It is well-known that classical linear elasticity equations are not form-invariant under local transformations. This is intrinsically related to the inhomogeneity of elastic media. However, the reported new linear elasticity equations for…
We investigate the large-time behavior of solutions to an outflow problem of the full compressible Navier-Stokes equations in the half line. The non-degenerate stationary solution is shown to be asymptotically stable under large initial…

In this paper, we generalize the main results of [1] and [31] to Lorentz spaces, using a simple procedure. The main results are the following. Let $n\geq 3$ and let $u$ be a Leray-Hopf solution to the $n$-dimensional Navier-Stokes equations…
We study the Lipschitz stability in time for $\alpha$-dissipative solutions to the Hunter-Saxton equation, where $\alpha \in [0,1]$ is a constant. We define metrics in both Lagrangian and Eulerian coordinates, and establish Lipschitz…
The optimal (Monge-Kantorovich) transportation problem is discussed from several points of view. The Lagrangian formulation extends the action of the {\em Lagrangian} $L(v,x,t)$ from the set of orbits in $\R^n$ to a set of measure-valued…
The present paper is concerned with large-time behavior of solutions to an outflow problem for an ideal polytropic model of compressible viscous gases in one-dimensional half space, and with a convergence rate of solutions toward a…
We study the Rayleigh-Taylor problem for two incompressible, immiscible, viscous magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) flows, with zero resistivity, surface tension (or without surface tenstion) and special initial magnetic field, evolving with a free…
The steady motion of a viscous incompressible fluid in distorted pipes, of finite length, is modeled through the Navier-Stokes equations with mixed boundary conditions: the inflow is given by an arbitrary member of the Lions-Magenes class…
The Lagrangian formulation for the irrotational wave motion is straightforward and follows from a Lagrangian functional which is the difference between the kinetic and the potential energy of the system. In the case of fluid with constant…
