The large time behavior of solutions to 3D Navier–Stokes equations with nonlinear damping

This paper studies the Cauchy problem of the 3D Navier–Stokes equations with nonlinear damping term | u | ^β?1u (β ≥ 1). For β ≥ 3, we derive a decay rate of the L²‐norm of the solutions. Then, the large time behavior is given by comparing the equation with the classic 3D Navier–Stokes equations. Copyright © 2011 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Global existence of the radially symmetric solutions of the Navier–Stokes equations for the isentropic compressible fluids

We study the isentropic compressible Navier–Stokes equations with radially symmetric data in an annular domain. We first prove the global existence and regularity results on the radially symmetric weak solutions with non‐negative bounded densities. Then we prove the global existence of radially symmetric strong solutions when the initial data ρ₀, u ₀ satisfy the compatibility condition for some radially symmetric g ∈ L². The initial density ρ₀ needs not be positive. We also prove some uniqueness results on the strong solutions. Copyright © 2004 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Large time behavior of solutions to 3D compressible Navier-Stokes-Poisson system

We consider the three-dimensional compressible Navier-Stokes-Poisson system where the electric field of the internal electrostatic potential force is governed by the self-consistent Poisson equation.If the Fourier modes of the initial data are degenerate at the low frequency or the initial data decay fast at spatial infinity,we show that the density converges to its equilibrium state at the L 2-rate (1+t)(-7/4) or L ∞-rate (1+t)(-5/2),and the momentum decays at the L 2-rate (1+t)(-5/4) or L ∞-rate (1+t)(-2).These convergence rates are shown to be optimal for the compressible Navier-Stokes-Poisson system.     

Compressible Navier–Stokes system in 1‐D

The compressible barotropic Navier–Stokes system in monodimensional case with a Neumann boundary condition given on a free boundary is considered. The global existence with uniformly boundedness for large initial data and a positive force is proved. The result concerning an asymptotic behavior shows that the solutions tends to the stationary solution. Copyright © 2001 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Global classical solution to the 3D isentropic compressible Navier–Stokes equations with general initial data and a density‐dependent viscosity coefficient

In this paper, we study the global existence of classical solutions to the three‐dimensional compressible Navier–Stokes equations with a density‐dependent viscosity coefficient (λ = λ(ρ)). For the general initial data, which could be either vacuum or non‐vacuum, we prove the global existence of classical solutions, under the assumption that the viscosity coefficient μ is large enough.

Asymptotic behavior for the Navier–Stokes equations in 2D exterior domains

We show that the L^p spatial–temporal decay rates of solutions of incompressible flow in an 2D exterior domain. When a domain has a boundary, pressure term makes an obstacle since we do not have enough information on the pressure term near the boundary. To overcome the difficulty, we adopt the ideas in He, Xin [C. He, Z. Xin, Weighted estimates for nonstationary Navier–Stokes equations in exterior domain, Methods Appl. Anal. 7 (3) (2000) 443–458], and our previous results [H.-O. Bae, B.J. Jin, Asymptotic behavior of Stokes solutions in 2D exterior domains, J. Math. Fluid Mech., in press; H.-O. Bae, B.J. Jin, Temporal and spatial decay rates of Navier–Stokes solutions in exterior domains, submitted for publication]. For the spatial decay rate estimate, we first extend temporal decay rate result of the Navier–Stokes solutions for general L^p space when the initial velocity is in , 1<rq<∞ (1<r<q=∞).     

A remark on the decay of solutions to the 3‐D Navier–Stokes equations

In this paper we derive a decay rate of the L²‐norm of the solution to the 3‐D Navier–Stokes equations. Although the result which is proved by Fourier splitting method is well known, our method is new, concise and direct. Moreover, it turns out that the new method established here has a wide application on other equations. Copyright © 2007 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Large time behavior for the non‐isentropic Navier–Stokes–Maxwell system

In this paper, we are concerned with the system of the non‐isentropic compressible Navier–Stokes equations coupled with the Maxwell equations through the Lorentz force in three space dimensions. The global existence of solutions near constant steady states is established, and the time‐decay rates of perturbed solutions are obtained. The proof for existence is due to the classical energy method, and the investigation of large‐time behavior is based on the linearized analysis of the non‐isentropic Navier–Stokes–Poisson equations and the electromagnetic part for the linearized isentropic Navier–Stokes–Maxwell equations. In the meantime, the time‐decay rates obtained by Zhang, Li, and Zhu [J. Differential Equations, 250(2011), 866‐891] for the linearized non‐isentropic Navier–Stokes–Poisson equations are improved.

Local exact controllability of the Navier–Stokes system

In this paper we deal with the local exact controllability of the Navier–Stokes system with distributed controls supported in small sets. In a first step, we present a new Carleman inequality for the linearized Navier–Stokes system, which leads to null controllability at any time T>0. Then, we deduce a local result concerning the exact controllability to the trajectories of the Navier–Stokes system.     

Blow‐up of the smooth solutions to the compressible Navier–Stokes equations

In this paper, we will firstly extend the results about Jiu, Wang, and Xin (JDE, 2015, 259, 2981–3003). We prove that any smooth solution of compressible fluid will blow up without any restriction about the specific heat ratio γ. Then we prove the blow‐up of smooth solution of compressible Navier–Stokes equations in half space with Navier‐slip boundary. The main ideal is constructing the differential inequality.

Steady compressible Navier–Stokes equations in domains with non‐compact boundaries

We consider the steady compressible Navier–Stokes equations of isentropic flow in three‐dimensional domains with several exits to infinity with prescribed pressure drops. On the one hand, when each exit is supposed to contain a cone inside, we shall construct bounded energy weak solution for adiabatic constant γ>3. On the other hand, when the exits do not open sufficiently rapidly, we shall prove a non‐existence result. Copyright © 2005 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

A remark on free boundary problem of 1‐D compressible Navier–Stokes equations with density‐dependent viscosity

In this paper, we prove the existence and uniqueness of the weak solution of the one‐dimensional compressible Navier–Stokes equations with density‐dependent viscosity µ(ρ)=ρ^θ with θ∈(0, γ?2], γ>1. The initial data are a perturbation of a corresponding steady solution and continuously contact with vacuum on the free boundary. The obtained results apply for the one‐dimensional Siant–Venant model of shallow water and generalize ones in (Arch. Rational Mech. Anal. 2006; 182: 223–253).

Global C∞‐solutions to 1D compressible Navier–Stokes equations with density‐dependent viscosity

In this paper, we consider the existence of global smooth solutions to 1D compressible isentropic Navier–Stokes equations with density‐dependent viscosity and free boundaries. The initial density ρ₀∈W^1,2n is bounded below away from zero and the initial velocity u₀∈L²ⁿ. The viscosity coefficient µ is proportional to ρ^θ with 0<θ?1, where ρis the density. The existence and uniqueness of global solutions in Hⁱ([0,1])(i = 1,2,4) have been established in (J. Math. Phys. 2009; 50 :023101; Meth. Appl. Anal. 2005; 12 :239–252; J. Differ. Equations 2008; 245:3956–3973; Commun. Pure Appl. Anal. 2008; 7 :373–381). By mathematical induction method, we will establish the existence of global smooth solutions to 1D compressible isentropic Navier–Stokes equations with density‐dependent viscosity and free boundaries when the initial data ρ₀ and u₀ are smooth.

Global classical solution to 1D compressible Navier–Stokes equations with no vacuum at infinity

C. Miao In this paper, we are concerned with the 1D Cauchy problem of the compressible Navier–Stokes equations with the viscosity μ(ρ) = 1+ρ^β(β≥0). The initial density can be arbitrarily large and keep a non‐vacuum state at far fields. We will establish the global existence of the classical solution for 0≤β < γ via a priori estimates when the initial density contains vacuum in interior interval or is away from the vacuum. We will show that the solution will not develop vacuum in any finite time if the initial density is away from the vacuum. To study the well‐posedness of the problem, it is crucial to obtain the upper bound of the density. Some new weighted estimates are applied to obtain our main results.

Stokes and Navier–Stokes equations with nonhomogeneous boundary conditions

In this paper, we study the existence and regularity of solutions to the Stokes and Oseen equations with nonhomogeneous Dirichlet boundary conditions with low regularity. We consider boundary conditions for which the normal component is not equal to zero. We rewrite the Stokes and the Oseen equations in the form of a system of two equations. The first one is an evolution equation satisfied by Pu, the projection of the solution on the Stokes space – the space of divergence free vector fields with a normal trace equal to zero – and the second one is a quasi-stationary elliptic equation satisfied by (I−P)u, the projection of the solution on the orthogonal complement of the Stokes space. We establish optimal regularity results for Pu and (I−P)u. We also study the existence of weak solutions to the three-dimensional instationary Navier–Stokes equations for more regular data, but without any smallness assumption on the initial and boundary conditions.

Global existence of weak solution to Navier–Stokes equations with large external force and general pressure

We study the 3‐D compressible Navier–Stokes equations with an external potential force and a general pressure. We prove the global‐in‐time existence of weak solutions with small‐energy initial data and with densities being positive and essentially bounded. No smallness assumption is made on the external force. Copyright © 2013 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

On the domain dependence of solutions to the Navier–Stokes equations of a two‐dimensional compressible flow

We consider the Navier–Stokes equations for compressible, barotropic flow in two space dimensions, with pressure satisfying p(?)=a?log^d(?) for large ?, here d>1 and a>0. After introducing useful tools from the theory of Orlicz spaces, we prove a compactness result for the solution set of the equations with respect to the variation of the underlying bounded spatial domain. Especially, we get a general existence theorem for the system in question with no restrictions on smoothness of the bounded spatial domain. Copyright © 2009 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Existence of global strong solution for the compressible Navier–Stokes equations with degenerate viscosity coefficients in 1D

We consider Navier–Stokes equations for compressible viscous fluids in the one‐dimensional case. We prove the existence of global strong solution with large initial data for compressible Navier–Stokes equation with viscosity coefficients of the form with (it includes in particular the important physical case of the viscous shallow water system when ). The key ingredient of the proof relies to a new formulation of the compressible equations involving a new effective velocity v (see 13 , 14 , 16 , 17 ) such that the density verifies a parabolic equation. We estimate v in norm which enables us to control the norm of by using the maximum principle.     

Compressible Navier–Stokes equations with vacuum state in the case of general pressure law

In this paper, we consider the one‐dimensional compressible isentropic Navier–Stokes equations with a general ‘pressure law’ and the density‐dependent viscosity coefficient when the density connects to vacuum continuously. Precisely, the viscosity coefficient µ is proportional to ρ^θ and 0<θ<1, where ρ is the density. And the pressure P = P(ρ) is a general ‘pressure law’. The global existence and the uniqueness of weak solutions is proved, and a decay result for the pressure as t→ + ∞ is given. It is also proved that no vacuum states and no concentration states develop, and the free boundary do not expand to infinite. Copyright © 2006 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
