Geometry of fluid motion

Boris Khesin (2002-2003)

Séminaire Équations aux dérivées partielles

Similarity:

We survey two problems illustrating geometric-topological and Hamiltonian methods in fluid mechanics: energy relaxation of a magnetic field and conservation laws for ideal fluid motion. More details and results, as well as a guide to the literature on these topics can be found in [].

On the L 2 -instability and L 2 -controllability of steady flows of an ideal incompressible fluid

Alexander Shnirelman (1999)

Journées équations aux dérivées partielles

Similarity:

In the existing stability theory of steady flows of an ideal incompressible fluid, formulated by V. Arnold, the stability is understood as a stability with respect to perturbations with small in L 2 vorticity. Nothing has been known about the stability under perturbation with small energy, without any restrictions on vorticity; it was clear that existing methods do not work for this (the most physically reasonable) class of perturbations. We prove that in fact, every nontrivial steady...
