英文摘要：

In this paper we establish rigorously that the family of Burgers vortices of the three-dimensional Navier-Stokes equation is stable for small Reynolds numbers. More precisely, we prove that any solution whose initial condition is a small perturbation of a Burgers vortex will converge toward another Burgers vortex as time goes to infinity, and we give an explicit formula for computing the change in the circulation number (which characterizes the limiting vortex completely.) We also give a rigorous proof of the existence and stability of non-axisymmetric Burgers vortices provided the Reynolds number is sufficiently small, depending on the asymmetry parameter.

Existence and stability of asymmetric Burgers vortices

Burgers vortices are stationary solutions of the three-dimensional Navier-Stokes equations in the presence of a background straining flow. These solutions are given by explicit formulas only when the strain is axisymmetric. In this paper we consider a weakly asymmetric strain and prove in that case that non-axisymmetric vortices exist for all values of the Reynolds number. In the limit of large Reynolds numbers, we recover the asymptotic results of Moffatt, Kida and Ohkitani (1994). We also show that the asymmetric vortices are stable with respect to localized two-dimensional perturbations.

Three-dimensional stability of Burgers vortices

Burgers vortices are explicit stationary solutions of the Navier-Stokes equations which are often used to describe the vortex tubes observed in numerical simulations of three-dimensional turbulence. In this model, the velocity field is a two-dimensional perturbation of a linear straining flow with axial symmetry. The only free parameter is the Reynolds number $Re = Γ/ν$, where $Γ$ is the total circulation of the vortex and $ν$ is the kinematic viscosity. The purpose of this paper is to show that Burgers vortex is asymptotically stable with respect to general three-dimensional perturbations, fo…

On stability of blow-up solutions of the Burgers vortex type for the Navier-Stokes equations with a linear strain

We study the three-dimensional Navier-Stokes equations in the presence of the axisymmetric linear strain, where the strain rate depends on time in a specific manner. It is known that the system admits solutions which blow up in finite time and whose profiles are in a backward self-similar form of the familiar Burgers vortices. In this paper it is shown that the existing stability theory of the Burgers vortex leads to the stability of these blow-up solutions as well. The secondary blow-up is also observed when the strain rate is relatively weak.

Existence and stability of viscous vortices

Vorticity plays a prominent role in the dynamics of incompressible viscous flows. In two-dimensional freely decaying turbulence, after a short transient period, evolution is essentially driven by interactions of viscous vortices, the archetype of which is the self-similar Lamb-Oseen vortex. In three dimensions, amplification of vorticity due to stretching can counterbalance viscous dissipation and produce stable tubular vortices. This phenomenon is illustrated in a famous model originally proposed by Burgers, where a straight vortex tube is produced by a linear uniaxial strain field. In real f…

Stability and Interaction of Vortices in Two-Dimensional Viscous Flows

The aim of these notes is to present in a comprehensive and relatively self-contained way some recent developments in the mathematical analysis of two-dimensional viscous flows. We consider the incompressible Navier-Stokes equations in the whole plane, and assume that the initial vorticity is a finite measure. This general setting includes vortex patches, vortex sheets, and point vortices. We first prove the existence of a unique global solution, for any value of the viscosity parameter, and we investigate its long-time behavior. We next consider the particular case where the initial flow is a…

Enhanced dissipation and axisymmetrization of two-dimensional viscous vortices

This paper is devoted to the stability analysis of the Lamb-Oseen vortex in the regime of high circulation Reynolds numbers. When strongly localized perturbations are applied, it is shown that the vortex relaxes to axisymmetry in a time proportional to $Re^{2/3}$, which is substantially shorter than the diffusion time scale given by the viscosity. This enhanced dissipation effect is due to the differential rotation inside the vortex core. Our result relies on a recent work by Li, Wei, and Zhang, where optimal resolvent estimates for the linearized operator at Oseen's vortex are established. A …

Global stability of vortex solutions of the two-dimensional Navier-Stokes equation

Both experimental and numerical studies of fluid motion indicate that initially localized regions of vorticity tend to evolve into isolated vortices and that these vortices then serve as organizing centers for the flow. In this paper we prove that in two dimensions localized regions of vorticity do evolve toward a vortex. More precisely we prove that any solution of the two-dimensional Navier-Stokes equation whose initial vorticity distribution is integrable converges to an explicit self-similar solution called ``Oseen's vortex''. This implies that the Oseen vortices are dynamically stable for…
