On irrotational flows through cascades of profiles in a layer of variable thickness

Miloslav Feistauer (1984)

Aplikace matematiky

The paper is devoted to the study of solvability of boundary value problems for the stream function, describing non-viscous, irrotional, subsonic flowes through cascades of profiles in a layer of variable thickness. From the definition of a classical solution the variational formulation is derive and the concept of a weak solution is introduced. The proof of the existence and uniqueness of the weak solution is based on the monotone operator theory.

On Large Eddy Simulation and Variational Multiscale Methods in the numerical simulation of turbulent incompressible flows

Volker John (2006)

Applications of Mathematics

Numerical simulation of turbulent flows is one of the great challenges in Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD). In general, Direct Numerical Simulation (DNS) is not feasible due to limited computer resources (performance and memory), and the use of a turbulence model becomes necessary. The paper will discuss several aspects of two approaches of turbulent modeling—Large Eddy Simulation (LES) and Variational Multiscale (VMS) models. Topics which will be addressed are the detailed derivation of these...

On Lipschitz truncations of Sobolev functions (with variable exponent) and their selected applications

Lars Diening, Josef Málek, Mark Steinhauer (2008)

ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations

We study properties of Lipschitz truncations of Sobolev functions with constant and variable exponent. As non-trivial applications we use the Lipschitz truncations to provide a simplified proof of an existence result for incompressible power-law like fluids presented in [Frehse et al., SIAM J. Math. Anal34 (2003) 1064–1083]. We also establish new existence results to a class of incompressible electro-rheological fluids.

On local existence of solutions of the free boundary problem for an incompressible viscous self-gravitating fluid motion

Piotr Mucha, Wojciech Zajączkowski (2000)

Applicationes Mathematicae

The local-in-time existence of solutions of the free boundary problem for an incompressible viscous self-gravitating fluid motion is proved. We show the existence of solutions with lowest possible regularity for this problem such that u W r 2 , 1 ( Ω ˜ T ) with r>3. The existence is proved by the method of successive approximations where the solvability of the Cauchy-Neumann problem for the Stokes system is applied. We have to underline that in the L p -approach the Lagrangian coordinates must be used. We are looking...

On local motion of a compressible barotropic viscous fluid bounded by a free surface

W. Zajączkowski (1992)

Banach Center Publications

We consider the motion of a viscous compressible barotropic fluid in ℝ³ bounded by a free surface which is under constant exterior pressure, both with surface tension and without it. In the first case we prove local existence of solutions in anisotropic Hilbert spaces with noninteger derivatives. In the case without surface tension the anisotropic Sobolev spaces with integration exponent p > 3 are used to omit the coefficients which are increasing functions of 1/T, where T is the existence time....

On local-in-time existence for the Dirichlet problem for equations of compressible viscous fluids

Piotr Boguslaw Mucha, Wojciech Zajączkowski (2002)

Annales Polonici Mathematici

The local existence of solutions for the compressible Navier-Stokes equations with the Dirichlet boundary conditions in the L p -framework is proved. Next an almost-global-in-time existence of small solutions is shown. The considerations are made in Lagrangian coordinates. The result is sharp in the L p -approach, because the velocity belongs to W r 2 , 1 with r > 3.
