ξ(r) and the divergence α(r). These equations take the formThe symbols have their usual meaning. N2 is the square of the frequency of Brunt-Väisälä. The functions K1 (r), K2 (r), K3 (r), K4 (r), depend on the equilibrium model, e.g.,We introduce the small expansion parameterand assume, for the sake of simplification, N2 to be positive everywhere in the star so that the star is everywhere convectively stable.

Asymptotic solutions of a class of nonlinear boundary-value problems are studied. The problem is a model arising in nuclear energy distribution. For large values of the parameter, the differential equations are of the singular-perturbation type and approximations are constructed by the method of matched asymptotic expansions.
