About Non-Fickian Hyperbolic Diffusion
Fick’s law expresses the proportionality of solute flux with respect to concentration gradient. Similar relations are Darcy’s law for the fluid flow in porous media, Ohm’s law for the electric flux and Fourier’s law for heat transfers. When introduced in the corresponding balance equations, these flux laws yield diffusion equations of parabolic character. Different attempts have been made to ob...
متن کاملNon-Fickian Diffusion in Thin Polymer Films
Diffusion of penetrants through polymers often does not follow the standard Fickian model. Such anomalous behavior can cause difficulty when designing polymer networks for specific uses. One type of non-Fickian behavior that results is so-called case I1 diffusion, where Fickian-like fronts initially move like fi with a transition to a non-Fickian concentration profile and front speed for modera...
متن کاملDiffusion in Inhomogeneous Systems
Single-particle diffusion, also known as Brownian motion, is the random motion of a particle in space due to collisions with its surrounding medium. The theory of diffusion in a homogeneous medium, one with a constant diffusion coefficient, is well established and recognized. The theoretical basis of diffusion in heterogeneous environments, where the diffusion coefficient varies in space, is fa...
متن کاملNon-Fickian diffusion and the accumulation of methane bubbles in deep-water sediments.
In the absence of fractures, methane bubbles in deep-water sediments can be immovably trapped within a porous matrix by surface tension. The dominant mechanism of transfer of gas mass therefore becomes the diffusion of gas molecules through porewater. The accurate description of this process requires non-Fickian diffusion to be accounted for, including both thermal diffusion and gravitational a...
متن کاملA Second Order Approximation for Quasilinear Non-Fickian Diffusion Models
In this paper initial boundary value problems, defined using quasilinear diffusion equations of Volterra type, are considered. These equations arise for instance to describe diffusion processes in viscoelastic media whose behaviour is represented by a Voigt-Kelvin model or a Maxwell model. We propose a finite difference discretization defined on a general nonuniform grid and we show second conv...
