  Mathematical Models and Methods in Applied Sciences, World Scientific Publishing, 2012, 22 (8), pp.52. We propose a relaxation framework for general fluid models which can be understood as a natural ex- tension of the Suliciu approach in the Euler setting. In particular, the relaxation system may be totally degenerate. Several stability properties are proved. The relaxation procedure is shown to be efficient in the numerical approximation of the entropy weak solutions of the original PDEs. The numerical method is particularly simple in the case of a fully degenerate relaxation system for which the solution of the Riemann problem is explicit. Indeed, the Godunov solver for the homogeneous relaxation system results in an HLLC-type solver for the equilibirum model. Discrete entropy inequalities are established under a natural Gibbs principle. (10.1142/S0218202512500145)

• Existence and uniqueness of traveling waves for fully overdamped Frenkel-Kontorova models

  , 2012. In this article, we study the existence and the uniqueness of traveling waves for a discrete reaction-diffusion equation with bistable non-linearity, namely a generalization of the fully overdamped Frenkel-Kontorova model. This model consists in a system of ODE's which describes the dynamics of crystal defects in a lattice solids. Under very poor assumptions, we prove the existence of a traveling wave solution and the uniqueness of the velocity of propagation of this traveling wave. The question of the uniqueness of the profile is also studied by proving Strong Maximum Principle or some weak asymptotics on the profile at infinity.

• Stochastic modeling of density-dependent diploid populations and extinction vortex
  
  • Coron Camille
  , 2012. We model and study the genetic evolution and conservation of a population of diploid hermaphroditic organisms, evolving continuously in time and subject to resource competition. In the absence of mutations, the population follows a 3-type nonlinear birth-and-death process, in which birth rates are designed to integrate Mendelian reproduction. We are interested in the long term genetic behaviour of the population (adaptive dynamics), and in particular we compute the fixation probability of a slightly non-neutral allele in the absence of mutations, which involves finding the unique sub-polynomial solution of a nonlinear 3-dimensional recurrence relationship. This equation is simplified to a 1-order relationship which is proved to admit exactly one bounded solution. Adding rare mutations and rescaling time, we study the successive mutation fixations in the population, which are given by the jumps of a limiting Markov process on the genotypes space. At this time scale, we prove that the fixation rate of deleterious mutations increases with the number of already fixed mutations, which creates a vicious circle called the extinction vortex.

  , 2012. In this paper we investigate the Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman (HJB) approach for solving a complex real-world optimal control problem in high dimension. We consider the climbing problem for the European launcher Ariane V: The launcher has to reach the Geostationary Transfer Orbit with minimal propellant consumption under state/control constraints. In order to circumvent the well-known curse of dimensionality, we reduce the number of variables in the model exploiting the specific features concerning the dynamics of the mass. This generates a non-standard optimal control problem formulation. We show that the joint employment of the most advanced mathematical techniques for the numerical solution of HJB equations allows one to achieve practicable results in reasonable time.
