On the variational inequality approach to compressible flows via hodograph method.

Lisa Santos (1993)

Revista Matemática de la Universidad Complutense de Madrid

We study the flow of a compressible, stationary and irrotational fluid with wake, in a channel, around a convex symmetric profile, with assigned velocity q-infinity at infinity and q-s < q-infinity at the wake. In particular, we study the regularity of the free boundary (for a problem which has non-constant coefficients), in the hodograph plane.

On the well-balance property of Roe’s method for nonconservative hyperbolic systems. Applications to shallow-water systems

Carlos Parés, Manuel Castro (2004)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis - Modélisation Mathématique et Analyse Numérique

This paper is concerned with the numerical approximations of Cauchy problems for one-dimensional nonconservative hyperbolic systems. The first goal is to introduce a general concept of well-balancing for numerical schemes solving this kind of systems. Once this concept stated, we investigate the well-balance properties of numerical schemes based on the generalized Roe linearizations introduced by [Toumi, J. Comp. Phys. 102 (1992) 360–373]. Next, this general theory is applied to obtain well-balanced...

On uniqueness for bounded channel flows of viscoelastic fluids

Marshall J. Leitman, Epifanio G. Virga (1988)

Atti della Accademia Nazionale dei Lincei. Classe di Scienze Fisiche, Matematiche e Naturali. Rendiconti Lincei. Matematica e Applicazioni

It was conjectured in [1] that there is at most one bounded channel flow for a viscoelastic fluid whose stress relaxation function G is positive, integrable, and strictly convex. In this paper we prove the uniqueness of bounded channel flows, assuming G to be non-negative, integrable, and convex, but different from a very specific piecewise linear function. Furthermore, whenever these hypotheses apply, the unbounded channel flows, if any, must grow in time faster than any polynomial.

On various types of viscous two-fluid flows

Jürgen Socolowsky (2008)

Banach Center Publications

Viscous two-fluid flows arise in different kinds of coating technologies. Frequently, the corresponding mathematical models represent two-dimensional free boundary value problems for the Navier-Stokes equations or their modifications. In this review article we present some results about nonisothermal stationary as well as about isothermal evolutionary viscous flow problems. The temperature-depending problems are characterized by coupled heat- and mass transfer and also by thermocapillary convection....

On weak solutions of steady Navier-Stokes equations for monatomic gas

Jan Březina, Antonín Novotný (2008)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

We use L estimates for the inverse Laplacian of the pressure introduced by Plotnikov, Sokolowski and Frehse, Goj, Steinhauer together with the nonlinear potential theory due to Adams, Hedberg, to get a priori estimates and to prove existence of weak solutions to steady isentropic Navier-Stokes equations with the adiabatic constant γ > 1 3 ( 1 + 13 ) 1 . 53 for the flows powered by volume non-potential forces and with γ > 1 8 ( 3 + 41 ) 1 . 175 for the flows powered by potential forces and arbitrary non-volume forces. According to our knowledge,...
