Using an interpolant form for the gradient of a function of position, we write an integral version of the conservation equations for a fluid. In the appropriate limit, these become the usual conservation laws of mass, momentum and energy.…
Smooth solutions of the incompressible Euler equations are characterized by the property that circulation around material loops is conserved. This is the Kelvin theorem. Likewise, smooth solutions of Navier-Stokes are characterized by a…
Misiolek has shown that the Camassa-Holm (CH) equation is a geodesic flow on the Bott-Virasoro group. In this paper it is shown that the Camassa-Holm equation for the case $\kappa =0$ is the geodesic spray of the weak Riemannian metric on…
Recently, Holm, Marsden, and Ratiu [1998] have derived a new model for the mean motion of an ideal fluid in Euclidean space given by the equation $\dot{V}(t) + \nabla_{U(t)} V(t) - \alpha^2 [\nabla U(t)]^t \cdot \triangle U(t) =…
In fairly general conditions we give explicit (smooth) solutions for the potential flow. We show that, rigorously speaking, the equations of the fluid mechanics have not rotational solutions. However, within the usual approximations of an…
Dissipative Euler and Navier Stokes equations are discussed with the aim of proposing several experiments apt to test the equivalence of dynamical ensembles and the chaotic hypothesis.

We develop a Bayesian methodology for numerical solution of the incompressible Navier--Stokes equations with quantified uncertainty. The central idea is to treat discretized Navier--Stokes dynamics as a state-space model and to view…
The description of electron-electron interactions in transport problems is both analytically and numerically difficult. Here we show that a much simpler description of electron transport in the presence of interactions can be achieved in…

A few basic, intuitive, properties of the Navier-Stokes system of equations for incompressible fluid flows are discussed in this paper. We present a rephrased interpretation of the Navier-Stokes equation in a space having an arbitrary…
We present the first generalization of Navier-Stokes theory to relativity that satisfies all of the following properties: (a) the system coupled to Einstein's equations is causal and strongly hyperbolic; (b) equilibrium states are stable;…
The study solves the general solution to 2D steady Navier-Stokes equation for incompressible flow without vorticity diffusion, which is more general than Stokes flow. In order to obtain the general solution, two potential functions are…
In the Eulerian approach, the motion of an incompressible fluid is usually described by the velocity field which is given by the Navier--Stokes system. The velocity field generates a flow in the space of volume-preserving diffeomorphisms.…
In this paper, a lower bound estimate on the uniform radius of spatial analyticity is established for solutions to the incompressible, forced Navier-Stokes system on an n-torus. This estimate improves or matches previously known estimates…
For gas flows, the Navier-Stokes (NS) equations are established by mathematically expressing conservations of mass, momentum and energy. The advantage of the NS equations over the Euler equations is that the NS equations have taken into…

We study solutions to the Navier-Stokes equations in the class $L^\infty_t C^\alpha_x$. Landau and Lifshitz [LL87] predicted that the Eulerian and Lagrangian temporal structure functions for turbulence exhibit $1/3$ and $1/2$ scaling laws,…
