The motion of a compressible viscous fluid around rotating body

We consider the motion of compressible viscous fluids around a rotating rigid obstacle when the velocity at infinity is non zero and parallel to the axis of rotation. We prove the existence of weak solution.     

Operator methods in the problem of perturbed motion of a rotating body partially filled with liquid

We apply operator methods to the investigation of an initial boundary-value problem which describes the perturbed motion of a body with cavity partially filled with an ideal liquid relative to the uniform rotation of this system about a fixed axis. We prove the existence and uniqueness of generalized solutions with finite energy and establish a sufficient condition for the stability of motion and some properties of the spectrum of the problem under consideration.     

Propagation of stationary waves in a compound deformable tube filled with a viscous liquid

The problem of modeling the motion of the blood in a large vessel, partly replaced by a prosthesis (or graft) is considered. It is assumed that the material of the vessel and prosthesis is represented by a Voigt linear viscoelastic model.S. M. Kirov Azerbaidzhan State University, Baku.

On slow motion of a sphere in a viscous liquid

Stokes’ and Seth’s solutions for the slow motion of a sphere in a viscous, incompressible liquid have been discussed from the viewpoint of the structure of the velocity field and its relation to the drag of the sphere. The problem is analysed from a different angle in this paper. It is believed that it throws more light on thephysics of the problem.     

The stability of the steady motion of a gyrostat with a liquid in a cavity

A symmetrical rigid body with a spherical base, carrying a rotor and having a cavity in the shape of an ellipsoid of revolution, completely filled with an ideal incompressible liquid in uniform vortex motion, is moving along an absolutely rough plane. It is shown that this system admits of an energy integral, Jellett's integral, the integral of constant vorticity and a geometric integral. The construction of a Lyapunov function as a linear combination of first integrals [1] yields the sufficient conditions for the rotation of the gyrostat about the vertically positioned axis of symmetry to be stable. The conditions for the gyrostat's rotation to be unstable are found. It is shown that the rotor may prove to have either a stabilizing or destabilizing effect on the system and that the gyrostat admits of motions of the type of regular precession. The sufficient conditions for the stability of these motions are obtained.     

Predominantly unidirectional rotation of a solid body and a viscous liquid

Under consideration are two problems of the time-periodic motion of a hydro-mechanical system consisting of a viscous liquid and solid bodies bordering it. A new hydro-mechanical effect is discovered.     

Slow broad side motion of a flat plate in a viscous liquid

Zusammenfassung Das Problem der langsamen Querbewegung einer ebenen Platte in einer zähen Flüssigkeit ist zurückgeführt worden auf ein Problem der Elektrostatik. Die Geschwindigkeitskomponenten und der Druck können berechnet werden aus einer Funktion , die als die gleiche erscheint wie das elektrostatische Potential einer Platte unter konstantem Potential im Vakuum. Die Strömungsverhältnisse an einer Platte vom allgemeinen Umriss können mit Hilfe der Experimente auf Grund dieser Analogie bestimmt werden. Der Fall einer kreisrunden Platte wurde analytisch behandelt mit Hilfe der Abbildungen.     

On the nonstationary motion of a viscous incompressible liquid over a rotating ball

We consider the free boundary problem for the Navier–Stokes equations governing a nonstationary motion of a layer of a viscous incompressible liquid that covers the surface of a rigid ball rotating around a fixed axis with constant angular velocity ω. The liquid is subject to the gravitation force generated by the mass of the ball. The self-gravitation forces between the liquid particles and capillary forces on the free surface are not taken into account. We consider the problem of stability of the regime of the rigid rotation of the liquid with the same angular velocity and prove that it is stable if |ω| is less than a certain constant.

Axially symmetric wave motion of a viscous liquid in a linearly viscoelastic tube

The problem of the propagation of progressive waves in a tube made of a linearly viscoelastic material which encloses a viscous Newtonian liquid is examined. For numerical calculations, it is proposed that the behavior of the tube wall material be described by the Voigt model. Dispersion curves are constructed for this case.S. M.

Synchronization effects in rotors partly filled with fluid

In fluid-filled rotors self-excited vibrations occur induced by a surface wave of the fluid. A characteristic property is the instability over the full range of angular velocity above the Eigenfrequency of the system. A possible explanation is the occurrence of synchronization effects between fluid and rotor. The behaviour of rotors partly filled with fluid was mostly studied under the aspect of stability in steady-state conditions. For non-steady-state investigations, discrete models with reduced number of degrees of freedom and reasonable ability to model the system behaviour are desirable due to the complexity of fluid modelling. This paper analyses a simple minimal model and shows synchronization effects between fluid and rotor model. (© 2015 Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim)     

Dynamics of a rotor partially filled with a viscous incompressible fluid

A rotor partially filled with a viscous incompressible fluid is modeled as planar system. Its structural part, i. e. the rotor, is assumed to be rigid, circular, elastically supported and running with a prescribed time-dependent angular velocity. Both parts, structure and fluid, interact via the no-slip condition and the pressure. The point of departure for the mathematical formulation of the fluid filling is the Navier-Stokes equation, which is complemented by an additional equation for the evolution of its free inner boundary. Further, rotor and fluid are subjected to volume forces, namely gravitation. Trial functions are chosen for the fluid velocity field, the pressure field and the moving boundary, which fulfill the incompressibility constraint as well as the boundary conditions. Inserting these trial functions into the partial differential equations of the fluid motion, and applying the method of weighted residuals yields equations with time derivatives only. Finally, in combination with the rotor equations, a nonlinear system of 12 differential-algebraic equations results, which sufficiently describes solutions near the circular symmetric state and which may indicate the loss of its stability.

On the slow motion of a self-propelled rigid body in a viscous incompressible fluid

In this paper we study the Stokes approximation of the self-propelled motion of a rigid body in a viscous liquid that fills all the three-dimensional space exterior to the body. We prove the existence and uniqueness of strong solution to the coupled systems of equations describing the motion of the system body-liquid, for any time and any regular distribution of velocity on the boundary of the body. For the corresponding stationary problem we derive L^p-estimates for the solution in terms of the data. Finally, we prove that every steady solution is attainable as the limit, when t→∞, of an unsteady self-propelled solution which starts from rest.
