Abstract

In this work, we consider the evolutive problem for the incompressible Navier–Stokes equations with a general diffusion which can be fully anisotropic. The existence of weak solutions is proved for the associated initial problem supplemented with no-slip boundary conditions. We prove also the properties of extinction in a finite time, exponential time decay and power time decay. With this respect, we consider the important case of a forces fields with possible different behavior in distinct directions. Perturbations of the asymptotically stable equilibrium are established as well.
