Dynamics Near the Subcritical Transition of the 3D Couette Flow I : Below Threshold Case, Paperback / softback Book

Dynamics Near the Subcritical Transition of the 3D Couette Flow I : Below Threshold Case Paperback / softback

Part of the Memoirs of the American Mathematical Society series

Paperback / softback

Description

The authors study small disturbances to the periodic, plane Couette flow in the 3D incompressible Navier-Stokes equations at high Reynolds number Re.

They prove that for sufficiently regular initial data of size $\epsilon \leq c_0\mathbf {Re}^-1$ for some universal $c_0 > 0$, the solution is global, remains within $O(c_0)$ of the Couette flow in $L^2$, and returns to the Couette flow as $t \rightarrow \infty $.

For times $t \gtrsim \mathbf {Re}^1/3$, the streamwise dependence is damped by a mixing-enhanced dissipation effect and the solution is rapidly attracted to the class of ""2.5 dimensional'' streamwise-independent solutions referred to as streaks.
