We introduce a method of rigorous analysis of the location and type of complex singularities for nonlinear higher order PDEs as a function of the initial data. The method is applied to determine rigorously the asymptotic structure of…
Numerical solutions of the laminar Prandtl boundary-layer and Navier-Stokes equations are considered for the case of the two-dimensional uniform flow past an impulsively-started circular cylinder. We show how Prandtl's solution develops a…
Elliptic partial differential equations (PDEs) arise in many areas of computational sciences such as computational fluid dynamics, biophysics, engineering, geophysics and more. They are difficult to solve due to their global nature and…
In 1981, Frisch and Morf [1] postulated the existence of complex singularities in solutions of Navier-Stokes equations. Present progress on this conjecture is hindered by the computational burden involved in simulations of the Euler…
Boundary integral methods are highly suited for problems with complicated geometries, but require special quadrature methods to accurately compute the singular and nearly singular layer potentials that appear in them. This paper presents a…
Whether integrable, partially integrable or nonintegrable, nonlinear partial differential equations (PDEs) can be handled from scratch with essentially the same toolbox, when one looks for analytic solutions in closed form. The basic tool…

Asymptotic stability is with no doubts an essential property to be studied for any system. This analysis often becomes very difficult for coupled systems and even harder when different timescales appear. The singular perturbation method…
