Similarity reductions and new nonlinear exact solutions for the 2D incompressible Euler equations

Original · EN

For the 2D and 3D Euler equations, their existing exact solutions are often in linear form with respect to variables x,y,z. In this paper, the Clarkson-Kruskal reduction method is applied to reduce the 2D incompressible Euler equations to a system of completely solvable ordinary equations, from which several novel nonlinear exact solutions with respect to the variables x and y are found.
