The far-field modelling of transonic compressible flows

C. A. Coclici, Ivan L. Sofronov, Wolfgang L. Wendland (2001)

Mathematica Bohemica

We present a method for the construction of artificial far-field boundary conditions for two- and three-dimensional exterior compressible viscous flows in aerodynamics. Since at some distance to the surrounded body (e.g. aeroplane, wing section, etc.) the convective forces are strongly dominant over the viscous ones, the viscosity effects are neglected there and the flow is assumed to be inviscid. Accordingly, we consider two different model zones leading to a decomposition of the original flow...

The FBI transform, operators with nonsmooth coefficients and the nonlinear wave equation

Daniel Tataru (1999)

Journées équations aux dérivées partielles

The aim of this work is threefold. First we set up a calculus for partial differential operators with nonsmooth coefficients which is based on the FBI (Fourier-Bros-Iagolnitzer) transform. Then, using this calculus, we prove a weaker version of the Strichartz estimates for second order hyperbolic equations with nonsmooth coefficients. Finally, we apply these new Strichartz estimates to second order nonlinear hyperbolic equations and improve the local theory, i.e. prove local well-posedness for initial...
