Within the framework of variational modelling we derive a one-phase moving boundary problem describing the motion of a semipermeable membrane enclosing a viscous liquid, driven by osmotic pressure and surface tension of the membrane. For this problem we prove the existence of classical solutions for a short-time.

We present a stability result for a class of non-trivial self-similarly vanishing solutions to a 3D Hele-Shaw moving boundary problem with surface tension and single-point suction. These solutions are domains that bifurcate from the trivial spherical solution. The moving domains have a geometric centre located at the suction point and they are axially symmetric. We show stability with respect to perturbations that preserve these properties.

Abstract This paper is concerned with a diffusion-controlled moving boundary problem in drug dissolution, in which the moving front passes from one medium to another for which the diffusivity is many orders of magnitude smaller. The classical Neumann similarity solution holds while the front is passing through the first layer, but this breaks down in the second layer. Asymptotic methods are used to understand what is happening in the second layer. Although this necessitates numerical computation, one interesting outcome is that only one calculation is required, no matter what the diffusivity is for the second layer.

We consider the regularity of solutions to a multidimensional moving boundary problem modelling the growth of non-necrotic solid tumours. The model equations include two elliptic equations describing the concentration of a nutrient and the distribution of the internal pressure within the tumour, respectively, and a first-order partial differential equation governing the evolution of the moving boundary on which surface tension effects counteract the internal pressure. On account of the moving boundary and surface tension effects, this problem is a nonlinear problem involving non-local terms. By employing the functional analytic method and the theory of maximal regularity, we prove that the moving boundary is real analytic in temporal and spatial variables, even if the given initial data admit less regularity.
