We construct the Navier–Stokes solution through a composite asymptotic expansion involving solutions of the Euler and Prandtl equations plus an error term. The norm of the error goes to zero with the square root of the viscosity. The Prandtl solution contains a singular term, which influences the regularity of the error. The error term is the sum of a first-order Euler correction, a first-order Prandtl correction, and a further error term.

This means that both precipitation and phase changes between a water-vapour phase (outside a cloud) and a water-vapour-plus-liquid phase (inside a cloud) are taken into account. In the dry case, provided that a Laplace equation is inverted, the quasi-geostrophic equations may be formulated as a nonlocal transport equation for a single scalar variable (the potential vorticity). In the case of the precipitating quasi-geostrophic equations, inverting the Laplacian is replaced by a more challenging adversary known as potential-vorticity-and-moisture inversion. The PDE to invert is nonlinear and piecewise elliptic with jumps in its coefficients across the cloud edge. However, its global ellipticity is a priori unclear due to the dependence of the phase boundary on the unknown itself. This is a free boundary problem where the location of the cloud edge is one of the unknowns. Here we present the first rigorous analysis of this PDE, obtaining existence, uniqueness, and regularity results. In particular the regularity results are nearly sharp. This analysis rests on the discovery of a variational formulation of the inversion. This novel formulation is used to answer a key question for applications: which quantities jump across the interface and which quantities remain continuous? Most notably we show that the gradient of the unknown pressure, or equivalently the streamfunction, is Hölder continuous across the cloud edge.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":649,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Mathematical Fluid Mechanics","volume":"26 2","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.2,"publicationDate":"2024-03-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140324477","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"数学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The main idea of the solution strategy is to block the individual linear systems of equations at each time step into a single all-at-once saddle point problem. By elimination of all velocity unknowns, the resulting implicitly defined equation can then be solved using a global-in-time pressure Schur complement (PSC) iteration. To accelerate the convergence behavior of this iterative scheme, the augmented Lagrangian approach is exploited by modifying the momentum equation for all time steps in a strongly consistent manner. While the introduced discrete grad-div stabilization does not modify the solution of the discretized Oseen equations, the quality of customized PSC preconditioners drastically improves and, hence, guarantees a rapid convergence. This strategy comes at the cost that the involved auxiliary problem for the velocity field becomes ill conditioned so that standard iterative solution strategies are no longer efficient. Therefore, a highly specialized multigrid solver based on modified intergrid transfer operators and an additive block preconditioner is extended to solution of the all-at-once problem. The potential of the proposed overall solution strategy is discussed in several numerical studies as they occur in commonly used linearization techniques for the incompressible Navier–Stokes equations.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":649,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Mathematical Fluid Mechanics","volume":"26 2","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.2,"publicationDate":"2024-03-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://link.springer.com/content/pdf/10.1007/s00021-024-00862-7.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140315797","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"数学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
