Recent Developments in Theoretical Fluid Mechanics - Winter School, Paseky, 1992

Including previously unpublished, original research material, this comprehensive book analyses topics of fundamental importance in theoretical fluid mechanics. The five papers appearing in this volume are centred around the mathematical theory of the Navier-Stokes equations (incompressible and compressible) and certain selected non-Newtonian modifications.

List of contents

1. Existence and Uniqueness at Low Reynolds Number of Stationary Plane Flow of a Viscous Fluid in Exterior Domains 2. The Divergence, Curl and Stokes Operators in Exterior Domains of R3 3. Models for Laminar and Turbulent Flows of Viscous and Nonlinear Viscous Fluids 4. Large-Time Behavior of One-Dimensional Motions of Compressible Viscous Gas 5. Mechanics of Non—Newtonian Fluids

Summary

This book deals with some basic questions related to existence and stability of one-dimensional flow of a compressible fluid. It examines the two-dimensional exterior problem for the steady-state Navier-Stokes equations.
