This work is devoted to investigating a compressible fluid system with low stratification, which is driven by fast acoustic waves and internal waves. The approximation using a soundproof model is justified. More precisely, the soundproof…
The validity of the anelastic approximation has recently been questioned in the regime of rapidly-rotating compressible convection in low Prandtl number fluids (Calkins et al. 2015). Given the broad usage and the high computational…
The Boussinesq approximation is a cornerstone of geophysical fluid dynamics, yet its thermodynamic and energetic underpinnings have remained ambiguous. In standard formulations, the links with the fully compressible Navier--Stokes equations…
We determine the asymptotic conditions under which the Boussinesq approximation is valid for oscillatory convection in a rapidly rotating fluid. In the astrophysically relevant parameter regime of small Prandtl number, we show that the…

Global-scale inertial modes of oscillations have been recently observed on the Sun. They might play an important dynamic and diagnostic role for the Sun. This work aims to assess the validity of simplifying assumptions in the equation of…
We consider a two-dimensional, incompressible, inviscid fluid with variable density, subject to the action of gravity. Assuming a stable equilibrium density profile, we adopt the so-called Boussinesq approximation, which neglects density…
In this paper we study the validity of the so-called Oberbeck-Boussinesq approximation for compressible viscous perfect gases in the whole three-dimensional space. Both the cases of uids with positive heat conductivity and zero conductivity…

Considered herein are a number of variants of the Boussinesq type systems modeling surface water waves. Such equations were derived by different authors to describe the two-way propagation of long gravity waves. A question of existence of…
We consider a Boussinesq system describing one-dimensional internal waves which develop at the boundary between two immiscible fluids, and we restrict to its traveling waves. The method which yields explicitly all the elliptic or degenerate…
We study here some asymptotic models for the propagation of internal and surface waves in a two-fluid system. We focus on the so-called long wave regime for one dimensional waves, and consider the case of a flat bottom. Starting from the…
Most of the asymptotically derived Boussinesq systems of water wave theory for long waves of small amplitude fail to satisfy exact mechanical conservation laws for mass, momentum and energy. It is thus only fair to consider approximate…
A generalized version of the $abcd$-Boussinesq class of systems is derived to accommodate variable bottom topography in two-dimensional space. This extension allows for the conservation of suitable energy functionals in some cases and…
The aim of this communication is to present a simplified, yet rigorous, deduction of the Boussinesq approximated governing equations for buoyant flows. In order to carry out the core deduction procedure, a simplified version of the manifold…
