چکیده

We characterize the late-time scaling state of dry, coarsening, two-dimensional froths using a detailed force-based dynamical model. We find that the slow evolution of bubbles leads to small and decreasing deviations from 120-degree angles at threefold vertices in the froth, but with a side-number dependence that is independent of time and apparently universal. We also find that a significant number of T1 side-switching processes occur for macroscopic bubbles in the scaling state, though most bubble annihilations involve four-sided bubbles at microscopic scales.

Cluster persistence: A discriminating probe of soap froth dynamics

– The persistent decay of bubble clusters in coarsening two-dimensional soap froths is measured experimentally as a function of cluster volume fraction. A dramatically stronger decay is observed in comparison to soap froth models and to measurements and calculations of persistence in other systems. The fraction of individual bubbles that contain any persistent area also decays, implying signifi...

Analysis of Transient Flow in the Case of Secondary Injection for Transient Vector Control (RESEARCH NOTE)

The purpose of this paper is to analyze the flow field structure in transient state and performance of secondary injection system for thrust vectoring in divergent section of a two-dimensional nozzle. Secondary injection for thrust vectoring in a two-dimensional nozzle is studied by solving three-dimensional Reynolds-averaged equations by means of fluent solver. Spalart-allmaras model was used ...

Geometry of river networks. I. Scaling, fluctuations, and deviations.

This paper is the first in a series of three papers investigating the detailed geometry of river networks. Branching networks are a universal structure employed in the distribution and collection of material. Large-scale river networks mark an important class of two-dimensional branching networks, being not only of intrinsic interest but also a pervasive natural phenomenon. In the description o...

Universal topological properties of two-dimensional trivalent cellular patterns.

Universal topological properties of two-dimensional trivalent cellular patterns are found from shell analysis of soap froth and computer-generated Voronoi diagrams. We introduce a cluster analysis based on the shell model and find the universal relation ln(a/mu(2)) = A+Bln(mu(2)), with the generalized Aboav parameter a and second moment of the number of cell edge distribution mu(2). For the sec...
