The Stationary Navier-Stokes Equations

Having considered the linear Stokes equations, we will now bring back the nonlinear term and consider the nonlinear version of the Stokes system. The solution of these equations can be viewed as the limit to which the solution of the full N-S equations tends as t tends to infinity. Of course no one knows at this point if the solutions of the N-S equations do tend to some limit as t tends to infinity.
