A New Class of Weak Solutions of the Navier–Stokes Equations with Nonhomogeneous Data

We investigate a class of weak solutions, the so-called very weak solutions, to stationary and nonstationary Navier–Stokes equations in a bounded domain . This notion was introduced by Amann [3], [4] for the nonstationary case with nonhomogeneous boundary data leading to a very large solution class of low regularity. Here we are mainly interested in the investigation of the “largest possible” class of solutions u for the more general problem with arbitrary divergence k = div u, boundary data g = u|_∂Ω and an external force f, as weak as possible, but maintaining uniqueness. In principle, we will follow Amann’s approach.     

Numerical approximation of a viscoelastic frictional contact problemApproximation numérique d'un problème viscoélastique de contact avec frottement

We consider a fully discrete scheme for a quasistatic frictional contact problem between a viscoelastic body and an obstacle. The contact is bilateral, the friction is modeled with Tresca's law and the behavior of the material is described with a viscoelastic constitutive law with long memory. We state an existence and uniqueness result for the discrete solution, followed by error estimate results. Then, we present numerical simulations in the study of a two-dimensional test example.

Investigation of Alternative Length Scale Substitutions in Detached-Eddy Simulation

The objective of this work is the comparison of three different DES-style hybrid RANS/LES implementations based on the Wilcox k– model. The three variants are designed to investigate alternative methods of substitution of the DES length scale within the background Reynolds Averaged Navier-Stokes (RANS) model. Basis for comparison is provided by both the idealised case of the decay of isotropic turbulence (DIT) as well as the practical case of the massively separated, turbulent flow around an airfoil at high angle of attack. The results of the investigations are discussed in detail, the outcome of which is an emphasis of the importance of DIT as a method for calibration, as well as of the relative freedom with which alternative DES-inspired approaches can be implemented for flows of practical relevance.     

Epitaxy of Binary Compounds and Alloys

The present work aims at constructing a theoretical framework within which to address the issues of morphological instabilities (one-dimensional step bunching and two-dimensional step meandering), alloying, and phase segregation in binary systems in the context of (physical or chemical) vapor deposition. The length scale of interest, although nanoscopic, is sufficiently large that the steps on a vicinal surface can be viewed as smooth curves and, correspondingly, the theory is a continuum one. In a departure from theories inaugurated by Burton, Cabrera, and Frank [The growth of crystals and the equilibrium structure of their surfaces. Phil. Trans. Roy. Soc. A 243 (1951) 299–358] the steps are endowed with a thermodynamic structure whose main ingredients are a step free-energy density and edge species chemical potentials. Moreover, crystal anisotropy, with its altering of the dynamics of steps and the associated morphological instabilities, is accounted for – in a manner consistent with the second law – both in the thermodynamic and kinetic properties of terraces and, more importantly, of steps. Additionally, in contrast with most of the literature on the subject (cf. [J. Krug, Introduction to step dynamics and step instabilities. In: A. Voigt (ed.) Multiscale Modeling in Epitaxial Growth. Birkhäusser, Berlin (2005)]), adsorption–desorption along the steps, bulk atomic diffusion, and chemical reactions (both on the terraces and along the step edges) are incorporated and coupled to the other mechanisms, e.g., terrace adatom diffusion and step attachment–detachment kinetics, whose interplay governs the evolution of steps on vicinal surfaces. Importantly, aided by the concept of configurational forces for which a separate balance law is postulated Configurational Forces as Basic Concepts of Continuum Physics. Springer, Berlin Heidelberg New York (2000)]), the proposed theory allows the steps to evolve away from local equilibrium thus contributing to a general treatment of the dynamics of steps. Finally, a specialization to the epitaxy of binary compounds and alloys is afforded, yielding a generalization of the classical Gibbs–Thomson relation in the former and novel evolution equations for an individual step in the latter.     

Moufang sets of mixed type F4

Moufang sets were introduced by Jacques Tits in order to understand isotropic linear algebraic groups of relative rank one, but the notion is more general. We describe a new class of Moufang sets, arising from so‐called mixed groups of type ${\mathsf{F}}_4$ in characteristic 2, obtained as the fixed point set under a suitable involution.     

Two lower bounds for the Stanley depth of monomial ideals

Let be two monomial ideals of the polynomial ring . In this paper, we provide two lower bounds for the Stanley depth of . On the one hand, we introduce the notion of lcm number of , denoted by , and prove that the inequality holds. On the other hand, we show that , where denotes the order dimension of the lcm lattice of . We show that I and satisfy Stanley's conjecture, if either the lcm number of I or the order dimension of the lcm lattice of I is small enough. Among other results, we also prove that the Stanley–Reisner ideal of a vertex decomposable simplicial complex satisfies Stanley's conjecture.     

Sequences of harmonic maps in the 3‐sphere

We define two transforms of non‐conformal harmonic maps from a surface into the 3‐sphere. With these transforms one can construct, from one such harmonic map, a sequence of harmonic maps. We show that there is a correspondence between harmonic maps into the 3‐sphere, H‐surfaces in Euclidean 3‐space and almost complex surfaces in the nearly Kähler manifold . As a consequence we can construct sequences of H‐surfaces and almost complex surfaces.     

Constraints on the fundamental topological parameters of spatial tessellations

Tessellations of that use convex polyhedral cells to fill the space can be extremely complicated, especially if they are not “facet‐to‐facet”, that is, if the facets of a cell do not necessarily coincide with the facets of that cell's neighbours. In a recent paper 15 , we have developed a theory which covers these complicated cases, at least with respect to their combinatorial topology. The theory required seven parameters, three of which suffice for facet‐to‐facet cases; the remaining four parameters are needed for the awkward adjacency concepts that arise in the general case. This current paper establishes constraints that apply to these seven parameters and so defines a permissible region within their seven‐dimensional space, a region which we discover is not bounded. Our constraints in the relatively simple facet‐to‐facet case are also new.
