This paper provides a rigorous mathematical analysis of the global regularity problem for the 3D incompressible Navier-Stokes (NS) equations, specifically addressing the conditions under which smooth initial data may lead to a loss of…

A new formulation of the Navier-Stokes equation, in terms of the gradient of the total mechanical energy, is derived for the time-averaged flows, and the singular point possibly existing in the Navier-Stokes equation is exactly found.…

Singularity of Navier-Stokes equations is uncovered for the first time which explains the mechanism of transition of a smooth laminar flow to turbulence. It is found that when an inflection point is formed on the velocity profile in…

Based on Dou Huashu's energy gradient theory, this paper focuses on the weak singularity of the incompressible Navier-Stokes (NS) equations in steady, fully developed flows. When the gradient of total mechanical energy is perpendicular to…

In the laminar mode interactions among molecules generate friction between layers of water that slide with respect to each other. This friction triggers the shear stress, which is traditionally presumed to be linearly proportional to the…

A central obstacle to understanding the route to turbulence in wall-bounded flows is that the flows are composed of complex, highly fluctuating, and strongly nonlinear states. In the case of pipe flow, models have deepened our understanding…

Experiments (Mullin and Kreswell, 2005) show that transition to turbulence can start at Reynolds numbers lower than it is predicted by the linear stability analysis - the subcritical transition to turbulence. To explain these observations…

Turbulent flows governed by the Navier-Stokes equations (NSE) generate an out-of-equilibrium time irreversible energy cascade from large to small scales. In the NSE, the energy transfer is due to the nonlinear terms that are formally…

A simplified Lagrangean closure for the Navier-Stokes equation is used to study the production of intermittency in the inertial range of three dimensional turbulence. This is done using localized wavepackets following the fluid rather than…

One promising decomposition of turbulent dynamics is that into building blocks such as equilibrium and periodic solutions and orbits connecting these. While the numerical approximation of such building blocks is feasible for flows in small…

The laminar-to-turbulent transition remains a fundamental and enduring challenge in fluid mechanics. Its complexity arises from the intrinsic nonlinearity and extreme sensitivity to external disturbances. This transition is critical in a…

This article offers a modern perspective which exposes the many contributions of Leray in his celebrated work on the Navier--Stokes equations from 1934. Although the importance of his work is widely acknowledged, the precise contents of his…

Exploring the possibility of describing a fluid flow via a time-reversible equation and its relevance for the fluctuations statistics in stationary turbulent (or laminar) incompressible Navier-Stokes flows.

We consider the compressible Navier-Stokes-Fourier system on time-dependent domains with prescribed motion of the boundary, supplemented with slip boundary conditions for the velocity. Assuming that the pressure can be decomposed into an…

We consider a family of Leray-$\alpha$ models with periodic boundary conditions in three space dimensions. Such models are a regularization, with respect to a parameter $\theta$, of the Navier-Stokes equations. In particular, they share…

Viscous flows through pipes and channels are steady and ordered until, with increasing velocity, the laminar motion catastrophically breaks down and gives way to turbulence. How this apparently discontinuous change from low- to…

Two related open problems in the theory of 3D Navier-Stokes turbulence are discussed in this paper. The first is the phenomenon of intermittency in the dissipation field. Dissipation-range intermittency was first discovered experimentally…

We prove space-time decay estimates of suitable weak solutions to the Navier-Stokes Cauchy problem, corresponding to a given asymptotic behavior of the initial data of the same order of decay. We use two main tools. The first is a result…

This paper concerns the existence of global weak solutions \`a la Leray for compressible Navier-Stokes equations with a pressure law that depends on the density and on time and space variables $t$ and $x$. The assumptions on the pressure…

The study is devoted to the development of new effective tools and methods of ana-lytical hydrodynamics, including problems of existence, smoothness and structure of laminar and turbulent flows. The main problem is complex Navier-Stokes…
