Stretching in continuum mechanics is naturally described using the Cauchy-Green strain tensors. These tensors quantify the Lagrangian stretching experienced by a material element, and provide a powerful way to study processes in turbulent…
A series of numerical experiments is suggested for the three-dimensional Navier-Stokes and Euler equations on a periodic domain based on a set of $L^{2m}$-norms of vorticity $\Omega_{m}$ for $m\geq 1$. These are scaled to form the…
A new discrete-velocity model is presented to solve the three-dimensional Euler equations. The velocities in the model are of an adaptive nature---both the origin of the discrete-velocity space and the magnitudes of the discrete-velocities…
We report results on the geometrical statistics of the vorticity vector obtained from experiments in electromagnetically forced rotating turbulence. A range of rotation rates $\Omega$ is considered, from non-rotating to rapidly rotating…
Attention has been paid to the similarity and duality between the Gregory-Laflamme instability of black strings and the Rayleigh-Plateau instability of extended fluids. In this paper, we derive a set of simple (1+1)-dimensional equations…
The incompressible three-dimensional Euler equations develop very thin pancake-like regions of increasing vorticity. These regions evolve with the scaling $\omega_{max}\sim\ell^{-2/3}$ between the vorticity maximum and the pancake…
Numerical simulations show that microscopic rod-like bodies suspended in a turbulent flow tend to align with the vorticity vector, rather than with the dominant eignevector of the strain-rate tensor. This paper investigates an analytically…
We show that any solution of the two-dimensional Navier-Stokes equation whose vorticity distribution is uniformly bounded in $L^1(R^2)$ for positive times is entirely determined by the trace of the vorticity at $t = 0$, which is a finite…
We consider uniformly rotating incompressible Euler and Navier-Stokes equations. We study the suppression of vertical gradients of Lagrangian displacement ("vertical" refers to the direction of the rotation axis). We employ a formalism that…
We establish the vanishing viscosity limit of the Navier-Stokes equations to the Euler equations for three-dimensional compressible isentropic flow in the whole space. It is shown that there exists a unique regular solution of compressible…
The fluid-gravity correspondence provides us with explicit spacetime metrics that are holographically dual to (non-)relativistic nonlinear hydrodynamics. The vacuum Einstein equations, in the presence of a Killing vector, possess…
We study the 2D Navier--Stokes solution starting from an initial vorticity mildly concentrated near $N$ distinct points in the plane. We prove quantitative estimates on the propagation of concentration near a system of interacting point…
We formulate the flow of thick fluids as evolution variational and quasi-variational inequalities, with a variable threshold on the absolute value of the deformation rate tensor. In the variational case, we show the existence and uniqueness…
We revise the steady vortex surface theory following the recent finding of asymmetric vortex sheets (AM,2021). These surfaces avoid the Kelvin-Helmholtz instability by adjusting their discontinuity and shape. The vorticity collapses to the…
In this paper, we generalize the main results of [1] and [31] to Lorentz spaces, using a simple procedure. The main results are the following. Let $n\geq 3$ and let $u$ be a Leray-Hopf solution to the $n$-dimensional Navier-Stokes equations…
In this paper, we study the isothermal gas dynamics. We first establish the global existence of strong solutions to the one-dimensional isothermal Navier-Stokes system for smooth initial data without any smallness conditions, assuming that…
The flow of incompressible fluid in highly permeable porous media in vorticity - velocity - Bernoulli pressure form leads to a double saddle-point problem in the Navier--Stokes--Brinkman--Forchheimer equations. The paper establishes, for…

We are concerned with the inviscid limit of the Navier-Stokes equations to the Euler equations in $\R^3$. We first observe that a pathwise Kolmogorov hypothesis implies the uniform boundedness of the $\alpha^{th}$-order fractional…
In this paper, we study the convergence of solutions of the $\alpha$-Euler equations to solutions of the Euler equations on the $2$-dimensional torus. In particular, given an initial vorticity $\omega_0$ in $L^p_x$ for $p \in (1,\infty)$,…
