We prove that the 3-D free-surface incompressible Euler equations with regular initial geometries and velocity fields have solutions which can form a finite-time "splash" (or "splat") singularity first introduced in [9], wherein the…
We review a (constructive) approach first introduced in [6] and further developed in [7, 8, 38, 9] for hydrodynamic limits of asymmetric attractive particle systems, in a weak or in a strong (that is, almost sure) sense, in an homogeneous…
In the framework of the scale relativity theory, the chaotic behavior in time only of a number of macroscopic systems corresponds to motion in a space with geodesics of fractal dimension 2 and leads to its representation by a…
We propose a thermodynamic form of the equation of motion for perfect fluids of grade n which generalizes the one given by J. Serrin in the case of perfectly compressible fluids. First integrals and circulation theorems are deduced and a…
In part I of this paper, I proposed a new set of equations, which I refer to as the M(D,{\eta})-formulation and which differs from the Navier-Stokes-Fourier description of fluid motion. Here, I use these equations to model several classic…
Phase transitions are in the focus of the modeling of multiphase flows. A large number of models is available to describe such processes. We consider several different two phase models that are based on the Euler equations of compressible…
The ideal incompressible fluid in two dimensions (Euler fluid) evolves at relaxation from turbulent states to highly coherent states of flow. For the case of double spatial periodicity and zero total vorticity it is known that the…
We introduce a new wave formulation for the relativistic Euler equations with vacuum boundary conditions that consists of a system of non-linear wave equations in divergence form with a combination of acoustic and Dirichlet boundary…
We study the Euler equations describing the motion of an incompressible fluid on the cubic torus with real initial data. We construct solutions on the Fourier side which display a sudden loss of regularity within finite time even for highly…
To circumvent the ill-posedness issues present in various models of continuum fluid mechanics, we present a dynamical systems approach aiming at selection of physically relevant solutions. Even under the presence of infinitely many…
A classical model for sources and sinks in a two-dimensional perfect incompressible fluid occupying a bounded domain dates back to Yudovich in 1966. In this model, on the one hand, the normal component of the fluid velocity is prescribed on…
One of the basic concepts of modern physics with a long prehistory is a fluid, which means a substance that flows under an applied shear stress. In this sense fluids form a wide subset of the phases of matter that includes liquids, dense…
We propose in this work new systems of equations which we call $p$-Euler equations and $p$-Navier-Stokes equations. $p$-Euler equations are derived as the Euler-Lagrange equations for the action represented by the Benamou-Brenier…
The existence of radial solutions of a nonlinear Dirichlet problem in a ball is translated to the language of Mechanics, i.e. to requirements on the time of motion of a particle in an external potential and under the action of a viscosity…
The Euler equations associated with diffeomorphism groups have received much recent study because of their links with fluid dynamics, computer vision, and mechanics. In this paper, we consider the dynamics of $N$ point particles or `blobs'…
The fundamental "two-fluid" model for describing plasma dynamics is given by the Euler-Maxwell system, in which compressible ion and electron fluids interact with their own self-consistent electromagnetic field. We prove global stability of…
The restriction of hydrodynamics to non-viscous, potential (gradient, irrotational) flows is a theory both simple and elegant; a favorite topic of introductory textbooks. It is known that this theory can be formulated as an action principle…
We consider an incompressible fluid with axial symmetry without swirl, assuming initial data such that the initial vorticity is very concentrated inside $N$ small disjoint rings of thickness $\varepsilon$, each one of vorticity mass and…
A four-parameter kinematic model for the position of a fluid parcel in a time-varying ellipse is introduced. For any ellipse advected by an arbitrary linear two-dimensional flow, the rates of change of the ellipse parameters are uniquely…
'A basic and basically unsolved problem in fluid dynamics is to determine the evolution of rising bubbles and falling drops of one miscible liquid in another' [1]. Here, we address this important literature gap and present the first theory…
