We investigate solution properties of a class of evolutionary partial differential equations (PDEs) with viscous and inviscid regularization. An equation in this class of PDEs can be written as an evolution equation, involving only first-order spatial derivatives, coupled with the Helmholtz equation. A recently developed two-step iterative method (Chiu et al., JCP, 228, (2009), pp. 8034-8052) i...

We consider multidimensional stochastic Burgers equation on the torus T and the whole space R . In both cases we show that for positive viscosity ν > 0 there exists a unique strong global solution in L for p > d. In the case of torus we also establish a uniform in ν a priori estimate and consider a limit ν ↘ 0 for potential solutions. In the case of R uniform with respect to ν a priori estimate...

We consider the generalized Burgers equation with and without a time delay when the boundary conditions are periodic with period 2π. For the generalized Burgers equation without a time delay, that is, ut = νuxx − uux + u+ h(x), 0 < x < 2π, t > 0, u(0, t) = u(2π, t), u(x,0) = u0(x), a Lyapunov function method is used to show boundedness and uniqueness of a steady state solution and global stabil...

The equal width wave (EW) equation is a model partial differential equation for the simulation of one-dimensional wave propagation in nonlinear media with dispersion processes. The EW-Burgers equation models the propagation of nonlinear and dispersive waves with certain dissipative effects. In this work, we derive exact solitary wave solutions for the general form of the EW equation and the gen...

Spatially periodic complex-valued solutions of the Burgers and KdV-Burgers equations are studied in this paper. It is shown that for any sufficiently large time T , there exists an explicit initial data such that its corresponding solution of the Burgers equation blows up at T . In addition, the global convergence and regularity of series solutions is established for initial data satisfying mil...

Burgers’ equation frequently appears in the study of turbulence theory, as well as some other scientific fields. High and low Reynolds numbers play important roles in both modeling and numerical simulation. In this paper, we apply a numerical scheme to solve a two-dimensional time-fractional Burgers equation. The key feature of the proposed method is formed by combining the discontinuous Galerk...

Aspects of the stochastic Burgers equation and their connection with turbulence. Summary. We present results for the 1 dimensional stochastically forced Burgers equation when the spatial range of the forcing varies. As the range of forcing moves from small scales to large scales, the system goes from a chaotic, structureless state to a structured state dominated by shocks. This transition takes...

In this paper, we deal with both nonviscous and viscous Burgers type equations on a bounded interval. We study the global exact controllability of these equations when we have three controls: one control is the right member of the equation and is constant with respect to the space variable, the two others are the boundary values. In a first time, we are interested in nonviscous Burgers type equ...

The molecular structural analysis of capture thread, including its viscid droplets of oriental golden orb-web spider Nephila clavata, has been performed by microscopic FT-IR spectroscopy. The obtained spectra of capture threads with and without viscid droplets indicate that the features in the region of 1400 - 1000 cm-1 will be useful as marker bands for the degree of the dissolving of viscid d...

Consider the viscous Burgers equation on a bounded interval with inhomogeneous Dirichlet boundary conditions. Following the variational framework introduced in [4], we analyze a Lyapunov functional for such equation which gives the large deviations asymptotics of a stochastic interacting particles model associated to the Burgers equation. We discuss the asymptotic behavior of this energy functi...
