We consider a supersonic flow past an airfoil in the context of the steady, isentropic and irrotational compressible Euler equations. We show that for appropriate data, either a shock forms, in which case certain derivatives of the solution…

We study the dynamics of vortices formed in a superfluid film adsorbed on the curved two-dimensional surface of a cone. To this aim, we observe that a cone can be unrolled to a sector on a plane with periodic boundary conditions on the…

We study supersonic flow past a convex corner which is surrounded by quiescent gas. When the pressure of the upstream supersonic flow is larger than that of the quiescent gas, there appears a strong rarefaction wave to rarefy the supersonic…
