We propose a new approach to the study of diffusion dynamics in vibrated granular systems. The dynamic of a granular material is mainly defined by dry friction interactions. This type of interaction is difficult to model for a large quantity of particles. ...
Solutes and drugs are transported in the circulatory system by the blood for which absorption processes occur at the arterial walls. The comprehension, modeling, and numerical simulation of these phenomena, both in physiological and pathological conditions ...
This thesis addresses the problem of a statistical description of the transport of sediment as bed load. It highlights the role of fluctuations arising during the transport process, and their impact on macroscopic averages. The results presented here are b ...
This paper concerns a model of bed load transport, which describes the advection and dispersion of coarse particles carried by a turbulent water stream. The challenge is to develop a microstructural approach that, on the one hand, yields a parsimonious des ...
The paper reviews our recent attempts at modelling bed load transport in mountain rivers. This is a longstanding issue that has attracted considerable attention over the last century. While a number of field and laboratory studies have been instrumental in ...
In the diffusion model of chemical reactions, the encounter (reaction) rate between reactant particles is governed by the Smoluchowski equation, which is a diffusion equation in a field of forces. We consider crowded environments where the particles diffus ...
In this paper we prove the global in time well-posedness of the following non-local diffusion equation with αε[0,2/3): ∂tu={(−Δ)−1u}Δu+αu2,u(t=0)=u0. The initial condition u0 is positive, rad ...
Representations of solutions of equations describing the diffusion and quantum dynamics of particles in a Riemannian manifold are discussed under the assumption that the mass of particles is anisotropic and depends on both time and position. These equation ...
An epidemic model is formulated by a reaction–diffusion system where the spatial pattern formation is driven by cross-diffusion. The reaction terms describe the local dynamics of susceptible and infected species, whereas the diffusion terms account for the ...
Even though flow in natural rivers and channels is generally unsteady, only a few studies on turbulent structures in unsteady open-channel flows have been carried out. In hydraulic engineering problems, unsteady flow is often approximated with concepts of ...
