On the Instantaneous Spreading for the Navier–Stokes System in the Whole Space

Lorenzo Brandolese, Yves Meyer (2010)

ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations

We consider the spatial behavior of the velocity field u(x, t) of a fluid filling the whole space n ( n 2 ) for arbitrarily small values of the time variable. We improve previous results on the spatial spreading by deducing the necessary conditions u h ( x , t ) u k ( x , t ) d x = c ( t ) δ h , k under more general assumptions on the localization of u. We also give some new examples of solutions which have a stronger spatial localization than in the generic case.

On the Ladyzhenskaya-Smagorinsky turbulence model of the Navier-Stokes equations in smooth domains. The regularity problem

Hugo Beirão da Veiga (2009)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

We establish regularity results up to the boundary for solutions to generalized Stokes and Navier–Stokes systems of equations in the stationary and evolutive cases. Generalized here means the presence of a shear dependent viscosity. We treat the case p 2 . Actually, we are interested in proving regularity results in L q ( Ω ) spaces for all the second order derivatives of the velocity and all the first order derivatives of the pressure. The main aim of the present paper is to extend our previous scheme, introduced...

On the local strong solutions for a system describing the flow of a viscoelastic fluid

Ondřej Kreml, Milan Pokorný (2009)

Banach Center Publications

We consider a model for the viscoelastic fluid which has recently been studied in [4] and [1]. We show the local-in-time existence of a strong solution to the corresponding system of partial differential equations under less regularity assumptions on the initial data than in the above mentioned papers. The main difference in our approach is the use of the L p theory for the Stokes system.

On the motion of rigid bodies in a viscous fluid

Eduard Feireisl (2002)

Applications of Mathematics

We consider the problem of motion of several rigid bodies in a viscous fluid. Both compressible and incompressible fluids are studied. In both cases, the existence of globally defined weak solutions is established regardless possible collisions of two or more rigid objects.

On the Navier-Stokes equations with anisotropic wall slip conditions

Christiaan Le Roux (2023)

Applications of Mathematics

This article deals with the solvability of the boundary-value problem for the Navier-Stokes equations with a direction-dependent Navier type slip boundary condition in a bounded domain. Such problems arise when steady flows of fluids in domains with rough boundaries are approximated as flows in domains with smooth boundaries. It is proved by means of the Galerkin method that the boundary-value problem has a unique weak solution when the body force and the variability of the surface friction are...

On the structure of flows through pipe-like domains satisfying a geometrical constraint

Piotr Bogusław Mucha (2004)

Applicationes Mathematicae

We study solutions of the steady Navier-Stokes equations in a bounded 2D domain with the slip boundary conditions admitting flow across the boundary. We show conditions guaranteeing uniqueness of the solution. Next, we examine the structure of the solution considering an approximation given by a natural linearization. Suitable error estimates are also obtained.

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 to the equations of non-stationary motion of heat-conducting incompressible viscous fluids: defect measure and energy equality

Joachim Naumann (2008)

Banach Center Publications

We consider the non-stationary Navier-Stokes equations completed by the equation of conservation of internal energy. The viscosity of the fluid is assumed to depend on the temperature, and the dissipation term is the only heat source in the conservation of internal energy. For the system of PDE's under consideration, we prove the existence of a weak solution such that: 1) the weak form of the conservation of internal energy involves a defect measure, and 2) the equality for the total energy is satisfied....

Planar flows of incompressible heat-conducting shear-thinning fluids — existence analysis

Miroslav Bulíček, Oldřich Ulrych (2011)

Applications of Mathematics

We study the flow of an incompressible homogeneous fluid whose material coefficients depend on the temperature and the shear-rate. For large class of models we establish the existence of a suitable weak solution for two-dimensional flows of fluid in a bounded domain. The proof relies on the reconstruction of the globally integrable pressure, available due to considered Navier’s slip boundary conditions, and on the so-called L -truncation method, used to obtain the strong convergence of the velocity...

Point fixe d'une application non contractante.

Pierre Gilles Lemarié-Rieusset (2006)

Revista Matemática Iberoamericana

We study a multilinear fixed-point equation in a closed ball of a Banach space where the application is 1-Lipschitzian: existence, uniqueness, approximations, regularity.
