Fluid‐structure coupling of linear elastic model with compressible flow models

Cavitation erosion is caused in solids exposed to strong pressure waves developing in an adjacent fluid field. The knowledge of the transient distribution of stresses in the solid is important to understand the cause of damaging by comparisons with breaking points of the material. The modeling of this problem requires the coupling of the models for the fluid and the solid. For this purpose, we use a strategy based on the solution of coupled Riemann problems that has been originally developed for the coupling of 2 fluids. This concept is exemplified for the coupling of a linear elastic structure with an ideal gas. The coupling procedure relies on the solution of a nonlinear equation. Existence and uniqueness of the solution is proven. The coupling conditions are validated by means of quasi‐1D problems for which an explicit solution can be determined. For a more realistic scenario, a 2D application is considered where in a compressible single fluid, a hot gas bubble at low pressure collapses in a cold gas at high pressure near an adjacent structure.

Existence of stationary,collisionless plasmas in bounded domains

We consider a collisionless plasma, which consists of electrons and positively charged ions and is confined to a bounded domain in ?³. The distribution functions of the particles are assumed to satisfy specular reflections on the boundary of the domain and the boundary is assumed to be perfectly conducting. We establish the existence of stationary plasmas in the non-relativistic, electrostatic case described by the Vlasov–Poisson system as well as in the relativistic, electrodynamic case described by the relativistic Vlasov–Maxwell system.     

Subgroup separable free products with cyclic amalgamation

Using topological methods we give a proof that the free product of two strict subgroup separable groups with infinite cyclic amalgamation is subgroup separable.
