Expansions in the oscillation modes of tidally perturbed bodies provide a useful framework for representing tidally induced flows. However, recent work has demonstrated that such expansions produce inaccurate predictions for secular orbital…
Motivated by the work of D. Hoff and K. Zumbrun (Indiana Univ. Math. J. 44: 603-676, 1995), we investigate the diffusion wave phenomena in three-dimensional incompressible viscoelastic flows. By employing the representation formula of the…
In this work we will focus on the existence of weak solutions for a system describing a general compressible viscous fluid in the case of the pressure being a linear function of the density and the viscous stress tensor being a non-linear…
We propose a suitable analytical framework to perform numerical analysis of problems arising in compressible fluid models with uncertain data. We discuss both weak and strong stochastic approach, where the former is based on the knowledge…
We present evidence of the hysteretic nature of dissipation in unsteady turbulent flows. Wind tunnel experiments and direct numerical simulations in oscillating flows show that, at fixed mean Reynolds number, the dissipation constant is…
Internal flows inside gravitationally stable astrophysical objects, such as the Sun, stars and compact stars are compressed and extremely subsonic. Such low Mach number flows are usually encountered when studying for example dynamo action…
The search for solutions to the theory of weakly non-linear internal gravity wave turbulence is an active research topic. It is notably stimulated by the fact that this regime could drive fine-scale ocean dynamics for which the…

We present a realistic phenomenological description of liquid transport through defective, layered membranes. We derive general expressions based on conventional models of laminar flow and extend the formalism to accommodate slip flow. We…
We study diffusion and mixing in different linear fluid dynamics models, mainly related to incompressible flows. In this setting, mixing is a purely advective effect which causes a transfer of energy to high frequencies. When diffusion is…
Leaky waves are an important class of waves, particularly for guiding waves along structures embedded within another medium; a mismatch in wavespeeds often leads to leakage of energy from the waveguide, or interface, into the medium, which…
Several competing artificial compressibility methods for the incompressible flow equations are examined using the high-order flux reconstruction method. The established artificial compressibility method (ACM) of \citet{Chorin1967} is…
A compactness framework is formulated for the incompressible limit of approximate solutions with weak uniform bounds with respect to the adiabatic exponent for the steady Euler equations for compressible fluids in any dimension. One of our…
We provide a test for numerical simulations, for several two dimensional incompressible flows, that appear to develop sharp fronts. We show that in order to have a front the velocity has to have uncontrolled velocity growth.
We introduce a diffuse interface model describing the evolution of a mixture of two different viscous incompressible fluids of equal density. The main novelty of the present contribution consists in the fact that the effects of temperature…

Using fluctuating hydrodynamics we describe the slow build-up of long range spatial correlations in a freely evolving fluid of inelastic hard spheres. In the incompressible limit, the behavior of spatial velocity correlations (including…
