A convergence result for an iterative method for the equations of a stationary quasi-newtonian flow with temperature dependent viscosity
We obtain coupled reaction-diffusion equations for the density and temperature of a dense fluid, starting from a discrete model in which at most one particle can be present at each site. The model is constructed by the methods of statistical dynamics. We verify that the theory obeys the first and second laws of thermodynamics. Some remarks on measurement theory for the position of a particle are offered.
A new model is proposed to mimic the response of a class of seemingly viscoplastic materials. Using the proposed model, the steady, fully developed flow of the fluid is studied in a cylindrical pipe. The semi-inverse approach is applied to obtain an analytical solution for the velocity profile. The model is used to fit the shear-stress data of several supposedly viscoplastic materials reported in the literature. A numerical procedure is developed to solve the governing ODE and the procedure is validated...
This paper is dedicated to a regularity criterion for the 2D MHD equations and viscoelastic equations. We prove that if the magnetic field B, respectively the local deformation gradient F, satisfies for 1/p + 1/q = 1 and 2 < p ≤ ∞, then the corresponding local solution can be extended beyond time T.
We consider the Cauchy problem for the 3D density-dependent incompressible flow of liquid crystals with vacuum, and provide a regularity criterion in terms of u and ∇d in the Besov spaces of negative order. This improves a recent result of Fan-Li [Comm. Math. Sci. 12 (2014), 1185-1197].
