Density Probability Distribution Functions in Supersonic Hydrodynamic and Mhd Turbulence
We study the probability distribution function (PDF) of the mass density in simulations of supersonic turbulence with properties appropriate for molecular clouds. For this study we use Athena, a new higher-order Godunov code. We find there are surprisingly similar relationships between the mean of the time-averaged PDF and the turbulent Mach number for driven hydrodynamic and strong-field MHD t...
متن کاملThe distribution of shock waves in driven supersonic turbulence
Supersonic turbulence generates distributions of shock waves. Here, we analyse the shock waves in threedimensional numerical simulations of uniformly driven supersonic turbulence, with and without magnetohydrodynamics and self-gravity. We can identify the nature of the turbulence by measuring the distribution of the shock strengths. We find that uniformly driven turbulence possesses a power law...
متن کاملFractal Density Distribution of Interstellar Clouds from Numerical Simulations of Compressively Driven Supersonic Turbulence
We present results of a high resolution 3-dimensional numerical simulation of compressively driven supersonic turbulence. A detailed analysis of the fractal mass dimension, which is extracted from data of the density field, yields values of Df ≈ 2.6− 2.7. This is significantly higher than what is usually assumed in the literature (Df ≈ 2.35). However, this value is traditionally obtained by app...
متن کاملDensity Scaling and Anisotropy in Supersonic Mhd Turbulence
We study the statistics of density for supersonic turbulence in a medium with magnetic pressure larger than the gaseous pressure. This study is motivated by molecular cloud research. Our simulations exhibit clumpy density structures, which contrast increases with the Mach number. At 10 Machs densities of some clumps are three orders of magnitude higher than the mean density. These clumps give r...
متن کاملthe effect of traffic density on the accident externality from driving the case study of tehran
در این پژوهش به بررسی اثر افزایش ترافیک بر روی تعداد تصادفات پرداخته شده است. به این منظور 30 تقاطع در شهر تهران بطور تصادفی انتخاب گردید و تعداد تصادفات ماهیانه در این تقاطعات در طول سالهای 89-90 از سازمان کنترل ترافیک شهر تهران استخراج گردید و با استفاده از مدل داده های تابلویی و نرم افزار eviews مدل خطی و درجه دوم تخمین زده شد و در نهایت این نتیجه حاصل شد که تقاطعات پر ترافیک تر تعداد تصادفا...
