| This thesis deals with some important problems of compressible Navier-Stokes equations, including the well-posedness of the Cauchy problem, the regularity of the weak solutions constructed by Lions and Feireisl, and the dynamics of vacuum states, etc.;First, we show that the most general class of weak solutions to one-dimensional full compressible Navier-Stokes equations do not exhibit vacuum states in a finite time provided that no vacuum is present initially with the minimum physical assumptions on the data. Moreover, two initially non interacting vacuum regions will never meet each other in the future.;Secondly, we construct the local classical solutions to the compressible Navier-Stokes equations for initial vacuum far fields. In this case, we describe the blow-up phenomena of two-dimensional compact support smooth spherically symmetric solutions. When the far field of the initial state is away from vacuum, we obtain the global classical solutions and show the large time blow-up behavior of the gradient of the density.;Finally, we prove that weak solutions to the compressible Navier-Stokes equations with the Navier boundary condition stabilize to static equilibrium states under a fair condition. |
