Abstract:
The following system is a mathematical model for the first stage of brewing Japanese Sake. It's configured by differential equations (with initial conditions, boundary conditions), and a constraint condition. This model is studied by A. Ito and Y. M. \[ \left\{ \begin{array}{ll} \theta_t-d_0 \Delta \theta+g_0(\theta,u_1,u_2)=f_0&\mbox{a.e. in } Q\vspace{0.1cm}\ (u_1)_t-d_1 \Delta u_1 +g_1(\theta,u_1,u_2)=f_1&\mbox{a.e. in } Q\vspace{0.1cm}\ (u_2)_t-d_2 \Delta u_2 +g_2(\theta,u_1,u_2)=f_2&\mbox{a.e. in } Q\vspace{0.1cm}\ (u_1,u_2)\in K(\theta)&\mbox{a.e. in } Q\vspace{0.1cm}\ (v)_t-d_3 \Delta v =-c_3vu_1+f_3&\mbox{a.e. in } Q\vspace{0.1cm}\ (w)_t-d_4 \Delta w =c_6vu_1-(c_7u_1+c_8u_2)w+f_4&\mbox{a.e. in } Q\vspace{0.1cm}\ \frac{\partial \theta}{\partial \mathbf{n}} +c_9 \theta =h &\mbox{a.e. on }\Sigma \vspace{0.1cm}\ \frac{\partial u_1}{\partial \mathbf{n}}=\frac{\partial u_2}{\partial \mathbf{n}}=\frac{\partial v}{\partial \mathbf{n}}=\frac{\partial w}{\partial \mathbf{n}}=0 &\mbox{a.e. on } \Sigma\vspace{0.1cm}\ \theta(0)=\theta_0,\ \ \ \ u_1(0)=u_{1,0},\ \ \ \ u_2(0)=u_{2,0}&\vspace{0.1cm}\ v(0)=v_0,\ \ \ \ w(0)=w_0&\mbox{a.e. on } \Omega \end{array} \right.\vspace{0.1cm} \] The constraint condition is one of the characteristic point of our model. We can see that equations for $u_1,u_2$ and the constraint condition configure "Quasi-variational inequality". In my talk, we discuss existence of weak solutions for our model, and some numerical simulations are presented.
