The present is a companion paper to "A contemporary look at Hermann Hankel's 1861 pioneering work on Lagrangian fluid dynamics" by Frisch, Grimberg and Villone (2017). Here we present the English translation of the 1861 prize manuscript…
Two prized papers, one by Augustin Cauchy in 1815, presented to the French Academy and the other by Hermann Hankel in 1861, presented to G\"ottingen University, contain major discoveries on vorticity dynamics whose impact is now quickly…
We suggest the Hamiltonian approach for fluid mechanics based on the dynamics, formulated in terms of Lagrangian variables. The construction of the canonical variables of the fluid sheds a light of the origin of Clebsh variables, introduced…
In 1966, Arnold [1] showed that the Lagrangian flow of ideal incompressible fluids (described by Euler equations) coincide with the geodesic flow on the manifold of volume preserving diffeomorphisms of the fluid domain. Arnold's proof and…
The variational theory of the perfect hypermomentum fluid is developed. The new type of the generalized Frenkel condition is considered. The Lagrangian density of such fluid is stated, and the equations of motion of the fluid and the…
The formulation of a dynamical theory of General Relativity, including matter, is viewed as a problem of coupling Einstein's theory of pure gravity, formulated as an action principle, to an independently chosen and well defined field theory…
This is an adapatation by U. Frisch of an English translation by Thomas E. Burton of Euler's memoir `Principes g\'en\'eraux du mouvement des fluides' (Euler, 1775b). Burton's translation appeared in Fluid Dynamics, 34} (1999) pp. 801-82,…
Geometric Hydrodynamics has flourished ever since the celebrated 1966 paper of V. Arnold. In this paper we present a collection of open problems along with several new constructions in fluid dynamics and a concise survey of recent…
Hamiltonian variational principles provided, since 60s, the means of developing very successful wave theories for nonlinear free-surface flows, under the assumption of irrotationality. This success, in conjunction with the recognition that…
The variational theory of the perfect hypermomentum fluid is developed. The new type of the generalized Frenkel condition is considered. The Lagrangian density of such fluid is stated, and the equations of motion of the fluid and the…
The barotropic ideal fluid with step and delta-function discontinuities coupled to Einstein's gravity is studied. The discontinuities represent star surfaces and thin shells; only non-intersecting discontinuity hypersurfaces are considered.…
This is an English translation of Euler's article "Principia motus fluidorum" in which the Euler equation (in two three dimensions) has been established for the first time in 1752. The actual publication has been delayed by nine years.…
Classical relativistic field theory is applied to perfect and magneto-hydrodynamic flows. The fields for Hamilton's principle are shown to be the Lagrangian coordinates of the fluid elements, which are potentials for the matter current…
This is a translation from Latin to Portuguese of Euler's 'Attempt at a theory of the friction of fluids'. According to the records, a treatise by Euler with the title 'Tentamen theoriae de frictione fluidorum' was presented to the St.…
The variational principle for the special and general relativistic hydrodynamics are discussed in view of its application to obtain approximate solutions to these problems. We show that effective Lagrangians can be obtained for suitable…
This paper presents an annotated English translation of Daniel Bernoulli's 1727 work A New Theory on the Motion of Waters through Channels of Any Kind, originally published in the Commentarii Academiae Scientiarum Imperialis Petropolitanae.…
The connection is established between two different action principles for perfect fluids in the context of general relativity. For one of these actions, $S$, the fluid four--velocity is expressed as a sum of products of scalar fields and…
The paper reports the recent results on application and extension of the matrix formulation of lagrangian hydrodynamic equations. The matrix approach is based on the notion of continuous deformation of infinitesimal material elements and…
The variational theory of the perfect fluid with intrinsic spin and dilatonic charge (dilaton-spin fluid) is developed. The spin tensor obeys the classical Frenkel condition. The Lagrangian density of such fluid is stated, and the equations…
This paper provides global formulations of Lagrangian and Hamiltonian variational dynamics evolving on the product of an arbitrary number of two-spheres. Four types of Euler-Lagrange equations and Hamilton's equations are developed in a…
