NONUNIQUENESS OF A SOLUTION TO THE PROBLEM ON MOTION OF A RIGID BODY IN A VISCOUS INCOMPRESSIBLE FLUID

摘要

This paper is devoted to the problem on motion of a rigid body in a viscous incompressible fluid. It is proved that there exist at least two weak solutions of this problem if collisions of the body with the boundary of the flow domain are allowed. These solutions have different behavior of the body after the collision. Namely, for the first solution, the body goes away from the boundary after the collision. In the second solution, the body and the boundary remain in contact.
