Friction drag from a turbulent fluid moving past or inside an object plays a crucial role in domains as diverse as transportation, public utility infrastructure, energy technology, and human health. As a direct measure of the shear-induced…
Three-dimensional control is considered in the flow past a backward-facing step (BFS). The BFS flow at Reynolds number $Re=500$ (defined with the step height and the maximum inlet velocity) is two-dimensional and linearly stable but…
We consider the compressible Navier-Stokes system in three dimensions with general inflow-outflow boundary conditions, meaning that we prescribe a boundary velocity which has non-zero normal component and accordingly the density is…

In this paper, we obtain a blow up criterion for classical solutions to the 3-D compressible Naiver-Stokes equations just in terms of the gradient of the velocity, similar to the Beal-Kato-Majda criterion for the ideal incompressible flow.…

Continuum-based theories, such as Navier-Stokes equations, have been considered inappropriate for flows under nonequilibrium conditions. In part, it is due to the lack of rotational degrees of freedom in the Maxwell-Boltzmann distribution.…
A suspension of elastic chains of small beads in a Newtonian fluid is a common model for a viscoelastic polymer solution. The configuration of these multibead chains can be described by a distribution function that evolves according to a…
It is a commonly observed phenomenon that spherical particles with inertia in an incompressible fluid do not behave as ideal tracers. Due to the inertia of the particle, the dynamics are described in a four dimensional phase space and thus…
