AbstractGiven an open set with finite perimeter $\Omega \subset {\open R}^n$, we consider the space $LD_\gamma ^{p}(\Omega )$, $1\les p<\infty $, of functions with pth-integrable deformation tensor on Ω and with pth-integrable trace value on the essential boundary of Ω. We establish the continuous embedding $LD_\gamma ^{p}(\Omega )\subset L^{pN/(N-1)}(\Omega )$. The space $LD_\gamma ^{p}(\Omega )$ and this embedding arise naturally in studying the motion of rigid bodies in a viscous, incompressible fluid.

AbstractWe consider the geometrical inverse problem consisting in recovering an unknown obstacle in a viscous incompressible fluid by measurements of the Cauchy force on the exterior boundary. We deal with the case where the fluid equations are the nonstationary Stokes system and using the enclosure method, we can recover the convex hull of the obstacle and the distance from a point to the obstacle. With the same method, we can obtain the same result in the case of a linear fluid-structure system composed by a rigid body and a viscous incompressible fluid. We also tackle the corresponding nonlinear systems: the Navier–Stokes system and a fluid-structure system with free boundary. Using complex spherical waves, we obtain some partial information on the distance from a point to the obstacle.

Slow flow of a viscous incompressible fluid past a slender body of circular crosssection is treated by the method of matched asymptotic expansions. The main result is an integral equation for the force per unit length exerted on the body by the fluid. The novelty is that the body is permitted to twist and dilate in addition to undergoing the translating, bending and stretching, which have been considered by others. The method of derivation is relatively simple, and the resulting integral equation does not involve the limiting processes which occur in the previous work.
