Notizen:
The incompressible Navier-Stokes equations - and their thermal convection and stratified flow analogue, the Boussinesq equations - possess solutions in bounded domains only when appropriate/legitimate boundary conditions (BCs) are appended at all points on the domain boundary. When the boundary - or, more commonly, a portion of it - is not endowed with a Dirichlet BC, we are faced with selecting what are called open boundary conditions (OBCs), because the fluid may presumably enter or leave the domain through such boundaries. The two minisymposia on OBCs that are summarized in this paper had the objective of finding the best OBCs for a small subset of two-dimensional test problems. This objective, which of course is not really well-defined, was not met (we believe), but the contributions obtained probably raised many more questions/issues than were resolved - notable among them being the advent of a new class of OBCs that we call FBCs (fuzzy boundary conditions).
