Diffusion-free boundary conditions for the Navier-Stokes equations

Emmanuel Dormy, David Gerard-Varet

We provide a mathematical analysis of the `diffusion-free' boundary conditions recently introduced by Lin and Kerswell for the numerical treatment of inertial waves in a fluid cont…

Improved well-posedness for the Triple-Deck and related models via concavity

David Gerard-Varet, Sameer Iyer, Yasunori Maekawa

We establish linearized well-posedness of the Triple-Deck system in Gevrey- regularity in the tangential variable, under concavity assumptions on the background flow. Due…

On the ill-posedness of the triple deck model

Helge Dietert, David Gérard-Varet

We analyze the stability properties of the so-called triple deck model, a classical refinement of the Prandtl equation to describe boundary layer separation. Combining the methodol…

Optimal Prandtl expansion around concave boundary layer

David Gerard-Varet, Yasunori Maekawa, Nader Masmoudi

We provide an optimal Gevrey stability result for general boundary layer expansions, under a mild concavity condition on the boundary layer profile. Our result generalizes (and eve…

Mild assumptions for the derivation of Einstein's effective viscosity formula

David Gérard-Varet, Richard M. Höfer

We provide a rigorous derivation of Einstein's formula for the effective viscosity of dilute suspensions of rigid balls, , set in a volume of size . So far, most ju…

A simple justification of effective models for conducting or fluid media with dilute spherical inclusions

David Gerard-Varet

We present a gentle approach to the justification of effective media approximations, for PDE's set outside the union of spheres with low volume fraction. To illustrate ou…
