We discuss a simple and experimentally available realization of fracton physics. We note that superfluid vortices form a Hamiltonian system that conserves total dipole moment and trace of the quadrupole moment of vorticity; thereby…
We set up the construction of generic (d+2)-dimensional metrics corresponding to (d+1)-dimensional fluids, representing holographically the hydrodynamic regimes of the putative dual theories. We give general seed equilibrium metrics…
In this paper we report on 2D numerical simulations concerning linear and nonlinear evolution of surface-tension-driven instability in two-fluid systems heated from below using classical and phase-field models. In the phase-field formalism,…
We do a generic study of the behavior of a hard disk system under the action of a thermal gradient in presence of an uniform gravity field. We observe the conduction-convection transition and measure the main system observables and fields…
This paper is dedicated to the construction of a pseudo-norm, for which small shock profiles of the barotropic Navier-Stokes equation have a contraction property. This contraction property holds in the class of any large 1D weak solutions…
We introduce an approximate model for predicting the net contact wrench between nominally rigid objects for use in simulation, control, and state estimation. The model combines and generalizes two ideas: a bed of springs (an "elastic…
Many viscous liquids behave effectively as incompressible under high pressures but display a pronounced dependence of viscosity on pressure. The classical incompressible Navier-Stokes model cannot account for both features, and a simple…
This continuum mechanical theory aims at detailing the underlying rational mechanics of dynamic boundary conditions proposed by Fischer, Maass, & Dieterich [1], Goldstein, Miranville, & Schimperna [2], and Knopf, Lam, Liu & Metzger, [3]. As…
In the laminar mode interactions among molecules generate friction between layers of water that slide with respect to each other. This friction triggers the shear stress, which is traditionally presumed to be linearly proportional to the…
We consider the motion of two superposed immiscible, viscous, incompressible, capillary fluids that are separated by a sharp interface which needs to be determined as part of the problem. Allowing for gravity to act on the fluids, we prove…
Probability density functions and conditional averages of velocity gradients derived from upper ocean observations are compared with results from forced simulations of the two-dimensional Navier-Stokes equations. Ocean data are derived from…
A new model for the "rapid" part of the velocity/pressure-gradient correlation in the Reynolds averaged Navier-Stokes equations is suggested. It is shown that in an inhomogeneous incompressible turbulent flow, the model that is linear in…
We consider the modified Navier-Stokes equations in R3 describing the motion of a fluid in the presence of a rotating rigid body. Weighted Sobolev spaces are used to describe the behavior of solutions at large distances. Under suitable…
We study an interface-capturing two-phase fluid model in which the interfacial tension is modelled as a volumetric stress. Since these stresses are obtainable from a Van der Waals-Cahn-Hilliard free energy, the model is, to a certain…
We consider the interaction of a compressible fluid with a flexible plate in two space dimensions. The fluid is described by the Navier--Stokes equations in a domain that is changing in accordance with the motion of the structure. The…
We study the constraints imposed by conformal symmetry on the equations of fluid dynamics at second order in gradients of the hydrodynamic variables. At zeroth order conformal symmetry implies a constraint on the equation of state, E=2/3 P,…
This paper presents the second-order perturbation theory of the Navier-Stokes equations for free surface flows, with the wave amplitude considered as the perturbation parameter. Gravity-capillary surface waves in incompressible viscous…
Convergence of particle systems to the Vlasov-Navier-Stokes equations is a difficult topic with only fragmentary results. Under a suitable modification of the classical Stokes drag force interaction, here a partial result in this direction…
Two-dimensional turbulence governed by the so-called $\alpha$ turbulence equations, which include the surface quasi-geostrophic equation ($\alpha=1$), the Navier--Stokes system ($\alpha=2$), and the governing equation for a shallow flow on…
We consider the motion of an incompressible viscous fluid that completely covers a smooth, compact and embedded hypersurface $\Sigma$ without boundary and flows along $\Sigma$. Local-in-time well-posedness is established in the framework of…
