Asymptotic Stability of Steady Compressible Fluids

This volume introduces a systematic approach to the solution of some mathematical problems that arise in the study of the hyperbolic-parabolic systems of equations that govern the motions of thermodynamic fluids. It is intended for a wide audience of theoretical and applied mathematicians with an interest in compressible flow, capillarity theory, and control theory.The focus is particularly on recent results concerning nonlinear asymptotic stability, which are independent of assumptions about th
