Stokeslet and operator extension theory.

I. Y. Popov (1996)

Revista Matemática de la Universidad Complutense de Madrid

Operator version of the Stokeslet method in the theory of creeping flow is suggested. The approach is analogous to the zero-range potential one in quantum mechanics and is based on the theory of self-adjoint operator extensions in the space L2 and in the Pontryagin?s space with an indefinite metric. The problem of Stokes flow in two channels connected through a small opening is considered in the framework of this approach. The case of a periodic system of small openings is studied too. The picture...

Stopping a viscous fluid by a feedback dissipative field: II. The stationary Navier-Stokes problem

Stanislav Nikolaevich Antontsev, Jesús Ildefonso Díaz, Hermenegildo Borges de Oliveira (2004)

Atti della Accademia Nazionale dei Lincei. Classe di Scienze Fisiche, Matematiche e Naturali. Rendiconti Lincei. Matematica e Applicazioni

We consider a planar stationary flow of an incompressible viscous fluid in a semi-infinite strip governed by the Navier-Stokes system with a feed-back body forces field which depends on the velocity field. Since the presence of this type of non-linear terms is not standard in the fluid mechanics literature, we start by establishing some results about existence and uniqueness of weak solutions. Then, we prove how this fluid can be stopped at a finite distance of the semi-infinite strip entrance by...

Strichartz estimates for water waves

Thomas Alazard, Nicolas Burq, Claude Zuily (2011)

Annales scientifiques de l'École Normale Supérieure

In this paper we investigate the dispersive properties of the solutions of the two dimensional water-waves system with surface tension. First we prove Strichartz type estimates with loss of derivatives at the same low level of regularity we were able to construct the solutions in [3]. On the other hand, for smoother initial data, we prove that the solutions enjoy the optimal Strichartz estimates (i.e, without loss of regularity compared to the system linearized at ( η = 0 , ψ = 0 )).

Structural Evolution of the Taylor Vortices

Tian Ma, Shouhong Wang (2010)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis

We classify in this article the structure and its transitions/evolution of the Taylor vortices with perturbations in one of the following categories: a) the Hamiltonian vector fields, b) the divergence-free vector fields, and c). the solutions of the Navier-Stokes equations on the two-dimensional torus. This is part of a project oriented toward to developing a geometric theory of incompressible fluid flows in the physical spaces.

Study of a low Mach nuclear core model for two-phase flows with phase transition I: stiffened gas law

Manuel Bernard, Stéphane Dellacherie, Gloria Faccanoni, Bérénice Grec, Yohan Penel (2014)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis - Modélisation Mathématique et Analyse Numérique

In this paper, we are interested in modelling the flow of the coolant (water) in a nuclear reactor core. To this end, we use a monodimensional low Mach number model supplemented with the stiffened gas law. We take into account potential phase transitions by a single equation of state which describes both pure and mixture phases. In some particular cases, we give analytical steady and/or unsteady solutions which provide qualitative information about the flow. In the second part of the paper, we introduce...

Study of a three component Cahn-Hilliard flow model

Franck Boyer, Céline Lapuerta (2006)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis

In this paper, we propose a new diffuse interface model for the study of three immiscible component incompressible viscous flows. The model is based on the Cahn-Hilliard free energy approach. The originality of our study lies in particular in the choice of the bulk free energy. We show that one must take care of this choice in order for the model to give physically relevant results. More precisely, we give conditions for the model to be well-posed and to satisfy algebraically and dynamically consistency...

Study of Anisotropic MHD system in Anisotropic Sobolev spaces

Jamel Ben Ameur, Ridha Selmi (2008)

Annales de la faculté des sciences de Toulouse Mathématiques

Three-dimensional anisotropic magneto-hydrodynamical system is investigated in the whole space 3 . Existence and uniqueness results are proved in the anisotropic Sobolev space H 0 , s for s > 1 / 2 . Asymptotic behavior of the solution when the Rossby number goes to zero is studied. The proofs, where the incompressibility condition is crucial, use the energy method, an appropriate dyadic decomposition of the frequency space, product laws in anisotropic Sobolev spaces and Strichartz-type estimates.
