Long-term behaviour in a chemotaxis-fluid system with logistic source

preprint2016arXivOpen access

Abstract

We consider the coupled chemotaxis Navier-Stokes model with logistic source terms nt+u⋅∇n=Δn−χ∇⋅(n∇c)+κn−μn2 n_t + u\cdot \nabla n = Δn - χ\nabla \cdot (n \nabla c) + κn - μn^2 ct+u⋅∇c=Δc−nc c_t + u\cdot \nabla c = Δc - nc ut+(u⋅∇)u=Δu+∇P+n∇Φ+f,∇⋅u=0 u_t + (u\cdot \nabla)u = Δu +\nabla P + n\nabla Φ+ f, \quad\qquad \nabla \cdot u=0 in a bounded, smooth domain Ω⊂R3Ω\subset \mathbb{R}^3 under homogeneous Neumann boundary conditions for nn and cc and homogeneous Dirichlet boundary conditions for uu and with given functions f∈L∞(Ω×(0,∞))f\in L^\infty(Ω\times(0,\infty)) satisfying certain decay conditions and Φ∈C1+β(Ωˉ)Φ\in C^{1+β}(\barΩ) for some β∈(0,1)β\in(0,1). We construct weak solutions and prove that after some waiting time they become smooth and finally converge to the semi-trivial steady state (κμ,0,0)(\fracκμ,0,0). Keywords: chemotaxis, Navier-Stokes, logistic source, boundedness, large-time behaviour
