We develop a model of an electrorheological fluid such that the fluid is considered as an anisotropic one with the viscosity depending on the second invariant of the rate of strain tensor, on the module of the vector of electric field strength, and on the angle between the vectors of velocity and electric field. We study general problems on the flow of such fluids at nonhomogeneous mixed boundary conditions, wherein values of velocities and surface forces are given on different parts of the boundary. We consider the cases where the viscosity function is continuous and singular, equal to infinity, when the second invariant of the rate of strain tensor is equal to zero. In the second case the problem is reduced to a variational inequality. By using the methods of a fixed point, monotonicity, and compactness, we prove existence results for the problems under consideration. Some efficient methods for numerical solution of the problems are examined.

We set up and study a coupled problem on stationary non-isothermal flow of electrorheological fluids. The problem consist in finding functions of velocity, pressure and temperature which satisfy the motion equations, the condition of incompressibility, the equation of the balance of thermal energy and boundary conditions. We introduce the notions of a $P$-generalized solution and generalized solution of the coupled problem. In case of the $P$-generalized solution the dissipation of energy is defined by the regularized velocity field, which leads to a nonlocal model. Under weak conditions, we prove the existence of the $P$ -generalized solution of the coupled problem. The existence of the generalized solution is proved under the conditions on smoothness of the boundary and on smallness of the data of the problem
We derive general conditions of slip of a fluid on the boundary. Under these conditions the velocity of the fluid on the immovable boundary is a function of the normal and tangential components of the force acting on the surface of the fluid. A problem on stationary flow of an electrorheological fluid in which the terms of slip are specified on one part of the boundary and surface forces are given on the other is formulated and studied. Existence of a solution of this problem is proved by using the methods of penalty functions, monotonicity and compactness. It is shown that the method of penalty functions and the Galerkin approximations can be used for the approximate solution of the problem under consideration.
The purpose of the present paper is to derive a partial differential equation (PDE) for the single-time single-point probability density function (PDF) of the velocity field of a turbulent flow. The PDF PDE is a highly non-linear parabolic-transport equation, which depends on two conditional statistical numerics of important physical significance. The PDF PDE is a general form of the classical Reynolds mean flow equation, and is a precise formulation of the PDF transport equation. The PDF PDE provides us with a new method for modelling turbulence. An explicit example is constructed, though the example is seemingly artificial, but it demonstrates the PDF method based on the new PDF PDE.
In this paper, we revise Maxwells constitutive relation and formulate a system of first-order partial differential equations with two parameters for compressible viscoelastic fluid flows. The system is shown to possess a nice conservation-dissipation (relaxation) structure and therefore is symmetrizable hyperbolic. Moreover, for smooth flows we rigorously verify that the revised Maxwells constitutive relations are compatible with Newtons law of viscosity.
After providing a general formulation of Fermion flows within the context of Hudson-Parthasarathy quantum stochastic calculus, we consider the problem of determining the noise coefficients of the Hamiltonian associated with a Fermion flow so as to minimize a naturally associated quadratic performance functional. This extends to Fermion flows results of the authors previously obtained for Boson flows .
