On the Caginalp system with dynamic boundary conditions and singular potentials
summary:This article is devoted to the study of the Caginalp phase field system with dynamic boundary conditions and singular potentials. We first show that, for initial data in , the solutions are strictly separated from the singularities of the potential. This turns out to be our main argument in the proof of the existence and uniqueness of solutions. We then prove the existence of global attractors. In the last part of the article, we adapt well-known results concerning the Łojasiewicz inequality in order to prove the convergence of solutions to steady states
The Cahn-Hilliard Equation with Singular Potentials and Dynamic Boundary Conditions
Our aim in this paper is to study the Cahn-Hilliard equation with singular
potentials and dynamic boundary conditions. In particular, we prove, owing to
proper approximations of the singular potential and a suitable notion of
variational solutions, the existence and uniqueness of solutions. We also
discuss the separation of the solutions from the singularities of the
potential. Finally, we prove the existence of global and exponential
attractors
On the spatial behavior in two-temperature generalized thermoelastic theories
The final publication is available at link.springer.com via https://doi.org/10.1007/s00033-017-0857-xThis paper investigates the spatial behavior of the solutions of two generalized thermoelastic theories with two temperatures. To be more precise, we focus on the Green–Lindsay theory with two temperatures and the Lord–Shulman theory with two temperatures. We prove that a Phragmén–Lindelöf alternative of exponential type can be obtained in both cases. We also describe how to obtain a bound on the amplitude term by means of the boundary conditions for the Green–Lindsay theory with two temperatures.Peer ReviewedPostprint (author's final draft
A singular Cahn--Hilliard--Oono phase-field system with hereditary memory
We consider a phase-field system modeling phase transition phenomena, where the
Cahn--Hilliard--Oono equation for the order parameter is coupled with the Coleman--Gurtin heat law for the temperature.
The former suitably describes both local and nonlocal (long-ranged) interactions in the material undergoing phase-separation, while the latter takes into account thermal memory effects.
We study the well-posedness and longtime behavior of the corresponding dynamical system in the history space setting, for a class of physically
relevant and singular potentials.
Besides, we investigate the regularization properties of the solutions and, for sufficiently smooth data, we establish the strict separation property from the pure phases
Mathematical analysis of a phase-field model of brain cancers with chemotherapy and antiangiogenic therapy effects
Our aim in this paper is to study a mathematical model for brain cancers with chemotherapy and antiangiogenic therapy effects. We prove the existence and uniqueness of biologically relevant (nonnegative) solutions. We then address the important question of optimal treatment. More precisely, we study the problem of finding the controls that provide the optimal cytotoxic and antiangiogenic effects to treat the cancer
Exponential decay in one-dimensional type III thermoelasticity with voids
In this paper we consider the one-dimensional type III thermoelastic theory with voids. We prove that generically we have exponential stability of the solutions. This is a striking fact if one compares it with the behavior in the case of the thermoelastic theory based on the classical Fourier law for which the decayis generically slower.Peer ReviewedPostprint (author's final draft
Attractors for semilinear equations of viscoelasticity with very low dissipation
We analyze a differential system arising in the theory of isothermal viscoelasticity. This system is equivalent to an integrodifferential equation of hyperbolic type with a cubic nonlinearity, where the dissipation mechanism is contained only in the convolution integral, accounting for the past history of the displacement. In particular, we consider here a convolution kernel which entails an extremely weak dissipation. In spite of that, we show that the related dynamical system possesses a global attractor of optimal regularity

Attractors for semilinear equations of viscoelasticity with very low disspation
We analyze a differential system arising in the theory of isothermal
viscoelasticity. This system is equivalent to an integrodifferential equation
of hyperbolic type with a cubic nonlinearity, where the dissipation mechanism

history of the displacement. In particular, we consider here a convolution
kernel which entails an extremely weak dissipation. In spite of that, we show
