Estimates on the velocity of a rigid body moving in a fluid

From MaRDI portal
Publication:6434073




Abstract: We obtain estimates of all components of the velocity of a 3D rigid body moving in a viscous incompressible fluid without any symmetry restriction on the shape of the rigid body or the container. The estimates are in terms of suitable norms of the velocity field in a small domain of the fluid only, provided the distance h between the rigid body and the container is small. As a consequence we obtain suitable differential inequalities that control the distance h. The results are obtained using the fact that the vector field under investigation belongs to suitable function spaces, without any use of hydrodynamic equations.
