The dynamics along the particle trajectories for the 3D axisymmetric Euler equations are considered. It is shown that if the inflow is rapidly increasing (pushy) in time, the corresponding laminar profile of the incompressible Euler flow is…
We prove finite-time vorticity blowup for smooth solutions of the 2D compressible Euler equations with smooth, localized, and non-vacuous initial data. The vorticity blowup occurs at the time of the first singularity, and is accompanied by…
Extending the results of Elling \cite{Elling-2013, Elling-2016}, we construct a weak solution of 2D incompressible Euler equation with initial vorticity of the form $w_0(x)={\left\vert x \right\vert}^{-1/\mu}g(\theta)$, where $g \in…
We consider the Cauchy problem for the full free boundary Euler equations in $3$d with an initial small velocity of size $O(\epsilon_0)$, in a moving domain which is initially an $O(\epsilon_0)$ perturbation of a flat interface. We assume…
This paper investigates the dynamics of time-periodic Euler flows in multi-connected, planar fluid regions which are ``stirred'' by the moving boundaries. The classical Helmholtz theorem on the transport of vorticity implies that if the…

The initial value problem for the Ginzburg-Landau-Schr\"odinger equation is examined in the $\epsilon \rightarrow 0$ limit under two main assumptions on the initial data $\phi^\epsilon$. The first assumption is that $\phi^\epsilon$ exhibits…
