In general, before separating from a boundary, the flow moves toward reverse direction near the boundary against the laminar flow direction. Here in this paper, a clue to such reverse flow phenomena (in the mathematical sense) is observed.…
The steady motion of a viscous incompressible fluid in distorted pipes, of finite length, is modeled through the Navier-Stokes equations with mixed boundary conditions: the inflow is given by an arbitrary member of the Lions-Magenes class…
For the incompressible Navier-Stokes flows passing a certain type of cones $D$ with the Navier total-slip boundary condition, we show that there exists an absolute constant $C_* > 0$ such that if \[ \sup_{x\in D}r|v_{0,\theta}|\leq C_*…
We analyze a Navier-Stokes-Cahn-Hilliard model for viscous incompressible two-phase flows where the mechanisms of chemotaxis, active transport and reaction are taken into account. The evolution system couples the Navier-Stokes equations for…

We study the effect of advection and small diffusion on passive tracers. The advecting velocity field is assumed to have mean zero and to possess time-periodic stream lines. Using a canonical transform to action-angle variables followed by…

A numerical study of stably stratified flows past spheres at Reynolds numbers $Re=200$ and $Re=300$ is reported. In these flow regimes, a neutrally stratified laminar flow induces distinctly different near-wake features. However, the flow…
The classical fluid dynamics boundary condition of no-slip suggests that variation in the wettability of a solid should not affect the flow of an adjacent liquid. However experiments and molecular dynamics simulations indicate that this is…
Relativistic fluids are Lorentz invariant, and a non-relativistic limit of such fluids leads to the well-known Navier-Stokes equation. However, for fluids moving with respect to a reference system, or in critical systems with generic…
Physical vacuum is a special superfluid medium. Its motion is described by the Navier-Stokes equation having two slightly modified terms that relate to internal forces. They are the pressure gradient and the dissipation force because of…
This paper presents some novel contributions to the theory of inviscid flow regarding the forces exerted on a body moving through such a fluid in two dimensions. It is argued that acceleration of the body corresponds to vorticity generation…
A freely falling stream of weakly cohesive granular particles is modeled and analysed with help of event driven simulations and continuum hydrodynamics. The former show a breakup of the stream into droplets, whose size is measured as a…
