The existence of a random attractor for the three dimensional damped Navier–Stokes equations with additive noise

This article is concerned with the asymptotical behavior of solutions for the three-dimensional damped Navier–Stokes equations with additive noise. Due to the shortage of the existence proof of the existence of random absorbing sets in a more regular phase space, we cannot obtain some kind of compactness of the cocycle associated with the three-dimensional damped Navier–Stokes equations with additive noise by the Sobolev compactness embedding theorem. In this paper, we prove the existence of a random attractor for the three-dimensional damped Navier–Stokes equations with additive noise by verifying the pullback flattening property.     

Stability behaviors of Leray weak solutions to the three-dimensional Navier–Stokes equations

This paper is devoted to the investigation of stability behaviors of Leray weak solutions to the three-dimensional Navier–Stokes equations. For a Leray weak solution of the Navier–Stokes equations in a critical Besov space, it is shown that the Leray weak solution is uniformly stable with respect to a small perturbation of initial velocity and external forcing. If the perturbation is not small, the perturbed weak solution converges asymptotically to the original weak solution as the time tends to the infinity. Additionally, an energy equality and weak–strong uniqueness for the three-dimensional Navier–Stokes equations are derived. The findings are mainly based on the estimations of the nonlinear term of the Navier–Stokes equations in a Besov space framework, the use of special test functions and the energy estimate method.     

A note on statistical solutions of the three-dimensional Navier–Stokes equations: The stationary case

Stationary statistical solutions of the three-dimensional Navier–Stokes equations for incompressible fluids are considered. They are a mathematical formalization of the notion of ensemble average for turbulent flows in statistical equilibrium in time. They are also a generalization of the notion of invariant measure to the case of the three-dimensional Navier–Stokes equations, for which a global uniqueness result is not known to exist and a semigroup may not be well-defined in the classical sense. The two classical definitions of stationary statistical solutions are considered and compared, one of them being a particular case of the other and possessing a number of useful properties. Furthermore, the so-called time-average stationary statistical solutions, obtained as generalized limits of time averages of weak solutions as the averaging time goes to infinity are shown to belong to this more restrictive class. A recurrent type result is also obtained for statistical solutions satisfying an accretion condition. Finally, the weak global attractor of the three-dimensional Navier–Stokes equations is considered, and in particular it is shown that there exists a topologically large subset of the weak global attractor which is of full measure with respect to that particular class of stationary statistical solutions and which has a certain regularity property.     

The coupling system of Navier–Stokes equations and elastic Navier–Lame equations in a blood vessel

In this paper, the blood flow problem is considered in a blood vessel, and a coupling system of Navier–Stokes equations and linear elastic equations, Navier–Lame equations, in a cylinder with cylindrical elastic shell is given as the governing equations of the problem. We provide two finite element models to simulating the three-dimensional Navier–Stokes equations in the cylinder while the asymptotic expansion method is used to solving the linearly elastic shell equations. Specifically, in order to discrete the Navier–Stokes equations, the dimensional splitting strategy is constructed under the cylinder coordinate system. The spectral method is adopted along the rotation direction while the finite element method is used along the other directions. By using the above strategy, we get a series of two-dimensional-three-components (2D-3C) fluid problems. By introduce the S-coordinate system in E³ and employ the thickness of blood vessel wall as the expanding parameter, the asymptotic expansion method can be established to approximate the solution of the 3D elastic problem. The interface contact conditions can be treated exactly based on the knowledge of tensor analysis. Finally, numerical test shows that our method is reasonable.

Les solutions élements finis des équations de Navier–Stokes périodiques en dimension trois sont « appropriées »

It is shown that the limits of Faedo–Galerkin approximations of the Navier–Stokes equations in the three-dimensional torus are suitable weak solutions to the Navier–Stokes equations provided they are constructed using finite-dimensional spaces having a discrete commutator property and satisfying a proper inf–sup condition. Low order mixed finite element spaces appear to be acceptable for this purpose. This question was open since the notion of suitable solution was introduced. To cite this article: J.-L. Guermond, C.

Incompressible limit of all-time solutions to 3-D full Navier–Stokes equations for perfect gas with well-prepared initial condition

In this paper, we prove the incompressible limit of all-time strong solutions to the three-dimensional full compressible Navier–Stokes equations. Here the velocity field and temperature satisfy the Dirichlet boundary condition and convective boundary condition, respectively. The uniform estimates in both the Mach number \({\epsilon\in(0,\overline{\epsilon}]}\) and time \({t\in[0,\infty)}\) are established by deriving a differential inequality with decay property, where \({\overline{\epsilon}\in(0,1]}\) is a constant. Based on these uniform estimates, the global solution of full compressible Navier–Stokes equations with “well-prepared” initial conditions converges to the one of isentropic incompressible Navier–Stokes equations as the Mach number goes to zero.     

Explicit solution of the incompressible Navier–Stokes equations with linear finite elements

A three-field finite element scheme for the explicit iterative solution of the stationary incompressible Navier–Stokes equations is studied. In linearized form the scheme is associated with a generalized time-dependent Stokes system discretized in time. The resulting system of equations allows for a stable approximation of velocity, pressure and stress deviator tensor, by means of continuous piecewise linear finite elements, in both two- and three-dimensional space. Convergence in an appropriate sense applying to this finite element discretization is demonstrated, for the stationary Stokes system.     

Unconditionally Stable Algorithm for Solving the Three-Dimensional Nonstationary Navier–Stokes Equations

We propose an unconditionally stable method for solving the three-dimensional nonstationary Navier–Stokes equations in the velocity–pressure variables. The method is based on a conservative finite-difference scheme and the simultaneous solution of the momentum and continuity equations at each time layer. The velocity and pressure fields are calculated by using a parallel algorithm for solving systems of linear equations by the Gauss method.     

Approximations of stochastic Navier–Stokes equations

A blowup criterion for nonhomogeneous incompressible Navier–Stokes–Landau–Lifshitz system in 2-D

In this paper, we investigate nonhomogeneous incompressible Navier–Stokes–Landau–Lifshitz system in two-dimensional (2-D). This system consists of Navier–Stokes equations coupled with Landau–Lifshitz–Gilbert equation, an evolutionary equation for the magnetization vector. We establish a blowup criterion for the 2-D incompressible Navier–Stokes–Landau–Lifshitz system with finite positive initial density.     

Global Mild Solution of Stochastic Generalized Navier–Stokes Equations with Coriolis Force

In this paper, we apply Littlewood–Paley theory and Itô integral to get the global existence of stochastic Navier–Stokes equations with Coriolis force in Fourier–Besov spaces. As a comparison, we also give corresponding results of the deterministic Navier–Stokes equations with Coriolis force.     

Long-time behavior of solution for the compressible Navier–Stokes–Korteweg equations in R3

In this paper, we study the long-time behavior of solution for the compressible Navier–Stokes–Korteweg equations in three-dimensional whole space. More precisely, we focus on establishing the optimal time decay rates for the higher-order spatial derivatives of density and velocity, which will improve the work of Wang and Tan (2011).     

Maximum Principle of Optimal Control of the Primitive Equations of the Ocean With State Constraint

We investigate in this paper Pontryagin's maximum principle for a class of control problems associated with the primitive equations (PEs) of the ocean. These optimal problems involve a state constraint similar to that considered in Wang and Wang (Nonlinear Analysis 2003; 52:1911–1931) for the three-dimensional Navier–Stokes (NS) equations. The main difference between this work and Wang and Wang (Nonlinear Analysis 2003; 52:1911–1931) is that the nonlinearity in the PEs is stronger than in the three-dimensional NS systems.     

A parallel implementation of the modified augmented Lagrangian preconditioner for the incompressible Navier–Stokes equations

We describe a parallel implementation of a block triangular preconditioner based on the modified augmented Lagrangian approach to the steady incompressible Navier–Stokes equations. The equations are linearized by Picard iteration and discretized with various finite element and finite difference schemes on two- and three-dimensional domains. We report strong scalability results for up to 64 cores.     

Global well-posedness of the velocity–vorticity-Voigt model of the 3D Navier–Stokes equations

The velocity–vorticity formulation of the 3D Navier–Stokes equations was recently found to give excellent numerical results for flows with strong rotation. In this work, we propose a new regularization of the 3D Navier–Stokes equations, which we call the 3D velocity–vorticity-Voigt (VVV) model, with a Voigt regularization term added to momentum equation in velocity–vorticity form, but with no regularizing term in the vorticity equation. We prove global well-posedness and regularity of this model under periodic boundary conditions. We prove convergence of the model's velocity and vorticity to their counterparts in the 3D Navier–Stokes equations as the Voigt modeling parameter tends to zero. We prove that the curl of the model's velocity converges to the model vorticity (which is solved for directly), as the Voigt modeling parameter tends to zero. Finally, we provide a criterion for finite-time blow-up of the 3D Navier–Stokes equations based on this inviscid regularization.     

Vanishing viscosity and Debye-length limit to rarefaction wave with vacuum for the 1D bipolar Navier–Stokes–Poisson equation

In this paper, we consider the one-dimensional (1D) compressible bipolar Navier–Stokes–Poisson equations. We know that when the viscosity coefficient and Debye length are zero in the compressible bipolar Navier–Stokes–Poisson equations, we have the compressible Euler equations. Under the case that the compressible Euler equations have a rarefaction wave with one-side vacuum state, we can construct a sequence of the approximation solution to the one-dimensional bipolar Navier–Stokes–Poisson equations with well-prepared initial data, which converges to the above rarefaction wave with vacuum as the viscosity and the Debye length tend to zero. Moreover, we also obtain the uniform convergence rate. The results are proved by a scaling argument and elaborate energy estimate.     

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.
