L2 Decay for the Navier-Stokes Flow in Halfspaces.
Lagrangian approximations and weak solutions of the Navier-Stokes equations
The motion of a viscous incompressible fluid flow in bounded domains with a smooth boundary can be described by the nonlinear Navier-Stokes equations. This description corresponds to the so-called Eulerian approach. We develop a new approximation method for the Navier-Stokes equations in both the stationary and the non-stationary case by a suitable coupling of the Eulerian and the Lagrangian representation of the flow, where the latter is defined by the trajectories of the particles of the fluid....

Limiting behavior for an iterated viscosity
Limiting Behavior for an Iterated Viscosity
The behavior of an ordinary differential equation for the low wave number velocity mode is analyzed. This equation was derived in [5] by an iterative process on the two-dimensional Navier-Stokes equations (NSE). It resembles the NSE in form, except that the kinematic viscosity is replaced by an iterated viscosity which is a partial sum, dependent on the low-mode velocity. The convergence of this sum as the number of iterations is taken to be arbitrarily large is explored. This leads to a limiting...
Linear flow problems in 2D exterior domains for 2D incompressible fluid flows
The paper analyzes the issue of existence of solutions to linear problems in two dimensional exterior domains, linearizations of the Navier-Stokes equations. The systems are studied with a slip boundary condition. The main results prove the existence of distributional solutions for arbitrary data.
Linearization and normal form of the Navier-Stokes equations with potential forces
Linear-quadratic optimal control for the Oseen equations with stabilized finite elements
For robust discretizations of the Navier-Stokes equations with small viscosity, standard Galerkin schemes have to be augmented by stabilization terms due to the indefinite convective terms and due to a possible lost of a discrete inf-sup condition. For optimal control problems for fluids such stabilization have in general an undesired effect in the sense that optimization and discretization do not commute. This is the case for the combination of streamline upwind Petrov-Galerkin (SUPG) and pressure...

Local free boundary problem for incompressible magnetohydrodynamics [Book]
Local null controllability of a fluid-solid interaction problem in dimension 3
We are interested by the three-dimensional coupling between an incompressible fluid and a rigid body. The fluid is modeled by the Navier-Stokes equations, while the solid satisfies the Newton's laws. In the main result of the paper we prove that, with the help of a distributed control, we can drive the fluid and structure velocities to zero and the solid to a reference position provided that the initial velocities are small enough and the initial position of the structure is close to the reference...

Local solutions for stochastic Navier Stokes equations
Local Solutions for Stochastic Navier Stokes Equations
In this article we consider local solutions for stochastic Navier Stokes equations, based on the approach of Von Wahl, for the deterministic case. We present several approaches of the concept, depending on the smoothness available. When smoothness is available, we can in someway reduce the stochastic equation to a deterministic one with a random parameter. In the general case, we mimic the concept of local solution for stochastic differential equations.
Long time estimate of solutions to 3d Navier-Stokes equations coupled with heat convection
We examine the Navier-Stokes equations with homogeneous slip boundary conditions coupled with the heat equation with homogeneous Neumann conditions in a bounded domain in ℝ³. The domain is a cylinder along the x₃ axis. The aim of this paper is to show long time estimates without assuming smallness of the initial velocity, the initial temperature and the external force. To prove the estimate we need however smallness of the L₂ norms of the x₃-derivatives of these three quantities.
Long time existence of regular solutions to 3d Navier-Stokes equations coupled with heat convection
We prove long time existence of regular solutions to the Navier-Stokes equations coupled with the heat equation. We consider the system in a non-axially symmetric cylinder, with the slip boundary conditions for the Navier-Stokes equations, and the Neumann condition for the heat equation. The long time existence is possible because the derivatives, with respect to the variable along the axis of the cylinder, of the initial velocity, initial temperature and external force are assumed to be sufficiently...
Long time existence of regular solutions to Navier-Stokes equations in cylindrical domains under boundary slip conditions
Long time existence of solutions to the Navier-Stokes equations in cylindrical domains under boundary slip conditions is proved. Moreover, the existence of solutions with no restrictions on the magnitude of the initial velocity and the external force is shown. However, we have to assume that the quantity is sufficiently small, where x₃ is the coordinate along the axis parallel to the cylinder. The time of existence is inversely proportional to I. Existence of solutions is proved by the Leray-Schauder...
Long time existence of solutions to 2d Navier-Stokes equations with heat convection
Global existence of regular solutions to the Navier-Stokes equations for (v,p) coupled with the heat convection equation for θ is proved in the two-dimensional case in a bounded domain. We assume the slip boundary conditions for velocity and the Neumann condition for temperature. First an appropriate estimate is shown and next the existence is proved by the Leray-Schauder fixed point theorem. We prove the existence of solutions such that , , s>2.
