Level set approach for fractional mean curvature flows
This paper is concerned with the study of a geometric flow whose law involves a singular integral operator. This operator is used to define a non-local mean curvature of a set. Moreover the associated flow appears in two important applications: dislocation dynamics and phasefield theory for fractional reaction-diffusion equations. It is defined by using the level set method. The main results of...
متن کاملNeckpinch Singularities in Fractional Mean Curvature Flows
In this paper we consider the evolution of sets by a fractional mean curvature flow. Our main result states that for any dimension n > 2, there exists an embedded surface in R evolving by fractional mean curvature flow, which developes a singularity before it can shrink to a point. When n > 3 this result generalizes the analogue result of Grayson [18] for the classical mean curvature flow. Inte...
متن کاملA level set approach to anisotropic flows with curvature regularization
Modeling and simulation of faceting effects on surfaces are topics of growing importance in modern nanotechnology. Such effects pose various theoretical and computational challenges, since they are caused by non-convex surface energies, which lead to ill-posed evolution equations for the surfaces. In order to overcome the ill-posedness, regularization of the energy by a curvature-dependent term...
متن کاملLevel set approach to mean curvature flow in arbitrary codimension
We develop a level set theory for the mean curvature evolution of surfaces with arbitrary co-dimension, thus generalizing the previous work [6, 13] on hypersurfaces. The main idea is to surround the evolving surface of co-dimension k in R by a family of hypersurfaces (the level sets of a function) evolving with normal velocity equal to the sum of the (d − k) smallest principal curvatures. The e...
متن کاملLevel-Set method and stability condition for curvature-driven flows
We consider models for the simulation of curvature-driven incompressible bifluid flows, where the surface tension term is discretized explicitly. From this formulation a numerical stability condition arises for which we present a new theoretical estimation for low and medium Reynolds numbers. We illustrate our analysis with numerical simulations of microfluidic flows using Level Set method. Fin...
