Suitable weak solutions to the 3D Navier-Stokes equations are constructed with the Voigt Approximation

In this paper we consider the Navier-Stokes equations supplemented with either the Dirichlet or vorticity-based Navier boundary conditions. We prove that weak solutions obtained as limits of solutions to the Navier-Stokes-Voigt model satisfy the local energy inequality. Moreover, in the periodic setting we prove that if the parameters are chosen in an appropriate way, then we can construct suitable weak solutions trough a Fourier-Galerkin finite-dimensional approximation in the space variables

Global regularity for systems with pp-structure depending on the symmetric gradient

In this paper we study on smooth bounded domains the global regularity (up to the boundary) for weak solutions to systems having $p$-structure depending only on the symmetric part of the gradient.Comment: 19 pages. arXiv admin note: text overlap with arXiv:1607.0629

Convergence of approximate deconvolution models to the mean Magnetohydrodynamics Equations: Analysis of two models

We consider two Large Eddy Simulation (LES) models for the approximation of large scales of the equations of Magnetohydrodynamics (MHD in the sequel). We study two $\alpha$-models, which are obtained adapting to the MHD the approach by Stolz and Adams with van Cittert approximate deconvolution operators. First, we prove existence and uniqueness of a regular weak solution for a system with filtering and deconvolution in both equations. Then we study the behavior of solutions as the deconvolution parameter goes to infinity. The main result of this paper is the convergence to a solution of the filtered MHD equations. In the final section we study also the problem with filtering acting only on the velocity equation
