One-Layer Free Boundary Problems with Two Free Boundaries

  • Chapter
Elliptic and Parabolic Problems

Part of the book series: Progress in Nonlinear Differential Equations and Their Applications ((PNLDE,volume 63))

Abstract

We study the uniqueness and successive approximation of solutions of a class of two-dimensional steady-state fluid problems involving infinite periodic flows between two periodic free boundaries, each characterized by a flow-speed condition related to Bernoulli’s law.
