We deal with the incompressible Navier-Stokes equations, in two and three dimensions, when some vortex patches are prescribed as initial data i.e. when there is an internal boundary across which the vorticity is discontinuous. We show…
The present work is concerned with the issue of spurious coupling effects that are pervasive in fully coupled magneto-mechanical finite element simulations involving very soft non-magnetic or air-like media. We first address the…
Small heavy particles in a fluid flow respond to the flow on a time-scale proportional to their inertia, or Stokes number St. Their behaviour is thought to be gradually modified as St increases. We show, in the steady spatially-periodic…
In some problems of fluid mechanics, it is possible to be confronted with data that are not regular, that is why we are interested here in the search for the so-called very weak solutions for the stationary Stokes problem with Navier-type…
Stationary droplets simulated by multi-phase lattice Boltzmann methods lead to spurious velocities around them. In this article I report the origin of these spurious velocities for one example and show how they can be avoided.
Optical singularities manifesting at the center of vector vortex beams are unstable, since their topological charge is higher than the lowest value permitted by Maxwell's equations. Inspired by conceptually similar phenomena occurring in…
An efficient and accurate finite-element algorithm is described for the numerical solution of the incompressible Navier-Stokes (INS) equations. The new algorithm that solves the INS equations in a velocity-pressure reformulation is based on…
This paper presents a streamfunction-vorticity formulation for the Navier--Stokes and Euler equations on general surfaces. Notably, this includes non-simply connected surfaces, on which the harmonic components of the velocity field play a…
We study the forces and torques experienced by pill-shaped Janus particles of different aspect ratios where half of the surface obeys the no-slip boundary condition and the other half obeys the Navier slip condition of varying slip lengths.…
In this note we review several situations in which stochastic PDEs exhibit ergodic properties. We begin with the basic dissipative conditions, as stated by Da Prato and Zabczyk in their classical monograph. Then we describe the singular…
The problem of possible astrophysical consequences of the existence of exotic differential structures on manifolds is discussed. It is argued that corrections to the curvature of the form of a source like terms should be expected in the…
Vortices and axisymmetric vortex rings are considered in the framework of the subcritical nonlinear Schrodinger equations. The higher order nonlinearity present in such systems models many-body interactions in superfluid systems and allows…
We formulate a method for computing Stokes flow past a highly deformed sphere with arbitrarily defined surface velocity. The fundamental ingredient is an explicit extrapolation operator extending a velocity field from the surface of a…
In this study, a new set of fifth-order Stokes wave solutions, incorporating the effects of a linear shear current, is derived by utilizing the perturbation method originally proposed for pure waves that was recently published. The present…
The paper develops a finite element method for the Navier-Stokes equations of incompressible viscous fluid in a time-dependent domain. The method builds on a quasi-Lagrangian formulation of the problem. The paper provides stability and…
We prove a version of the Stokes formula for differential forms on locally convex spaces. The main tool used for proving this formula is the surface layer theorem proved in another paper by the author. Moreover, for differential forms of a…
A posteriori estimates for mixed finite element discretizations of the Navier-Stokes equations are derived. We show that the task of estimating the error in the evolutionary Navier-Stokes equations can be reduced to the estimation of the…
We consider a numerical approach for the incompressible surface Navier-Stokes equation on surfaces with arbitrary genus $g(\mathcal{S})$. The approach is based on a reformulation of the equation in Cartesian coordinates of the embedding…
We prove that there exists a weak solution of the Stokes system with a non-zero external force and no-slip boundary conditions in a half space of dimensions three and higher so that its normal derivatives are unbounded near boundary. A…
In this work we consider a poroelastic flexible material that may deform largely which is situated in an incompressible fluid driven by the Navier-Stokes equations in two or three space dimensions. By a variational approach we show…
