The Navier-Stokes equation can be written in a form of Poisson equation. For laminar flow in a channel (plane Poiseuille flow), the Navier-Stokes equation has a non-zero source term and a non-zero solution within the domain. For…

A simulation of the hydrodynamics on the two dimensional non-commutative space is performed, in which the space coordinates $(x, y)$ are non-commutative, satisfying the commutation relation $[x, y]=i \theta$. The Navier-Stokes equation has…

We expose a hidden scaling symmetry of the Navier-Stokes equations in the limit of vanishing viscosity, which stems from dynamical space-time rescaling around suitably defined Lagrangian scaling centers. At a dynamical level, the hidden…

We derive upper bounds for the number of degrees of freedom of two-dimensional Navier--Stokes turbulence freely decaying from a smooth initial vorticity field $\omega(x,y,0)=\omega_0$. This number, denoted by $N$, is defined as the minimum…
We investigate fractional stochastic Navier-Stokes equations in $d\ge 3$, driven by the random force $(-\Delta)^{\frac{\theta}{2}}\xi$ which, as we show, corresponds to a fractional version of the Landau-Lifshitz random force in the physics…
We study a generalization of the Navier-Stokes-Fourier system for an incompressible fluid where the deviatoric part of the Cauchy stress tensor is related to the symmetric part of the velocity gradient via a maximal monotone 2-graph that is…
There are many subtle issues associated with solving the Navier-Stokes equations. In this paper, several of these issues, which have been observed previously in research involving the Navier-Stokes equations, are studied within the…
The Navier-Stokes equations are considered by the use of the method of Lagrangians with covariant derivatives (MLCD) over spaces with affine connections and metrics. It is shown that the Euler-Lagrange equations appear as sufficient…
We present data from high-resolution numerical simulations of the Navier-Stokes-$\alpha$ and the Leray-$\alpha$ models for two-dimensional turbulence. It was shown previously (Lunasin et al., J. Turbulence, 8, (2007), 751-778), that for…
This paper is based on a formulation of the Navier-Stokes equations developed by P. Constantin and the first author (\texttt{arxiv:math.PR/0511067}, to appear), where the velocity field of a viscous incompressible fluid is written as the…
The low Mach number limit for classical solutions to the full Navier Stokes equations is here studied. The combined effects of large temperature variations and thermal conduction are accounted. In particular we consider general initial…
A new approach to the stochastic theory of turbulence is suggested. The coloured noise that is present in the stochastic Navier-Stokes equation is generated from the delta-correlated noise allowing us to avoid the nonlocal field theory as…
Intermittency phenomena are known to be among the main reasons why Kolmogorov's theory of fully developed Turbulence is not in accordance with several experimental results. This is why some \emph{fractal} statistical models have been…
The random forced Navier-Stokes equation can be obtained as a variational problem of a proper action. By virtue of incompressibility, the integration over transverse components of the fields allows to cast the action in the form of a large…
