Shock Formation in a Multidimensional Viscoelastic Diffusive System
We examine a model for non-Fickian "sorption overshoot" behavior in diffusive polymer-penetrant systems. The equations of motion proposed by Cohen and White [SIAM J. Appl. Math., 51 (1991), pp. 472-483] are solved for two-dimensional problems using matched asymptotic expansions. The phenomenon of shock formation predicted by the model is examined and contrasted with similar behavior in classica...
متن کاملShock Wave Formation Process for a Multidimensional Scalar Conservation Law
We construct a global smooth approximate solution to a multidimensional scalar conservation law describing the shock wave formation process for initial data with small variation. In order to solve the problem, we modify the method of characteristics by introducing “new characteristics”, nonintersecting curves along which the (approximate) solution to the problem under study is constant. The pro...
متن کاملAdiabatic elimination in multidimensional diffusive barrier crossing
We consider the (reaction-coordinate) viscosity dependence of reaction-rate coefficients for the two-dimensional AgmonKosloff surface. We show that rate coefficients calculated from the Agmon-Hopfield sink-Smoluchowski equation are a lower bound, approaching asymptotically the two-dimensional result for fast reactive-mode diffusion. A modified equation, employing an effective potential in the s...
متن کاملRemarks on the formation and decay of multidimensional shock waves
In this paper, we present a formula describing the formation and decay of shock wave type solutions in some special cases. In [1] and [2], in the quadratic and general cases of convex nonlinearity, we consider the process of formation of shock waves for scalar conservation laws in the one-dimensional case. Recall that, in the construction suggested in these papers, the key role is played by the...
متن کاملDiffusive shock acceleration in radiation dominated environments
Context. Radio, X-ray, and gamma-ray observations provide us with strong evidence of particle acceleration to multi-TeV energies in various astrophysical sources. Diffusive shock acceleration is one of the most successful models explaining the presence of such high-energy particles. Aims. We discuss the impact of inverse Compton losses on the shock acceleration of electrons that takes place in ...
