We study the effect of a periodic roughness on a Neumann boundary condition. We show that, as in the case of a Dirichlet boundary condition, it is possible to approach this condition by a more complex law on a domain without rugosity, called wall law. This approach is however different from that usually used in Dirichlet case. In particular, we show that this wall law can be explicitly written ...

We prove an h-principle with boundary condition for a certain class of sheaves Ψ: Emb d −→ Top. The techniques used in the proof come from the study of the homotopy type of the cobordism categories, and they are of simplicial and categorical nature. Applying the main result of this paper we recover the homotopy equivalence BCk,d ≃ Ω d−1Th(γ⊥ k,d) of [2] and [3].

This paper begins with an overview of the boundary condition capturing approach to solving problems with interfaces. Although, the authors’ original motivation was to extend the ghost fluid method from compressible to incompressible flow, the elliptic nature of incompressible flow quickly quenched the idea that ghost cells could be defined and used in the usual manner. Instead the boundary cond...

Determining the correct matching boundary condition is fundamental to our understanding of several everyday problems. Despite over a century of scientific work, existing velocity boundary conditions are unable to consistently explain and capture the complete physics associated with certain common but complex problems, such as moving contact lines and corner flows. The widely used Maxwell and Na...

The boundary conditions for a multicomponent effective wave function are obtained in the eight-band Kane model. The relations are established between boundary-condition matrix elements and the Kane Hamiltonian parameters in constitutive semiconductors. In general, these relations are incompatible with component-bycomponent continuity of the effective wave function, traditionally employed in mul...

We analyse boundary conformal field theories on random surfaces using the conformal gauge approach of David, Distler and Kawai. The crucial point is the choice of boundary conditions on the Liouville field. We discuss the Weyl anomaly cancellation for Polyakov’s non-critical open bosonic string with Neumann, Dirichlet and free boundary conditions. Dirichlet boundary conditions on the Liouville ...

This paper offers a simple macroscopic approach to the question of the slip boundary condition to be imposed upon the tangential component of the fluid velocity at a solid boundary. Plausible reasons are advanced for believing that it is the energy equation rather than the momentum equation that determines the correct fluid-mechanical boundary condition. The scheme resulting therefrom furnishes...
