Impact of the variations of the mixing length in a first order turbulent closure system

Françoise Brossier, Roger Lewandowski (2010)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis

This paper is devoted to the study of a turbulent circulation model. Equations are derived from the “Navier-Stokes turbulent kinetic energy” system. Some simplifications are performed but attention is focused on non linearities linked to turbulent eddy viscosity  ν t . The mixing length ℓ acts as a parameter which controls the turbulent part in ν t . The main theoretical results that we have obtained concern the uniqueness of the solution for bounded eddy viscosities and small values of ℓ and its asymptotic...

Including eigenvalues of the plane Orr-Sommerfeld problem

Peter P. Klein (1993)

Applications of Mathematics

In an earlier paper [5] a method for eigenvalue inclussion using a Gerschgorin type theory originating from Donnelly [2] was applied to the plane Orr-Sommerfeld problem in the case of a pure Poiseuile flow. In this paper the same method will be used to deal Poiseuile and Couette flow. Potter [6] has treated this case before with an approximative method.

Inégalités de Carleman globales pour les problèmes elliptiques non homogènes

Jean-Pierre Puel (2002/2003)

Séminaire Équations aux dérivées partielles

On établit ici, suivant [5], une inégalité de Carleman globale optimale pour les solutions faibles (au sens H 1 ) d’équations elliptiques générales avec second membre dans H - 1 et trace non nulle.La motivation, qui est expliquée dans l’introduction, réside dans l’obtention d’inégalités de Carleman globale pour l’opérateur de Navier-Stokes linéarisé afin, notamment, d’étudier les questions de contrôlabilité exacte sur les trajectoires pour les équations de Navier-Stokes. Une étape majeure consiste à obtenir...

Influence of bottom topography on long water waves

Florent Chazel (2007)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis

We focus here on the water waves problem for uneven bottoms in the long-wave regime, on an unbounded two or three-dimensional domain. In order to derive asymptotic models for this problem, we consider two different regimes of bottom topography, one for small variations in amplitude, and one for strong variations. Starting from the Zakharov formulation of this problem, we rigorously compute the asymptotic expansion of the involved Dirichlet-Neumann operator. Then, following the global strategy...

Influence of the spray retroaction on the airflow*

L. Boudin, C. Grandmont, B. Grec, D. Yakoubi (2010)

ESAIM: Proceedings

In this work, we investigate the influence of a spray evolving in the air, in the respiration framework. We consider two kinds of situations: a moving spray in a motionless fluid, and motionless particles in a Poiseuille flow. We observe that the spray retroaction may not be neglected in some situations which can really happen, for instance, when one considers rather big particles, as it is possible for polluting particles and even for some therapeutic...

Influence of Vibrations on Convective Instability of Reaction Fronts in Liquids

K. Allali, F. Bikany, A. Taik, V. Volpert (2010)

Mathematical Modelling of Natural Phenomena

Propagation of polymerization fronts with liquid monomer and liquid polymer is considered and the influence of vibrations on critical conditions of convective instability is studied. The model includes the heat equation, the equation for the concentration and the Navier-Stokes equations considered under the Boussinesq approximation. Linear stability analysis of the problem is fulfilled, and the convective instability boundary is found depending on...

Influence of Vibrations on Convective Instability of Reaction Fronts in Porous Media

H. Aatif, K. Allali, K. El Karouni (2010)

Mathematical Modelling of Natural Phenomena

The aim of this paper is to study the effect of vibrations on convective instability of reaction fronts in porous media. The model contains reaction-diffusion equations coupled with the Darcy equation. Linear stability analysis is carried out and the convective instability boundary is found. The results are compared with direct numerical simulations.
