It presents a detailed derivation of the linear first- and second-order wave equations derived from the equations of fluid mechanics. The chapter introduces a novel way of looking at the differential operator in the wave equation, appearing in the acoustics literature in the late 1970s, which ...
We provide the rigorous derivation of the wave kinetic equation from the cubic nonlinear Schrödinger (NLS) equationat the kinetic timescale, under a particularscaling lawthat describes the limiting process. This solves a main conjecture in the theory ofwave turbulence, i.e. the kinetic theory o...
I want to derive the 1D-wave equation from the knowledge that what we call a wave takes the form ψ=f(x∓vt)ψ=f(x∓vt). Most physics textbooks will derive it from the tension in a string, etc., but I want to be more general than that. The closest general derivation I have...

We refer to [13, 16] for information about liquid crystals, and the derivation of the equation. A key property of (1.1), and hence also (1.3), is that solutions can loose regularity in finite time, even for smooth initial data, see [10]. The loss of regularity is due to the ...

1989). Equation (8a) shows the effective transport coefficient for the simplest ITG mode with Boltzmann electrons. The factor in front includes off-diagonal contributions. Here, the pinch term prop to εn = 2Ln/R means that transport is reduced towards the axis. Actually also the growth...
