An evolutionary continuous casting problem of Stefan type

A Hybrid Modeling for Continuous Casting Scheduling Problem

This paper deals with a multi-agent-based interval type-2 fuzzy (IT2F) expert systemfor scheduling steel continuous casting. Continuous caster scheduling is a complex and extensiveprocess that needs expert staff. In this study, a distributed multi-agent-based structure is proposed as asolution. The agents used herein can cooperate with each other via various communication protocols.To facilitat...

An Inverse Stefan Problem

Nonlinear Two-Phase Stefan Problem

In this paper we consider a nonlinear two-phase Stefan problem in one-dimensional space. The problem is mapped into a nonlinear Volterra integral equation for the free boundary.

A Stefan problem on an evolving surface.

We formulate a Stefan problem on an evolving hypersurface and study the well posedness of weak solutions given L(1) data. To do this, we first develop function spaces and results to handle equations on evolving surfaces in order to give a natural treatment of the problem. Then, we consider the existence of solutions for L(∞) data; this is done by regularization of the nonlinearity. The regulari...

Homogenization of a Doubly Nonlinear Stefan-Type Problem

Temperature and phase evolution in phase transitions are represented here by coupling the energy balance equation with a multivalued constitutive relation between the density of internal energy and the temperature, and with a nonlinear conduction law. This doubly nonlinear problem generalizes the classical Stefan model. Existence of a weak solution is proved via time discretization, a priori es...
