In this paper, we study two-dimensional steady incompressible Euler flows in which the vorticity is sharply concentrated in a finite number of regions of small diameter in a bounded domain. Mathematical analysis of such flows is an…
We consider the incompressible axisymmetric Navier-Stokes equations with swirl as an idealized model for tornado-like flows. Assuming an infinite vortex line which interacts with a boundary surface resembles the tornado core, we look for…
Two-dimensional Euler flows, in the plane or on simple surfaces, possess a material invariant, namely the scalar vorticity normal to the surface. Consequently, flows with piecewise-uniform vorticity remain that way, and moreover evolve in a…
In fluid mechanics, a lot of authors have been reporting analytical solutions of Euler and Navier-Stokes equations. But there is an essential deficiency of non-stationary solutions indeed. In our presentation, we explore the case of…
