The aim of this work is to introduce, review and discuss similarity and pseudosimilarity solutions to a class of problems in the boundary layer theory. The boundary layer technique is encountered in many aspects of fluid dynamics and aerodynamics. This technique has been created for finding the ...
The linear stability of a boundary layer flow with a spanwise-periodic nonuniformity in the velocity profile is investigated. This flow can be considered a
In this paper, the experimental study on the transition process of a boundary layer on a 45° swept flat plate is performed in the Mach 6.0 hypersonic low-noise wind tunnel. The instantaneous fine structures of the boundary layer on the swept flat plate in streamwise and spanwise planes have ...
Earth’s magnetic field is generated by turbulent motion in its fluid outer core. Although the bulk of the outer core is vigorously convecting and well mixed, some seismic, geomagnetic and geodynamic evidence suggests that a global stably stratified layer exists at the top of Earth’s core. Su...
in this study, the upwind proportion is less than 1.5% (f_{\alpha f}<0.015) in the regions with non-zero Reynolds stresses. Thus, the small-scale near-wall eddies and the large eddies passing through the separated shear layer, which are important in the dynamics of the separating and ...
Two flights in a stable boundary-layer and a close comparison to a measurement tower and a Sodar system depict the accuracy of the wind speed and direction measurements, as well as the turbulence measurements. Mean values, variances, covariance, turbulent kinetic energy and the integral length ...
1. In a solid-state slab laser of the type having a crystal slab body of laser medium, said slab laser medium having an edge cladding of the type wherein a layer of absorber material, having a refractive index matched to the refractive index of the laser medium, is diffusion bonded to ...
Domain Type: Porous Domains Loss Model Isotropic: Losses equal in all directions Directional Loss: For many applications, different losses are induced in the streamwise and transverse directions. (Examples: Honeycombs and Porous plates) Losses are applied using Darcy’s Law Permeability and Loss Coeffi...
The variability in lithospheric thickness and also melt location and character suggests that the lithosphere-asthenosphere boundary is likely dynamic and dictated by mantle dynamics including melt generation and migration. The Earth's lithosphere is defined as its rigid outer layer including both the ...
