On axially symmetric flows in .
We first outline the procedure of averaging the incompressible Navier-Stokes equations when the flow is turbulent for various type of filters. We introduce the turbulence model called Bardina’s model, for which we are able to prove existence and uniqueness of a distributional solution. In order to reconstruct some of the flow frequencies that are underestimated by Bardina’s model, we next introduce the approximate deconvolution model (ADM). We prove existence and uniqueness of a “regular weak solution”...
We show compactness of bounded sets of weak solutions to the isentropic compressible Navier-Stokes equations in three space dimensions under the hypothesis that the adiabatic constant .
We consider the full Navier-Stokes-Fourier system of equations on an unbounded domain with prescribed nonvanishing boundary conditions for the density and temperature at infinity. The topic of this article continues author’s previous works on existence of the Navier-Stokes-Fourier system on nonsmooth domains. The procedure deeply relies on the techniques developed by Feireisl and others in the series of works on compressible, viscous and heat conducting fluids.
This is the last from a series of three papers dealing with variational equations of Navier-Stokes type. It is shown that the theoretical results from the preceding parts (existence and regularity of solutions) can be applied to the problem of motion of a fluid through a tube.
The paper present an existence theorem for a strong solution to an abstract evolution inequality where the properties of the operators involved are motivated by a type of modified Navier-Stokes equations under certain unilateral boundary conditions. The method of proof rests upon a Galerkin type argument combined with the regularization of the functional.
The present part of the paper continues the study of the abstract evolution inequality from the first part. Theorem 1 states the existence and uniqueness of a weak solution to the evolution inequality under consideration. The proof is based on the method of approximation of the weak solution by a sequence of strong solutions. Theorem 2 yields two regularity results for the strong solution.
In this paper, we establish the large-data and long-time existence of a suitable weak solution to an initial and boundary value problem driven by a system of partial differential equations consisting of the Navier-Stokes equations with the viscosity polynomially increasing with a scalar quantity that evolves according to an evolutionary convection diffusion equation with the right hand side that is merely -integrable over space and time. We also formulate a conjecture concerning regularity...
We study the local exact controllability problem for the Navier-Stokes equations that describe an incompressible fluid flow in a bounded domain with control distributed in an arbitrary fixed subdomain. The result that we obtain in this paper is as follows. Suppose that we have a given stationary point of the Navier-Stokes equations and our initial condition is sufficiently close to it. Then there exists a locally distributed control such that in a given moment of time the solution of the Navier-Stokes...
We investigate the existence of weak solutions and their smoothness properties for a generalized Stokes problem. The generalization is twofold: the Laplace operator is replaced by a general second order linear elliptic operator in divergence form and the “pressure” gradient is replaced by a linear operator of first order.
Existence of solutions for equations of the nonstationary Stokes system in a bounded domain Ω ⊂ ℝ³ is proved in a class such that velocity belongs to , and pressure belongs to for p > 3. The proof is divided into three steps. First, the existence of solutions with vanishing initial data is proved in a half-space by applying the Marcinkiewicz multiplier theorem. Next, we prove the existence of weak solutions in a bounded domain and then we regularize them. Finally, the problem with nonvanishing...
For a class of random dynamical systems which describe dissipative nonlinear PDEs perturbed by a bounded random kick-force, I propose a “direct proof” of the uniqueness of the stationary measure and exponential convergence of solutions to this measure, by showing that the transfer-operator, acting in the space of probability measures given the Kantorovich metric, defines a contraction of this space.
In this paper the fluid-structure interaction problem is studied on a simplified model of the human vocal fold. The problem is mathematically described and the arbitrary Lagrangian-Eulerian method is applied in order to treat the time dependent computational domain. The viscous incompressible fluid flow and linear elasticity models are considered. The fluid flow and the motion of elastic body is approximated with the aid of finite element method. An attention is paid to the applied stabilization...
