Travelling Waves in Nonlinear Diffusion-Convection Reaction

By: Brian H. Gilding,Robert Kersner

This monograph has grown out of research we started in 1987, although the foun dations were laid in the 1970's when both of us were working on our doctoral theses, trying to generalize the now classic paper of Oleinik, Kalashnikov and Chzhou on nonlinear degenerate diffusion. Brian worked under the guidance of Bert Peletier at the University of Sussex in Brighton, England, and, later at Delft University of Technology in the Netherlands on extending the earlier mathematics to include nonlinear convection; while Robert worked at Lomonosov State Univer sity in Moscow under the supervision of Anatolii Kalashnikov on generalizing the earlier mathematics to include nonlinear absorption. We first met at a conference held in Rome in 1985. In 1987 we met again in Madrid at the invitation of Ildefonso Diaz, where we were both staying at 'La Residencia'. As providence would have it, the University 'Complutense' closed down during this visit in response to student demonstra tions, and, we were very much left to our own devices. It was natural that we should gravitate to a research topic of common interest. This turned out to be the characterization of the phenomenon of finite speed of propagation for nonlin ear reaction-convection-diffusion equations. Brian had just completed some work on this topic for nonlinear diffusion-convection, while Robert had earlier done the same for nonlinear diffusion-absorption. There was no question but that we bundle our efforts on the general situation.

Infertility and the Creative Spirit

By: Roxane Head Dinkin,Robert J. Dinkin

Roxane Head Dinkin, PhD, a clinical psychologist practicing in Bradenton, Florida, who has long dealt with the problems of infertile women, and history professor Robert J. Dinkin have created an informative book showcasing seven prominent women who struggled with infertility and became creative powerhouses in a variety of fields. Unable to have children themselves, the Dinkins utilized their combined expertise and discovered how these seven women had worked through their infertility issues and honed their creativity to more fully utilize their talents: - Juliette Low, founder of the Girl Scouts of the USA - Joy Adamson, wildlife conservationist and author of Born Free - Josephine Baker, entertainer and adoptive mother of twelve - Frida Kahlo, innovative artist - Emma Goldman, anarchist and birth-control advocate - Ruth Benedict, leading anthropologist - Marilyn Monroe, film star and sexual icon Infertility produces a profound loss for women who hold the expectation that they will reproduce. Infertility and the Creative Spirit clearly illustrates the connection between the desire and inability to have children and lasting accomplishments in other areas of life, showing how infertile women contribute to the next generation.

The Gradient Discretisation Method

By: Jérôme Droniou,Robert Eymard,Thierry Gallouët,Cindy Guichard,Raphaèle Herbin

This monograph presents the Gradient Discretisation Method (GDM), which is a unified convergence analysis framework for numerical methods for elliptic and parabolic partial differential equations. The results obtained by the GDM cover both stationary and transient models; error estimates are provided for linear (and some non-linear) equations, and convergence is established for a wide range of fully non-linear models (e.g. Leray–Lions equations and degenerate parabolic equations such as the Stefan or Richards models). The GDM applies to a diverse range of methods, both classical (conforming, non-conforming, mixed finite elements, discontinuous Galerkin) and modern (mimetic finite differences, hybrid and mixed finite volume, MPFA-O finite volume), some of which can be built on very general meshes.span style="" ms="" mincho";mso-bidi-font-family:="" the="" core="" properties="" and="" analytical="" tools="" required="" to="" work="" within="" gdm="" are="" stressed,="" it="" is="" shown="" that="" scheme="" convergence="" can="" often="" be="" established="" by="" verifying="" a="" small="" number="" of="" properties.="" scope="" some="" featured="" techniques="" results,="" such="" as="" time-space="" compactness="" theorems="" (discrete="" aubin–simon,="" discontinuous="" ascoli–arzela),="" goes="" beyond="" gdm,="" making="" them="" potentially="" applicable="" numerical="" schemes="" not="" (yet)="" known="" fit="" into="" this="" framework.span style="font-family:" ms="" mincho";mso-bidi-font-family:="" this="" monograph="" is="" intended="" for="" graduate="" students,="" researchers="" and="" experts="" in="" the="" field="" of="" numerical="" analysis="" partial="" differential="" equations./ppiiiiibr/i/i/i/i/i/p
