A model is developed describing the approach to a finite-time singularity of the Navier-Stokes equations for two interacting vortices. The model is derived from a combination of the Biot-Savart law and an equation describing the evolution…
We consider the 3D axisymmetric Euler equations without swirl on some bounded axial symmetric domains. In this setting, well-posedness is well known due to the essentially 2D geometry. The quantity $\omega^\theta/r$ plays the role of…
Under the assumption that a solution to the 3D incompressible Euler equations blows up at a time $T_\ast$ and that $T_\ast $ is the first such time, we establish lower bounds on the rate of blow-up of the maximum norm of the vorticity. In…
We analyze the two-dimensional incompressible Navier-Stokes equations on a smooth, bounded domain with Navier boundary conditions. Starting from an initial vorticity in $L^p$ with $p>2$, we show strong convergence of the vorticity in the…
In this paper, we consider two systems modelling the evolution of a rigid body in an incompressible fluid in a bounded domain of the plane. The first system corresponds to an inviscid fluid driven by the Euler equation whereas the other one…
In the studies of the Navier-Stokes (NS) regularity problem, it has become increasingly clear that a more realistic path to improved a priori bounds is to try to break away from the scaling of the energy-level estimates in the realm of the…
In this three-part monograph, we prove that steady, incompressible Navier-Stokes flows posed over the moving boundary, $y = 0$, can be decomposed into Euler and Prandtl flows in the inviscid limit globally in $[1,\infty) \times [0,\infty)$,…
In light of the question of finite-time blow-up vs. global well-posedness of solutions to problems involving nonlinear partial differential equations, we provide several cautionary examples which indicate that modifications to the boundary…
We show that for a certain family of initial data, there exist non-unique weak solutions to the 3D incompressible Euler equations satisfying the weak energy inequality, whereas the weak limit of every sequence of Leray-Hopf weak solutions…
A new discrete-velocity model is presented to solve the three-dimensional Euler equations. The velocities in the model are of an adaptive nature---both the origin of the discrete-velocity space and the magnitudes of the discrete-velocities…
In this paper we consider the Cauchy problem for the 3D Navier-Stokes equations for incompressible flows. The initial data are assumed to be smooth and rapidly decaying at infinity. A famous open problem is whether classical solutions can…
The Navier-Stokes equations generate an infinite set of generalized Lyapunov exponents defined by different ways of measuring the distance between exponentially diverging perturbed and unperturbed solutions. This set is demonstrated to be…
Fluid flows are intrinsically characterized via the topology and dynamics of underlying vortex lines. Turbulence in common fluids like water and air, mathematically described by the incompressible Navier-Stokes equations (INSE), engenders…

In the present work, we investigate a numerical one-dimensional solver to the Navier-Stokes equation that retains all terms, including both pressure and dissipation. Solutions to simple examples that illustrate the actions of the nonlinear…
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…
We investigate the three-dimensional incompressible Navier-Stokes equations. The equations are discretized with Fourier spectral method and a fourth-order Runge-Kutta scheme in time. The spectral accuracy, resolution conditions, and an…
