The Surface Cauchy-Born (SCB) method is a computational multi-scale method for the simulation of surface-dominated crystalline materials. We present an error analysis of the SCB method, focused on the role of surface relaxation. In a linearized 1D model we show that the error committed by the SCB method is O(1) in the mesh size; however, we are able to identify an alternative approximation parameter - the stiffness of the interaction potential - with respect to which the error in the mean strain is exponentially small. Our analysis naturally suggests an improvement of the SCB model by enforcing atomistic mesh spacing in the normal direction at the free boundary.

We focus on a highly nonlinear evolutionary abstract PDE system describing volume processes coupled with surfaces processes in thermoviscoelasticity, featuring the quasi-static momentum balance, the equation for the unidirectional evolution of an int
ernal variable on the surface, and the equations for the temperature in the bulk domain and the temperature on the surface. A significant example of our system occurs in the modeling for the unidirectional evolution of the adhesion between a body and a rigid support, subject to thermal fluctuations and in contact with friction. We investigate the related initial-boundary value problem, and in particular the issue of existence of global-in-time solutions, on an abstract level. This allows us to highlight the analytical features of the problem and, at the same time, to exploit the tight coupling between the various equations in order to deduce suitable estimates on (an approximation) of the problem. Our existence result is proved by passing to the limit in a carefully tailored approximate problem, and by extending the obtained local-in-time solution by means of a refined prolongation argument.
We study the mathematical properties of a general model of cell division structured with several internal variables. We begin with a simpler and specific model with two variables, we solve the eigenvalue problem with strong or weak assumptions, and d
educe from it the long-time convergence. The main difficulty comes from natural degeneracy of birth terms that we overcome with a regularization technique. We then extend the results to the case with several parameters and recall the link between this simplified model and the one presented in cite{CBBP1}; an application to the non-linear problem is also given, leading to robust subpolynomial growth of the total population.
In this paper, we present a semiclassical description of surface waves or modes in an elastic medium near a boundary, in spatial dimension three. The medium is assumed to be essentially stratified near the boundary at some scale comparable to the wav
e length. Such a medium can also be thought of as a surficial layer (which can be thick) overlying a half space. The analysis is based on the work of Colin de Verdi`ere on acoustic surface waves. The description is geometric in the boundary and locally spectral beneath it. Effective Hamiltonians of surface waves correspond with eigenvalues of ordinary differential operators, which, to leading order, define their phase velocities. Using these Hamiltonians, we obtain pseudodifferential surface wave equations. We then construct a parametrix. Finally, we discuss Weyls formulas for counting surface modes, and the decoupling into two classes of surface waves, that is, Rayleigh and Love waves, under appropriate symmetry conditions.
The over-relaxation approach is an alternative to the Jin-Xin relaxation method (Jin and Xin [1]) in order to apply the equilibrium source term in a more precise way (Coulette et al. [2, 3]). This is also a key ingredient of the Lattice-Boltzmann met
hod for achieving second order accuracy (Dellar [4]). In this work we provide an analysis of the over-relaxation kinetic scheme. We compute its equivalent equation, which is particularly useful for devising stable boundary conditions for the hidden kinetic variables.
A two-layer fluid system separated by a pycnocline in the form of an internal wave is considered. The lower layer is infinitely deep, with a higher density than the upper layer which is bounded above by a flat surface. The fluids are incompressible a
nd inviscid. A Hamiltonian formulation for the fluid dynamics is presented and it is shown that an appropriate scaling leads to the integrable Benjamin-Ono equation.
