This paper studies the boundary behaviour at mechanical equilibrium at the ends of a finite interval of a class of systems of interacting particles with monotone decreasing repulsive force. Our setting covers pile-ups of dislocations, dislocation dipoles and dislocation walls. The main challenge is to control the nonlocal nature of the pairwise particle interactions. Using matched asymptotic expansions for the particle positions and rigorous development of an appropriate energy via Gamma-convergence, we obtain the equilibrium equation solved by the boundary layer correction, associate an energy with an appropriate scaling to this correction, and provide decay rates into the bulk.

In this paper we study the asymptotic behavior of solutions to systems of strongly coupled integral equations with oscillatory coefficients. The system of equations is motivated by a peridynamic model of the deformation of heterogeneous media that additionally accounts for short-range forces. We consider the vanishing nonlocality limit on the same length scale as the heterogeneity and show that the systems effective behavior is characterized by a coupled system of local equations that are elliptic in the sense of Legendre-Hadamard. This effective system is characterized by a fourth-order tensor that shares properties with Cauchy elasticity tensors that appear in the classical equilibrium equations for linearized elasticity.
In this paper we consider a family of three-dimensional problems in thermoelasticity for linear elliptic membrane shells and study the asymptotic behaviour of the solution when the thickness tends to zero.We fully characterize with strong convergence results the limit as the unique solution of a two-dimensional problem, where the reference domain is the common middle surface of the family of three-dimensional shells. The problems are dynamic and the constitutive thermoelastic law is given by the Duhamel-Neumann relation.
We consider conservative cross-diffusion systems for two species where individual motion rates depend linearly on the local density of the other species. We develop duality estimates and obtain stability and approximation results. We first control the time evolution of the gap between two bounded solutions by means of its initial value. As a by product, we obtain a uniqueness result for bounded solutions valid for any space dimension, under a smallness assumption. Using a discrete counterpart of our duality estimates, we prove the convergence of random walks with local repulsion in one dimensional discrete space to cross-diffusion systems. More precisely, we prove sharp quantitative estimates for the gap between the stochastic process and the cross-diffusion system. We complete this study with a rough but general estimate and convergence results, when the population and the number of sites become large.
In this paper we study the following parabolic system begin{equation*} Delta u -partial_t u =|u|^{q-1}u,chi_{{ |u|>0 }}, qquad u = (u^1, cdots , u^m) , end{equation*} with free boundary $partial {|u | >0}$. For $0leq q<1$, we prove optimal growth rate for solutions $u $ to the above system near free boundary points, and show that in a uniform neighbourhood of any a priori well-behaved free boundary point the free boundary is $C^{1, alpha}$ in space directions and half-Lipschitz in the time direction.
In this paper we develop the global symbolic calculus of pseudo-differential operators generated by a boundary value problem for a given (not necessarily self-adjoint or elliptic) differential operator. For this, we also establish elements of a non-self-adjoint distribution theory and the corresponding biorthogonal Fourier analysis. We give applications of the developed analysis to obtain a-priori estimates for solutions of operators that are elliptic within the constructed calculus.
