The Stokes paradox is the statement that in a viscous two dimensional fluid, the "linear response" problem of fluid flow around an obstacle is ill-posed. We present a simple consequence of this paradox in the hydrodynamic regime of a Fermi…
It is well known that the full Navier-Stokes-Fourier system does not possess a strong solution in three dimensions which causes problems in applications. However, when modeling the flow of a fluid in a thin long pipe, the influence of the…
For the Stokes system in the half space, Kang [Math.~Ann.~2005] showed that a solution generated by a compactly supported, H\"older continuous boundary flux may have unbounded normal derivatives near the boundary. In this paper we first…

We explore the scaling behavior of an unsteady flow that is generated by an oscillating body of finite size in a gas. If the gas is gradually rarefied, the Navier-Stokes equations begin to fail and a kinetic description of the flow becomes…

Two-phase flow of two Newtonian incompressible viscous fluids with a soluble surfactant and different densities of the fluids can be modeled within the diffuse interface approach. We consider a Navier-Stokes/Cahn-Hilliard type system…
Fluid flows are typically studied by solving the Navier--Stokes equation. One of the fundamental assumptions of this equation is Stokes' hypothesis. This hypothesis assumes bulk viscosity, to be identically zero. The Stokes' hypothesis is a…
