Heuristic derivations of the Navier-Stokes equations are unable to reveal the applicability limits of these equations. In this paper we rederive the Navier-Stokes equations from kinetic theory, using a method that affords a step by step…
We investigate the large-time behavior of solutions toward the combination of the boundary layer and 3-rarefaction waves to the outflow problem for the compressible non-isentropic Navier-Stokes equations coupling with the Maxwell equations…
The NS equation is considered (in 2 & 3 dimensions) with a fixed forcing on large scale; the stationary states form a family of probability distributions on the fluid velocity fields depending on a parameter R (Reynolds number). It is…
The turbulent energy cascade in dilute polymers solution is addressed here by considering a direct numerical simulation of homogeneous isotropic turbulence of a FENE-P fluid in a triply periodic box. On the basis of the DNS data, a scale by…
We study the nature of the triadic interactions in Fourier space for three-dimensional Navier-Stokes equations based on the helicity content of the participating modes. Using the tool of helical Fourier decomposition we are able to access…
This paper introduces a new robust formulation for local correlation-based laminar-to-turbulent transition models. This mechanism is incorporated into Reynolds-Averaged Navier-Stokes (RANS) equations, coupled with the Spalart-Allmaras (SA)…
We address the global-in-time existence, stability and long time behaviour of weak solutions of the three-dimensional compressible Navier-Stokes equations with potential force. We show the details of the $\alpha$-dependence of different…
The unit of nonlinear interaction in Navier-Stokes and the Magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) equations is a wavenumber triad ({\bf k,p,q}) satisfying ${\bf k+p+q=0}$. The expression for the combined energy transfer from two of these wavenumbers to…
We analyze the statistical properties of three-dimensional ($3d$) turbulence in a rotating fluid. To this end we introduce a generating functional to study the statistical properties of the velocity field $\bf v$. We obtain the master…
The present work studies the isotropic and homogeneous turbulence for incompressible fluids through a specific Lyapunov analysis, assuming that the turbulence is due to the bifurcations associated to the velocity field. The analysis…
Large-time behavior of solutions to the inflow problem of full compressible Navier-Stokes equations is investigated on the half line $R^+ =(0,+\infty)$. The wave structure which contains four waves: the transonic(or degenerate) boundary…
Developed turbulent motion of fluid still lacks an analytical description despite more than a century of active research. Nowadays phenomenological ideas are widely used in practical applications, such as small-scale closures for numerical…
Navier-Stokes turbulence subject to solid-body rotation is studied by high-resolution direct numerical simulations (DNS) of freely decaying and stationary flows. Setups characterized by different Rossby numbers are considered. In agreement…
We introduce a model for the turbulent energy cascade aimed at studying the effect of dynamical scaling on intermittency. In particular, we show that by slowing down the energy transfer mechanism for fixed energy flux, intermittency…
A new transient regime in the relaxation towards absolute equilibrium of the conservative and time-reversible 3-D Euler equation with high-wavenumber spectral truncation is characterized. Large-scale dissipative effects, caused by the…
We present a new application of Lagrangian Perturbation Theory (LPT): the stability analysis of fluid flows. As a test case that demonstrates the framework we focus on the plane Couette flow. The incompressible Navier-Stokes equation is…
We consider the incompressible Navier-Stokes equations in the cylinder $\R \times \T$, with no exterior forcing, and we investigate the long-time behavior of solutions arising from merely bounded initial data. Although we do not know if…
We analyze the physical meaning of fluctuations of the phase space contraction rate, that we also call entropy creation rate, and its observability in space-time intermittency phenomena. For concreteness we consider a Navier-Stokes fluid.
We address the experimentally observed non-Gaussian fluctuations for the energy injected into a closed turbulent flow at fixed Reynolds number. We propose that the power fluctuations mirror the internal kinetic energy fluctuations. Using a…
We inquire the statistical properties of the pair formed by the Navier-Stokes equation for an incompressible velocity field and the advection-diffusion equation for a scalar field transported in the same flow in two dimensions (2d). The…
