We propose a mixed finite element method for the motion of a strongly viscous, ideal, and isentropic gas. At the boundary we impose a Navier-slip condition such that the velocity equation can be posed in mixed form with the vorticity as an…

There are several questions with NS, which include: 1. Both symmetric shear terms and stretching terms in strain and stress are coordinate-dependent and thus not Galilean invariant; 2. The physical meaning of both diagonal and off-diagonal…

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…
In this note we introduce speed and direction variables to describe the motion of incompressible viscous flows. Fluid velocity ${\bf u}$ is decomposed into ${\bf u}=u{\bf r}$, with $u=|{\bf u}|$ and ${\bf r}={\bf u}/|{\bf u}|$. We consider…
