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…
We present a Lagrange--Galerkin scheme free from numerical quadrature for the Navier--Stokes equations. Our idea is to use a locally linearized velocity and the backward Euler method in finding the position of fluid particle at the previous…
Employing a phase space which includes the (Riemann-Liouville) fractional derivative of curves evolving on real space, we develop a restricted variational principle for Lagrangian systems yielding the so-called restricted fractional…
In this second part of the paper, we consider finite difference Lagrangians which are invariant under linear and projective actions of $SL(2)$, and the linear equi-affine action which preserves area in the plane. We first find the…
We take a careful look at two approaches to deriving stability criteria for ideal MHD equilibria. One is based on a tedious analysis of the linearized equations of motion, while the other examines the second variation of the MHD Hamiltonian…
The Lagrangian, multi-dimensional, ideal, compressible gasdynamic equations are written in a multi-symplectic form, in which the Lagrangian fluid labels, $m^i$ (the Lagrangian mass coordinates) and time $t$ are the independent variables,…
We study the evolution of a compressible fluid surrounded by vacuum and introduce a new symmetrization in Lagrangian coordinates that allows us to encompass both relativistic and non-relativistic fluid flows. The problem under consideration…
This paper develops a geometric mechanics framework for the reduction of general relativistic hydrodynamic variational principles, from the variation of worldlines approach in 4D spacetime to 3-dimensional Eulerian descriptions. We consider…
We describe the cosmological dynamics of perfect fluids within the framework of effective field theories. The effective action is a derivative expansion whose terms are selected by the symmetry requirements on the relevant long-distance…
The present work investigates the evolution of linear perturbations of time-dependent ideal fluid flows with advected quantities, expressed in terms of the second order variations of the action corresponding to a Lagrangian defined on a…
Exploring the general analytical solutions to the Euler equations for ideal fluids holds significant theoretical and practical importance. The steady flows in two-dimensional spaces are considered whether there is an analytical solution in…
The steady motion of a viscous incompressible fluid in a multiply-connected, planar, bounded domain (perforated with a large number of small holes) is modeled through the Navier-Stokes equations with non-homogeneous Dirichlet boundary data…
Euler and Navier-Stokes have variant systems with dynamical invariance of helicity and thus (weak) topological equivalence, allowing a strong `frozen-in' (to, or, dually, `Lie-carried' by the \textit{virtual} velocity $V$) formulation of…
The Lagrangian velocity structure functions in the inertial range of fully developed fluid turbulence are derived basing on the Navier-Stokes equations. For time $\tau$ much smaller than the correlation time, the structure functions are…
We present a formalism to describe the motion of a fluid that is fully covariant with respect to arbitrary observers. To achieve full covariance, we write prognostic equations for quantities that belong to the graded exterior algebra of the…
Superconformal extensions of the perfect fluid equations, which realize $N=1,2$ Schrodinger superalgebra, are constructed within the Hamiltonian formalism. They are built by introducing real (for $N=1$) or complex (for $N=2$) anticommuting…
This work is devoted to the long-standing open problem of homogenization of 2D perfect incompressible fluid flows, such as the 2D Euler equations with impermeable inclusions modeling a porous medium, and such as the lake equations. The main…
A remarkable feature of fluid dynamics is its relationship with classical dynamics and statistical mechanics. This has motivated in the past mathematical investigations concerning, in a special way, the "derivation" based on kinetic theory,…
We demonstrate that a sufficiently smooth solution of the relativistic Euler equations that represents a dynamical compact liquid body, when expressed in Lagrangian coordinates, determines a solution to a system of non-linear wave equations…
Equations of fluid dynamics are formulated, which hold invariant under the action of the l-conformal Galilei group. They include the conventional continuity equation, a higher order material derivative analogue of the Euler equation, and a…
