Weak solutions for a singular beam equation

This paper deals with a dynamic Gao beam of infinite length subjected to a moving concentrated Dirac mass. Under appropriate regularity assumptions on the initial data, the problem possesses a weak solution which is obtained as the limit of a sequence of solutions of regularized problems.

Solvability for a drift-diffusion system with Robin boundary conditions

This paper focuses on a drift-diffusion system subjected to boundedly non dissipative Robin boundary conditions. A general existence result with large initial conditions is established by using suitable L1, L2 and trace estimates. Finally, two examples coming from the corrosion and the self-gravitation model are analyzed.

Well-posedness of a Debye type system endowed with a full wave equation

We prove well-posedness for a transport-diffusion problem coupled with a wave equation for the potential. We assume that the initial data are small. A bilinear form in the spirit of Kato's proof for the Navier-Stokes equations is used, coupled with suitable estimates in Chemin-Lerner spaces. In the one dimensional case, we get well-posedness for arbitrarily large initial data by using Gagliardo-Nirenberg inequalities.

A generalized Cauchy-Lipschitz theorem in low regularity spaces

We prove well-posedness for some abstract differential equations of the first order. Our result covers the usual case of Lipschitz composition operators. It also contains the case of some integro-differential operators acting on spaces with low regularity indexes. The loss of derivatives induced by such operators has to be lower than one, in order to be dominated by the first order derivative involved in the problem.

On the Doi-Edwards and K-BKZ rheological models for polymer fluids: an existence result for shear flows

This paper establishes the existence of smooth solutions for the Doi-Edwards rheological model of viscoelastic polymer fluids in shear flows. The problem turns out to be formally equivalent to a K-BKZ equation but with constitutive functions spanning beyond the usual mathematical framework. We prove, for small enough initial data, that the solution remains in the domain of hyperbolicity of the equation for all $t \geq 0$.

Well posedness of a linearized fractional derivative fluid model

The one-dimensional fractional derivative Maxwell model (e.g. Palade et al. Rheol. Acta 35, 265, 1996), of importance in modeling the linear viscoelastic response in the glass transition region, has been generalized in Palade et al. Int. J. Non-Linear Mech. 37, 315, 1999, to objective three-dimensional constitutive equations (CEs) for both fluids and solids. Regarding the rest state stability of the fluid CE, in Heibig and Palade J. Math. Phys. 49, 043101, 2008, we gave a proof for the existence of weak solutions to the corresponding boundary value problem. The aim of this work is to achieve the study of the existence and uniqueness of the aforementioned solutions and to present smoothness results.
