  • a stochastic Lagrangian Representation of the three dimensional incompressible navier stokes equations
    Communications on Pure and Applied Mathematics, 2008
    Co-Authors: Peter Constantin, Gautam Iyer
    Abstract:

    In this paper we derive a probabilistic Representation of the deterministic three-dimensional Navier-Stokes equations based on stochastic Lagrangian paths. The particle trajectories obey SDEs driven by a uniform Wiener process; the inviscid Weber formula for the Euler equations of ideal fluids is used to recover the velocity field. This method admits a self-contained proof of local existence for the nonlinear stochastic system and can be extended to formulate stochastic Representations of related hydrodynamic-type equations, including viscous Burgers equations and Lagrangian-averaged Navier-Stokes alpha models. © 2007 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

  • acoustic versus electromagnetic field theory scalar vector spinor Representations and the emergence of acoustic spin
    arXiv: Classical Physics, 2020
    Co-Authors: Lucas Burns, Konstantin Y Bliokh, Franco Nori, Justin Dressel
    Abstract:

    We construct a novel Lagrangian Representation of acoustic field theory that describes the local vector properties of longitudinal (curl-free) acoustic fields. In particular, this approach accounts for the recently-discovered nonzero spin angular momentum density in inhomogeneous sound fields in fluids or gases. The traditional acoustic Lagrangian Representation with a ${\it scalar}$ potential is unable to describe such vector properties of acoustic fields adequately, which are however observable via local radiation forces and torques on small probe particles. By introducing a displacement ${\it vector}$ potential analogous to the electromagnetic vector potential, we derive the appropriate canonical momentum and spin densities as conserved Noether currents. The results are consistent with recent theoretical analyses and experiments. Furthermore, by an analogy with dual-symmetric electromagnetic field theory that combines electric- and magnetic-potential Representations, we put forward an acoustic ${\it spinor}$ Representation combining the scalar and vector Representations. This approach also includes naturally coupling to sources. The strong analogies between electromagnetism and acoustics suggest further productive inquiry, particularly regarding the nature of the apparent spacetime symmetries inherent to acoustic fields.

  • Steady and Unsteady Navier–Stokes Flow with Lagrangian Differences
    Differential and Difference Equations with Applications, 2018
    Co-Authors: Werner Varnhorn
    Abstract:

    The motion of a viscous incompressible fluid flow in bounded domains with a smooth boundary can be described by the nonlinear Navier–Stokes system (N). This description corresponds to the so-called Eulerian approach. We develop a new approximation method for (N) in both the steady and the nonsteady case by a suitable coupling of the Eulerian and the Lagrangian Representation of the flow, where the latter is defined by the trajectories of the particles of the fluid. The method leads to a sequence of uniquely determined approximate solutions with a high degree of regularity, which contains a convergent subsequence with limit function v such that v is a weak solution on (N).

  • On Eulerian and Lagrangian Representation of steady incompressible fluid flow
    Nonlinear Analysis: Theory Methods & Applications, 1993
    Co-Authors: Werner Varnhorn
    Abstract:

    FOR THE description of fluid flow there are, in principle, two approaches, the Eulerian approach and the Lagrangian approach. The first one describes the flow of its velocity u = (u,(x), v,(x), uJx)) = u(x) in every point x = (xi, x2, x3) of the domain G containing the fluid. The second one uses the trajectory x = (xi(t), x2(t), x3(t)) = x(t) = X(t, x0) of a single particle of fluid, which at initial time t = 0 is located at some point x0 E G. This second approach is of great importance for the numerical analysis and computation of fluid flow [l-4], while the first one has often also been used in connection with theoretical questions [5-81. In the present paper we consider the stationary motion of a viscous incompressible fluid in a bounded domain G c R3 with a sufficiently smooth boundary S. Because for steady flow the streamlines and the trajectories of the fluid particles coincide, both approaches mentioned above are correlated by the autonomous system of characteristic ordinary differential equations
