Existence and Stability for the 3D Linearized Constant-Coefficient Incompressible Current-Vortex Sheets

چکیده
We consider the free boundary problem for current-vortex sheets in ideal incompressible magnetohydrodynamics. The problem of current-vortex sheets arises naturally, for instance, in geophysics and astrophysics. We prove the existence of a unique solution to the constant-coefficient linearized problem and an a priori estimate with no loss of derivatives. This is a preliminary result to the study of linearized variable-coefficient current-vortex sheets, a first step to prove the existence of solutions to the nonlinear problem.

Existence and Stability of Compressible Current-Vortex Sheets in Three-Dimensional Magnetohydrodynamics
Compressible vortex sheets are fundamental waves, along with shocks and rarefaction waves, in entropy solutions to multidimensional hyperbolic systems of conservation laws. Understanding the behavior of compressible vortex sheets is an important step towards our full understanding of fluid motions and the behavior of entropy solutions. For the Euler equations in two-dimensional gas dynamics, th...
متن کاملDissipative Symmetrizers of Hyperbolic Problems and Their Applications to Shock Waves and Characteristic Discontinuities
By introducing the notations of dissipative and strictly dissipative p-symmetrizers of initial-boundary-value problems for linear hyperbolic systems we formalize the dissipative integrals technique [A. Blokhin, Yu. Trakhinin, in Handbook of Mathematical Fluid Dynamics, Vol. 1, North-Holland, Amsterdam, 2002, pp. 545–652] applied earlier to shock waves and characteristic discontinuities for vari...
متن کاملNumerical Simulation of the Incompressible Laminar Flow Over a Square Cylinder
Simulation of fluid flow over a square cylinder can be performed in order to understand the physics of the flow over bluff bodies. In the current study, incompressible laminar flow over a confined square cylinder, with variable blockage factor has been simulated numerically, using computational fluid dynamics (CFD). The focus has been on vortex-induced vibration (VIV) of the cylinder. Vorticity...
متن کاملSingularity formation for complex solutions of the 3D incompressible Euler equations
Moore 's approximation method, first formulated for vortex sheets, is generalized and applied to axi-symmetric flow with swirl and with smooth initial data. The approximation preserves the forward cascade of energy but neglects any backflow of energy. It splits the Euler equations into two sets of equations: one for u . = u+(r, z, t) containing all non-negative wavenumbers (in z) and the second...
متن کاملLagrangian Theory for 3D Vortex Sheets with Axial or Helical Symmetry∗
Consider a three-dimensional vortex sheet in inviscid, incompressible flow which is irrotational away from the sheet. We derive an equation for the evolution of a vortex sheet in Lagrangian coordinates, i.e. an equation that is restricted to the sheet itself and is analogous to the Birkhoff-Rott equation for a two-dimensional (planar) sheet. This general equation is specialized to sheets with a...
