In questa nota, si presentano risultati di esistenza e di unicità di misure invarianti per l'equazione di Navier-Stokes che governa il moto di un fluido viscoso incomprimibile omogeneo in un dominio bidimensionale soggetto a una forzante che ha due componenti: una deterministica e una di tipo rumore bianco nella variabile temporale.
Some rigorous results connected with the conventional statistical theory of turbulence in both the two- and three-dimensional cases are discussed. Such results are based on the concept of stationary statistical solution, related to the notion of ensemble average for turbulence in statistical equilibrium, and concern, in particular, the mean kinetic energy and enstrophy fluxes and their corresponding cascades. Some of the results are developed here in the case of nonsmooth boundaries and a less regular...
The instationary Stokes and Navier−Stokes equations are considered in a simultaneously space-time variational saddle point formulation, so involving both velocities u and pressure p. For the instationary Stokes problem, it is shown that the corresponding operator is a boundedly invertible linear mapping between H1 and H'2, both Hilbert spaces H1 and H2 being Cartesian products of (intersections of) Bochner spaces, or duals of those. Based on these results, the operator that corresponds to the Navier−Stokes...
We consider a model coupling the Darcy equations in a porous medium with the Navier-Stokes equations in the cracks, for which the coupling is provided by the pressure's continuity on the interface. We discretize the coupled problem by the spectral element method combined with a nonoverlapping domain decomposition method. We prove the existence of solution for the discrete problem and establish an error estimation. We conclude with some numerical tests confirming the results of our analysis.
We consider the Stokes problem provided with non standard boundary conditions which involve the normal component of the velocity and the tangential components of the vorticity. We write a variational formulation of this problem with three independent unknowns: the vorticity, the velocity and the pressure. Next we propose a discretization by spectral element methods which relies on this formulation. A detailed numerical analysis leads to optimal error estimates for the three unknowns and numerical...

We study a priori global strong solutions of the incompressible Navier-Stokes equations in three space dimensions. We prove that they behave for large times like small solutions, and in particular they decay to zero as time goes to infinity. Using that result, we prove a stability theorem showing that the set of initial data generating global solutions is open.
We consider some abstract nonlinear equations in a separable Hilbert space and some class of approximate equations on closed linear subspaces of . The main result concerns stability with respect to the approximation of the space . We prove that, generically, the set of all solutions of the exact equation is the limit in the sense of the Hausdorff metric over of the sets of approximate solutions, over some filterbase on the family of all closed linear subspaces of . The abstract results are...
We consider numerical approximations of stationary incompressible Navier-Stokes flows in 3D exterior domains, with nonzero velocity at infinity. It is shown that a P1-P1 stabilized finite element method proposed by C. Rebollo: A term by term stabilization algorithm for finite element solution of incompressible flow problems, Numer. Math. 79 (1998), 283–319, is stable when applied to a Navier-Stokes flow in a truncated exterior domain with a pointwise boundary condition on the artificial boundary....
The paper examines the initial value problem for the Navier-Stokes system of viscous incompressible fluids in the three-dimensional space. We prove stability of regular solutions which tend to constant flows sufficiently fast. We show that a perturbation of a regular solution is bounded in for k ∈ ℕ. The result is obtained under the assumption of smallness of the L₂-norm of the perturbing initial data. We do not assume smallness of the -norm of the perturbing initial data or smallness of the...
We prove the linear and non-linear stability of oscillating Ekman boundary layers for rotating fluids in the so-called ill-prepared case under a spectral hypothesis. Here, we deal with the case where the viscosity and the Rossby number are both equal to . This study generalizes the study of [23] where a smallness condition was imposed and the study of [26] where the well-prepared case was treated.
We investigate the asymptotic limit of solutions to the Navier-Stokes-Fourier system with the Mach number proportional to a small parameter , the Froude number proportional to and when the fluid occupies large domain with spatial obstacle of rough surface varying when . The limit velocity field is solenoidal and satisfies the incompressible Oberbeck–Boussinesq approximation. Our studies are based on weak solutions approach and in order to pass to the limit in a convective term we apply the spectral...
Most of the paper deals with the application of the moving plane method to different questions concerning stationary accumulations of isentropic gases. The first part compares the concepts of stationarity arising from the points of view of dynamics and the calculus of variations. Then certain stationary solutions are shown to be unstable. Finally, using the moving plane method, a short proof of the existence of energy-minimizing gas balls is given.
