We consider fluid flows, governed by the Navier-Stokes equations, subject to a steady symmetry-breaking bifurcation and forced by a weak noise acting on a slow time scale. By generalizing the multiple-scale weakly nonlinear expansion…

We study incompressible Navier--Stokes flows in~$\R^d$ with small and well localized data and external force~$f$. We establish pointwise estimates for large~$|x|$ of the form \hbox{$c_t|x|^{-d}\le |u(x,t)|\le c'_t|x|^{-d}$}, where $c_t>0$…
We introduce a modified version of the two-dimensional Navier-Stokes equation, preserving energy and momentum of inertia, which is motivated by the occurrence of different dissipation time scales and related to the gradient flow structure…
The transition of the flow in a duct of square cross-section is studied. Like in the similar case of the pipe flow, the motion is linearly stable for all Reynolds numbers; this flow is thus a good candidate to investigate the 'bypass' path…
An effort has been made to solve the Cauchy problem of the Navier-Stokes equations in the whole space by two methods. It is proved that the sum of the three vorticity components is a time-invariant in fluid motion. It has been proved that,…
