In this paper, we investigate the dynamic stability of certain steady-state solutions to the periodic boundary value problem for compressible isentropic Navier-Stokes system under the van der Waals equation of state in one space dimension. These steady-state solutions correspond to the admissible solutions describing two-phase coexisting phase transitions, where the integral average of the specific volume belongs to the Maxwell region. We first construct a semi-discrete staggered grid difference scheme to prove the local existence of solutions to the periodic problem, without imposing the standard stability hypothesis p_v<0. Then, by virtue of rigorous piecewise a priori estimates, we demonstrate that the periodic boundary value problem for van der Waals fluids possesses a global solution existing for all time, and this solution converges uniformly to the admissible steady state as time tends to infinity. This result firmly establishes the nonlinear stability of the admissible phase-transition solutions under general small initial disturbances.
In this paper, the large time behavior of the solutions for the Cauchy problem to the one-dimensional compressible Navier-Stokes system with the motion of a viscous heat-conducting perfect polytropic gas is investigated.Our result shows that the combination of a viscous contact wave with rarefaction waves is asymptotically stable, when the large initial disturbance of the density, velocity and temperature belong to H^1(ℝ), L^2(ℝ)∩ L^4(ℝ) and L^2(ℝ), provided the strength of the combination waves is suitably small. In addition, the initial disturbance on the derivation of velocity and temperature belong to L^2(ℝ) can be arbitrarily large.
In this paper, we investigate the well-posedness of the Navier-Stokes/Allen-Cahn system for compressible van der Waals immiscible two-phase fluids. This kind of immiscible two-phase flow has the characteristic that the two phases remain independent and have a clear diffusion interface; the pressure is given by the famous van der Waals equation of state, which is nonmonotonic with respect to density. Both physical observation and numerical calculation show that the non-monotonicity of the pressure leads to the phase transition of the fluids. For the Cauchy problem of compressible Navier-Stokes/Allen-Cahn van der Waals fluids in one space dimension, we establish the global existence and uniqueness of the strong solution for initial density without vacuum states. These conclusions partially confirm the numerical results for the van der Waals fluid given by Hsieh-Wang [SIAM J.Appl.Math.(1997)]. The proof is given by an elementary but technical L2 energy method. It should be pointed out that the artificial viscous term about density introduced by Hsieh-Wang, which had to be added to control the short wave-length instability, is no longer needed in our conclusions.
We investigate the well-posedness of the periodic boundary value problem for the steady compressible isentropic Navier-Stokes system under the van der Waals equation of state. The main difficulty arises from the non-monotonicity of the pressure, which induces liquid-vapor phase transitions and consequently leads to both physical instabilities and mathematical non-uniqueness of solutions. It is shown that the occurrence of a phase transition is determined by whether the integral average of the specific volume lies inside the gas-liquid coexistence region defined by the Maxwell construction. By introducing an artificial viscosity, we construct an approximate system. When the integral average of the specific volume falls within the Maxwell region, the approximate solution converges, as the artificial viscosity tends to zero, to the equilibrium states given by Maxwell's construction, with the diffuse interface sharpening into a discontinuity. Conversely, if the integral average of the specific volume lies outside this region, the limiting solution remains outside as well, meaning that no phase transition occurs. These results demonstrate that the non-monotonicity of the pressure, combined with the condition that the integral average of the specific volume belongs to the Maxwell region, can act as a nucleation mechanism for phase transitions in the isentropic gas-liquid problem. Furthermore, the proposed approximation not only offers a regularized framework for describing phase transitions but also provides, from a rigorous mathematical viewpoint, a definition of admissible solutions related to phase transitions. The detailed proof relies on the artificial viscosity method, the calculus of variations, the anti-derivative technique, phase-plane analysis, and the level-set method.
This study establishes the global well-posedness of the compressible non-isentropic Navier-Stokes/Allen-Cahn system governed by the van der Waals equation of state $p(ρ,θ)=- aρ^2+\frac{Rθρ}{1-bρ}$ and degenerate thermal conductivity $κ(θ)=\tildeκθ^β$, where $p$, $ρ$ and $θ$ are the pressure, the density and the temperature of the flow respectively, and $a,b,R,\tildeκ$ are positive constants related to the physical properties of the flow. Navier-Stokes/Allen-Cahn system models immiscible two-phase flow with diffusive interfaces, where the non-monotonic pressure-density relationship in the van der Waals equation drives gas-liquid phase transitions. By developing a refined $L^2$-energy framework, we prove the existence and uniqueness of global strong solutions to the one-dimensional Cauchy problem for non-vacuum and finite-temperature initial data, without imposing smallness restrictions on the initial conditions. The findings demonstrate that despite non-monotonic pressure inducing substantial density fluctuations and triggering phase transitions, all physical quantities remain bounded over finite time intervals.
The singular limit problem of diffusion interface thickness approaching zero for a one-dimensional model system associated with compressible immiscible two-phase flow is investigated. The contact discontinuity is proved to be the sharp interface limit, provided the initial disturbance is suitably small. In particular, whether the interface position coincides exactly with the discontinuity position of the contact discontinuity wave is determined by the phase transition.
The Cauchy problem for non-isentropic compressible Navier-Stokes/Allen-Cahn system with degenerate heat-conductivity κ (θ) = κ̃θ ^β in 1-D is discussed in this paper. This system is widely used to describe the motion of immiscible two-phase flow with diffused interface. The well-posedness for strong solution of this problem is established with the H1 initial data for density, temperature, velocity, and the H2 initial data for phase field. The result shows that no discontinuity of the phase field, vacuum, shock wave, mass or heat concentration will be developed at any finite time in the whole space. From the hydrodynamic point of view, this means that no matter how complex the interaction between the hydrodynamic and phase-field effects, phase separation will not occur, but the phase transition is possible.
This paper is concerned with the large time behavior of the solutions to the Cauchy problem for the one-dimensional compressible Navier-Stokes/Allen-Cahn system with the immiscible two-phase flow initially located near the phase separation state. Under the assumption that the initial data is a small perturbation of the constant state, we prove the global existence and uniqueness of the solutions and establish the time decay rates of the solution as well as its higher-order spatial derivatives. Moreover, we derive that the solutions of the system are time asymptotically approximated by the solutions of the modified parabolic system and obtain decay rates in L-2 and L-1. Furthermore, we show that the solution of the system is time asymptotically approximated in L-p (1 <= p <= + infinity) by the diffusion Waves.
In this paper, the compressible immiscible two-phase flow with relaxation is investigated, this model can be regarded as a natural modification of Jin-Xin relaxation scheme proposed and developed by S.Jin and Z.P.Xin([Comm.Pure Appl.Math., 48,1995]) in view of the numerical approximation of conservation laws. Given any entropy solution consists of two different families of shocks interacting at some positive time for the standard two-phase compressible Euler equations, it is proved that such entropy solution is the sharp interface limit for a family global strong solutions of the modified Jin-Xin relaxation scheme for Navier-Stokes/Allen-Cahn system, here the relaxation time is selected as the thickness of the interface, weighted estimation and improved antiderivative method are used in the proof. Moreover, the simulation results are given by this modified Jin-Xin relaxation scheme method. Both numerical and theoretical results show that, the interacting shock waves can pass through the interface without any effect.
In this paper, we study the large time behavior and sharp interface limit of the Cauchy problem for compressible Navier-Stokes/Allen-Cahn system with interaction shock waves in the same family. This system is an important mathematical model for describing the motion of immiscible two-phase flow. The results show that, if the initial density and velocity are near the superposition of two shock waves in the same family, then there exists a unique global solution to the compressible Navier-Stokes/Allen-Cahn system, and this solution asymptotically converges to the superposition of the viscous shock wave and rarefaction wave which moving in opposite directions. Moreover, this global-in-time solution converges to the entropy solution of p-system in L^∞-norm as the thickness of the diffusion interface tends to zero.
We deal with the barotropic compressible magnetohydrodynamic equations in three-dimensional (3D) bounded domain with slip boundary condition and vacuum. By a series of a priori estimates, especially the boundary estimates, we prove the global well-posedness of classical solution and the exponential decay rate to the initial-boundary-value problem of this system for the regular initial data with small energy but possibly large oscillations. The initial density of such a classical solution is allowed to contain vacuum states. Moreover, it is also shown that the oscillation of the density will grow unboundedly with an exponential rate when the initial state contains vacuum.
We consider the initial-boundary-value problem of the isentropic compressible Navier-Stokes-Poisson equations subject to large and non-flat doping profile in 3D bounded domain with slip boundary condition and vacuum. The global well-posedness of classical solution is established with small initial energy but possibly large oscillations and vacuum. The steady state (except velocity) and the doping profile are allowed to be of large variation.
This paper is concerned with the sharp interface limit of Cauchy problem for the one-dimensional compressible Navier-Stokes/Allen-Cahn system with a composite wave consisting of the superposition of a rarefaction wave and a shock wave. Under the assumption that the viscosity coefficient and the reciprocal of mobility coefficient are directly proportional to the interface thickness, we first convert the sharp interface limit of the system into the large time behavior of the composite wave via a natural scaling. Then we prove that the composite wave is asymptotically stable under the small initial perturbations and the small strength of the rarefaction and shock wave. Finally, we show the solution of the Cauchy problem exists for all time, and converges to the composite wave solution of the corresponding Euler equations as the thickness of the interface tends to zero. The proof is mainly based on the energy method and the relative entropy.
This paper is concerned with a diffuse interface model called Navier-Stokes/CahnHilliard system.This model is usually used to describe the motion of immiscible two-phase flows with a diffusion interface.For the periodic boundary value problem of this system in torus T~3,we prove that there exists a global unique strong solution near the phase separation state,which means that no vacuum,shock wave,mass concentration,interface collision or rupture will be developed in finite time.Furthermore,we establish the large time behavior of the global strong solution of this system.In particular,we find that the phase field decays algebraically to the phase separation state.
The generalized Hall-MHD system in the 3D whole space is studied. A new blowup criterion just in term of the deformation tensor is given.
This paper is concerned with the large time behavior of the Cauchy problem for Navier-Stokes/Allen-Cahn system describing the interface motion of immiscible two-phase flow in 3-D. The existence and uniqueness of global solutions and the stability of the phase separation state are proved under the small initial perturbations. Moreover, the optimal time decay rates are obtained for higher-order spatial derivatives of density, velocity and phase. Our results imply that if the immiscible two-phase flow is initially located near the phase separation state, then under small perturbation conditions, the solution exists globally and decays algebraically to the complete separation state of the two-phase flow, that is, there will be no interface fracture, vacuum, shock wave, mass concentration at any time, and the interface thickness tends to zero as the time t → +∞.
In this paper, the sharp interface limit for the diffusion interface model system of immis-cible two-phase flow called compressible Navier-Stokes/Allen-Cahn system is studied in one dimension. The results show that, for the initial perturbations with small energy but possibly large oscillations of shock wave solutions, and the strength of initial phase field is allowed to vary arbitrarily within its physical meaning, then the sharp interface limit of the compressible Navier-Stokes/Allen-Cahn system is the standard two-phase compressible Navier-Stokes equations.
In this paper, we focus on the immiscible compressible two-phase ow described by the coupled compressible Navier-Stokes system and the modi ed Allen-Cahn equations. The generalized Navier boundary condition and the relaxation boundary condition are established in order to solve the problem of moving contact lines on the solid boundary by using the principle of minimum energy dissipation. The existence and uniqueness for local strong solution in three dimensional bounded domain for this type of boundary value problem is obtained by the elementary energy method and the maximum principle.
In this paper, we study the barotropic compressible magnetohydrodynamic equations with the shear viscosity being a positive constant and the bulk one being proportional to a power of the density in a general two-dimensional (2D) bounded simply connected domain. For initial density allowed to vanish, we prove that the initial-boundary-value problem of a 2D compressible MHD system admits the global strong and weak solutions without any restrictions on the size of initial data provided the shear viscosity is a positive constant and the bulk one is \lambda = \rho \beta with \beta > 4/3. As we known, this is the first result concerning the global existence of strong solutions to the compressible MHD system in general two-dimensional bounded domains with large initial data and vacuum.
This paper is concerned with a diffuse interface model for the gas-liquid phase transition. The model consists of the barotropic compressible Navier-Stokes equations and a modified Cahn-Hilliard equation. For the initial boundary value problem in torus T (d = 2, 3), we prove that there exists a global unique smooth solution under the assumptions of small initial perturbations. Moreover, we show the large-time behavior for density, velocity and mass concentration difference of the mixture fluids. MSC 2020: 35B40, 35B65, 35L65, 76N05, 76N10, 76T10.
