We consider Newton's problem of minimal resistance, in particular we address the problem arising in the limit if the height goes to infinity. We establish existence of solutions and lack radial symmetry of solutions. Moreover, we show that…

Newton's problem of the body of minimal aerodynamic resistance is traditionally stated in the class of {\it convex} axially symmetric bodies with fixed length and width. We state and solve the minimal resistance problem in the wider class…

We study the Newton-like problem of minimal resistance for a two-dimensional body moving with constant velocity in a homogeneous rarefied medium of moving particles. The distribution of the particles over velocities is centrally symmetric.…

We study the problem of minimal resistance for a body moving with constant velocity in a rarefied medium of chaotically moving point particles, in Euclidean space R^d. The particles distribution over velocities is radially symmetric. Under…

We consider the following problem: minimize the functional $\int_\Omega f(\nabla u(x))\, dx$ in the class of concave functions $u: \Omega \to [0,M]$, where $\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^2$ is a convex body and $M > 0$. If $f(x) = 1/(1 +…

A famous result by Delort about the two-dimensional incompressible Euler equations is the existence of weak solutions when the initial vorticity is a diffuse bounded Radon measure with distinguished sign. In this paper we are interested in…

This paper investigates the nonlinear dynamics of Newton's problem of minimal resistance in radial fields. We move beyond classical translational symmetry to analyze two non-equilibrium scenarios: a scale-invariant free expansion and an…

A parallel flow of non-interacting point particles is incident on a body at rest. When hitting the body's surface, the particles are reflected elastically. Assume that each particle hits the body at most once (SIC condition); then the force…

Since its original formulation by Isaac Newton in 1685, the problem of determining bodies of minimal resistance moving through a fluid has been one of the classical problems in the calculus of variations. Initially posed for cylindrically…

Newton's problem of minimal resistance is one of the first problems of optimal control: it was proposed, and its solution given, by Isaac Newton in his masterful Principia Mathematica, in 1686. The problem consists of determining, in…

The problem considered first by I. Newton (1687) consists in finding a surface of the minimal frontal resistance in a parallel flow of non-interacting point particles. The standard formulation assumes that the surface is convex with a given…

We extend Newton's problem of minimal resistance to the Lorentz-Minkowski space. We derive the functional energy and determine the Euler-Lagrange equation. In contrast to the Euclidean case, this equation is quasilinear elliptic, and thus,…

Exact solutions of a classical problem of a plane unsteady potential flow of an ideal incompressible fluid with a free boundary are presented. The fluid occupies a semi-infinite strip bounded by the free surface (from above) and (from the…

Let $u$ minimize the functional $F(u) = \int_\Omega f(\nabla u(x))\, dx$ in the class of convex functions $u : \Omega \to {\mathbb R}$ satisfying $0 \le u \le M$, where $\Omega \subset {\mathbb R}^2$ is a compact convex domain with nonempty…

We consider the motion of several solids in a bounded cavity filled with a perfect incompressible fluid, in two dimensions. The solids move according to Newton's law, under the influence of the fluid's pressure, and the fluid dynamics is…

We consider density solutions for gradient flow equations of the form $u_t = \nabla \cdot ( \gamma(u) \nabla \mathrm N(u))$, where $\mathrm N$ is the Newtonian repulsive potential in the whole space $\mathbb R^d$ with the nonlinear convex…

We prove a regularity result for the unstable elliptic free boundary problem $\Delta u = -\chi_{\{u>0\}}$ related to traveling waves in a problem arising in solid combustion. The maximal solution and every local minimizer of the energy are…

In this paper, we study the steady solutions of Euler-Poisson equations in bounded domains with prescribed angular velocity. This models a rotating Newtonian star consisting of a compressible perfect fluid with given equation of state…

We extend Newton's problem of minimal resistance to Riemannian surfaces endowed with a geodesic coordinate system, which includes the two-dimensional space forms such as the sphere and the hyperbolic plane. Assuming that the fluid particles…

We characterize the solution to the Newton minimal resistance problem in a class of radial q-concave profiles. We also give the corresponding result for one-dimensional profiles. Moreover, we provide a numerical optimization algorithm for…
