A Brief Note on Linearized, Unsteady, Supercavitating Flows

A Note on Burst Event Detection in Unsteady Natural Flows

Turbulent bursting events play a major role in natural systems in terms of sediment scour, transport and accretion as well as contaminant mixing and dispersion. The "bursts" were extensively studied in laboratory experiments under steady flow conditions, but rarely tested in unsteady natural flows. Herein a technique is described for the detection and analysis of turbulent events within large c...

A note on generalized flows

The problem of constructing flows associated with first order ordinary differential equations (ODEs) with spatially non-Lipschitz right-hand side is considered. Due to the lack of uniqueness of the solutions, standard flows cannot be defined in this case. For these situations, it is natural to introduce generalized flows which are random fields constructed by assigning a probability measure on ...

Numerical Investigation on Contaminant Dispersion from a Source over the Blocks in Steady and Unsteady Flows

This paper deals with numerical study of semi-finite incompressible flow of air over two blocks with different heights in the presence of a condensing-source, dispensing- contaminant in the flow, in both steady and unsteady states. The numerical solution of governing PDE equations are constructed by a finite-volume method applied on structured grid arrangement. The effects of air flow velocity,...

A NOTE ON THE UNSTEADY FLOW OF A VISCO-ELASTIC MAXWELL FLUID THROUGH A RECTILINEAR PIPE

The unsteady flow of a visco-elastic Maxwell fluid through a rectilinear pipe having its cross-section as a parallelogram under the influence of a axial pressure gradient (I) varying linearly with time , and (II) decreasing exponentially with time has been discussed in the present paper. Variables separable and Laplace transform methods have been used to solve the problem.
