Vector Green's function method for unsteady Navier-Stokes equations (Q1103459): Difference between revisions

The Green's function method is reformulated in general terms to treat vector unsteady and nonlinear equations. The particular expressions of the adjoint linear operator, the Green's formula and the integral representation of the solution are derived for unsteady Navier Stokes equations. The appropriate fundamental solutions for incompressible and for certain compressible flows have been obtained in closed form. Both the positive features and the possible limits of the method are briefly outlined.
