STABILITY OF THE RAREFACTION WAVE IN THE SINGULAR LIMIT OF A SHARP INTERFACE PROBLEM FOR THE COMPRESSIBLE NAVIER-STOKES/ALLEN-CAHN SYSTEM

This paper is concerned with the global well-posedness of the solution to the compressible Navier-Stokes/Allen-Cahn system and its sharp interface limit in one-dimensional space.For the perturbations with small energy but possibly large oscillations of rarefaction wave solutions near phase separation,and where the strength of the initial phase field could be arbitrarily large,we prove that the solution of the Cauchy problem exists for all time,and converges to the centered rarefaction wave solution of the corresponding standard two-phase Euler equation as the viscosity and the thickness of the interface tend to zero.The proof is mainly based on a scaling argument and a basic energy method.

GLOBAL SOLUTIONS TO 1D COMPRESSIBLE NAVIER-STOKES/ALLEN-CAHN SYSTEM WITH DENSITY-DEPENDENT VISCOSITY AND FREE-BOUNDARY

This paper is concerned with the Navier-Stokes/Allen-Cahn system,which is used to model the dynamics of immiscible two-phase flows.We consider a 1D free boundary problem and assume that the viscosity coefficient depends on the density in the form ofη(ρ)=ρ^(α).The existence of unique global H^(2m)-solutions(m∈N)to the free boundary problem is proven for when 0<α<1/4.Furthermore,we obtain the global C^(∞)-solutions if the initial data is smooth.

INTERFACE BEHAVIOR AND DECAY RATES OF COMPRESSIBLE NAVIER-STOKES SYSTEM WITH DENSITY-DEPENDENT VISCOSITY AND A VACUUM

In this paper,we study the one-dimensional motion of viscous gas near a vacuum,with the gas connecting to a vacuum state with a jump in density.The interface behavior,the pointwise decay rates of the density function and the expanding rates of the interface are obtained with the viscosity coefficientμ(ρ)=ρ^(α)for any 0<α<1;this includes the timeweighted boundedness from below and above.The smoothness of the solution is discussed.Moreover,we construct a class of self-similar classical solutions which exhibit some interesting properties,such as optimal estimates.The present paper extends the results in[Luo T,Xin Z P,Yang T.SIAM J Math Anal,2000,31(6):1175-1191]to the jump boundary conditions case with density-dependent viscosity.

From Hölder Continuous Solutions of 3D Incompressible Navier-Stokes Equations to No-Finite Time Blowup on [ 0,∞ ]

This article gives a general model using specific periodic special functions, that is, degenerate elliptic Weierstrass P functions composed with the LambertW function, whose presence in the governing equations through the forcing terms simplify the periodic Navier Stokes equations (PNS) at the centers of arbitrary r balls of the 3-Torus. The continuity equation is satisfied together with spatially periodic boundary conditions. The yicomponent forcing terms consist of a function F as part of its expression that is arbitrarily small in an r ball where it is associated with a singular forcing expression both for inviscid and viscous cases. As a result, a significant simplification occurs with a v3(vifor all velocity components) only governing PDE resulting. The extension of three restricted subspaces in each of the principal directions in the Cartesian plane is shown as the Cartesian product ℋ=Jx,t×Jy,t×Jz,t. On each of these subspaces vi,i=1,2,3is continuous and there exists a linear independent subspace associated with the argument of the W function. Here the 3-Torus is built up from each compact segment of length 2R on each of the axes on the 3 principal directions x, y, and z. The form of the scaled velocities for non zero scaled δis related to the definition of the W function such that e−W(ξ)=W(ξ)ξwhere ξdepends on t and proportional to δ→0for infinite time t. The ratio Wξis equal to 1, making the limit δ→0finite and well defined. Considering r balls where the function F=(x−ai)2+(y−bi)2+(z−ci)2−ηset equal to −1e+rwhere r>0. is such that the forcing is singular at every distance r of centres of cubes each containing an r-ball. At the centre of the balls, the forcing is infinite. The main idea is that a system of singular initial value problems with infinite forcing is to be solved for where the velocities are shown to be locally Hölder continuous. It is proven that the limit of these singular problems shifts the finite time blowup time ti∗for first and higher derivatives to t=∞thereby indicating that there is no finite time blowup. Results in the literature can provide a systematic approach to study both large space and time behaviour for singular solutions to the Navier Stokes equations. Among the references, it has been shown that mathematical tools can be applied to study the asymptotic properties of solutions.

ON LOCAL CONTROLLABILITY FOR COMPRESSIBLE NAVIER-STOKES EQUATIONS WITH DENSITY DEPENDENT VISCOSITIES

In this paper,we study the controllability of compressible Navier-Stokes equations with density dependent viscosities.For when the shear viscosityμis a positive constant and the bulk viscosityλis a function of the density,it is proven that the system is exactly locally controllable to a constant target trajectory by using boundary control functions.

GLOBAL SOLUTIONS TO THE 2D COMPRESSIBLE NAVIER-STOKES EQUATIONS WITH SOME LARGE INITIAL DATA

We consider the global well-posedness of strong solutions to the Cauchy problem of compressible barotropic Navier-Stokes equations in R^(2). By exploiting the global-in-time estimate to the two-dimensional(2D for short) classical incompressible Navier-Stokes equations and using techniques developed in(SIAM J Math Anal, 2020, 52(2): 1806–1843), we derive the global existence of solutions provided that the initial data satisfies some smallness condition. In particular, the initial velocity with some arbitrary Besov norm of potential part Pu_0 and large high oscillation are allowed in our results. Moreover, we also construct an example with the initial data involving such a smallness condition, but with a norm that is arbitrarily large.

THE LOW MACH NUMBER LIMIT FOR ISENTROPIC COMPRESSIBLE NAVIER-STOKES EQUATIONS WITH A REVISED MAXWELL'S LAW

We investigate the low Mach number limit for the isentropic compressible NavierStokes equations with a revised Maxwell's law(with Galilean invariance) in R^(3). By applying the uniform estimates of the error system, it is proven that the solutions of the isentropic Navier-Stokes equations with a revised Maxwell's law converge to that of the incompressible Navier-Stokes equations as the Mach number tends to zero. Moreover, the convergence rates are also obtained.

TIME PERIODIC SOLUTION TO THE COMPRESSIBLE NAVIER-STOKES EQUATIONS IN A PERIODIC DOMAIN

This article is concerned with the time periodic solution to the isentropic compressible Navier-Stokes equations in a periodic domain. Using an approach of parabolic regularization, we first obtain the existence of the time periodic solution to a regularized problem under some smallness and symmetry assumptions on the external force. The result for the original compressible Navier-Stokes equations is then obtained by a limiting process. The uniqueness of the periodic solution is also given.

GLOBAL CLASSICAL SOLUTION TO THE CAUCHY PROBLEM OF THE 3-D COMPRESSIBLE NAVIER-STOKES EQUATIONS WITH DENSITY-DEPENDENT VISCOSITY

In this paper, we consider the global existence of classical solution to the 3-D compressible Navier-Stokes equations with a density-dependent viscosity coefficient λ(ρ)provided that the initial energy is small in some sense. In our result, we give a relation between the initial energy and the viscosity coefficient μ, and it shows that the initial energy can be large if the coefficient of the viscosity μ is taken to be large, which implies that large viscosity μ means large solution.

ASYMPTOTIC BEHAVIOR OF SOLUTIONS TOWARD THE SUPERPOSITION OF CONTACT DISCONTINUITY AND SHOCK WAVE FOR COMPRESSIBLE NAVIER-STOKES EQUATIONS WITH FREE BOUNDARY

A free boundary problem for the one-dimensional compressible Navier-Stokes equations is investigated. The asymptotic behavior of solutions toward the superposition of contact discontinuity and shock wave is established under some smallness conditions. To do this, we first construct a new viscous contact wave such that the momentum equation is satisfied exactly and then determine the shift of the viscous shock wave. By using them together with an inequality concerning the heat kernel in the half space, we obtain the desired a priori estimates. The proof is based on the elementary energy method by the anti-derivative argument.

In this article, we investigate the global stability of the wave patterns with the superposition of viscous contact wave and rarefaction wave for the one-dimensional compressible Navier-Stokes equations with a free boundary. It is shown that for the ideal polytropic gas, the superposition of the viscous contact wave with rarefaction wave is nonlinearly stable for the free boundary problem under the large initial perturbations for any γ 〉 1 with V being the adiabatic exponent provided that the wave strength is suitably small.

We establish the global existence and uniqueness of classical solutions to the Cauchy problem for the 3-D compressible Navier-Stokes equations under the assumption that the initial density ｜｜po｜｜L∞ is appropriate small and 1 〈 γ 〈 6/5. Here the initial density could have vacuum and we do not require that the initial energy is small.

ZERO DISSIPATION LIMIT TO A RIEMANN SOLUTION FOR THE COMPRESSIBLE NAVIER-STOKES SYSTEM OF GENERAL GAS

For the general gas including ideal polytropic gas, we study the zero dissipation limit problem of the full 1-D compressible Navier-Stokes equations toward the superposition of contact discontinuity and two rarefaction waves. In the case of both smooth and Riemann initial data, we show that if the solutions to the corresponding Euler system consist of the composite wave of two rarefaction wave and contact discontinuity, then there exist solutions to Navier-Stokes equations which converge to the Riemman solutions away from the initial layer with a decay rate in any fixed time interval as the viscosity and the heat-conductivity coefficients tend to zero. The proof is based on scaling arguments, the construction of the approximate profiles and delicate energy estimates. Notice that we have no need to restrict the strengths of the contact discontinuity and rarefaction waves to be small.

Note that the initial data can be arbitrarily large to contain vacuum states.

CONVERGENCE RATES FOR THE COMPRESSIBLE NAVIER-STOKES EQUATIONS WITH GENERAL FORCES

For the viscous and heat-conductive fluids governed by the compressible Navier- Stokes equations with external force of general form in R^3, there exist nontrivial stationary solutions provided the external forces are small in suitable norms, which was studied in article [15], and there we also proved the global in time stability of the stationary solutions with respect to initial data in H^3-framework. In this article, the authors investigate the rates of convergence of nonstationary solutions to the corresponding stationary solutions when the initial data are small in H^3 and bounded in L6/5.

UNSTEADY/STEADY NUMERICAL SIMULATION OF THREE-DIMENSIONAL INCOMPRESSIBLE NAVIER-STOKES EQUATIONS ON ARTIFICIAL COMPRESSIBILITY

A mixed algorithm of central and upwind difference scheme for the solution of steady/unsteady incompressible Navier-Stokes equations is presented. The algorithm is based on the method of artificial compressibility and uses a third-order flux-difference splitting technique for the convective terms and the second-order central difference for the viscous terms. The numerical flux of semi-discrete equations is computed by using the Roe approximation. Time accuracy is obtained in the numerical solutions by subiterating the equations in pseudotime for each physical time step. The algebraic turbulence model of Baldwin-Lomax is ulsed in this work. As examples, the solutions of flow through two dimensional flat, airfoil, prolate spheroid and cerebral aneurysm are computed and the results are compared with experimental data. The results show that the coefficient of pressure and skin friction are agreement with experimental data, the largest discrepancy occur in the separation region where the lagebraic turbulence model of Baldwin-Lomax could not exactly predict the flow.
