Many natural and engineering systems involve the mixing of two fluid streams, in which the effects of density and viscosity gradients play important roles in determining flow stability. We perform linear stability calculations for a jet…
The celebrated experiment of Tuval et al. \cite{tuval2005bacterial} showed that the bacteria living a water drop can form a thin layer near the air-water interface, where a so-called chemotaxis-fluid system with physical boundary conditions…
In many cases, groundwater flow in an unconfined aquifer can be simplified to a one-dimensional Sturm-Liouville model of the form: \begin{equation*} x''(t)+\lambda x(t)=h(t)+\varepsilon f(x(t)),\hspace{.1in}t\in(0,\pi) \end{equation*}…

We consider a free-boundary model for the ice-sheet interacting with an ocean. The model captures the coupling between a viscous geophysical fluid and an elastic interface through kinematic and dynamic boundary conditions that account for…
We apply the cell merging method to a model shallow water problem with a permeable boundary. We use a cut cell approach which is more easily and systematically scalable with different shapes of boundaries. The novel cell merging method…
In this paper, we study a free boundary problem for compressible spherically symmetric Navier-Stokes equations with a gravitational force and degenerate viscosity coefficients. Under certain assumptions that imposed on the initial data, we…
In this paper, we consider a problem inspired by the real-world need to identify the topographical features of ocean basins. Specifically we consider the problem of estimating the bottom impermeable boundary to an inviscid, incompressible,…
Recently, it was realised that liquid viscosity has a lower bound which is nearly constant for all liquids and is governed by fundamental physical constants. This was supported by experimental data in noble and molecular liquids. Here, we…
