A model for the dynamical evolution of a granular binary mixture is analyzed. This system is submitted to a tapping procedure, similarly to what is done in real experiments. In the weak vibration limit, an effective dynamics for the tapping…

The basis for a hydrodynamic description of granular gases is discussed for a low density gas of smooth, inelastic hard spheres. The more fundamental mesoscopic description is taken to be the nonlinear Boltzmann kinetic equation. Two…

In this paper, we are first interested in the compressible Navier-Stokes equations with densitydependent viscosities in bounded domains with on-homogeneous Dirichlet conditions. We study the wellposedness of such models with non-constant…
We consider the motion of an incompressible viscous fluid on a compact Riemannian manifold $\sM$ with boundary. The motion on $\sM$ is modeled by the incompressible Navier-Stokes equations, and the fluid is subject to pure or partial slip…
We show that in bounded domains with no-slip boundary conditions, the Navier-Stokes pressure can be determined in a such way that it is strictly dominated by viscosity. As a consequence, in a general domain we can treat the Navier-Stokes…
In this work, we investigate the small-time global exact controllability of the Navier-Stokes equation, both towards the null equilibrium state and towards weak trajectories. We consider a viscous incompressible fluid evolving within a…
