STRONG COMPACTNESS OF APPROXIMATE SOLUTIONS TO DEGENERATE ELLIPTIC-HYPERBOLIC EQUATIONS WITH DISCONTINUOUS FLUX FUNCTION

Under a non-degeneracy condition on the nonlinearities we show that sequences of approximate entropy solutions of mixed elliptic-hyperbolic equations are strongly precompact in the general case of a Caratheodory flux vector. The proofs are based on deriving localization principles for H-measures associated to sequences of measurevalued functions. This main result implies existence of solutions to degenerate parabolic convection-diffusion equations with discontinuous flux. Moreover, it provides a framework in which one can prove convergence of various types of approximate solutions, such as those generated by the vanishing viscosity method and numerical schemes.     

PERTURBED PERIODIC SOLUTIONFOR BOUSSINESQ EQUATION

We consider the solution of the good Boussinesq equation Utt -Uxx ＋ Uxxxx = （U2）xx, -∞ 〈 x 〈 ∞, t ≥ 0, with periodic initial value U（x, 0） = ε（μ ＋ φ（x））, Ut（x, 0） = εψ（x）, -∞ 〈 x 〈 ∞, where μ = 0, φ（x） and ψ（x） are 2π-periodic functions with 0-average value in [0, 2π], and ε is small. A two parameter Bcklund transformation is found and provide infinite conservation laws for the good Boussinesq equation. The periodic solution is then shown to be uniformly bounded for all small ε, and the H1-norm is uniformly bounded and thus guarantees the global existence. In the case when the initial data is in the simplest form φ（x） = μ＋a sin kx, ψ（x） = b cos kx, an approximation to the solution containing two terms is constructed via the method of multiple scales. By using the energy method, we show that for any given number T 〉 0, the difference between the true solution u（x, t; ε） and the N-th partial sum of the asymptotic series is bounded by εN＋1 multiplied by a constant depending on T and N, for all -∞ 〈 x 〈 ∞, 0 ≤ ｜ε｜t ≤ T and 0 ≤ ｜ε｜≤ε0.     

POSITIVE SOLUTIONS FOR PARAMETRIC EQUIDIFFUSIVE p-LAPLACIAN EQUATIONS

We consider a parametric Dirichlet problem driven by the p-Laplacian with a Carath′eodory reaction of equidiffusive type. Our hypotheses incorporate as a special case the equidiffusive p-logistic equation. We show that if λ1 0 is the principal eigenvalue of the Dirichlet negative p-Laplacian and λ λ1(λ being the parameter), the problem has a unique positive solution, while for λ∈(0,λ1], the problem has no positive solution.

Some examples are also listed to show that the assumptions of theorems, in certain senses, are the best possible.     

A note on initial value problem for the generalized Tricomi equation in a mixed-type domain

In this paper, we study the well-posedness of initial value problem for n-dimensional gener-alized Tricomi equation in the mixed-type domain {(t,x):t∈[1,+∞),x∈Rn} with the initial data given on the line t=1 in Hadamard's sense. By taking partial Fourier transformation, we obtain the explicit expression of the solution in terms of two integral operators and further establish the global estimate of such a solution for a class of initial data and source term. Finally, we establish the global solution in time direction for a semilinear problem used the estimate.

SPHERICAL SYMMETRIC SOLUTIONS FOR THE MOTION OF RELATIVISTIC MEMBRANES AND NULL MEMBRANES IN THE REISSNER-NORDSTROM SPACE-TIME

In this article, we concern the motion of relativistic membranes and null mem- branes in the Reissner-Nordstrom space-time. The equation of relativistic membranes moving in the Reissner-Nordstrom space-time is derived and some properties are discussed. Spherical symmetric solutions for the motion are illustrated and some interesting physical phenomena are discovered. The equations of the null membranes are derived and the exact solutions are also given. Spherical symmetric solutions for null membranes are just the two horizons of Reissner-NordstrSm space-time.     

Well- and Ill-Posedness Issues for a Class of 2D Wave Equation with Exponential Growth

Extending the previous work [1], we establish well-posedness results for a more general class of semilinear wave equations with exponential growth. First, we investigate the well-posedness in the energy space. Then, we prove the propagation of the regularity in the Sobolev spaces HS（IR^2） with s 〉 1. Finally, an ill-posedness result is obtained in HS（IR^2） for s 〈 1.

Bifurcations and chaos in Duffing equation with damping and external excitations

Duffng equation with damping and external excitations is investigated.By using Melnikov method and bifurcation theory,the criterions of existence of chaos under periodic perturbations are obtained.By using second-order averaging method,the criterions of existence of chaos in averaged system under quasi-periodic perturbations forff=nω+εσ,n=2,4,6(whereσis not rational toω)are investigated.However,the criterions of existence of chaos for n=1,3,5,7-20 can not be given.The numerical simulations verify the theoretical analysis,show the occurrence of chaos in the averaged system and original system under quasiperiodic perturbation for n=1,2,3,5,and expose some new complex dynamical behaviors which can not be given by theoretical analysis.In particular,the dynamical behaviors under quasi-periodic perturbations are different from that under periodic perturbations,and the period-doubling bifurcations to chaos has not been found under quasi-periodic perturbations.

We study the multiplicity of positive solutions and their limiting behavior as ε tends to zero for a class of coupled nonlinear Schrdinger system in RN .

Also, we verify that these solutions concentrate at a global minimum point of the least energy function.     

THE CARBUNCLE PHENOMENON IS INCURABLE

Numerical approximations of multi-dimensional shock waves sometimes ex- hibit an instability called the carbuncle phenomenon. Techniques for suppressing carbuncles are trial-and-error and lack in reliability and generality, partly because theoretical knowledge about carbuncles is equally unsatisfactory. It is not known which numerical schemes are affected in which circumstances, what causes carbuncles to appear and whether carbuncles are purely mimerical artifacts or rather features of a continuum equation or model. This article presents evidence towards the latter： we propose that carbuncles are a special class of entropy solutions which can be physically correct in some circumstances. Using ＂filaments＂, we trigger a single carbuncle in a new and more reliable way, and compute the structure in detail in similarity coordinates. We argue that carbuncles can, in some circumstances, be valid vanishing viscosity limits. Trying to suppress them is making a physical assumption that may be false.

A REACTIVE DYNAMIC CONTINUUM USER EQUILIBRIUM MODEL FOR BI-DIRECTIONAL PEDESTRIAN FLOWS

In this paper, a reactive dynamic user equilibrium model is extended to simulate two groups of pedestrians traveling on crossing paths in a continuous walking facility. Each group makes path choices to minimize the travel cost to its destination in a reactive manner based on instantaneous information. The model consists of a conservation law equation coupled with an Eikonal-type equation for each group. The velocity-density relationship of pedestrian movement is obtained via an experimental method. The model is solved using a finite volume method for the conservation law equation and a fast-marching method for the Eikonal-type equation on unstructured grids. The numerical results verify the rationality of the model and the validity of the numerical method. Based on this continuum model, a number of results, e.g., the formation of strips or moving clusters composed of pedestrians walking to the same destination, are also observed.
