An analysis of the error of the upwind scheme for transport equation with discontinuous coefficients is provided. We consider here a velocity field that is bounded and one-sided Lipschitz continuous. In this framework, solutions are defined in the sense of measures along the lines of Poupaud and Rascle's work. We study the convergence order of...

The Lifschitz–Slyozov system describes the dynamics of mass exchanges between macro–particles and monomers in the theory of coarsening. We consider a variant of the classical model where monomers are subject to space diffusion. We establish the existence–uniqueness of solutions for a wide class of relevant data and kinetic coefficients. We also...

The aggregation equation is a nonlocal and nonlinear conservation law commonly used to describe the collective motion of individuals interacting together. When interacting potentials are pointy, it is now well established that solutions may blow up in finite time but global in time weak measure valued solutions exist. In this paper we focus on...

We propose in this article a model describing the dynamic of a system of adipocytes, struc-tured by their sizes. This model takes into account the differentiation of a population of mesenchymal cells into preadipocytes and of preadipocytes into adipocytes; the differentiation rates depend on the mean adipocyte radius. The considered equations...

In this paper we write, analyze and experimentally compare three different numerical schemes dedicated to the one dimensional barotropic Navier-Stokes equations: • a staggered scheme based on the Rusanov one for the inviscid (Euler) system, • a staggered pseudo-Lagrangian scheme in which the mesh "follows" the fluid, • the Eulerian projection...
