We study the Euler-Korteweg equations with a weak capillarity tensor. It formally converges to the Euler equations in the zero capillarity limit. Our aim is two-fold : first we prove rigorously this limit in R d , d $\ge$ 1, and obtain a…
We provide a novel existence result for energy-variational solutions to a general class of evolutionary partial differential equations. Compared to previous works on this solution concept, the generalization is mainly twofold: a relaxation…

We investigate the long-time behavior of solutions to the isothermal Euler, Korteweg or quantum Navier Stokes equations, as well as generalizations of these equations where the convex pressure law is asymptotically linear near vacuum. By…
The concept of a fluid algebra was introduced by Sullivan over a decade ago as an algebraic construct which contains everything necessary in order to write down a form of the Euler equation, as an ODE whose solutions have invariant…
In the first part of the paper we provide a new classification of incompressible fluids characterized by a continuous monotone relation between the velocity gradient and the Cauchy stress. The considered class includes Euler fluids,…
The main objective of this paper is to prove that if capillarity effect is taken into account then there exist dissipative solutions to a system describing viscoplastic compressible flows with density dependent viscosities in a periodic…

This work is devoted to prove existence of global weak solutions for a general isothermal model of capillary fluids derived by J.- E Dunn and J. Serrin (1985) [6], which can be used as a phase transition model. We improve the results of [5]…
For an Euler system, with dynamics generated by a potential energy functional, we propose a functional format for the relative energy and derive a relative energy identity. The latter, when applied to specific energies, yields relative…

In the present note we review some recent results for a class of singular perturbation problems for a Navier-Stokes-Korteweg system with Coriolis force. More precisely, we study the asymptotic behaviour of solutions when taking…
In this paper we are interested in the barotropic compressible Navier-Stokes system endowed with a non-local capillarity tensor depending on a small parameter $\epsilon$ such that it heuristically tends to the local Korteweg system. After…
In 1901, Korteweg formulated a constitutive equation for the Cauchy stress tensor to provide a continuum mechanical model for capillarity within fluids. Dunn and Serrin [Arch. Ration. Mech. Anal. 88(2):95-133,1985] in 1985 further modified…
In this article, we consider the compressible Navier-Stokes equation with density dependent viscosity coefficients and a term of capillarity introduced by Coquel et al in \cite{5CR}. This model includes at the same time the barotropic…
