Abstract
This study is concerned with explicit solutions in the Eulerian framework to the three-dimensional nonlinear Euler equations with a free surface and an interface. Starting with a depth-dependent density, continuous within the fluid domain, except across the interface, we present exact radial solutions to the steady water wave problem. While the velocity field and the pressure are given explicitly, the free surface and the interface are determined implicitly by a functional analytic approach. We also prove short-wavelength stability results for these explicit solutions by means of a Wentzel–Kramers–Brillouin ansatz together with a Lyapunov-type stability criterion. We conclude the analysis by proving the Kelvin–Helmholtz instability of the exact solutions.
In this paper, we consider the existence of small- and large-amplitude compressible water waves. These are solutions of the two-dimensional free boundary isentropic Euler equations subjected to a constant gravitational force and neglecting the effects of surface tension. We study periodic and solitary waves beneath vac...
We study the time-asymptotic stability of solutions to the inflow problem for the one-dimensional Navier--Stokes--Fourier system on the half-line. We consider the most generic wave pattern: the superposition of a degenerate boundary layer, a rarefaction, a viscous contact wave, and a viscous shock. More precisely, if t...

We establish the asymptotic stability of planar viscous shock waves for the outflow problem of the three-dimensional barotropic compressible Navier--Stokes equations in a half-space, with periodic boundary conditions imposed in the transverse directions. For a weak shock located sufficiently far from the boundary, we p...

We analyze a thermodynamically consistent diffuse interface model for incompressible two-phase viscous flows with unmatched densities in a smooth bounded domain $\Omega\subset\mathbb{R}^d$ $(d=2,3)$. This model consists of the Navier-Stokes-Voigt equations for the velocity field and a convective Cahn-Hilliard equation...
We consider the full two-dimensional water-wave equations in finite depth, with and without surface tension. Water waves have been studied mathematically for more than two centuries. Reflection symmetry remains a common assumption in constructions of periodic steady waves, although asymmetric profiles have been observe...
We present a novel, spatially two-dimensional (2D) set of equations to study the propagation of linear deep-water surface waves over a general steady three-dimensional (3D) background free surface flow. No assumptions of a flat background free surface, nor of an irrotational background flow, are made. The resulting mod...
