This paper is concerned with global existence and asymptotic behavior of H¹ solutions to the Cauchy problem of one‐dimensional full non‐Newtonian fluids with the weighted small initial data. We then obtain the global existence of Hⁱ(i = 2,4) solutions and their asymptotic behavior for the system. Copyright © 2015 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Boundary value problem for a global‐in‐time parabolic equation

The aim of this paper is to draw attention to an interesting semilinear parabolic equation that arose when describing the chaotic dynamics of a polymer molecule in a liquid. This equation is nonlocal in time and contains a term, called the interaction potential, that depends on the time‐integral of the solution over the entire interval of solving the problem. In fact, one needs to know the “future” in order to determine the coefficient in this term, that is, the causality principle is violated. The existence of a weak solution of the initial boundary value problem is proven. The interaction potential satisfies fairly general conditions and can have arbitrary growth at infinity. The uniqueness of this solution is established with restrictions on the length of the considered time interval.

The behavior of a finite difference approximation to a singular initial boundary value problem

We develop difference approximations to a singular parabolic initial-boundary value problem and its corresponding steady-state problem. A critical value for the existence of nonnegative solutions to the discrete steady state system is established. Convergence of the computed critical values is obtained. The long time behavior for the approximated solution of the parabolic problem is investigated. It is shown that the behavior of the discrete system is consistent with that of the continuous one

Global existence, uniqueness, and continuous dependence for a semilinear initial value problem

In this paper, we consider the semilinear initial value problem associated with an operator A whose spectrum lies in a sector of the complex plane and whose resolvent satisfies (z−A)⁻¹M|z|^γ for some −1<γ<0 and all z outside the sector. The properties of existence and uniqueness of global mild solutions and continuous dependence on the initial data are investigated.     

Global Existence and blowup phenomenon for a 1D radiation hydrodynamics model problem

We consider the global existence of classical solutions and blowup phenomena for a spatially one‐dimensional radiation hydrodynamics model problem, which consists of a scalar Burgers‐type equation coupled with a nonlocal advection‐reaction equation for radiation intensity. The model can be seen as an extension of the well‐known Hamer model that includes additionally the effects of scattering. It is well‐known that the initial value problem for Burgers' equation cannot be solved classically as soon as the derivative of the initial datum is negative somewhere. For our model problem, there is a critical negative number such that if the spatial derivative of the initial function is larger than this number, the associated initial‐value problem admits a global classical solution. However, when the spatial derivative of the initial data is below another negative threshold number, the initial value problem can also not be solved classically. Moreover, when there does not exist a global classical solution, it is shown that the first spatial derivative of solution must blow up in finite time. The results of the paper generalize the findings of Kawashima and Nishibata for the Hamer model. Copyright © 2012 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

We provide an algorithm to compute the depth of the potential well with the help of Mathematica, and derive the invariant subsets, global existence and blowup of solutions. Moreover, we obtain the invariant subsets, global existence and blowup of solutions for the critical case. Copyright © 2011 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Exponential stability for a one‐dimensional compressible viscous micropolar fluid

In this paper, we consider one‐dimensional compressible viscous and heat‐conducting micropolar fluid, being in a thermodynamical sense perfect and polytropic. The homogenous boundary conditions for velocity, microrotation, and temperature are introduced. This problem has a global solution with a priori estimates independent of time; with the help of this result, we first prove the exponential stability of solution in (H¹(0,1))⁴, and then we establish the global existence and exponential stability of solutions in (H²(0,1))⁴ under the suitable assumptions for initial data. The results in this paper improve those previously related results. Copyright © 2015 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

The Cauchy–Neumann problem for a multi‐dimensional isentropic hydrodynamic model for semiconductors

We investigate a multi‐dimensional isentropic hydrodynamic (Euler–Poisson) model for semiconductors, where the energy equation is replaced by the pressure–density relation p(n) . We establish the global existence of smooth solutions for the Cauchy–Neumann problem with small perturbed initial data and homogeneous Neumann boundary conditions. We show that, as t→+∞, the solutions converge to the non‐constant stationary solutions of the corresponding drift–diffusion equations. Moreover, we also investigate the existence and uniqueness of the stationary solutions for the corresponding drift–diffusion equations. Copyright © 2005 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Algebraic interface‐based coarsening AMG preconditioner for multi‐scale sparse matrices with applications to radiation hydrodynamics computation

Coarsening is a crucial component of algebraic multigrid (AMG) methods for iteratively solving sparse linear systems arising from scientific and engineering applications. Its application largely determines the complexity of the AMG iteration operator. Usually, high operator complexities lead to fast convergence of the AMG method; however, they require additional memory and as such do not scale as well in parallel computation. In contrast, although low operator complexities improve parallel scalability, they often lead to deterioration in convergence. This study introduces a new type of coarsening strategy called algebraic interface‐based coarsening that yields a better balance between convergence and complexity for a class of multi‐scale sparse matrices. Numerical results for various model‐type problems and a radiation hydrodynamics practical application are provided to show the effectiveness of the proposed AMG solver.     

Local well‐posedness and blow‐up criterion for a compressible Navier‐Stokes‐Fourier‐P1 approximate model arising in radiation hydrodynamics

We establish a local well‐posedness and a blow‐up criterion of strong solutions for the compressible Navier‐Stokes‐Fourier‐P1 approximate model arising in radiation hydrodynamics. For the local well‐posedness result, we do not need the assumption on the positivity of the initial density and it may vanish in an open subset of the domain.

Pointwise structure of a radiation hydrodynamic model in one-dimension

In this paper, we study the nonlinear stability and the pointwise structure around a constant equilibrium for a radiation hydrodynamic model in 1-dimension, in which the behavior of the fluid is described by a full Euler equation with certain radiation effect. It is well-known that the classical solutions of the Euler equation in 1-D may blow up in finite time for general initial data. The global existence of the solution in this paper means that the radiation effect stabilizes the system and prevents the formation of singularity when the initial data is small. To study the precise effect of the radiation in this model, we also treat the pointwise estimates of the solution for the original nonlinear problem by combining the Green's function for the linearized radiation hydrodynamic equations with the Duhamel's principle. The result in this paper shows that the pointwise structure of this model is similar to that of full Navier-Stokes equations in 1-D.     

Large‐time behavior of solutions to the Rosenau equation with damped term

In this paper, we consider the initial value problem for the Rosenau equation with damped term. The decay structure of the equation is of the regularity‐loss type, which causes the difficulty in high‐frequency region. Under small assumption on the initial value, we obtain the decay estimates of global solutions for n≥1. The proof also shows that the global solutions may be approximated by the solutions to the corresponding linear problem for n≥2. We prove that the global solutions may be approximated by the superposition of nonlinear diffusion wave for n = 1. Copyright © 2016 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Smooth solutions for one‐dimensional relativistic radiation hydrodynamic equations

In this research article, we investigated the existence of local smooth solutions for relativistic radiation hydrodynamic equations in one spatial variable. The proof is based on a classical iteration method and the Banach contraction mapping principle. However, because of the complexity of relativistic radiation hydrodynamics equations, we first rewrite this system into a semilinear form to construct the iteration scheme and then use left eigenvectors to decouple the system instead of applying standard energy method on symmetric hyperbolic systems. Different from multidimensional case, we just use the characteristic method, which can keep the properties of the initial data. Copyright © 2015 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Simultaneous inversion of two initial values for a time‐fractional diffusion‐wave equation

This study is devoted to recovering two initial values for a time‐fractional diffusion‐wave equation from boundary Cauchy data. We provide the uniqueness result for recovering two initial values simultaneously by the method of Laplace transformation and analytic continuation. And then we use a nonstationary iterative Tikhonov regularization method to solve the inverse problem and propose a finite dimensional approximation algorithm to find good approximations to the initial values. Numerical examples in one‐ and two‐dimensional cases are provided to show the effectiveness of the proposed method.
