A hyperbolic relaxation of the classical Navier-Stokes problem in 2D bounded domain with Dirichlet boundary conditions is considered. It is proved that this relaxed problem possesses a global strong solution if the relaxation parameter is small and the appropriate norm of the initial data is not very large. Moreover, the dissipativity of such solutions is established and the singular limit as the relaxation parameter tends to zero is studied
We show that non-uniqueness of the Leray-Hopf solutions of the Navier--Stokes equation on the hyperbolic plane observed in arXiv:1006.2819 is a consequence of the Hodge decomposition. We show that this phenomenon does not occur on the hyperbolic spaces of higher dimension. We also describe the corresponding general Hamiltonian setting of hydrodynamics on complete Riemannian manifolds, which includes the hyperbolic setting.
Using the Maslowski and Seidler method, the existence of invariant measure for 2-dimensional stochastic Cahn-Hilliard-Navier-Stokes equations with multiplicative noise is proved in state space $L_x^2times H^1$, working with the weak topology. Also, the existence of global pathwise solution is investigated using the stochastic compactness argument.
Geometric structures naturally appear in fluid motions. One of the best known examples is Saturns Hexagon, the huge cloud pattern at the level of Saturns north pole, remarkable both for the regularity of its shape and its stability during the past decades. In this paper we will address the spontaneous formation of hexagonal structures in planar viscous flows, in the classical setting of Lerays solutions of the Navier-Stokes equations. Our analysis also makes evidence of the isotropic character of the energy density of the fluid for sufficently localized 2D flows in the far field: it implies, in particular, that fluid particles of such flows are nowhere at rest at large distances.
We investigate the problem of classification of solutions for the steady Navier-Stokes equations in any cone-like domains. In the form of separated variables, $$u(x,y)=left( begin{array}{c} varphi_1(r)v_1(theta) varphi_2(r)v_2(theta) end{array} right) ,$$ where $x=rcostheta$ and $y=rsintheta$ in polar coordinates, we obtain the expressions of all smooth solutions with $C^0$ Dirichlet boundary condition. In particular, it shows that (i) some solutions are found, which are H{o}lder continuous on the boundary, but their gradients blow up at the corner; (ii) all solutions in the entire plane of $mathbb{R}^2$ like harmonic functions or Stokes equations, are polynomial expressions.
In this article, we establish sufficient conditions for the regularity of solutions of Navier-Stokes equations based on one of the nine entries of the gradient tensor. We improve the recently results of C.S. Cao, E.S. Titi (Arch. Rational Mech.Anal. 202 (2011) 919-932) and Y. Zhou, M. Pokorn$acute{y}$ (Nonlinearity 23, 1097-1107 (2010)).
