When attacked by predators, flatfishes perform fast-starts that result in a rapid take-off from the ocean bottom on which they lie. High-speed video recordings of the blind side of flatfishes indicate that they expel a coherent jet of water from the blind-side opercular valve during take-off. Buccal pressure recordings in winter flounder (Pseudopleuronectes americanus) show that a buccal pressu...

An approximation procedure for the identiication of a nonlinear boundary heat transfer function in a one phase Stefan problem is presented. Alternatively the problem can be viewed as constructing a feedback control law for the control of the solidiication surface in the Stefan problem. The analysis is based on Hilbert space methods and convex analysis techniques. Numerical results combining two...

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.
