We study an evolutionary system of Cahn-Hilliard-Darcy type including mass source and transport effects. The system may arise in a number of physical situations related to phase separation phenomena with convection, with the main and most specific application being related to tumoral processes, where the variations of the mass may correspond to growth, or shrinking, of the tumor. We prove existence of weak solutions in the case when the configuration potential for the order parameter
In this paper, we study the global existence and pointwise behavior of classical solution to one dimensional isentropic Navier-Stokes equations with mixed type boundary condition in half space. Based on classical energy method for half space problem, the global existence of classical solution is established firstly. Through analyzing the quantitative relationships of Green's function between Cauchy problem and initial boundary value problem, we observe that the leading part of Green's function for the initial boundary value problem is composed of three items: delta function, diffusive heat kernel, and reflected term from the boundary. Then applying Duhamel's principle yields the explicit expression of solution. With the help of accurate estimates for nonlinear wave coupling and the elliptic structure of velocity, the pointwise behavior of the solution is obtained under some appropriate assumptions on the initial data. Our results prove that the solution converges to the equilibrium state at the optimal decay rate
Our aim in this paper is to analyze a model of glioma where oxygen drives cancer diffusion and proliferation. We prove the global well-posedness of the analytical problem and that, in the longtime, the illness does not disappear. Besides, the tumor dynamics increase the oxygen levels.
We study the boundary behaviour of solutions to second order parabolic linear equations in moving domains. Our main result is a higher order boundary Harnack inequality in C1 and Ck, α domains, providing that the quotient of two solutions vanishing on the boundary of the domain is as smooth as the boundary.
As a consequence of our result, we provide a new proof of higher order regularity of the free boundary in the parabolic obstacle problem.
