Consider an exterior space-time domain where the incompressible Navier-Stokes equation and continuity equation hold with no bodies or force fields present, and smooth velocity at initial time. This is equivalent to the velocity being…
The NS equation is considered (in 2 & 3 dimensions) with a fixed forcing on large scale; the stationary states form a family of probability distributions on the fluid velocity fields depending on a parameter R (Reynolds number). It is…
The Navier-Stokes equations in the primitive formulation for incompressible flow describe the evolution of velocity and pressure, without recourse to vorticity. We show that, beyond the finite Leray-Hopf regularity interval, every…
We propose a two-dimensional flow model of a viscous fluid between two close moving surfaces. We show that its asymptotic behavior, when the distance between the two surfaces tends to zero, is the same as that of the the Navier-Stokes…
For a local suitable weak solution to the Navier-Stokes equations, we prove that if the vorticity vectors belong to a double cone in regions of high vorticity magnitude, then the solution is regular. Roughly speaking this implies that, near…
Smooth solutions of the stationary Navier-Stokes equations in an infinitely long pipe, equipped with the Navier-slip or Navier-Hodge-Lions boundary condition, are considered in this paper. Three main results are presented. First, when…
We study the long-time behaviour of axisymmetric solutions without swirl for the threedimensional Navier-Stokes equations in the whole space. Assuming that the initial vorticity is sufficiently localised, we compute explicitly the leading…
We consider the incompressible axisymmetric Navier-Stokes equations with swirl as an idealized model for tornado-like flows. Assuming an infinite vortex line which interacts with a boundary surface resembles the tornado core, we look for…
In this paper we construct two families of initial data being arbitrarily large under any scaling-invariant norm for which their corresponding weak solution to the three-dimensional Navier-Stokes equations become smooth on either $[0,T_1]$…
A few basic, intuitive, properties of the Navier-Stokes system of equations for incompressible fluid flows are discussed in this paper. We present a rephrased interpretation of the Navier-Stokes equation in a space having an arbitrary…
We analyze the two-dimensional incompressible Navier-Stokes equations on a smooth, bounded domain with Navier boundary conditions. Starting from an initial vorticity in $L^p$ with $p>2$, we show strong convergence of the vorticity in the…
We study the incompressible Navier-Stokes equations in the two-dimensional strip $\mathbb{R} \times [0,L]$, with periodic boundary conditions and no exterior forcing. If the initial velocity is bounded, we prove that the solution remains…
In this work we investigate the question of preventing the three-dimensional, incompressible Navier-Stokes equations from developing singularities, by controlling one component of the velocity field only, in space-time scale invariant…
We consider the motion of incompressible viscous fluids bounded above by a free surface and below by a solid surface in the $N$-dimensional Euclidean space for $N\geq 2$ when the gravity is not taken into account. The aim of this paper is…
We report results on the behavior of a particular incompressible Navier-Stokes (NS) flow in the whole space $\R^{3}$, related to the complex singular solutions introduced by Li and Sinai in \cite{LiSi08} that blow up at a finite time. The…
We study the asymptotic behavior of solutions to the steady Navier-Stokes equations outside of an infinite cylinder in $\mathbb{R}^3$. We assume that the flow is periodic in $x_3$-direction and has no swirl. This problem is closely related…
We study the two-dimensional stationary Navier-Stokes equations describing flows around a rotating disk. The existence of unique solutions is established for any rotating speed, and qualitative effects of a large rotation are described…
We consider surface finite elements and a semi-implicit time stepping scheme to simulate fluid deformable surfaces. Such surfaces are modeled by incompressible surface Navier-Stokes equations with bending forces. Here, we consider closed…
This paper introduces the fundamental continuum theory governing momentum transport in isotropic nanofluidic flows. The theory is an extension to the classical Navier-Stokes equation, which includes coupling between translational and…
A combined incompressible and vanishing capillarity limit in the barotropic compressible Navier-Stokes equations for smooth solutions is proved. The equations are considered on the two-dimensional torus with well prepared initial data. The…
