This project is devoted to the study of multi-dimensional conservation laws arising in fluid dynamics and related applications. In particular, the study focuses on the following topics from the theory of two-dimensional compressible isentropic Euler equations and related partial differential equations: (a) the steady and unsteady transonic flows past an obstacle, (b) a fluid dynamic approach for the Gauss-Codazzi equations of isometric embedding/immersion, (c) two-dimensional solutions with special data of the Euler equations, and (d) the two-dimensional problems arising in magnetohydrodynamics, elastodynamics, and radiation hydrodynamics. The goals of the research are: (a) developing novel analytic methods and numerical schemes to construct multi-dimensional solutions, (b) exploring global structure of solutions, (c) understanding long-time behavior, for example, evolution of singularities and stability, and (d) gaining insights into the multi-dimensional problems, in particular identifying the functional spaces of multi-dimensional solutions.The project is devoted to a mathematical study of some nonlinear partial differential equations governing the motion of compressible fluid flows and related applications. Compressible fluids are ubiquitous in nature, the most common examples being gases. Their study is crucial for understanding aerodynamics, atmospheric science, astrophysics, plasma physics, etc. While the one-dimensional problems are rather well understood, the general theory for the multi-dimensional case is mathematically underdeveloped. The project is to advance the mathematical understanding of the multi-dimensional equations of compressible flows. The aim of the project is to advance knowledge in this fundamental area of mathematics and mechanics, and to provide education and training to students in this important field.

该项目致力于研究流体动力学中的多维守恒定律及其相关应用。特别是，从二维可压缩等熵欧拉方程及相关偏微分方程的理论出发，重点研究了以下课题：（a）定常和非定常跨音速绕流，（B）等距嵌入/浸入Gauss-Codazzi方程的流体动力学方法，（c）Euler方程的特殊数据二维解，（d）磁流体力学、弹性力学和辐射流体力学中的二维问题。研究的目标是：（a）发展新的分析方法和数值方案来构造多维解，（B）探索解的全局结构，（c）理解长期行为，例如奇异性和稳定性的演化，以及（d）获得对多维问题的见解，特别是识别多个功能空间，该项目致力于可压缩流体流动运动的一些非线性偏微分方程的数学研究，应用.可压缩流体在自然界中无处不在，最常见的例子是气体。他们的研究是至关重要的了解空气动力学，大气科学，天体物理学，等离子体物理学等，而一维的问题是相当好的理解，一般理论的多维情况下数学欠发达。该项目旨在提高对可压缩流的多维方程的数学理解。该项目的目的是推进数学和力学这一基本领域的知识，并为这一重要领域的学生提供教育和培训。
