Some implementations of projection methods for Navier-Stokes equations
Some inverse and control problems for fluids
This paper deals with some inverse and control problems for the Navier-Stokes and related systems. We will focus on some particular aspects that have recently led to interesting (theoretical and numerical) results: geometric inverse problems, Eulerian and Lagrangian controllability and vortex reduction oriented to shape optimization.

Some new regularity criteria for the Navier-Stokes equations containing gradient of the velocity
We study the nonstationary Navier-Stokes equations in the entire three-dimensional space and give some criteria on certain components of gradient of the velocity which ensure its global-in-time smoothness.

Some recent results on the Muskat problem
We consider the dynamics of an interface given by two incompressible fluids with different characteristics evolving by Darcy’s law. This scenario is known as the Muskat problem, being in 2D mathematically analogous to the two-phase Hele-Shaw cell. The purpose of this paper is to outline recent results on local existence, weak solutions, maximum principles and global existence.
Some remarks on Prandtl system
The purpose of this paper is to correct some drawbacks in the proof of the well-known Boundary Layer Theory in Oleinik’s book. The Prandtl system for a nonstationary layer arising in an axially symmetric incopressible flow past a solid body is analyzed.
Some Remarks on the Boundary Conditions in the Theory of Navier-Stokes Equations
This article addresses some theoretical questions related to the choice of boundary conditions, which are essential for modelling and numerical computing in mathematical fluids mechanics. Unlike the standard choice of the well known non slip boundary conditions, we emphasize three selected sets of slip conditions, and particularly stress on the interaction between the appropriate functional setting and the status of these conditions.

Some results on invariant measures in hydrodynamics
In questa nota, si presentano risultati di esistenza e di unicità di misure invarianti per l'equazione di Navier-Stokes che governa il moto di un fluido viscoso incomprimibile omogeneo in un dominio bidimensionale soggetto a una forzante che ha due componenti: una deterministica e una di tipo rumore bianco nella variabile temporale.
Some results on the Navier-Stokes equations in connection with the statistical theory of stationary turbulence
Some rigorous results connected with the conventional statistical theory of turbulence in both the two- and three-dimensional cases are discussed. Such results are based on the concept of stationary statistical solution, related to the notion of ensemble average for turbulence in statistical equilibrium, and concern, in particular, the mean kinetic energy and enstrophy fluxes and their corresponding cascades. Some of the results are developed here in the case of nonsmooth boundaries and a less regular...
Space-time variational saddle point formulations of Stokes and Navier–Stokes equations
The instationary Stokes and Navier−Stokes equations are considered in a simultaneously space-time variational saddle point formulation, so involving both velocities u and pressure p. For the instationary Stokes problem, it is shown that the corresponding operator is a boundedly invertible linear mapping between H1 and H'2, both Hilbert spaces H1 and H2 being Cartesian products of (intersections of) Bochner spaces, or duals of those. Based on these results, the operator that corresponds to the Navier−Stokes...

Special finite-difference approximations of flow equations in terms of stream function, vorticity and velocity components for viscous incompressible liquid in curvilinear orthogonal coordinates
The Navier-Stokes equations written in general orthogonal curvilinear coordinates are reformulated with the use of the stream function, vorticity and velocity components. The resulting system id discretized on general irregular meshes and special monotone finite-difference schemes are derived.

Spectral element discretization of the vorticity, velocity and pressure formulation of the Stokes problem
We consider the Stokes problem provided with non standard boundary conditions which involve the normal component of the velocity and the tangential components of the vorticity. We write a variational formulation of this problem with three independent unknowns: the vorticity, the velocity and the pressure. Next we propose a discretization by spectral element methods which relies on this formulation. A detailed numerical analysis leads to optimal error estimates for the three unknowns and numerical...
