Abstract

In this paper we deal with the conditional regularity of the weak solutions of the Navier–Stokes equations on a bounded domain endowed with Navier boundary conditions, Navier-type boundary conditions or Dirichlet boundary conditions. We prove the regularity criteria which are based on the directional derivatives of several fundamental quantities along the streamlines, namely the velocity magnitude, the kinetic energy, the pressure, the velocity field and the Bernoulli pressure. In striking contrast to the known criteria in which the mentioned quantities were differentiated along a fixed vector, our criteria are mostly optimal for the whole range of parameters and have a clear physical meaning.
