This article deals with implementation of a high-order finite difference scheme for numerical solution of the incompressible Navier-Stokes equations on curvilinear grids. The numerical scheme is based on pseudo-compressibility approach. A fifth-order upwind compact scheme is used to approximate the inviscid fluxes while the discretization of metric and viscous terms is accomplished using sixth-order central compact scheme. An implicit Euler method is used for discretization of the pseudo-time derivative to obtain the steady-state solution. The resulting block tridiagonal matrix system is solved by approximate factorization based alternating direction implicit scheme (AF-ADI) which consists of an alternate sweep in each direction for every pseudo-time step. The convergence and efficiency of the method are evaluated by solving some 2D benchmark problems. Finally, computed results are compared with numerical results in the literature and a good agreement is observed.

In this paper, a boundary control problem for a flow governed by the time-dependent two dimensional Navier-Stokes equations is considered. We derive a mathematical formulation and a relevant process for an appropriate control along the part of the boundary to minimize the drag due to the flow. After showing the existence of an optimal solution, the first order optimality conditions are derived. The strict differentiability of the state solution in regard to the control parameter shall be exposed rigorously, and the necessary conditions along with the system for the optimal solution shall be deduced in conjunction with the evaluation of the first order Gateaux derivative to the performance functional.

We consider the global existence of strong solutions of the 3D incompressible Navier-Stokes equations in a bounded Lipschitz do-main under Dirichlet boundary condition. We present by a very simple argument that a strong solution exists globally when the product of $L^2$ norms of the initial velocity and the gradient of the initial velocity and $L^{p,2}$, $p{\geq}4$ norm of the forcing function are small enough. Our condition is scale invariant and implies many typical known global existence results for small initial data including the sharp dependence of the bound on the volumn of the domain and viscosity. We also present a similar result in the whole domain with slightly stronger condition for the forcing.

In this paper we study the first initial boundary value problem for the 3D Navier-Stokes-Voigt equations with infinite delay. First, we prove the existence and uniqueness of weak solutions to the problem by combining the Galerkin method and the energy method. Then we prove the existence of a compact global attractor for the continuous semigroup associated to the problem. Finally, we study the existence and exponential stability of stationary solutions.

Three dimensional turbulent flow fields around ships are simulated by a numerical method. Reynolds Averaged Navier-Stokes equations are used where Reynolds stresses are approximated by Baldwin-Lomax and Sub-Grid Scale(SGS) turbulence models. Body-fitted coordinate system is introduced to conform three dimensional ship geometries. The governing equations are discretized by a finite volume method. Temporal derivatives are approximated by the forward differencing and the convection terms are approximated by the QUICK or Kawamura scheme. The 2nd-order centered differencing is used for other spatial derivatives. Pressure and velocity fields are simultaneously iterated by the Highly Simplified Marker-And-Cell method. To verify the numerical method and turbulence models, flow fields around ships are simulated and compared to the experiments.

An approach to reduce cancellation errors of the temperature preconditioned Navier-Stokes equations is proposed. This approach is also applied to the conventional preconditioning methods. Adiabatic laminar viscous flows around a circular cylinder are calculated at different Mach numbers. It is shown that a redefinition of total enthalpy for reducing magnitude of the enthalpy remarkably alleviates cancellation problems of the temperature preconditioning.

We consider the global existence of strong solutions of the 3D incompressible Navier-Stokes equations in a thin periodic domain. We present a simple proof that a strong solution exists globally in time when the initial velocity in $H^1$ and the forcing function in $L^p$(0,${\infty}$;$L^2$), $2{\leq}p{\leq}{\infty}$ satisfy certain condition. This condition is basically similar to that by Iftimie and Raugel[7], which covers larger and larger initial data and forcing functions as the thickness of the domain ${\epsilon}$ tends to zero.

In this work, a numerical solution of the incompressible Navier-Stokes equations is proposed. The method suggested is based on an algorithm of discretization by mixed finite elements with a posteriori error estimation of the computed solutions. In order to evaluate the performance of the method, the numerical results are compared with some previously published works or with others coming from commercial code like Adina system.

We consider the global existence of strong solutions of the 3D incompressible Navier-Stokes equations in a long periodic domain. We show by a simple argument that a strong solution exists globally in time when the initial velocity in $H^1$ and the forcing function in $L^p$([0; T);$L^2$), T > 0, $2{\leq}p{\leq}+\infty$ satisfy a certain condition. This condition common appears for the global existence in thin non-periodic domains. Larger and larger initial data and forcing functions satisfy this condition as the thickness of the domain $\epsilon$ tends to zero.

We deal with a boundary control problem for the vorticity minimization, in which the ow is governed by the time-dependent two dimensional incompressible Navier-Stokes equations. We derive a mathematical formulation and a process for an appropriate control along the portion of the boundary to minimize the vorticity motion due to the ow in the fluid domain. After showing the existence of an optimal solution, we derive the optimality system for which optimal solutions may be determined. The differentiability of the state solution in regard to the control parameter shall be conjunct with the necessary conditions for the optimal solutions.
