Linearized stability of incompressible viscous fluid flows in a thin spherical shell is studied by using the two-dimensional Navier--Stokes equations on a sphere. The stationary flow on the sphere has two singularities (a sink and a source)…
A moving contact line occurs at the intersection of an interface formed between two immiscible liquids and a solid. According to viscous theory, the flow is entirely governed by just two parameters, the viscosity ratio, $\lambda$, and the…

It is known from both experiments and molecular dynamics simulations that chemically patterning a solid surface has an effect on the flow of an adjacent liquid. This fact is in stark contrast with predictions of classical fluid mechanics…
The description of free surface flows can often be simplified to thin film (or lubrication) equations, when the slopes of the liquid-gas interface are small. Here we present a long wavelength theory that remains fully quantitative for steep…

We study incompressible fluid flow through a thin poroelastic layer and rigorously derive a macroscopic model when the thickness of the layer tends to zero. Within the layer we assume a periodic structure and both, the periodicity and the…
We study the system of equations which describes barotropic (isentropic) flows of viscous compressible multi-fluids (mixtures of fluids). We study the relations between pressure, densities, concentrations, viscosities and other parameters…
By using a formulation of motion equations for a viscous (compressible) fluid flow in terms of the vorticity and the rate of expansion as the main fluid dynamical variables, an approximation model is established for compressible flows with…
