ON THE CONVERGENCE OF THE PARABOLIC APPROXIMATION OF A CONSERVATION LAW IN SEVERAL SPACE DIMENSIONS

The authors give a proof of the convergence of the solution of the parabolic approximation towards the entropic solution of the scalar conservation law div f(x, t, u) = 0 in several space dimensions. For any initial condition uo (RN) and for alarge class of flux f, they also prove the strong converge in any space, using the notion ofentropy process solution, which is a generalization of the measure-valued solutions of Diperna.

From parabolic approximation to evanescent mode analysis on SOI MOSFET

Subthreshold conduction is governed by the potential distribution. We focus on full two-dimensional（2D） analytical modeling in order to evaluate the 2D potential profile within the active area of Fin FET structure.Surfaces and interfaces, which are key nanowire elements, are carefully studied. Different structures have different boundary conditions, and therefore different effects on the potential distributions. A range of models in Fin FET are reviewed in this paper. Parabolic approximation and evanescent mode are two different basic math methods to simplify the Poisson＇s equation. Both superposition method and parabolic approximation are widely used in heavily doped devices. It is helpful to learn performances of MOSFETs with different structures. These two methods achieved improvement to face different structures from heavily doped devices or lightly doped devices to junctionless transistors.

DISCRETE APPROXIMATIONS FOR SINGULARLY PERTURBED BOUNDARY VALUE PROBLEMS WITH PARABOLIC LAYERS,Ⅱ

In his series of three papers we study singularly perturbed (SP) boundary valueproblems for equations of elliptic and parabolic type. For small values of the pertur-bation parameter parabolic boundary and interior layers appear in these problems.If classical discretisation methods are used, the solution of the finite differencescheme and the approximation of the diffusive flux do not converge uniformly withrespect to this parameter. Using the method of special, adapted grids, we canconstruct difference schemes that allow approximation of the solution and the nor-malised diffusive flux uniformly with respect to the small parameter.We also consider sillgularly perturbed boundary value problems for convection-diffusion equations. Also for these problems we construct special finite differenceschemes, the solution of which converges ε-uniformly We study what problems ap-pear, when classical schemes are used for the approximation of the spatial deriva-tives. We compare the results with those obtained by the adapted approach. Re-sults of numerical experiments are discussed.In the three papers we first give an introduction on the general problem, andthen we consider respectively (i) Problems for SP parabolic equations, for whichthe solution and the normalised diffusive fluxes are required; (ii) Problems for SPelliptic equations with boundary conditions of Diriclilet, Neumann and RDbin type;(iii) Problems for SP parabolic equation with discontinuous boundary conditions-
