We prove local well-posedness for the Muskat problem on the half-plane, which models motion of an interface between two fluids of distinct densities (e.g., oil and water) in a porous medium (e.g., an aquifer) that sits atop an impermeable…
We consider the incompressible Euler equations in a bounded domain in three space dimensions. Recently, the first two authors proved Onsager's conjecture for bounded domains, i.e., that the energy of a solution to these equations is…
Multi-component fluid flow simulations in multi-scale porous structures often involve regions that are under-resolved at practical computational resolutions. Accurately capturing the contributions from these unresolved regions is critical.…
We study the asymptotic behavior of the motion of an ideal incompressible fluid in a perforated domain. The porous medium is composed of inclusions of size $\varepsilon$ separated by distances $d_\varepsilon$ and the fluid fills the…
In this paper, we consider accessibility percolation on hypercubes, i.e., we place i.i.d. uniform [0,1] random variables on vertices of a hypercube, and study whether there is a path connecting two vertices such that the values of these…
We consider the stability of transonic contact discontinuity for the two-dimensional steady compressible Euler flows in a finitely long nozzle. This is the first work on the mixed-type problem of transonic flows across a contact…
Our study of a basic model for incompressible two-phase flows with phase transitions consistent with thermodynamics in the case of constant but non-equal densities of the phases, begun by the first two authors is continued. We extend our…

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…
As a first step towards the asymptotic description of coherent structures in compressible shear flows, we present a description of nonlinear equilibrium solutions of the Navier--Stokes equations in the compressible asymptotic suction…
Using fluctuating hydrodynamics we describe the slow build-up of long range spatial correlations in a freely evolving fluid of inelastic hard spheres. In the incompressible limit, the behavior of spatial velocity correlations (including…
We consider the steady heat transfer between a collection of impermeable obstacles immersed in an incompressible 2D potential flow, when each obstacle has a prescribed boundary temperature distribution. Inside the fluid, the temperature…
This paper concerns the dynamics of two layers of compressible, barotropic, viscous fluid lying atop one another. The lower fluid is bounded below by a rigid bottom, and the upper fluid is bounded above by a trivial fluid of constant…
In this paper, we investigate the Dirichlet boundary value problem on Cartan-Hadamard manifolds, focusing on the non-existence of bounded (viscosity) solutions to semi-linear elliptic equations of the form $\Delta u + f(u) = 0$ in domains…
We study a thermodynamically consistent diffuse-interface model that describes the motion of two macroscopically immiscible, incompressible, and viscous Newtonian fluids with unmatched densities. This model is compatible with continuum…
A new parallel, computationally efficient immersed boundary method for solving three-dimensional, viscous, incompressible flows on unbounded domains is presented. Immersed surfaces with prescribed motions are generated using the…
The majority of available numerical algorithms for interfacial two-phase flows either treat both fluid phases as incompressible (constant density) or treat both phases as compressible (variable density). This presents a limitation for the…
This is the second of two papers devoted to the asymptotic behavior of solutions to the incompressible Navier-Stokes equations in a half-space with point vortex initial data. A major difficulty stems from the interaction between the point…
It is well known that a boundary layer develops along an infinite plate under oscillatory motion in a Newtonian fluid. In this work, this oscillatory boundary layer theory is generalized to the case of linear viscoelastic(LVE) flow. We…
The ``no-slip'' boundary condition, i.e., zero fluid velocity relative to the solid at the fluid-solid interface, has been very successful in describing many macroscopic flows. A problem of principle arises when the no-slip boundary…
