Modelling silicosis: existence, uniqueness and basic properties of solutions
Fernando P. da Costa, João T. Pinto, Rafael Sasportes
We present a model for the silicosis disease mechanism following the original proposal by Tran, Jones, and Donaldson (1995) [9], as modified recently by da Costa, Drmota, and Grinf…
Bifurcations analysis of the twist-Fréedericksz transition in a nematic liquid-crystal cell with pre-twist boundary conditions: the asymmetric case
Fernando P. da Costa, Maria Isavel Méndez, João T. Pinto
In the paper [Eur. J. of Appl. Math. \textbf{20}, (2009) 269--287] by da Costa et al. the twist-Fréedericksz transition in a nematic liquid crystal one-dimensional cell of lenght $…
Rates of convergence to scaling profiles in a submonolayer deposition model and the preservation of memory of the initial condition
Fernando P. da Costa, João T. Pinto, Rafael Sasportes
We establish rates of convergence of solutions to scaling (or similarity) profiles in a coagulation type system modelling submonolayer deposition. We prove that, although all memor…
The Redner - Ben-Avraham - Kahng coagulation system with constant coefficients: the finite dimensional case
F. P. da Costa, J. T. Pinto, R. Sasportes
We study the behaviour as of solutions to the Redner--Ben-Avraham--Kahng coagulation system with positive and compactly supported initial data, rigorously p…
