Interfacial instability in finite elqticity under initial stress
It is shown that two homogeneous elastic media of different rigidities adhering at a plane interface will become unstable at the surface of discontinuity when a certain critical magnitude of initial stress is attained. The general characteristic equation for the interfacial instability is derived for a general case of elastic anisotropy. The critical stress is evaluated as a function of the rig...
متن کاملSurface instability in finite anisotropic elasticity under initial stress
The writer’s theory of surface instability of au elastic body under initial stress in finite strain is extended to anisotropic elasticity. The general characteristic equation for surface instability is derived. In addition, the surface deflexion under a normal load is evaluated for the subcritical case of initial stress. The analysis includes the case in which gravity is taken into account. It ...
متن کاملSimulation of entrainment near a density stratified layer: Laboratory experiment and LIDAR observation
In this paper a simple qualitative model of the growth of a mixed layer adjacent to a uniform layer with a stably stratified layer is presented. The depth variations of mixed layer can be estimated from direct measurements. The Entrainment of a stably stratified layer into a turbulent mixed layer in a confined region was studied in laboratory for different Richardson numbers. The internal waves...
متن کاملModelling of stratified two phase flows using an interfacial area density model
Stratified two-phase flow regimes can occur in chemical plants, nuclear reactors and oil pipelines. A relevant problem is the development of wavy stratified flows which can lead to slug generation. The slug flow regime is characterized by an acceleration of the gaseous phase and by the transition of fast liquid slugs, which carry a significant amount of liquid with high kinetic energy. It is po...
متن کاملShear layer instability in a highly diffusive stably stratified atmosphere
The linear stability of a shear layer in a highly diffusive stably stratified atmosphere has been investigated. This study completes and extends previous works by Dudis (1974) and Jones (1977). We show that (i) an asymptotic regime is reached in the limit of large thermal diffusivity, (ii) there exists two different types of unstable modes. The slowest growing modes correspond to predominantly ...
