Leidenfrost explosions
We present a fluid dynamics video showing the behavior of Leidenfrost droplets composed by a mixture of water and surfactant (SDS, Sodium Dodecyl sulfate). When a droplet is released on a plate heated above a given temperature a thin layer of vapor isolates the droplet from the plate. The droplet levitates over the plate. This is called the Leidenfrost effect. In this work we study the influenc...
متن کاملCosmic Explosions (Optical)
One of the principal motivations of wide-field and synoptic surveys is the search for, and study of, transients. By transients I mean those sources that arise from the background, are detectable for some time, and then fade away to oblivion. Transients in distant galaxies need to be sufficiently bright as to be detectable, and in almost all cases those transients are catastrophic events, markin...
متن کاملExplosions Modeling – A Tutorial
New challenges and problems emerge everyday with the current wave of terrorism. Suicide bombing, and explosions – a phenomenon only believed to be exist in the battlefields – witnessed and experienced by thousands in civil settings. Traditional approaches and conventional solutions often fail to understand the emerging problems, and help us mitigate the effects. When modeling explosions for inv...

متن کاملControlling soliton explosions
We investigate the dynamics of solitons in generalized Klein-Gordon equations in the presence of nonlinear damping and spatiotemporal perturbations. We will present different mechanisms for soliton explosions. We show (both analytically and numerically) that some space-dependent perturbations or nonlinear damping can make the soliton internal mode unstable leading to soliton explosion. We will ...
