Numerical simulations of impulsively generated MHD waves in a potential coronal arcade
Impulsively generated waves in coronal arcades are simulated numerically by an application of nonlinear ideal magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) equations. The simulations are performed in the (x, z)-plane on a non-uniform Cartesian mesh. In this geometry the magnetic field can be expressed in terms of the vector potential. The governing equations, which are applied in the limit of low plasma-β, are sol...
متن کاملWater waves generated by a moving bottom
Tsunamis are often generated by a moving sea bottom. This paper deals with the case where the tsunami source is an earthquake. The linearized water-wave equations are solved analytically for various sea bottom motions. Numerical results based on the analytical solutions are shown for the free-surface profiles, the horizontal and vertical velocities as well as the bottom pressure.
متن کاملWind-generated water waves: two overlooked mechanisms?
From research on stratospheric dynamics there has emerged what might prove to be some useful fresh ideas about the problem of water-wave generation by wind. As pointed out in an earlier contribution (1993), water waves can be systematically amplified by two irreversible, ratchet-like mechanisms that depend on spatio-temporal inhomogeneities, such as wind gustiness and wave groupiness. Neither m...
متن کاملGeneralized Stability Analysis of Wind Generated Surface Water Waves
The shear instability mechanism for generation of surface water waves (Miles 1957) is re-examined in light of the nonnormality of the underlying linear operator. The associated eigenproblem and adjoint eigenproblem are solved numerically and a clarification to previous perturbation solutions of the eigenproblem discussed. The optimal excitation problem is solved in the asymptotic limit t → ∞ an...
متن کاملSolitary water waves of large amplitude generated by surface pressure
We consider exact nonlinear solitary water waves on a shear flow with an arbitrary distribution of vorticity. Ignoring surface tension, we impose a non-constant pressure on the free surface. Starting from a uniform shear flow with a flat free surface and a supercritical wave speed, we vary the surface pressure and use a continuation argument to construct a global connected set of symmetric soli...
