In this paper, we consider a family of one-dimensional fourth order evolution equations arising as gradient flows of the Korteweg energy, i.e. the $L^2$-norm of the first derivative of some power of the density. This family of equations…

We consider energy conservation in a two-dimensional incompressible and inviscid flow through weak solutions of the filtered-Euler equations, which describe a regularized Euler flow based on a spatial filtering. We show that the energy…

We consider an abstract functional-differential equation derived from the pressure-less Euler system with variable coefficients that includes several systems of partial differential equations arising in the fluid mechanics. Using the method…

We establish effective existence and uniqueness for the heat flow on time-dependent Riemannian manifolds, under minimal assumptions tailored towards the study of Ricci flow through singularities. The main point is that our estimates only…

In this article, we study the the harmonic map heat flow from a manifold with conic singularities to a closed manifold. In particular, we have proved the short time existence and uniqueness of solutions as well as the existence of global…

In this paper, we prove the energy conservation for the weak solutions of the compressible Navier-Stokes equations for any time $t>0$, under certain conditions. The results hold for the renormalized solutions of the equations with constant…

Heat transport in one-dimensional (1D) momentum-conserving lattices is generally assumed to be anomalous, thus yielding a power-law divergence of thermal conductivity with system length. However, whether heat transport in two-dimensional…

A method is presented for making finite Fourier mode truncations of the Rayleigh--Benard convection system that preserve invariants of the full partial differential equations in the dissipationless limit. These truncations are shown to have…

By employing the equations of mean-square vorticity (enstrophy) fluctuations in strong shear flows, we demonstrate that unlike energy production of turbulent vorticity in nonrotating shear flows, the turbulent vorticity of weak convection…

We consider random walks on $\Z^d$ among nearest-neighbor random conductances which are i.i.d., positive, bounded uniformly from above but whose support extends all the way to zero. Our focus is on the detailed properties of the paths of…

Anomalous large thermal conductivity has been observed numerically and experimentally in one and two dimensional systems. All explicitly solvable microscopic models proposed to date did not explain this phenomenon and there is an open…

We analyze the problem for viscous incompressible heat-conduc\-ting fluid in a finite cylinder with large inflow and outflow, modelled with Navier-Stokes equations coupled with the heat equation. We prove energy estimate without…

We show the existence and uniqueness as well as boundedness of weak solutions to linear elliptic equations with $L^2$-drifts of negative divergence and singular zero-order terms which are positive. Our main target is to show the…

We present a dynamic van der Waals theory. It is useful to study phase separation when the temperature varies in space. We show that if heat flow is applied to liquid suspending a gas droplet at zero gravity, a convective flow occurs such…

The AC power flow equations are fundamental in all aspects of power systems planning and operations. They are routinely solved using Newton-Raphson like methods. However, there is little theoretical understanding of when these algorithms…

We calculate the electronic contribution to the thermal conductance in a quantum dot that is weakly coupled via tunnel barriers to two electrons reservoirs. A linear response model is derived for the calculation of the heat current Q…

A key quantity characterizing a time-periodically forced quantum system coupled to a heat bath is the energy flowing in the steady state through the system into the bath, where it is dissipated. We derive a general expression which allows…

We present convincing evidence of a direct connection between the pressure drop, viscous dissipation, and the turbulent energy spectrum. We use this finding to explain Nikuradse's experimental results of pressure drop for turbulent flows in…

The eventual concavity properties are useful to characterize geometric properties of the final state of solutions to parabolic equations. In this paper we give characterizations of the eventual concavity properties of the heat flow for…

In this paper we consider the polyharmonic heat flow of a closed curve in the plane. Our main result is that closed initial data with initially small normalised oscillation of curvature and isoperimetric defect flows exponentially fast in…
