Abstract

We present two new results in Analysis of Fluids involving the existence of singularities via self-similar profiles and stability analysis around them. The first result is a new proof of the formation of singularities for the Okamoto-Sakajo-Wunsch equation with small parameter, which is done via a stability analysis around an approximate self-similar profile.The second result consists on the finding of new smooth radial self-similar profiles developing singularities for the isentropic compressible Euler equations. This is the first proof of such profile for the monatomic gas case.

Keywords: compressible Euler, Okamoto-Sakajo-Wunsch, self-similar profiles, modulation variables.
