A STUDY ON THE BOUNDARY LAYER FOR THE PLANAR MAGNETOHYDRODYNAMICS SYSTEM

The paper aims to estimate the thickness of the boundary layer for the planar MHD system with vanishing shear viscosity μ. Under some conditions on the initial and boundary data, we show that the thickness is of the order √μ|lnμ|. Note that this estimate holds also for the Navier-Stokes system so th...

Summary:The paper aims to estimate the thickness of the boundary layer for the planar MHD system with vanishing shear viscosity μ. Under some conditions on the initial and boundary data, we show that the thickness is of the order √μ|lnμ|. Note that this estimate holds also for the Navier-Stokes system so that it extends the previous works even without the magnetic effect.
