The world of nanoscales in fluidics is the frontier where the continuum of fluid mechanics meets the atomic, and even quantum, nature of matter. While water dynamics remains largely classical under extreme confinement, several experiments…
Although the Navier-Stokes equation (NSE) is derived under angular-momentum conservation (AMC), numerical simulation methods often lack it. Here, we reveal that AMC violations result from implementation of the degenerated viscous terms of…
A new formulation of the Navier-Stokes equation, in terms of the gradient of the total mechanical energy, is derived for the time-averaged flows, and the singular point possibly existing in the Navier-Stokes equation is exactly found.…
We first establish existence for all positive time near equilibrium for the moving interface problem between the Navier-Stokes equations for the evolving fluid phase (moved by the fluid velocity) and an elastic body modelled by the linear…
In 1981, Frisch and Morf [1] postulated the existence of complex singularities in solutions of Navier-Stokes equations. Present progress on this conjecture is hindered by the computational burden involved in simulations of the Euler…
Nanofluidics shows great promise for energy conversion and desalination applications. The performance of nanofluidic devices is controlled by liquid-solid friction, quantified by the Navier friction coefficient (FC). Despite decades of…
In the laminar mode interactions among molecules generate friction between layers of water that slide with respect to each other. This friction triggers the shear stress, which is traditionally presumed to be linearly proportional to the…
Many fundamental problems in fluid dynamics are related to the effects of solid boundaries. In general, they install sharp gradients and contribute to the developement of small-scale structures, which are computationally expensive to…
We investigate a one dimensional flow described with the non-compressible coupled Euler and non-compressible Navier-Stokes equations in Cartesian coordinate systems. We couple the two fluids through the continuity equation where different…
The year 2022 marked the 200th anniversary of the first appearance of the Navier-Stokes equation, a landmark in Fluid Dynamics introduced by Claude-Louis Navier in 1822. This equation revolutionized the understanding of fluid motion by…
Simulating the interaction of fluids with immersed moving solids is playing an important role for gaining a better quantitative understanding of how fluid dynamics is altered by the presence of obstacles and which forces are exerted on the…
We develop mathematical methods which allow us to study asymptotic properties of solutions to the three dimensional Navier-Stokes system for incompressible fluid in the whole three dimensional space. We deal either with the Cauchy problem…
In this short survey paper, we focus on some new developments in the study of the regularity or potential singularity formation for solutions of the 3D Navier-Stokes equations. Some of the motivating questions are: Are certain norms…
We consider systems of particles coupled with fluids. The particles are described by the evolution of their density, and the fluid is described by the Navier-Stokes equations. The particles add stress to the fluid and the fluid carries and…
The presented research paper illustrates the development of a new methodology to solve 2-dimensional (2D) Navier-Stoke equations, which Pukhnachev proposed through introducing unknown functions in the stream and pressure functions of fluid…
Classical particle mechanics on curved spaces is related to the flow of ideal fluids, by a dual interpretation of the Hamilton-Jacobi equation. As in second quantization, the procedure relates the description of a system with a finite…
In my PhD thesis I show the existence of global-in-time weak solutions for a Navier-Stokes fluid interacting with a linearly elastic shell of Koiter type. This is achieved by the introduction of a new method for showing the compactness of…
Fluids can behave in a highly irregular, turbulent way. It has long been realised that, therefore, some weak notion of solution is required when studying the fundamental partial differential equations of fluid dynamics, such as the…
A few basic, intuitive, properties of the Navier-Stokes system of equations for incompressible fluid flows are discussed in this paper. We present a rephrased interpretation of the Navier-Stokes equation in a space having an arbitrary…
In fairly general conditions we give explicit (smooth) solutions for the potential flow. We show that, rigorously speaking, the equations of the fluid mechanics have not rotational solutions. However, within the usual approximations of an…
