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.

In this paper we study the dynamics of an incompressible viscous fluid evolving in an open-top container in two dimensions. The fluid mechanics are dictated by the Navier-Stokes equations. The upper boundary of the fluid is free and evolves within the container. The fluid is acted upon by a uniform gravitational field, and capillary forces are accounted for along the free boundary. The triple-phase interfaces where the fluid, air above the vessel, and solid vessel wall come in contact are called contact points, and the angles formed at the contact point are called contact angles. The model that we consider integrates boundary conditions that allow for full motion of the contact points and angles. Equilibrium configurations consist of quiescent fluid within a domain whose upper boundary is given as the graph of a function minimizing a gravity-capillary energy functional, subject to a fixed mass constraint. The equilibrium contact angles can take on any values between $0$ and $pi$ depending on the choice of capillary parameters. The main thrust of the paper is the development of a scheme of a priori estimates that show that solutions emanating from data sufficiently close to the equilibrium exist globally in time and decay to equilibrium at an exponential rate.
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.
We consider a model for the evolution of a mixture of two incompressible and partially immiscible Newtonian fluids in two dimensional bounded domain. More precisely, we address the well-known model H consisting of the Navier-Stokes equation with non-autonomous external forcing term for the (average) fluid velocity, coupled with a convective Cahn-Hilliard equation with polynomial double-well potential describing the evolution of the relative density of atoms of one of the fluids. We study the long term behavior of solutions and prove that the system possesses a pullback exponential attractor. In particular the regularity estimates we obtain depend on the initial data only through fixed powers of their norms and these powers are uniform with respect to the growth of the polynomial potential considered in the Cahn-Hilliard equation.
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 consider a full Navier-Stokes and $Q$-tensor system for incompressible liquid crystal flows of nematic type. In the two dimensional periodic case, we prove the existence and uniqueness of global strong solutions that are uniformly bounded in time. This result is obtained without any smallness assumption on the physical parameter $xi$ that measures the ratio between tumbling and aligning effects of a shear flow exerting over the liquid crystal directors. Moreover, we show the uniqueness of asymptotic limit for each global strong solution as time goes to infinity and provide an uniform estimate on the convergence rate.
