Rotating propeller solitons.

چکیده
We demonstrate experimentally and theoretically (both analytically and numerically) a new type of spatial soliton: a rotating "propeller" soliton. This is a composite soliton made of a rotating dipole component jointly trapped with a bell-shaped component. We observe as much as 239 degrees of rotation over 13 mm of propagation (6.5 diffraction lengths).

We study theoretically the collisions between (2+1)D rotating-dipole-type bimodal solitons and find that such interactions exhibit many interesting exchanges of angular momentum.
متن کاملWind Tunnel Tests of the Counter-Rotating Propeller of Stratospheric Airship
In this paper, a design of counter-rotating propeller (CRP) for stratospheric airship in low Reynolds number is tested in experiment for the first time. In consideration of stratosphere environment, a two-bladed counter-rotating propeller is designed for stratospheric airship. With the similarity theory of Reynolds number and advanced ratio, the experiment is conducted in low Reynolds number wi...
متن کاملAnalysis and Experiments for Contra - Rotating Propeller
Contra-rotating propellers have renewed interest from the naval architecture community, because of the recent development of electric propulsion drives and podded propulsors. Contrarotating propulsion systems have the hydrodynamic advantages of recovering part of the slipstream rotational energy which would otherwise be lost utilizing a conventional screw propeller system. The application of th...
متن کاملInvestigating the Effect of Free Surface on Hydrodynamic Performance of Propeller
Simulation of the flow around propeller is a complex fluid flow problem, especially when the propeller is close to free surface. In this study, the effect of different depths on the performance and efficiency of a B-Wageningen series close to surface of water have been numerically investigated. For this purpose the ANSYS-FLUENT commercial software has been used to solve the viscous, incompressi...
متن کاملOn Rotating Solitons in General Relativity
We review a number of results recently obtained in the area of constructing rotating solitons in a four dimensional asymptotically flat spacetime. Various models are examined, special attention being paid to the monopole-antimonopole and gauged skyrmion configurations, which have a nonvanishing total angular momentum. For all known examples of rotating solitons, the angular momentum is fixed by...
