Consider inviscid fluids in a channel {-1<y<1}. For the Couette flow v_0=(y,0), the vertical velocity of solutions to the linearized Euler equation at v_0 decays in time. At the nonlinear level, such inviscid damping has not been proved. First, we show that in any (vorticity) H^{s}(s<(3/2)) neighborhood of Couette flow, there exist non-parallel steady flows with arbitrary minimal horizontal period. This implies that nonlinear inviscid damping is not true in any (vorticity) H^{s}(s<(3/2)) neighborhood of Couette flow and for any horizontal period. Indeed, the long time behavior in such neighborhoods are very rich, including nontrivial steady flows, stable and unstable manifolds of nearby unstable shears. Second, in the (vorticity) H^{s}(s>(3/2)) neighborhood of Couette, we show that there exist no non-parallel steadily travelling flows v(x-ct,y), and no unstable shears. This suggests that the long time dynamics in H^{s}(s>(3/2)) neighborhoods of Couette might be much simpler. Such contrasting dynamics in H^{s} spaces with the critical power s=(3/2) is a truly nonlinear phenomena, since the linear inviscid damping near Couette is true for any initial vorticity in L^2.

We consider solutions to the 2d Navier-Stokes equations on $mathbb{T}timesmathbb{R}$ close to the Poiseuille flow, with small viscosity $ u>0$. Our first result concerns a semigroup estimate for the linearized problem. Here we show that the $x$-depen
dent modes of linear solutions decay on a time-scale proportional to $ u^{-1/2}|log u|$. This effect is often referred to as emph{enhanced dissipation} or emph{metastability} since it gives a much faster decay than the regular dissipative time-scale $ u^{-1}$ (this is also the time-scale on which the $x$-independent mode naturally decays). We achieve this using an adaptation of the method of hypocoercivity. Our second result concerns the full nonlinear equations. We show that when the perturbation from the Poiseuille flow is initially of size at most $ u^{3/4+}$, then it remains so for all time. Moreover, the enhanced dissipation also persists in this scenario, so that the $x$-dependent modes of the solution are dissipated on a time scale of order $ u^{-1/2}|log u|$. This transition threshold is established by a bootstrap argument using the semigroup estimate and a careful analysis of the nonlinear term in order to deal with the unboundedness of the domain and the Poiseuille flow itself.
We investigate the instability and nonlinear saturation of temperature-stratified Taylor-Couette flows in a finite height cylindrical gap and calculate angular-momentum transport in the nonlinear regime. The model is based on an incompressible fluid
in Boussinesq approximation with a positive axial temperature gradient applied. While both ingredients itself, the differential rotation as well as the stratification due to the temperature gradient, are stable, together the system becomes subject of the stratorotational instability and nonaxisymmetric flow pattern evolve. This flow configuration transports angular momentum outwards and will therefor be relevant for astrophysical applications. The belonging viscosity $alpha$ coefficient is of the order of unity if the results are adapted to the size of an accretion disc. The strength of the stratification, the fluids Prandtl number and the boundary conditions applied in the simulations are well-suited too for a laboratory experiment using water and a small temperature gradient below five Kelvin. With such a rather easy realizable set-up the SRI and its angular momentum transport could be measured in an experiment.
We study the 2D Navier-Stokes equations linearized around the Couette flow $(y,0)^t$ in the periodic channel $mathbb T times [-1,1]$ with no-slip boundary conditions in the vanishing viscosity $ u to 0$ limit. We split the vorticity evolution into th
e free evolution (without a boundary) and a boundary corrector that is exponentially localized to at most an $O( u^{1/3})$ boundary layer. If the initial vorticity perturbation is supported away from the boundary, we show inviscid damping of both the velocity and the vorticity associated to the boundary layer. For example, our $L^2_t L^1_y$ estimate of the boundary layer vorticity is independent of $ u$, provided the initial data is $H^1$. For $L^2$ data, the loss is only logarithmic in $ u$. Note both such estimates are false for the vorticity in the interior. To the authors knowledge, this inviscid decay of the boundary layer vorticity seems to be a new observation not previously isolated in the literature. Both velocity and vorticity satisfy the expected $O(exp(-delta u^{1/3}alpha^{2/3}t))$ enhanced dissipation in addition to the inviscid damping. Similar, but slightly weaker, results are obtained also for $H^1$ data that is against the boundary initially. For $L^2$ data against the boundary, we at least obtain the boundary layer localization and enhanced dissipation.
In the paper, we study the plane Couette flow of a rarefied gas between two parallel infinite plates at $y=pm L$ moving relative to each other with opposite velocities $(pm alpha L,0,0)$ along the $x$-direction. Assuming that the stationary state tak
es the specific form of $F(y,v_x-alpha y,v_y,v_z)$ with the $x$-component of the molecular velocity sheared linearly along the $y$-direction, such steady flow is governed by a boundary value problem on a steady nonlinear Boltzmann equation driven by an external shear force under the homogeneous non-moving diffuse reflection boundary condition. In case of the Maxwell molecule collisions, we establish the existence of spatially inhomogeneous non-equilibrium stationary solutions to the steady problem for any small enough shear rate $alpha>0$ via an elaborate perturbation approach using Caflischs decomposition together with Guos $L^inftycap L^2$ theory. The result indicates the polynomial tail at large velocities for the stationary distribution. Moreover, the large time asymptotic stability of the stationary solution with an exponential convergence is also obtained and as a consequence the nonnegativity of the steady profile is justified.
We study the flow of an incompressible liquid film down a wavy incline. Applying a Galerkin method with only one ansatz function to the Navier-Stokes equations we derive a second order weighted residual integral boundary layer equation, which in part
icular may be used to describe eddies in the troughs of the wavy bottom. We present numerical results which show that our model is qualitatively and quantitatively accurate in wide ranges of parameters, and we use the model to study some new phenomena, for instance the occurrence of a short wave instability for laminar flows which does not exist over flat bottom.
