Weak-Strong uniqueness for compressible Navier-Stokes system with degenerate viscosity coefficient and vacuum in one dimension

We prove weak-strong uniqueness results for the compressible Navier-Stokes system with degenerate viscosity coefficient and with vacuum in one dimension. In other words, we give conditions on the weak solution constructed in \cite{Jiu} so that it is unique. The novelty consists in dealing with initial density $\rho_0$ which contains vacuum. To do this we use the notion of relative entropy developed recently by Germain, Feireisl et al and Mellet and Vasseur (see \cite{PG,Fei,15}) combined with a new formulation of the compressible system (\cite{cras,CPAM,CPAM1,para}) (more precisely we introduce a new effective velocity which makes the system parabolic on the density and hyperbolic on this velocity).Comment: arXiv admin note: text overlap with arXiv:1411.550

Hyperbolic systems of conservation laws in one space dimension

Aim of this paper is to review some basic ideas and recent developments in the theory of strictly hyperbolic systems of conservation laws in one space dimension. The main focus will be on the uniqueness and stability of entropy weak solutions and on the convergence of vanishing viscosity approximations

Relative entropy for compressible Navier-Stokes equations with density dependent viscosities and applications

Recently, A. Vasseur and C. Yu have proved the existence of global entropy-weak solutions to the compressible Navier-Stokes equations with viscosities $\nu(\varrho)=\mu\varrho$ and $\lambda(\varrho)=0$ and a pressure law under the form $p(\varrho)=a\varrho^\gamma$ with $a>0$ and $\gamma>1$ constants. In this note, we propose a non-trivial relative entropy for such system in a periodic box and give some applications. This extends, in some sense, results with constant viscosities initiated by E. Feiersl, B.J. Jin and A. Novotny. We present some mathematical results related to the weak-strong uniqueness, convergence to a dissipative solution of compressible or incompressible Euler equations. As a by-product, this mathematically justifies the convergence of solutions of a viscous shallow water system to solutions of the inviscid shall-water system

Scale interactions in compressible rotating fluids

We study a triple singular limit for the scaled barotropic Navier-Stokes system modeling the motion of a rotating, compressible, and viscous fluid, where the Mach and Rossby numbers are proportional to a small parameter, while the Reynolds number becomes infinite. If the fluid is confined to an infinite slab bounded above and below by two parallel planes, the limit behavior is identified as a purely horizontal motion of an incompressible inviscid fluid, the evolution of which is described by an analogue of the Euler system
