The formation of singularities in the three-dimensional Euler equation is investigated. This is done by restricting the number of Fourier modes to a set which allows only for local interactions in wave number space. Starting from an initial…
In this paper, we consider the two-dimensional torus and we study the convergence of solutions of the Euler-Voigt equations to solutions of the Euler equations, under several regularity settings. More precisely, we first prove that for weak…
We report that many exact invariant solutions of the Navier-Stokes equations for both pipe and channel flows are well represented by just few modes of the model of McKeon & Sharma J. Fl. Mech. 658, 356 (2010). This model provides modes that…
An effort has been made to solve the Cauchy problem of the Navier-Stokes equations in the whole space by two methods. It is proved that the sum of the three vorticity components is a time-invariant in fluid motion. It has been proved that,…
In [Lacave, IHP, ana, to appear (2008)] the author considered the two dimensional Euler equations in the exterior of a thin obstacle shrinking to a curve and determined the limit velocity. In the present work, we consider the same problem…
Both experimental and numerical studies of fluid motion indicate that initially localized regions of vorticity tend to evolve into isolated vortices and that these vortices then serve as organizing centers for the flow. In this paper we…
The work described here shows that the known variational principle for the Navier-Stokes equations and the adjoint system can be modified to produce a set of Euler-Lagrange variational equations which have the same order and same solution…
In this note we contribute two results to the theory of the $2D$ Euler equations in vorticity form on the full plane. First, we establish a generalized Lagrangian representation of weak (in general measure-valued) solutions, which includes…
We consider a generalized alpha-type model in the whole three-dimensional space and driven by a stationary (time-independent) external force. This model contains as particular cases some relevant equations of the fluid dynamics, among them…
We consider solutions of the Navier-Stokes equations in $3d$ with vortex filament initial data of arbitrary circulation, that is, initial vorticity given by a divergence-free vector-valued measure of arbitrary mass supported on a smooth…
In this paper, we study the global Cauchy problem for a two-phase fluid model consisting of the pressureless Euler equations and the incompressible Navier-Stokes equations where the coupling of two equations is through the drag force. We…
This is an introductory course on fully developed turbulence. It discusses: in Lecture 1: the Navier Stokes equations, existence of solutions, statistical description, energy balance and cascade picture; in Lecture 2: the Kolmogorov theory…
We review the work of Hairer and Mattingly on ergodicity of two dimensional Navier-Stokes dynamics and discuss some open mathematical problems in the theory of 2d turbulence.
Visual manifestations of intermittency in computations of three dimensional Navier-Stokes fluid turbulence appear as the low-dimensional or `thin' filamentary sets on which vorticity and strain accumulate as energy cascades down to small…
A well-known unsolved problem (in the classical theory of fluid mechanics) is to identify a set of initial velocities, which may depend on the viscosity, the body forces and possibly the boundary of the fluid that will allow global in time…
We consider the dyadic model, which is a toy model to test issues of well-posedness and blow-up for the Navier-Stokes and Euler equations. We prove well-posedness of positive solutions of the viscous problem in the relevant scaling range…
Singularity of Navier-Stokes equations is uncovered for the first time which explains the mechanism of transition of a smooth laminar flow to turbulence. It is found that when an inflection point is formed on the velocity profile in…
