On the blow up criterion for the 2-D compressible Navier-Stokes equations

Motivated by [10], we prove that the upper bound of the density function j9 controls the finite time blow up of the classical solutions to the 2-D compressible isentropic Navier-Stokes equations. This result generalizes the corresponding result in [3] concerning the regularities to the weak solutions of the 2-D compressible Navier-Stokes equations in the periodic domain.     

Convergence to rarefaction waves for the nonlinear Boltzmann equation and compressible Navier-Stokes equations

The main purpose of this paper is to study the asymptotic equivalence of the Boltzmann equation for the hard-sphere collision model to its corresponding Euler equations of compressible gas dynamics in the limit of small mean free path. When the fluid flow is a smooth rarefaction (or centered rarefaction) wave with finite strength, the corresponding Boltzmann solution exists globally in time, and the solution converges to the rarefaction wave uniformly for all time (or away from t=0) as ?→0. A decomposition of a Boltzmann solution into its macroscopic (fluid) part and microscopic (kinetic) part is adopted to rewrite the Boltzmann equation in a form of compressible Navier-Stokes equations with source terms. In this setting, the same asymptotic equivalence of the full compressible Navier-Stokes equations to its corresponding Euler equations in the limit of small viscosity and heat conductivity (depending on the viscosity) is also obtained.     

Zero dissipation limit to a Riemann solution consisting of two shock waves for the 1D compressible isentropic Navier-Stokes equations

We investigate the zero dissipation limit problem of the one-dimensional compressible isentropic Navier-Stokes equations with Riemann initial data in the case of the composite wave of two shock waves.It is shown that the unique solution to the Navier-Stokes equations exists for all time,and converges to the Riemann solution to the corresponding Euler equations with the same Riemann initial data uniformly on the set away from the shocks,as the viscosity vanishes.In contrast to previous related works,where either the composite wave is absent or the efects of initial layers are ignored,this gives the frst mathematical justifcation of this limit for the compressible isentropic Navier-Stokes equations in the presence of both composite wave and initial layers.Our method of proof consists of a scaling argument,the construction of the approximate solution and delicate energy estimates.     

Blowup Criteria for Full Compressible Navier-Stokes Equations with Vacuum State

This paper deals with the global strong solution to the three-dimensional(3D) full compressible Navier-Stokes systems with vacuum.The authors provide a sufficient condition which requires that the Sobolev norm of the temperature and some norm of the divergence of the velocity are bounded,for the global regularity of strong solution to the 3D compressible Navier-Stokes equations.This result indicates that the divergence of velocity fields plays a dominant role in the blowup mechanism for the full compressible Navier-Stokes equations in three dimensions.     

Convergence of compressible Navier-Stokes-Maxwell equations to incompressible Navier-Stokes equations

The combined quasi-neutral and non-relativistic limit of compressible Navier-Stokes-Maxwell equations for plasmas is studied. For well-prepared initial data, it is shown that the smooth solution of compressible Navier-Stokes-Maxwell equations converges to the smooth solution of incompressible Navier-Stokes equations by introducing new modulated energy functional.     

Global existence of strong solutions of Navier-Stokes equations with non-Newtonian potential for one-dimensional isentropic compressible fluids

The aim of this paper is to discuss the global existence and uniqueness of strong solution for a class of the isentropic compressible Navier-Stokes equations with non-Newtonian in one-dimensional bounded intervals. We prove two global existence results on strong solutions of the isentropic compressible Navier-Stokes equations. The first result shows only the existence, and the second one shows the existence and uniqueness result based on the first result, but the uniqueness requires some compatibility condition.     

Unique solvability of the periodic Cauchy problem for wave-hierarchy problems with dissipation

Wave-hierarchy problems appear in a variety of applications such as traffic flows, roll waves down an open inclined channel and multiphase flows. Usually, these are described by the compressible Navier-Stokes equations with specific non-linearities; in a fluidized bed model they contain an additional pressure gradient term and are supplemented by an elliptic equation for this unknown pressure. These equations admit solutions periodic in space as well as in time, i.e. periodic travelling waves. Therefore, the corresponding initial value problem with periodic boundary conditions is solved locally in time in appropriate Sobolev spaces. Some remarks are made concerning global solutions, the occurrence of clusters or voids and the bifurcation of time periodic solutions, respectively.     

Space-time discontinuous Galerkin method for the solution of fluid-structure interaction

The paper is concerned with the application of the space-time discontinuous Galerkin method (STDGM) to the numerical solution of the interaction of a compressible flow and an elastic structure. The flow is described by the system of compressible Navier-Stokes equations written in the conservative form. They are coupled with the dynamic elasticity system of equations describing the deformation of the elastic body, induced by the aerodynamical force on the interface between the gas and the elastic structure. The domain occupied by the fluid depends on time. It is taken into account in the Navier-Stokes equations rewritten with the aid of the arbitrary Lagrangian-Eulerian (ALE) method. The resulting coupled system is discretized by the STDGM using piecewise polynomial approximations of the sought solution both in space and time. The developed method can be applied to the solution of the compressible flow for a wide range of Mach numbers and Reynolds numbers. For the simulation of elastic deformations two models are used: the linear elasticity model and the nonlinear neo-Hookean model. The main goal is to show the robustness and applicability of the method to the simulation of the air flow in a simplified model of human vocal tract and the flow induced vocal folds vibrations. It will also be shown that in this case the linear elasticity model is not adequate and it is necessary to apply the nonlinear model.     

Existence of weak solutions to the three-dimensional steady compressible Navier-Stokes equations

We prove the existence of a spatially periodic weak solution to the steady compressible isentropic Navier-Stokes equations in R³ for any specific heat ratio γ>1. The proof is based on the weighted estimates of both pressure and kinetic energy for the approximate system which result in some higher integrability of the density, and the method of weak convergence.     

On the stability of the solutions to the compressible Navier-Stokes equations when the Mach number goes to zero

In this paper an asymptotic stability result is estabilished for the compressible navier-Stokes equations. Since the Mach number tends to zero, the incompressible limit solution of compressible Navier-Stokes equations is proved to be stable exponentially. Some results of Stokes' problem are used.     

The Incompressible Limits of Compressible Navier-Stokes Equations in the Whole Space with General Initial Data

It is showed that, as the Mach number goes to zero, the weak solution of the compressible Navier-Stokes equations in the whole space with general initial data converges to the strong solution of the incompressible Navier-Stokes equations as long as the later exists. The proof of the result relies on the new modulated energy functional and the Strichartz＇s estimate of linear wave equation.     

ZERO DISSIPATION LIMIT OF THE COMPRESSIBLE HEAT-CONDUCTING NAVIER-STOKES EQUATIONS IN HE PRESENCE OF THE SHOCK

The zero dissipation limit of the compressible heat-conducting Navier-Stokes equations in the presence of the shock is investigated. It is shown that when the heat ε→ 0 (see (1.3)), if the solution of the corresponding Euler equations is piecewise smooth with shock wave satisfying the Lax entropy condition, then there exists a smooth solution to the Navier-Stokes equations, which converges to the piecewise smooth shock solution of the Euler equations away from the shock discontinuity at a rate of ε. The proof is given by a combination of the energy estimates and the matched asymptotic analysis introduced in [3].

A note on barotropic compressible quantum Navier-Stokes equations

The global-in-time existence of weak solutions to the barotropic compressible quantum Navier-Stokes equations has been proved very recently, by Jüngel (2009) [1], if the viscosity constant is smaller than the scaled Plank constant. This paper extends the results to the case that the viscosity constant equals the scaled Plank constant. By using a new estimate on the square root of the solution, apparently not available in [1], the semiclassical limit for the viscous quantum Euler equations (which are equivalent to the barotropic compressible quantum Navier-Stokes equations) can be performed; then the results of this paper are obtained easily.     

Existence of solutions and Gevrey class regularity for Leray-alpha equations

In this paper we consider some equations similar to Navier-Stokes equations, the three-dimensional Leray-alpha equations with space periodic boundary conditions. We establish the regularity of the equations by using the classical Faedo-Galerkin method. Our argument shows that there exist an unique weak solution and an unique strong solution for all the time for the Leray-alpha equations, furthermore, the strong solutions are analytic in time with values in the Gevrey class of functions (for the space variable). The relations between the Leray-alpha equations and the Navier-Stokes equations are also considered.     

TIME-PERIODIC ISENTROPIC SUPERSONIC EULER FLOWS IN ONE-DIMENSIONAL DUCTS DRIVING BY PERIODIC BOUNDARY CONDITIONS

We show existence of time-periodic supersonic solutions in a finite interval, after certain start-up time depending on the length of the interval, to the one space-dimensional isentropic compressible Euler equations, subjected to periodic boundary conditions. Both classical solutions and weak entropy solutions, as well as high-frequency limiting behavior are considered. The proofs depend on the theory of Cauchy problems of genuinely nonlinear hyperbolic systems of conservation laws.     

Incompressible limit and stability of all-time solutions to 3-D full Navier-Stokes equations for perfect gases

This paper studies the incompressible limit and stability of global strong solutions to the threedimensional full compressible Navier-Stokes equations, where the initial data satisfy the "well-prepared" conditions and the velocity field and temperature enjoy the slip boundary condition and convective boundary condition, respectively. The uniform estimates with respect to both the Mach number ∈(0, ∈] and time t ∈ [0, ∞) are established by deriving a differential inequality with decay property, where ∈∈(0, 1] is a constant.As the Mach number vanishes, the global solution to full compressible Navier-Stokes equations converges to the one of isentropic incompressible Navier-Stokes equations in t ∈ [0, +∞). Moreover, we prove the exponentially asymptotic stability for the global solutions of both the compressible system and its limiting incompressible system.     

Asymptotic behaviour of the density for one-dimensional Navier-Stokes equations

The existence of a (global in time) solution to the Navier-Stokes equations for barotropic compressible fluids in a bounded interval is already known in the case of vanishing external force field. In this paper we consider these equations for time-independent forces and prove that: (i) there exists a global solution to the usual initial-boundary value problem; (ii) the density of the fluid is bounded and its infimum is greater than zero for infinite time only if the external forces and the pressure satisfy a compatibility condition (which is the same derived in [2] for the existence of a stationary solution having bounded and strictly positive density).     

The Zero Mach Number Limit of the Three-Dimensional Compressible Viscous Magnetohydrodynamic Equations

This paper is concerned with the zero Mach number limit of the three-dimension- al compressible viscous magnetohydrodynamic equations. More precisely, based on the local existence of the three-dimensional compressible viscous magnetohydrodynamic equations, first the convergence-stability principle is established. Then it is shown that, when the Mach number is sufficiently small, the periodic initial value problems of the equations have a unique smooth solution in the time interval, where the incompressible viscous magnetohydrodynamic equations have a smooth solution. When the latter has a global smooth solution, the maximal existence time for the former tends to infinity as the Mach number goes to zero. Moreover, the authors prove the convergence of smooth solutions of the equations towards those of the incompressible viscous magnetohydrodynamic equations with a sharp convergence rate.
