Predictions of the disc instability model
نویسنده
چکیده
Confronting the predictions of numerical calculations with observations is an important tool to progress with our understanding of the mechanism triggering the outbursts of dwarf novae and soft X-ray transients. Simultaneous multi-wavelength observations are of particular importance in this process as they contain information about the chronology of the outbursts as e.g. the famous UV-delay observed in dwarf novae. We review key-predictions of the disc instability model (DIM) and confront them with the corresponding observations.

The capability of sand constitutive models is remarkably improved by taking into account the effect of soil state in their formulations. In this study, it has been shown that considering the effect of soil state leads to better simulation of soil instability of shear banding type. To this aim, constitutive equations of a state dependent sand model are explained first. Consequently, the general ...
متن کاملDesign of an Elastic Arthroplastic Disc Optimized under Different Loads
Introduction: Due to limitations of current treatments for degenerative disc disease, arthroplastic methods to repair the diseased disc have been proposed. The artificial disc is a mobile implant for degenerative disc replacement that attempts to lessen the degeneration of the adjacent elements following interbody fusion procedures. Because the success of artificial disc replacement depends on ...

Stagewise forward mixing model considering coalescence and redispersion of drops was used to predict the performance of Rotating Disc Liquid-Liquid Extraction Contactors. Experimental data previously obtained in two RDC columns of 7.62cm diameter, 73.6cm height and 21.9cm diameter, 150cm height were used to evaluate the model predictions. Drop-side mass transfer coefficients were predicted appl...
متن کاملDelays in dwarf novae II: VWHyi, the tidal instability and enhanced mass transfer models
We discuss the multi–wavelength predictions of the two models proposed for SUUMa stars, i.e the enhanced mass transfer (EMT) and the tidal thermal instability (TTI) models. We focus on the systematic differences of the suggested scenarios before discussing the model predictions together with the observations of the best-studied SUUMa system, VWHyi. We find that assuming the standard form of the...
متن کاملStability of accretion discs threaded by a strong magnetic field
We study the stability of poloidal magnetic fields anchored in a thin accretion disc. The two-dimensional hydrodynamics in the disc plane is followed by a grid-based numerical simulation including the vertically integrated magnetic forces. The 3–dimensional magnetic field outside the disc is calculated in a potential field approximation from the magnetic flux density distribution in the disc. F...
