The combination of boundary flow control and variable speed limit (VSL) is a widely used strategy for highway corridors to maintain safety and throughput when the capacity downstream is dropped. However, most proposed models assume fixed…
We show that different ways of extracting time scales from time-dependent velocity structure functions lead to different dynamic-multiscaling exponents in fluid turbulence. These exponents are related to equal-time multiscaling exponents by…
We study the compressible Navier-Stokes system driven by physically relevant transport noise, where the noise influences both the continuity and momentum equations. Our approach is based on transforming the system into a partial…

We introduce a diffuse interface model describing the evolution of a mixture of two different viscous incompressible fluids of equal density. The main novelty of the present contribution consists in the fact that the effects of temperature…
In this paper, we study a nonlinear fluid-structure interaction problem driven by a multiplicative, white-in-time noise. The problem consists of the Navier-Stokes equations describing the flow of an incompressible, viscous fluid in a 2D…
We consider the problem of modeling high-speed flows using machine learning methods. While most prior studies focus on low-speed fluid flows in which uniform time-stepping is practical, flows approaching and exceeding the speed of sound…

The temporal behaviors of non-Newtonian/Newtonian two-phase flows are closely tied to flow pattern formation mechanisms, influenced significantly by the non-Newtonian index, and exhibiting nonlinear rheological characteristics. The…
In this paper a stochastic model of a call center with a two-level architecture is analyzed. A first-level pool of operators answers calls, identifies, and handles non-urgent calls. A call classified as urgent has to be transferred to…
A surprising feature of flow in slowly sheared model foam (bubble raft) is a measured discontinuity in the rate of strain as a function of position such that part of the system is ``flowing'' and the rest is undergoing ``elastic''…
In this paper continuity theorems are established for the number of losses during a busy period of the $M/M/1/n$ queue. We consider an $M/GI/1/n$ queueing system where the service time probability distribution, slightly different in a…
A Markovian single-server queue is studied in an interactive random environment. The arrival and service rates of the queue depend on the environment, while the transition dynamics of the random environment depends on the queue length. We…
This paper is based on a formulation of the Navier-Stokes equations developed by P. Constantin and the first author (\texttt{arxiv:math.PR/0511067}, to appear), where the velocity field of a viscous incompressible fluid is written as the…
