A qualitative analysis of a A-monomer model with inflammation processes for Alzheimer's disease

Ionel Ciuperca, Laurent Pujo-Menjouet, Leon Matar-Tine +2

We introduce and study a new model for the progression of Alzheimer's disease incorporating the interactions of A-monomers, oligomers, microglial cells and interleukins with neu…

New Temperature Dependent Configurational Probability Diffusion Equation For Diluted FENE Polymer Fluids: Existence of Solution Results

Ionel Sorin Ciuperca, Liviu Iulian Palade

The theory for the non-isothermal rheology of polymer fluids proposed in [14] used several approximations including the so-called linear gradient approximations for the temperature…

Stationary solutions of the Navier-Stokes-Fourier system in planar domains with impermeable boundary

I. S. Ciuperca, E. Feireisl, M. Jai +1

The existence of weak solutions to the Navier-Stokes-Fourier system describing the stationary states of a compressible, viscous, and heat conducting fluid in bounded 2D-domains is…

Analysis of a cavitation model including bubbles in thin film lubrication

Alfredo Jaramillo, Guy Bayada, Ionel Ciuperca +1

In the lubrication area, which is concerned with thin film flow, cavitation has been considered as a fundamental element to correctly describe the characteristics of lubricated mec…

A rigorous derivation of the stationary compressible Reynolds equation via the Navier-Stokes equations

I. S. Ciuperca, E. Feireisl, M. Jai +1

We provide a rigorous derivation of the compressible Reynolds system as a singular limit of the compressible (barotropic) Navier-Stokes system on a thin domain. In particular, the…

Existence and uniqueness of a density probability solution for the stationary Doi-Edwards equation

Ionel Sorin Ciuperca, Arnaud Heibig

We prove the existence, uniqueness and non negativity of solutions for a nonlinear stationary Doi-Edwards equation. The existence is proved by a perturbation argument. We get the u…

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

Ionel Sorin Ciuperca, Arnaud Heibig, Liviu Iulian Palade

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 e…

Fragmentation and monomer lengthening of rod-like polymers, a relevant model for prion proliferation

Ionel Sorin Ciuperca, Erwan Hingant, Liviu Iulian Palade +1

The Greer, Pujo-Menjouet andWebb model [Greer et al., J. Theoret. Biol., 242 (2006), 598-606] for prion dynamics was found to be in good agreement with experimental observations un…

The FENE dumbbell polymer model: existence and uniqueness of solutions for the momentum balance equation

Adriana Valentina Busuioc, Ionel Sorin Ciuperca, Dragos Iftimie +1

We consider the FENE dumbbell polymer model which is the coupling of the incompressible Navier-Stokes equations with the corresponding Fokker-Planck-Smoluchowski di ffusion equatio…

Lack of contact in a lubricated system

Ionel Sorin Ciuperca, José Ignacio Tello

We consider the problem of a rigid surface moving over a flat plane. The surfaces are separated by a small gap filled by a lubricant fluid. The relative position of the surfaces is…

The steady state configurational distribution diffusion equation of the standard FENE dumbbell polymer model: existence and uniqueness of solutions for arbitrary velocity gradients

Ionel Sorin Ciuperca, Liviu Iulian Palade

The configurational distribution function, solution of an evolution (diffusion) equation of the Fokker-Planck-Smoluchowski type, is (at least part of) the corner stone of polymer d…
