Abstract

J. Leray considered a backward self-similar solution of the Navier-Stokes equations in the hope that it gives us an example of the finite-time blow-up of the three dimensional nonstationary Navier-Stokes equations. However, he showed no example of solutions. We list here some particular solutions and discuss their fluid mechanical properties. We also consider a forward self-similar solution, which describes solutions decaying as time tends to infinity.
