The ultimate goal of these lectures is to present the ergodic theory of the Burgers equation with random force in noncompact setting. Developing such a theory has been considered a hard problem since the first publication on the randomly forced inviscid Burgers [EKMS00]. It was solved in a recent work [BCK] for the forcing of Poissonian type. The Burgers equation is a basic fluid dynamic model,...

Global well-posedness, existence of globally absorbing sets and existence of inertial manifolds is investigated for a class of diffusive Burgers equations. The class includes diffusive Burgers equation with nontrivial forcing, the Burgers-Sivashinsky equation and the QuasiStedy equation of cellular flames. The global dissipativity is proven in 2D for periodic boundary conditions. For the proof ...

We present a noncommutative version of the Burgers equation which possesses the Lax representation and discuss the integrability in detail. We find a noncommutative version of the Cole-Hopf transformation and succeed in the linearization of it. The linearized equation is the (noncommutative) diffusion equation and exactly solved. We also discuss the properties of some exact solutions. The resul...

Waves with constant, nonzero linearized frequency form an interesting class of nondispersive waves whose properties differ from those of nondispersive hyperbolic waves. We propose an inviscid Burgers-Hilbert equation as a model equation for such waves, and give a dimensional argument to show that it models Hamiltonian surface waves with constant frequency. Using the method of multiple scales, w...

This paper investigates the axial unsteady flow of a generalized Burgers’ fluid with fractional constitutive equation in a circular micro-tube, in presence of a time-dependent pressure gradient and an electric field parallel to flow direction and a magnetic field perpendicular on the flow direction. The mathematical model used in this work is based on a time-nonlocal constitutive equation for s...

This paper studies the problem of optimal control of the viscous KdV-Burgers’ equation. We develop a technique to utilize the Cole-Hopf transformation to solve an optimal control problem for the viscous KdV-Burgers’ equation. While the viscous KdV-Burgers’ equation is transformed into a simpler linear equation, the performance index is transformed to a complicated rational expression. We show t...

In this work we generate the numerical solutions of the Burgers’ equation by applying the Crank-Nicolson method directly to the Burgers’ equation, i.e., we do not use Hopf-Cole transformation to reduce Burgers’ equation into the linear heat equation. Absolute error of the present method is compared to the absolute error of the two existing methods for two test problems. The method is also analy...

In this paper we calculate the structure functions of one dimensional Burgers and KPZ equations with and without noise, and we interpret our findings using shocks. Most of our results are based on direct numerical simulation of the KPZ equation. Using the solution of noiseless Burgers equation we show that the exponent cq (< |h(x+r)−h(x)| q >∝ rqcq ) of the structure function of noiseless KPZ i...

A non-isotropic version of phase equations such as the Burgers equation, the K-dV-Burgers equation, the Kuramoto-Sivashinsky equation and the Benney equation in the three-dimensional space is systematically derived from a general reaction-diffusion system by means of the renormalization group method.
