A method for deriving provably stable low-dimensional Galerkin models of post-transient incompressible flows is introduced. The proposed approach involves an iterative procedure for expansion modes that satisfy Lyapunov stability in the…
Many unsteady flows exhibiting complex dynamics are nevertheless characterized by emergent large-scale coherence in space and time. Reduced-order models based on Galerkin projection of the governing equations onto an orthogonal modal basis…
The stability of two-dimensional diverging and converging flows in an annulus between two permeable cylinders is examined. The basic flow is irrotational and has both the radial and azimuthal components. It is shown that for a wide range of…
This paper concerns a diffuse interface model for the flow of two incompressible viscoelastic fluids in a bounded domain. More specifically, the fluids are assumed to be macroscopically immiscible, but with a small transition region, where…
Slow flow of a single fluid through a porous medium is well understood on a macroscopic level through Darcy's law, a linear relation between flow rate and a combination of pressure differences, viscosity, and gravitational forces. Two-phase…
We study 3D chaotic dynamics through an analysis of transport in a granular flow in a half-full spherical tumbler rotated sequentially about two orthogonal axes (a bi-axial "blinking" tumbler). The flow is essentially quasi-2D in any…
The velocity field and the associated tangential stress corresponding to flow of a generalized second grade fluid between two infinite coaxial circular cylinders, are determined by means of the Laplace and Hankel transforms. At time $t=0$…
We study the steady streaming between two infinitely long circular cylinders produced by small amplitude transverse vibrations of the inner cylinder about the axis of the outer cylinder. The Vishik-Lyusternik method is employed to construct…

We prove the existence of generalized solution for incompressible and viscous non-Newtonian two-phase fluid flow for spatial dimension 2 and 3. The phase boundary moves along with the fluid flow plus its mean curvature while exerting…
In this paper, we study two-dimensional steady incompressible Euler flows in which the vorticity is sharply concentrated in a finite number of regions of small diameter in a bounded domain. Mathematical analysis of such flows is an…
We prove existence of weak solutions for a diffuse interface model for the flow of two viscous incompressible Newtonian fluids in a bounded domain in two and three space dimensions. In contrast to previous works, we study a new model…
Using complementary numerical approaches at high resolution, we study the late-time behaviour of an inviscid, incompressible two-dimensional flow on the surface of a sphere. Starting from a random initial vorticity field comprised of a…
The slow viscous flow through a doubly-periodic array of cylinders does not have an analytical solution. However, as a reduced model for the flow within fibrous porous media, this solution is important for many real-world systems. We…
This study investigates three-dimensional, steady-state, and non-Newtonian flows within a very thin porous medium (VTPM). The medium is modeled as a domain confined between two parallel plates and perforated by solid cylinders that connect…
In the present paper we study the fast rotation limit for viscous incompressible fluids with variable density, whose motion is influenced by the Coriolis force. We restrict our analysis to two dimensional flows. In the case when the initial…
In this work, we provide two novel approaches to show that incompressible fluid flow in a finite domain contains at most a finite number vortices. We use a recently developed geometric theory of incompressible viscous flows along with an…
We consider dry granular flow down an inclined chute with a localised contraction theoretically and numerically. The flow regimes are predicted through a novel extended one-dimensional hydraulic theory. A discrete particle method validated…
The bounded oscillations of rotating fluid-filled ellipsoids can provide physical insight into the flow dynamics of deformed planetary interiors. The inertial modes, sustained by the Coriolis force, are ubiquitous in rapidly rotating fluids…
An ideal compressible fluid is considered, with an equilibrium density being a given function of coordinates due to presence of some static external forces. The slow flows in such system, which do not disturb the density, are investigated…
