โฆ Synopsis
We study a set of nonlinear di usion equations describing the evolution of densely packed particles under gravity subject to random vibrations. Although the thermodynamics of the model predicts no phase separation at all, the dynamics displays both normal and reverse segregation depending on the mass of the species present in the system.

New measures of segregation are defined and calculated for the A + B+O reaction on one-dimensional and fractal lattices (Sierpinski carpet and gasket). We differentiate between local and global segregation parameters. Results and comparisons are given for steady-state simulations that strictly conse

A numerical method is proposed to approximate the solution of a nonlinear and nonlocal system of integro-differential equations describing age-dependent population dynamics with spatial diffusion. We use a finite difference method along the characteristic age-time direction combined with finite elem
The optimal error estimate O(h k+l) for a popular nonlinear diffusion model widely used in image processing is proved for the standard kth-order (k 1 1) conforming tensor-product finite elements in the L2-norm. The optimal L2-estimate is obtained by the integral identity technique [l-3] without usin
