A mixed problem for the steady Navier–Stokes equations

We consider a mixed boundary problem for the Navier–Stokes equations in a bounded Lipschitz two-dimensional domain: we assign a Dirichlet condition on the curve portion of the boundary and a slip zero condition on its straight portion. We prove that the problem has a solution provided the boundary datum and the body force belong to a Lebesgue’s space and to the Hardy space respectively.     

Analysis of hybrid discontinuous Galerkin methods for linearized Navier–Stokes equations

In this article, we introduce and analyze arbitrary-order, locally conservative hybrid discontinuous Galkerin methods for linearized Navier–Stokes equations. The unknowns of the global system are reduced to trace variables on the skeleton of a triangulation and the average of pressure on each cell via embedded static condensation. We prove that the lifting operator associated with trace variables is injective for any polynomial degree. This generalizes the result in (Y. Jeon and E.-J. Park, Numerische Mathematik 123 [2013], no. 1, pp. 97–119), where quadratic and cubic rectangular elements are analyzed. Moreover, optimal error estimates in the energy norm are obtained by introducing nonstandard projection operators for the hybrid DG method. Several numerical results are presented to show the performance of the algorithm and to validate the theory developed in the article.     

Leray’s problem on the stationary Navier–Stokes equations with inhomogeneous boundary data

Consider the stationary Navier–Stokes equations in a bounded domain whose boundary consists of multi-connected components. We investigate the solvability under the general flux condition which implies that the total sum of the flux of the given data on each component of the boundary is equal to zero. Based on our Helmholtz–Weyl decomposition, we prove existence of solutions if the harmonic part of the solenoidal extension of the given boundary data is sufficiently small in L ³ compared with the viscosity constant. Dedicated to Professor Giovanni P. Galdi on the occasion of his 60th birthday.     

On the nonstationary linearized Navier–Stokes problem in domains with cylindrical outlets to infinity

The nonstationary linearized Navier–Stokes system is studied in the domain with cylindrical outlets to infinity in weighted function spaces with an exponential weight function. It is proved that under natural compatibility conditions there exists a unique solution with prescribed fluxes over the sections of outlets to infinity that exponentially tends in each outlet to the corresponding nonstationary Poiseuille flow.Mathematics Subject classification (1991): 35Q30     

Inhomogeneous boundary value problem for nonstationary compressible Navier–Stokes equations

The existence of global weak renormalized solutions to the evolution flow problems for compressible Navier–Stokes equations is established. The in/out flow problem in a bounded domain in three spatial dimensions is considered. A general mathematical theory for the flow problem is developed. Bibliography: 15 titles.     

Inverse boundary spectral problem for non–selfadjoint maxwells–s equations with incomplete data

The inverse boundary spectral problem for selfadjoint Maxwell–s equations is to reconstruct unknown coefficient functions in Maxwell– equations from the knowledge of the boundary spectral data, i.e. fromt eh eigenvalues and the boudnary value of the eigenfunctions. Since the spectrum of non–selfadjoint Maxwell–s operator consists of normal eigenvalues and an interval, the complete boundary spectral data can be defind only in a very complicated way. In this article we show that the coefficients can be reconstructed from incomplete data, that is, from the large eigenvalues and the boundary values of the generalized eigenfunctions. Particularly, we do not need the nfinit–dimensional data corresponding to the non–discrete spectrum.     

On a problem for the Navier–Stokes equations with the infinite Dirichlet integral

We study existence of global in time solutions to the Navier–Stokes equations in a two dimensional domain with an unbounded boundary. The problem is considered with slip boundary conditions involving nonzero friction. The main result shows a new L-bound on the vorticity. A key element of the proof is the maximum principle for a reformulation of the problem. Under some restrictions on the curvature of the boundary and the friction the result for large data (including flux) with the infinite Dirichlet integral is obtained.Received: October 31, 2002; revised: September 17, 2003

Inviscid limit for Navier–Stokes equations in domains with permeable boundaries

This work is concerned with 2D-Navier Stokes equations in a multiply-connected bounded domain with permeable walls. The permeability is described by a Navier type condition. Our aim is to show that the inviscid limit is a solution of the Euler equations, satisfying the Navier type condition on the inflow zone of the walls.     

Boundary layer problem: Navier–Stokes equations and Euler equations

This work is concerned with the boundary layer turbulence, which is an outstanding problem in fluid mechanics. We consider an incompressible viscous fluid in 2D domains with permeable walls. The permeability is described by the Yudovich condition. The goal of the article is to study the fluid behavior at vanishing viscosity (large Reynold’s numbers). We show that the vanishing viscous limit is a solution of the Euler equations with the Yudovich condition on the inflow region of the boundary.     

Solving the Dirichlet problem for Navier–Stokes equations by probabilistic approach

We construct a number of layer methods for Navier-Stokes equations (NSEs) with no-slip boundary conditions. The methods are obtained using probabilistic representations of solutions to NSEs and exploiting ideas of the weak sense numerical integration of stochastic differential equations. Despite their probabilistic nature, the proposed methods are nevertheless deterministic.     

Exact controllability in projections for three-dimensional Navier–Stokes equations

The paper is devoted to studying controllability properties for 3D Navier–Stokes equations in a bounded domain. We establish a sufficient condition under which the problem in question is exactly controllable in any finite-dimensional projection. Our sufficient condition is verified for any torus in R³${\mathbb{R}}^3$. The proofs are based on a development of a general approach introduced by Agrachev and Sarychev in the 2D case. As a simple consequence of the result on controllability, we show that the Cauchy problem for the 3D Navier–Stokes system has a unique strong solution for any initial function and a large class of external forces.     

Vacuum problem for 1D compressible Navier–Stokes equations with gravity and general pressure law

In this paper, we study the free boundary problem for the one-dimensional isentropic Navier–Stokes equations with gravity and vacuum for the general pressure P = P(ρ). We mainly obtain global existence, the uniqueness and asymptotic behavior of the weak solution. In particular, we get the result of Theorem 4.7, which shows that the time-asymptotic state corresponds to the hydrostatic pressure law.
