Opis

The lectures collected for this volume were given during a workshop entitled, Semi-analytic Methods for the Navier Stokes Equations held at the CRM in Montreal. The title reflects the current reality in fluid dynamics: Navier-Stokes equations (NSE) describe the behaviour of fluid in a wide range of physical situations, the solutions of these equations are sufficiently complicated, so that another level of analysis is clearly needed. The fundamental problem is not just to solve the NSE, but also to understand what the solutions mean.
