Regularity Criteria for the Generalized MHD Equations

This paper derives regularity criteria for the generalized magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) equations, a system of equations resulting from replacing the Laplacian −Δ in the usual MHD equations by a fractional Laplacian (−Δ) α .

Description
Summary:This paper derives regularity criteria for the generalized magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) equations, a system of equations resulting from replacing the Laplacian −Δ in the usual MHD equations by a fractional Laplacian (−Δ) α . These criteria impose assumptions on the velocity field u alone and sharpen a result of He and Xin ( 2005 ). In addition, these criteria apply to the incompressible Navier-Stokes equations and improve some existing results.
