Uniform regularity and vanishing viscosity limit for the free surface Navier-Stokes equations
Nader Masmoudi, Frédéric Rousset 1
(2012-02-03)

We study the inviscid limit of the free boundary Navier-Stokes equations. We prove the existence of solutions on a uniform time interval by using a suitable functional framework based on Sobolev conormal spaces. This allows us to use a strong compactness argument to justify the inviscid limit. Our approach does not rely on the justification of asymptotic expansions. In particular, we get a new existence result for the Euler equations with free surface from the one for Navier-Stokes.
