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.     

Strong solutions of the Navier-Stokes equations for isentropic compressible fluids

We study strong solutions of the isentropic compressible Navier-Stokes equations in a domain . We first prove the local existence of unique strong solutions provided that the initial data ρ₀ and u₀ satisfy a natural compatibility condition. The important point in this paper is that we allow the initial vacuum: the initial density may vanish in an open subset of Ω. We then prove a new uniqueness result and stability result. Our results are valid for unbounded domains as well as bounded ones.     

Global smooth solutions of the compressible Navier-Stokes equations with density-dependent viscosity

In this paper we study a free boundary problem for the viscous, compressible, heat conducting, one-dimensional real fluids. More precisely, the viscosity is assumed to be a power function of density, i.e., μ(ρ)=ρα, where ρ denotes the density of fluids and α is a positive constant. In addition, the equations of state include and are more general than perfect flows which only depend linearly on temperature. The global existence (uniqueness) of smooth solutions is established with for general, large initial data, which improves the previous results. Moreover, it is also shown that the solutions will not develop vacuum, mass concentration or heat concentration in a finite time provided the initial data are bounded and smooth, and do not contain vacuum.     

Global existence and uniqueness of solution of the initial boundary value problem for a class of non-Newtonian fluids with vacuum

The aims of this paper are to discuss global existence and uniqueness of solution for a class of non-Newtonian fluids with vacuum in one-dimensional bounded interval. The important point in this paper is that we allow the initial vacuum. In particular, these results are used to prove similar results for more general non-Newtonian fluids, and applied to numerical computation.

Global existence of strong solutions of the Navier-Stokes equations for isentropic compressible fluids with density-dependent viscosity

This paper is concerned with global strong solutions of the isentropic compressible Navier-Stokes equations with density-dependent viscosity coefficient in one-dimensional bounded intervals. Precisely, the viscosity coefficient μ=μ(ρ) and the pressure P is proportional to ργ with γ>1. The important point in this paper is that the initial density may vanish in an open subset. We also show that the strong solution obtained above is unique provided that the initial data satisfies additional regularity and a compatible condition. Compared with former results obtained by Hyunseok Kim in [H. Kim, Global existence of strong solutions of the Navier-Stokes equations for one-dimensional isentropic compressible fluids, available at: http://com2mac.postech.ac.kr/papers/2001/01-38.pdf], we deal with density-dependent viscosity coefficient.     

Existence and uniqueness of solutions for a class of non-Newtonian fluids with singularity and vacuum

The aims of this paper are to discuss existence and uniqueness of local solutions for a class of non-Newtonian fluids with singularity and vacuum in one-dimensional bounded intervals. There are two important points in this paper, one is that we allow the initial vacuum; another one is that the viscosity term of momentum equation is with singularity and fully nonlinearity.     

Global existence and asymptotic convergence of weak solutions for the one-dimensional Navier-Stokes equations with capillarity and nonmonotonic pressure

We construct global weak solution of the Navier-Stokes equations with capillarity and nonmonotonic pressure. The volume variable v₀ is initially assumed to be in H¹ and the velocity variable u₀ to be in L² on a finite interval [0,1]. We show that both variables become smooth in positive time and that asymptotically in time u→0 strongly in L²([0,1]) and v approaches the set of stationary solutions in H¹([0,1]).     

On existence of global solutions to the Navier-Stokes equations for compressible and viscous flows on the surface of a sphere

Following tecniques proposed by A. V. Khazikhov and V. A. Weigant in 1995, we prove the global, with respect to time, existence and uniqueness of the solution to the Navier-Stokes equations for a compressible, viscous and barotropic fluid which moves on the surface of a sphere. In obtaining the main estimates we make use of the Hodge decomposition and the generalized potential theory due to K. Kodaira.

Behaviour of weak solutions of compressible Navier-Stokes equations for isothermal fluids with a nonlinear stress tensor

The aim of this paper is to study the behaviour of a weak solution to Navier-Stokes equations for isothermal fluids with a nonlinear stress tensor for time going to infinity. In an analogous way as in [18], we construct a suitable function which approximates the density for time going to infinity. Using properties of this function, we can prove the strong convergence of the density to its limit state. The behaviour of the velocity field and kinetic energy is mentioned as well.     

Global existence and convergence rates of smooth solutions for the compressible magnetohydrodynamic equations

In this paper, we are concerned with the global existence and convergence rates of the smooth solutions for the compressible magnetohydrodynamic equations in R³. We prove the global existence of the smooth solutions by the standard energy method under the condition that the initial data are close to the constant equilibrium state in H³-framework. Moreover, if additionally the initial data belong to L^p with , the optimal convergence rates of the solutions in L^q-norm with 2≤q≤6 and its spatial derivatives in L²-norm are obtained.     

Uniform stability at permanently acting disturbances of solutions of Navier-Stokes equations for compressible isothermic fluids

We prove that the uniform stability at permanently acting disturbances of a given solution of the Navier-Stokes equations for viscous compressible isothermic fluid is a consequence of the uniform exponential stability of the zero solution of so-called linearized equations.The research was supported by the grant No. 201/93/2177 of Grant Agency of Czech Republic.     

Global strong solutions of Navier-Stokes equations with interface boundary in three-dimensional thin domains

In this article, we study the spectrum of the Stokes operator in a 3D two layer domain with interface, obtain the asymptotic estimates on the spectrum of the Stokes operator as thickness ε goes to zero. Based on the spectral decomposition of the Stokes operator, a new average-like operator is introduced and applied to the study of Navier-Stokes equation in the two layer thin domains under interface boundary condition. We prove the global existence of strong solutions to the 3D Navier-Stokes equations when the initial data and external forces are in large sets as the thickness of the domain is small. This article is a continuation of our study on the Stokes operator under Navier friction boundary condition. Due to the viscosity distinction between the two layers, the Stokes operator displays radically different spectral structure from that under Navier friction boundary condition, then causes great difficulty to the analysis.     

On classical solutions of the compressible Navier-Stokes equations with nonnegative initial densities

We study the Navier-Stokes equations for compressible barotropic fluids in a bounded or unbounded domain Ω of R³. We first prove the local existence of solutions (ρ,u) in C([0,T_*]; (ρ^∞ +H³(Ω)) × under the assumption that the data satisfies a natural compatibility condition. Then deriving the smoothing effect of the velocity u in t>0, we conclude that (ρ,u) is a classical solution in (0,T_**)×Ω for some T_** ∈ (0,T_*]. For these results, the initial density needs not be bounded below away from zero and may vanish in an open subset (vacuum) of Ω.     

Global existence of solutions for one-dimensional compressible navier-stokes equations in the half space

We prove the existence of global solutions to the initial-boundary-value problem on the half space R＋ for a one-dimensional viscous ideal polytropic gas. Some suitable assumptions are made to guarantee the existence of smooth solutions. Employing the L2- energy estimate, we prove that the impermeable problem has a unique global solutionis.     

Global existence of solutions to the compressible Navier-Stokes equation around parallel flows

The initial boundary value problem for the compressible Navier-Stokes equation is considered in an infinite layer of Rn. It is proved that if n?3, then strong solutions to the compressible Navier-Stokes equation around parallel flows exist globally in time for sufficiently small initial perturbations, provided that the Reynolds and Mach numbers are sufficiently small. The proof is given by a variant of the Matsumura-Nishida energy method based on a decomposition of solutions associated with a spectral property of the linearized operator.     

Uniqueness and continuous dependence of weak solutions in compressible magnetohydrodynamics

We prove uniqueness and continuous dependence on initial data of weak solutions of the equations of compressible magnetohydrodynamics. The solutions we consider may exhibit discontinuities in density and in the gradients of velocity, temperature, and magnetic field. Continuous dependence is deduced by duality from existence and regularity of solutions of the adjoint of the first variation system. The analysis is complicated by the absence of strict parabolicity, the strong nonlinear coupling in the highest-order terms, and the lack of regularity in the coefficients of the adjoint system.Research supported in part by the NSF under Grant DMS-0305072.Received: May 5, 2004     

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 existence of the radially symmetric strong solution to Navier-Stokes-Poisson equations for isentropic compressible fluids

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.     

Global classical large solutions to 1D compressible Navier-Stokes equations with density-dependent viscosity and vacuum

In this paper, we investigate an initial boundary value problem for 1D compressible isentropic Navier-Stokes equations with large initial data, density-dependent viscosity, external force, and vacuum. Making full use of the local estimates of the solutions in Cho and Kim (2006) [3] and the one-dimensional properties of the equations and the Sobolev inequalities, we get a unique global classical solution (ρ,u) where ρ∈C¹([0,T];H¹([0,1])) and u∈H¹([0,T];H²([0,1])) for any T>0. As it is pointed out in Xin (1998) [31] that the smooth solution (ρ,u)∈C¹([0,T];H³(R¹)) (T is large enough) of the Cauchy problem must blow up in finite time when the initial density is of nontrivial compact support. It seems that the regularities of the solutions we obtained can be improved, which motivates us to obtain some new estimates with the help of a new test function ρ²utt, such as Lemmas 3.2-3.6. This leads to further regularities of (ρ,u) where ρ∈C¹([0,T];H³([0,1])), u∈H¹([0,T];H³([0,1])). It is still open whether the regularity of u could be improved to C¹([0,T];H³([0,1])) with the appearance of vacuum, since it is not obvious that the solutions in C¹([0,T];H³([0,1])) to the initial boundary value problem must blow up in finite time.
