Well-posedness in critical spaces for the compressible Navier-Stokes equations with density dependent viscosities

In this paper, we prove the local well-posedness in critical Besov spaces for the compressible Navier-Stokes equations with density dependent viscosities under the assumption that the initial density is bounded away from zero.

Optimization with the time-dependent Navier-Stokes equations as constraints

In this paper, optimal distributed control of the time-dependent Navier-Stokes equations is considered. The control problem involves the minimization of a measure of the distance between the velocity field and a given target velocity field. A mixed numerical method involving a quasi-Newton algorithm, a novel calculation of the gradients and an inhomogeneous Navier-Stokes solver, to find the opt...

Compressible Navier-stokes Equations with Temperature Dependent Heat Conductivities

We prove the existence and uniqueness of global strong solutions to the one dimensional, compressible Navier-Stokes system for the viscous and heat conducting ideal polytropic gas flow, when heat conductivity depends on temperature in power law of Chapman-Enskog. The results reported in this article is valid for initial boundary value problem with non-slip and heat insulated boundary along with...

Global Solutions to the Spherically Symmetric Compressible Navier-Stokes Equations with Density-Dependent Viscosity

We consider the exterior problem and the initial boundary value problem for the spherically symmetric isentropic compressible Navier-Stokes equations with density-dependent viscosity coefficient in this paper. For regular initial density, we show that there exists a unique global strong solution to the exterior problem or the initial boundary value problem, respectively. In particular, the stro...
