摘要：
在本文中，我们建立了不可压缩纳维-斯托克斯方程（INSE）与最小压力梯度原理（PMPG）之间的双向等价关系。我们证明了一个候选的光滑流动场是INSE的解当且仅当其瞬时演化在每一个瞬间都最小化压力力的范数，以强制不可压缩性。我们展示PMPG正是勒雷-霍尔梅茨投影的最小化形式。任何由INSE产生的可接受瞬时演化（例如分离的起始）必然最小化PMPG成本。相反，任何其他动力学上可行的演化，要求严格更大的压力力以确保相同的约束，都不满足INSE。因此，PMPG提供了一种变分视角，通过该视角可以解释复杂的不可压缩流体行为。在有限维设定中，我们展示PMPG产生与经典伽辽金投影相同的动力学。此外，PMPG为经典伽辽金投影提供了自然的扩展，超越了线性模态展开，容纳非线性和非模态表示。我们随后检查瞬时动力学最小化与稳态变分选择之间的关系，包括其与升力变分理论的联系。受这些观察的启发，我们提出了关于稳定性必要条件和纳维-斯托克斯解在粘性消失极限下收敛到欧拉方程的猜想。
英文摘要：
In this paper, we establish a two-way equivalence between the incompressible Navier- Stokes equation (INSE) and the principle of minimum pressure gradient (PMPG). We prove that a candidate smooth flow field is a solution of the INSE if and only if its instantaneous evolution minimizes, at every instant, the norm of the pressure force, required to enforce incompressibility. We show that the PMPG is precisely the minimization formulation of the Leray-Helmholtz projection. Any admissible instantaneous evolution (e.g., onset of separation) resulting from the INSE necessarily minimizes the PMPG cost. Conversely, any other kinematically admissible evolution, requiring a strictly larger pressure force to ensure the same constraints, does not satisfy the INSE. Thus, the PMPG offers a variational perspective through which intricate incompressible flow behaviors may be interpreted. In a finite-dimensional setting with divergence-free modes, we show that the PMPG yields the same dynamics as classical Galerkin projection. Moreover, the PMPG provides a natural generalization of classical Galerkin projection beyond linear modal expansions, accommodating nonlinear and non-modal representations. We then examine the relation between instantaneous dynamical minimization and steady variational selection, including its connection to the variational theory of lift. Motivated by these observations, we formulate conjectures concerning necessary conditions for stability and the convergence of Navier-Stokes solutions to Euler's in the vanishing-viscosity limit.
