چکیده
After a review of the isentropic compressible magnetohydrodynamics (ICMHD) equations, a quaternionic framework for studying the alignment dynamics of a general fluid flow is explained and applied to the ICMHD equations.

متن کاملHopf bifurcation of viscous shock waves in compressible gas- and magnetohydrodynamics
Extending our previous results for artificial viscosity systems, we show, under suitable spectral hypotheses, that shock wave solutions of compressible Navier–Stokes (cNS) and magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) equations undergo Hopf bifurcation to nearby time-periodic solutions. The main new difficulty associated with physical viscosity and the corresponding absence of parabolic smoothing is the need ...
متن کاملStability of Boundary Layers for the Nonisentropic Compressible Circularly Symmetric 2D Flow
In this paper, we study the asymptotic behavior of the circularly symmetric solution to the initial boundary value problem of the compressible non-isentropic Navier-Stokes equations in a two-dimensional exterior domain with impermeable boundary condition when the viscosities and the heat conduction coefficient tend to zero. By multi-scale analysis, we obtain that away from the boundary the comp...

Extending investigations of Yarahmadian and Zumbrun in the strictly parabolic case, we study time-asymptotic stability of arbitrary (possibly large) amplitude noncharacteristic boundary layers of a class of hyperbolic-parabolic systems including the Navier–Stokes equations of compressible gasand magnetohydrodynamics, establishing that linear and nonlinear stability are both equivalent to an Eva...
متن کاملGlobal Classical Solutions and Large-Time Behavior of the Two-Phase Fluid Model
We study the global existence of a unique strong solution and its large-time behavior of a two-phase fluid system consisting of the compressible isothermal Euler equations coupled with compressible isentropic Navier-Stokes equations through a drag forcing term. The coupled system can be derived as the hydrodynamic limit of the Vlasov-Fokker-Planck/isentropic NavierStokes equations with strong l...
