Detailed knowledge about the function and morphology of temporomandibular joint are necessary for clinical applications and for analyses of the function of temporomandibular joint prosthesis. Movements of temporomandibular joint are biomechanically sophisticated and are up-to-date not clear....

When we construct continuous and/or discrete mathematical models in order to describe a real-life problem, these models should have various qualitative properties, which typically arise from some basic principles of the modelled phenomena. In this paper we investigate this question for the...

Continual induction hardening is a modern technological process whose mathematical model is given by two generally nonlinear partial differential equations (PDEs) describing electromagnetic and temperature fields characterized by time-variable boundary conditions. The authors propose an...

We present an analytical model of Stokes creeping flows in rectangular cavities. In the model, the fluid normal velocity at the wall is zero, while the fluid tangential velocity at the wall differs from the wall velocity. Numerical work is used to validate some of the ideas generated from this...

Some aspects of goal-oriented a posteriori error estimation are addressed in the context of steady convection–diffusion equations. The difference between the exact and approximate values of a linear target functional is expressed in terms of integrals that depend on the solutions to the primal...
