Description
We study the motion of a rigid body within a compressible, isentropic, and viscous fluid contained in a fixed bounded domain $\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^3$. The fluid's behavior is described by the Navier-Stokes equations, while the motion of the rigid body is governed by ordinary differential equations representing the conservation of linear and angular momentum. We prescribe a time-independent fluid velocity along the boundary of $\Omega$ and a time-independent fluid density at the inflow boundary of $\Omega$. Additionally, we assume a no-slip boundary condition at the interface between the fluid and the rigid body. Our goal is to establish the existence of a weak solution to the given problem within a time interval where the rigid body does not touch the boundary $\partial\Omega$.
