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

The aims of this paper are to discuss global existence and uniqueness of strong solution for a class of isentropic compressible navier-Stokes equations with non-Newtonian in one-dimensional bounded intervals. We prove two global existence results on strong solutions of 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.     

Global solutions of the Navier-Stokes equations for compressible flow with density-dependent viscosity and discontinuous initial data

In this paper, we study the evolutions of the interfaces between the gas and the vacuum for viscous one-dimensional isentropic gas motions. We prove the global existence and uniqueness for discontinuous solutions of the Navier-Stokes equations for compressible flow with density-dependent viscosity coefficient. Precisely, the viscosity coefficient μ is proportional to ρ^θ with 0<θ<1. Specifically, we require that the initial density be piecewise smooth with arbitrarily large jump discontinuities, bounded above and below away from zero, in the interior of gas. We show that the discontinuities in the density persist for all time, and give a decay result for the density as t→+∞.     

Remark on compressible Navier-Stokes equations with density-dependent viscosity and discontinuous initial data

In this paper, we study the free boundary problem for 1D compressible Navier-Stokes equations with density-dependent viscosity. We focus on the case where the viscosity coefficient vanishes on vacuum. We prove the global existence and uniqueness for discontinuous solutions to the Navier-Stokes equations when the initial density is a bounded variation function, and give a decay result for the density as t→+∞.     

Regularity of 1D compressible isentropic Navier-Stokes equations with density-dependent viscosity

In this paper, we consider one-dimensional compressible isentropic Navier-Stokes equations with the viscosity depending on density and with free boundary. The viscosity coefficient μ is proportional to ρθ with 0<θ<1, where ρ is the density. The existence and uniqueness of global weak solutions in H¹([0,1]) have been established in [S. Jiang, Z. Xin, P. Zhang, Global weak solutions to 1D compressible isentropic Navier-Stokes equations with density-dependent viscosity, Methods Appl. Anal. 12 (2005) 239-252]. We will establish the regularity of global solution under certain assumptions imposed on the initial data by deriving some new a priori estimates.     

Discontinuous solutions of the compressible Navier-Stokes equations with degenerate viscosity coefficient and vacuum

In this paper, we study the evolutions of the interfaces between gas and the vacuum for one-dimensional viscous gas motions when the initial density connects to vacuum continuously. The degeneracy appears in the initial data and has effect on the viscosity coefficient because the coefficient is assumed to be a power function of the density. Using some new a priori estimates, we establish the new local (in time) existence and uniqueness results under minimal hypotheses on the initial density, so that the interval for the power of the density in the viscosity coefficient is enlarged to (0,γ). In particular, we include the important case that the initial density could be piecewise smooth with arbitrarily large jump discontinuities, and could degenerate to zero.     

A remark on regularity of 1D compressible isentropic Navier-Stokes equations with density-dependent viscosity

In this paper, we consider one-dimensional compressible isentropic Navier-Stokes equations with the viscosity depending on density and with the free boundary. The viscosity coefficient μ is proportional to ρθ with θ>0, where ρ is the density. The existence, uniqueness, regularity of global weak solutions in H¹([0,1]) have been established by Xin and Yao in [Z. Xin, Z. Yao, The existence, uniqueness and regularity for one-dimensional compressible Navier-Stokes equations, preprint]. Furthermore, under certain assumptions imposed on the initial data, we improve the regularity result obtained in [Z. Xin, Z. Yao, The existence, uniqueness and regularity for one-dimensional compressible Navier-Stokes equations, preprint] by driving some new a priori estimates.     

Global existence of solutions for compressible Navier-Stokes equations with vacuum

In this paper, we will investigate the global existence of solutions for the one-dimensional compressible Navier-Stokes equations when the density is in contact with vacuum continuously. More precisely, the viscosity coefficient is assumed to be a power function of density, i.e., μ(ρ)=Aρθ, where A and θ are positive constants. New global existence result is established for 0<θ<1 when the initial density appears vacuum in the interior of the gas, which is the novelty of the presentation.     

Global behavior of spherically symmetric Navier-Stokes equations with density-dependent viscosity

In this paper, we study a free boundary problem for compressible spherically symmetric Navier-Stokes equations without a solid core. Under certain assumptions imposed on the initial data, we obtain the global existence and uniqueness of the weak solution, give some uniform bounds (with respect to time) of the solution and show that it converges to a stationary one as time tends to infinity. Moreover, we obtain the stabilization rate estimates of exponential type in L^∞-norm and weighted H¹-norm of the solution by constructing some Lyapunov functionals. The results show that such system is stable under the small perturbations, and could be applied to the astrophysics.     

Free boundary value problem for the one-dimensional compressible Navier-Stokes equations with density-dependent viscosity

We study the free boundary value problem for one-dimensional isentropic compressible Navier-Stokes equations with density-dependent viscosity coefficient in this paper. Under certain assumptions imposed on the initial data, we show that there exists a unique global strong solution, the interface separating the flow and vacuum state propagates along particle path and expands outwards at an algebraic time-rate, the flow density is strictly positive from blow for any finite time and decays pointwise to zero also at an algebraic time-rate as the time tends to infinity.     

Self-similar solutions to the isothermal compressible Navier-Stokes equations

^** Email: guo_zhenhua{at}iapcm.ac.cn^*** Email: jiang{at}iapcm.ac.cn We investigate the self-similar solutions to the isothermalcompressible Navier–Stokes equations. The aim of thispaper is to show that there exist neither forward nor backwardself-similar solutions with finite total energy.

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.

We prove the two existence results of the radially symmetric strong solutions to the Navier- Stokes-Poisson equations for isentropic compressible fluids. The important point in this paper is that the initial density is vacuum. It is different from weak solutions. Now we need some compatibility condition.

We establish the global existence and uniqueness of classical solutions to the Cauchy problem for the two-dimensional isentropic compressible Navier-Stokes equations with smooth initial data under the assumption that the viscosity coefficient μ is large enough. Here we do not require that the initial data is small.
