dc.descriptionThere is renewed interest in the question of whether the Navier-Stokes equations (NSE), one of the fundamental models of classical physics and widely used in engineering applications, are actually self-consistent. After recalling the essential physical assumptions inherent in the NSE, the notion of weak solutions, possible implications for the energy conservation law, as well as existence and uniqueness in the incompressible case are discussed. Emphasis will be placed on the possibility of finite time singularities and their consequences for length scales which should be consistent with the continuum hypothesis.
