A hybrid method to simulate unsteady multiphase flows is described. One phase is represented by moving particles and the other phase is defined on stationary mesh. The flow field is discretized by a conservative finite volume approximation on the stationary mesh, and the interface is automatically captured by the distribution of particles moving through the stationary mesh. The effects of surfa...

Strong asymmetry of electron mobility in InGaAs/InAlAs heterostructures (lattice matched to InP) with the presence of InAs quantum wires was observed. Self-assembled InAs quantum wires, embedded in an InGaAs matrix close to the hetero-interface, has a strong effect in electron conduction in the interface channel. The low temperature mobility for electrons moving parallel to the quantum wires is...

In this paper, solutions of one-phase direct and inverse Stefan problems are presented. The direct problem consists in a calculation of temperature distribution and of a function which describes the position of the moving interface, whilst the inverse problem consists in a calculation of temperature distribution as well as in the reconstruction of the function which describes the temperature di...

In this paper the possibility of application of the Adomian decomposition method for solving the moving boundary problem is presented. As an example of the moving boundary problem we consider a one-phase Stefan problem with Neumann’s boundary condition. This problem consists of finding the distribution of temperature in the domain and position of the moving interface. The validity of the approa...

We study a moving boundary value problem consisting of a viscous incompressible fluid moving and interacting with a nonlinear elastic solid shell. The fluid motion is governed by the Navier–Stokes equations, while the shell is modeled by the nonlinear Koiter shell model, consisting of bending and membrane tractions as well as inertia. The fluid is coupled to the solid shell through continuity o...

In this paper, we present a time and space rescaling scheme for the computation of moving interface problems. The idea is to map time–space such that the interfaces can evolve exponentially fast in the new time scale while the area/volume enclosed by the interface remains unchanged. The rescaling scheme significantly reduces the computation time (especially for slow growth), and enables one to ...

In this work, Boltzmann transform has been used to analyze the problem of freezing of pure Aluminum in semi-infinite domain. The uniqueness of solution (solidification front location) has been proved using the characteristics of the functions appeared in solution. The effect of density change on temperature distribution and errors resulting from ignoring this change have been investigated. The ...
