Development of sediment sorting near the large scale nourishment 'The Sand Motor'

The sediment composition of the sea bed is of relevance for various coastal properties such as bed forms, beach slopes and marine ecology. Furthermore it may significantly influence the morphological evolution of the coast. The sediment sorting processes at natural beaches are, however, difficult to distinguish since there can be a both a large...

Mathematical models for particle dissolution in metallic alloys

This paper is a review of a suite of mathematical models of increasing complexity on particle dissolution in metallic alloys. This work deals with models for multi-component particle dissolution in multi-component alloys, where various chemical species diffuse simultaneously, and a two-dimensional model incorporating interfacial reactions as in...

A mathematical model for the dissolution of stoichiometric particles in multi-component alloys

A general model for the dissolution of stoichiometric particles in multi-component alloys is proposed and analysed. We introduce the concept of mass-conserving solutions and give a self-similar solution for the resulting Stefan-problem. Furthermore, we show that particle dissolution in multi-component alloys can under certain circumstances be...
