Strong dissipative hydrodynamical systems and the operator pencil of S. Krein (Q2032393)

This review article is devoted to the linear operator differential equation \(u''(t)+(A+iG)u'(t)+Bu(t)=f(t)\) provided strong dissipativeness and to spectral properties of the related operator pencil of the form \(L(\lambda)=I-\lambda S-\lambda^{-1}T\) in a Hilbert space. The paper deals with factorization problems and asymptotics for eigenvalues of the pencil. Such type of equations and pencils arise in hydrodynamics. The author considers applications to the following problems: \begin{itemize} \item normal oscillations of viscous liquid in an open vessel, \item normal oscillations of heavy rotating liquid in an open vessel, \item normal convective movements of heavy liquid in an open vessel, \item normal oscillations of joined pendulums with cavities filled with viscous liquids. \end{itemize}
