A moving boundary model of acrosomal elongation
A sperm penetrates an egg by extending a long, actin-filled tube known as the acrosomal process. This simple example of biomotility is one of the most dramatic. In Thyone, a 90 I~m process can extend in less than 10 s. Experiments have shown that actin monomers stored in the base of the sperm are transported to the growing tip of the acrosomai process where they add to the ends of the existing ...
متن کاملA Free { Boundary Problem in Dermal Drug
In this paper we study a free{boundary problem in a multicomponent domain. Our study was motivated by the mathematical modelling of dermal and transdermal drug delivery, where the multilayered skin model was considered. At the interface connecting two components the conservation of the ux and Nernst's distribution law hold and it is supposed that in any component there is a positive minimum con...
متن کاملA two-phase free boundary problem for a semilinear elliptic equation
In this paper we study a two-phase free boundary problem for a semilinear elliptic equation on a bounded domain $Dsubset mathbb{R}^{n}$ with smooth boundary. We give some results on the growth of solutions and characterize the free boundary points in terms of homogeneous harmonic polynomials using a fundamental result of Caffarelli and Friedman regarding the representation of functions whose ...
متن کاملTHE STEFAN PROBLEM WITH KINETIC FUNCTIONS AT THE FREE BOUNDARY
This paper considers a class of one-dimensional solidification problem in which kinetic undercooling is incorporated into the temperature condition at the interface. A model problem with nonlinear kinetic law is considered. The main result is an existence theorem. The mathematical effects of the kinetic term are discussed
متن کاملAsymptotics of a Free Boundary Problem
As was shown by Kaper and Kwong Diierential and Integral Equations 3, 353{362], there exists a unique R > 0, such that the diierential equation u 00 + 2 + 1 r u 0 + u ? u q = 0; r > 0; (0 q < 1, 0) admits a classical solution u, which is positive and monotone on (0; R) and which satisses the boundary conditions u 0 (0) = 0; u(R) = u 0 (R) = 0: In this article it is shown that u(0) is bounded, b...
