We show a case of steady flow in a granular gas that, for small shear rates, is accurately described by Navier-Stokes hydrodynamics, even for high inelasticity. The (low density) granular gas is composed of identical inelastic spheres and…

Fluids can behave in a highly irregular, turbulent way. It has long been realised that, therefore, some weak notion of solution is required when studying the fundamental partial differential equations of fluid dynamics, such as the…

We show that a Galilean invariant version of fluid dynamics can be derived by the methods of statistical dynamics using Maxwell's balance equations. The basic equation is non-local, and might replace Boltzmann's equation if the latter turns…
We analyze the transport properties of a low density ensemble of identical macroscopic particles immersed in an active fluid. The particles are modeled as inelastic hard spheres (granular gas). The non-homogeneous active fluid is modeled by…

Many complex fluids can be described by continuum hydrodynamic field equations, to which noise must be added in order to capture thermal fluctuations. In almost all cases, the resulting coarse-grained stochastic partial differential…
We apply the stochastic variational method to the action of the ideal fluid and showed that the Navier-Stokes equation is derived. In this variational method, the effect of dissipation is realized as the direct consequence of the…
In the continuum flow regime, the Navier-Stokes equations are usually used for the description of gas dynamics. On the other hand, the Boltzmann equation is applied for the rarefied gas dynamics. Both equations are constructed from modeling…
Turbulence is a non-local phenomenon and has multiple-scales. Non-locality can be addressed either implicitly or explicitly. Implicitly, by subsequent resolution of all spatio-temporal scales. However, if directly solved for the temporal or…
