Polymer additives can substantially reduce the drag of turbulent flows and the upper limit, the so called "maximum drag reduction" (MDR) asymptote is universal, i.e. independent of the type of polymer and solvent used. Until recently, the…
The volume-filtering of the Navier-Stokes equations allows to consider the effect that particles have on the fluid without further assumptions, but closures arise of which the implications are not fully understood. In the present paper, we…
We consider the motion of an incompressible viscous fluid on a compact Riemannian manifold $\sM$ with boundary. The motion on $\sM$ is modeled by the incompressible Navier-Stokes equations, and the fluid is subject to pure or partial slip…
We study the initial-boundary value problem of the Navier-Stokes equations for incompressible fluids in a general domain in $\R^n$ with compact and smooth boundary, subject to the kinematic and vorticity boundary conditions on the non-flat…
In my PhD thesis I show the existence of global-in-time weak solutions for a Navier-Stokes fluid interacting with a linearly elastic shell of Koiter type. This is achieved by the introduction of a new method for showing the compactness of…
We consider the Navier-Stokes system describing the time evolution of a compressible barotropic fluid confined to a bounded spatial domain in the 3-D physical space, supplemented with the Navier's slip boundary conditions. It is shown that…
We analyse bead--spring polymers coupled to Navier--Stokes turbulence in ultra--dilute solutions at Weissenberg number \(Wi\approx 80\). The polymers do not alter the large-scale turbulent structure, but hydrodynamic interactions generate…
Using a dynamic Surface Force Apparatus, we demonstrate that the notion of slip length used to describe the boundary flow of simple liquids, is not appropriate for viscoelastic liquids. Rather, the appropriate description lies in the…
In this paper we study the Navier-Stokes equations with a Navier-type boundary condition that has been proposed as an alternative to common near wall models. The boundary condition we study, involving a linear relation between the…
The present contribution investigates the well-posedness of a PDE system describing the evolution of a nematic liquid crystal flow under kinematic transports for molecules of different shapes. More in particular, the evolution of the {\em…
In this paper we investigate the issue of the inviscid limit for the compressible Navier-Stokes system in an impermeable fixed bounded domain. We consider two kinds of boundary conditions. The first one is the no-slip condition. In this…
In this paper we study the dimension reduction limits of the compressible Navier--Stokes equations over product Riemannian manifolds $\mathcal{O}_\epsilon \cong \mathcal{M} \times \epsilon\mathcal{F}$, such that $\dim\,(\mathcal{M})=n$ and…
We consider the motion of a compressible, viscous, and heat conducting fluid in the regime of small viscosity and heat conductivity. It is shown that weak solutions of the associated Navier- Stokes-Fourier system converge to a (strong)…
In this paper we investigate the stress concentration problem that occurs when two convex rigid particles are closely immersed in a fluid flow. The governing equations for the fluid flow are the stationary incompressible Navier-Stokes…
We study a generalization of the Navier-Stokes-Fourier system for an incompressible fluid where the deviatoric part of the Cauchy stress tensor is related to the symmetric part of the velocity gradient via a maximal monotone 2-graph that is…
We study the conformation and dynamics of a single polymer chain that is pulled by a constant force applied at its one end with the other end free. Such a situation is relevant to the growing technology of manipulating individual…
We propose a method to stabilise a solution to equations describing the interface of thin liquid films falling under gravity with a finite number of actuators and restricted observations. As for many complex systems, full observation of the…
We study traveling wave solutions to the free boundary problem associated to a generalized Navier-Stokes Fourier system, which models a viscous, incompressible, heat-conducting fluid. The fluid is assumed to occupy a horizontally infinite…
The existence of large-data weak solutions to a steady compressible Navier-Stokes-Fourier system for chemically reacting fluid mixtures is proved. General free energies are considered satisfying some structural assumptions, with a pressure…
We consider the Navier-Stokes equation in a domain with irregular boundaries. The irregularity is modeled by a spatially homogeneous random process, with typical size $\eps \ll 1$. In a parent paper, we derived a homogenized boundary…
