Limite asymptotique pour le modèle de BGK

We present, for the BGK equation, asymptotic limits leading to various equations of incompressible and compressible fluid mechanics: the Navier-Stokes equations, the linearized Navier-Stokes equations, the Euler equation, the linearized Euler equation, and the compressible Euler equation. We state a convergence theorem for the nonlinear Navier-Stokes, as well as a result for the linear Navier-Stokes case, and for the compressible Euler equation.     

Modèle topologique pour des applications de Hénon complexes

In order to describe the dynamics of the complex Hénon map $H_{a\text{,}c}:\left(\begin{array}{c}\hfill x\hfill \\ \hfill y\hfill \end{array}\right)?\left(\begin{array}{c}\hfill P_c(x)?ay\hfill \\ \hfill x\hfill \end{array}\right)$, where $P_c:z?z^2+c$ has an attractive fixed point, we build a topological model $(g\text{,}Y)$. In this model Y is the complement in ${\mathbb{R}}^4$ of a cone over a solenoid lying in the unit 3-sphere, and $g\text{:}Y\to Y$ is a map given in spherical coordinates by $g(r\text{,}\theta )=(r^2\text{,}\sigma (\theta ))$, where σ is a solenoidal map of degree two. Then we prove the existence of a constant $\mathrm{\epsilon }>0$ such that any Hénon map $H_{a\text{,}c}$ with $0<|a|<\mathrm{\epsilon }$ is conjugate to our model $(g\text{,}Y)$.

Modèle électromagnétique d'objet dissimulé

We model propagation of electromagnetic waves in a medium, which is inhomogeneous with a rough layer, and which hides an object. We first get an effective medium, and then we solve the problem by integral equations.     

Justification asymptotique des hypothèses de Kirchhoff-Love pour une coque encastrée linéairement élastique

The displacement vector of a linearly elastic shell can be computed by using the twodimensional Koiter's model, based on the a priori Kirchhoff-Love assumptions. These hypotheses imply that the displacement of any point of the shell is an affine function of the transverse variable x₃. The term independent of x₃ of this approximation is equal to the displacement vector of the two-dimensional Koiter's model. The term linear in x₃ depends on the rotation vector of the normal. After an appropriate scaling, we here estimate the difference between the three-dimensional displacement and the affine function in the case of shells clamped along their entire lateral face. Besides, in the case of shells with uniformly elliptic middle surface, taking into account the term depending of the rotation of the normal, allows to improve the asymptotic estimate between the three-dimensionnal displacement and Koiter's bidimensional displacement.     

Existence et unicité pour le modéle de Nagdhi pour une coque peu réguliére

We give a simple proof of existence and uniqueness for Nagdhi 's model for shells whose midsurface can have discontinuous curvatures. This improves earlier proofs by Ciarlet, Miara and Bernadou, and Ciarlet and Miara for C³ -midsurfaces.     

Modèles pour les applications fibrées et les polysystèmes

We introduce a fibered version of the classical ‘horseshoe’ of Smale, that one can use to analyze the dynamical properties of diffeomorphisms with a normally hyperbolic invariant manifold and suitable homoclinic intersections. Our abstract model gives rise to fibered dynamics over the Bernoulli shift and to the more particular case of polysystems that we define here, which can be seen as the simultaneous iteration of several maps on the same space in any prescribed order.

Modèle à indice fonctionnel simple

This paper concerns a generalization of the “Single Index Model” when the explanatory variable is valued in an infinite dimensional space. Such model will be called the “Single Functional Index Model”. The main contribution of this study is to propose a functional framework which includes the classical vectorial case. Pointwise asymptotic properties are stated under less restrictive conditions on the law of the explanatory variable than what it is usually assumed in the vectorial case.

Un modèle ES–BGK pour des mélanges de gaz

In this note, we derive an ES–BGK model for gas mixtures that is able to give the correct Prandtl number obtained from the true Boltzmann equation. The derivation principle is based on the resolution of an entropy minimisation problem under moments constraints. The set of constraints is constructed by introducing a relaxation of some non-conserved moments. The non-conserved moments are dissipated according to some relaxation rates. Finally the BGK model that is obtained satisfies the classical properties of the Boltzmann operator for inert gas mixtures.

Le phénomène nous a incité à étudier le comportement asymptotique des solutions du problème d'évolution. Afin de rendre cette étude plus complète nous avons décidé de travailler en dimension 3 d'espace.Ce papier donne les résultats préliminaires à une étude un peu fine du comportement asymptotique. Nous allons en particulier établir un théorème de régularité et donner une majoration uniforme des dérivées secondes en espace des solutions dans le cas où S=0. Ces propriétés sont similaires à celles connues pour les équations de Navier-Stokes dans le cas bidimensionnel [13, 26] et généralisent à la dimension trois ceux que nous avons obtenus dans [10].La clef de le preuve du théorème d'existence et d'unicité est une estimation L en temps et en espace de la température T obtenue en découplant l'équation de l'énergie (0.3) et l'équation de Darcy (0.2). Ensuite on applique une méthode de point fixe. La régularité en espace est liée à la structure particulière de l'ouvert ainsi qu'à la nature des conditions limites. Cela étant acquis, les majorations uniformes en temps sont obtenues de façon assez classique. Nous étendons enfin à notre système les résultats obtenus par Foias et Temam [15] pour les équations de Navier-Stokes en dimension deux d'espace. Rappelons qu'il s'agit alors de montrer que la solution est parfaitement déterminée par ses valeurs prises sur un ensemble fini de points.Avant d'aller plus avant dans ce travail, signalons que l'on se ramène à des conditions aux limites homogènes en posant % MathType!MTEF!2!1!+-% feaafiart1ev1aaatCvAUfeBSjuyZL2yd9gzLbvyNv2CaerbuLwBLn% hiov2DGi1BTfMBaeXatLxBI9gBaerbd9wDYLwzYbItLDharqqtubsr% 4rNCHbGeaGqiVu0Je9sqqrpepC0xbbL8F4rqqrFfpeea0xe9Lq-Jc9% vqaqpepm0xbba9pwe9Q8fs0-yqaqpepae9pg0FirpepeKkFr0xfr-x% fr-xb9adbaqaaeGaciGaaiaabeqaamaabaabaaGcbaGaamivaiabg2% da9iabeI7aXjabgUcaRiaaigdacqGHsislcaGGOaGaamOEaiaac+ca% caWGObGaaiykaaaa!4004!\[T = \theta + 1 - (z/h)\].

We shall restrict our study to the case of a homogeneous isotropic medium filling a parallelepipedic cavity, one of the axis of which is colinear to the gravitational acceleration g.

S is a small parameter (Smin{(10⁶, 10^-6 Ra ^*)}) which will eventually vanish to zero.In an earlier work [10, 11], we studied the two-dimensional case for both the evolution and stationary problem and showed the existence uniqueness and regularity of the evolution problem. However, we did show that several stationary solutions exist.We were then led to study the asymptotic behaviour of the solution of the evolution problem. To make this study more general we decided to work in three-dimensional space.This article contains the preliminary results to a somewhat fine study to an asymptotic behaviour. More precisely, we establish a regularity theorem and give a uniform estimation in time of second-order space derivatives of the solutions in the case S=0. These properties are similar to those found in two-dimensional Navier-Stokes equations and extend the solutions obtained in [10] to three dimensions.The key to the proof of the existence and uniqueness theorem is an L estimation in space and time of temperature T obtained by rendering the energy equation (0.3) and the Darcy equation (0.2) independent. Then a fixed point method is applied. Space regularity is related to a particular structure of the domain and also to the type of boundary conditions. Uniform time estimates can thus be obtained by a fairly classical method.In the spirit of the Foias and Temam paper [15], we extend some of their results to our system and show that the solution is completely determined by its nodal values on a finite set.Before proceding further, it should be pointed out that the change of the unknown % MathType!MTEF!2!1!+-% feaafiart1ev1aaatCvAUfeBSjuyZL2yd9gzLbvyNv2CaerbuLwBLn% hiov2DGi1BTfMBaeXatLxBI9gBaerbd9wDYLwzYbItLDharqqtubsr% 4rNCHbGeaGqiVu0Je9sqqrpepC0xbbL8F4rqqrFfpeea0xe9Lq-Jc9% vqaqpepm0xbba9pwe9Q8fs0-yqaqpepae9pg0FirpepeKkFr0xfr-x% fr-xb9adbaqaaeGaciGaaiaabeqaamaabaabaaGcbaGaamivaiabg2% da9iabeI7aXjabgUcaRiaaigdacqGHsislcaGGOaGaamOEaiaac+ca% caWGObGaaiykaaaa!4004!\[T = \theta + 1 - (z/h)\] leads to homogeneous boundary conditions.

Existence de solutions pour le modèle dérive-diffusion avec terme d'avalanche

The aim of this Note is the study of a system of partial differential equations arising in semiconductors in the presence of the avalanche term and nonconstant mobilities. We prove an existence of variational solution using Schauder's fixed point theorem.     

Normalité asymptotique des estimateurs semiparamétriques dans le modèle de Cox avec covariable manquante nonignorable

Let T denote a random duration until some event of interest. In the Cox model $\text{λ}{}_{\mathrm{T}}\text{(t)}\text{e}{}^{\mathrm{\beta Z(t)}}$, if the value of Z at event time is unobserved, Dupuy and Mesbah (Lifetime Data Analysis 8 (2002) 99–115) have proposed to estimate the parameters β and $\text{Λ}{}_{\mathrm{T}}\text{(t)=∫}{}_0{}^{\mathrm{t}}\text{λ}{}_{\mathrm{T}}\text{(s)}\text{d}\text{s}$ by maximizing a likelihood obtained from a joint model for survival and the longitudinal covariate data. We show that the estimators derived from this joint likelihood are asymptotically normally distributed. To cite this article: J.-F. Dupuy et al., C. R. Acad. Sci. Paris, Ser. I 336 (2003).     

Theéeorème limite pour une equation differentielle stochastique anticipative

Ocone and Pardoux have introduced a stochastic differential equation in which the initial condition and the drift depend on the driving Brownian motion in an anticipative way. In this paper we prove a limit theorem for such equations when the Brownian motion is approximated by a sequence of piecewise linear processes     

Convergence d'un modèle à vitesses discrètes pour l'équation de Boltzmann-BGK

We consider a conservative and entropie discrete-velocity model for the Bathnagar-Gross-Krook (BGK) equation. In this model, the approximation of the Maxwellian is based on a discrete entropy minimization principle. First, we prove a consistency result for this approximation. Then, we demonstrate that the discrete-velocity model possesses a unique solution. Finally, the model is written in a continuous equation form, and we prove the convergence of its solution toward a solution of the BGK equation.

About the Berry-Esseen Theorem for weakly dependent sequences

We extend the method of Bergström for the rates of convergence in the central limit theorem to weakly dependent sequences. In particular, we prove that, for stationary and uniformly mixing sequences of real-valued and bounded random variables, the rate of convergence in the central limit theorem is of the order ofn ^–1/2 as soon as the sequence ( _p)p>0 of uniform mixing coefficients satisfies _p>0 p _p <.
