Turbulence in active fluids caused by self-propulsion

Analysis of PDEs 2018-02-06 v1

Abstract

A rigoros analytical justification of turbulence observed in active fluids and caused by self-propulsion is presented. We prove existence of unstable wave modes for the generalized Stokes and Navier-Stokes systems by developing an approach in spaces of Fourier transformed Radon measures.
