چکیده

The reflection of an object can be distorted by undulations of the reflector, be it a funhouse mirror or a fluid surface. Painters and photographers have long exploited this effect, for example, in imaging scenery distorted by ripples on a lake. Here, we use this phenomenon to visualize micrometric surface waves generated as a millimetric droplet bounces on the surface of a vibrating fluid bath (Bush 2015b). This system, discovered a decade ago (Couder et al. 2005), is of current interest as a hydrodynamic quantum analog; specifically, the walking droplets exhibit several features reminiscent of quantum particles (Bush 2015a).

Numerical investigation of free surface flood wave and solitary wave using incompressible SPH method

Simulation of free surface flow and sudden wave profile are recognized as the most challenging problem in computational hydraulics. Several Eulerian/Lagrangian approaches and models can be implemented for simulating such phenomena in which the smoothed particle hydrodynamics method (SPH) is categorized as a proper candidate. The incompressible SPH (ISPH) method hires a precise incompressible hy...

Macroscopic Visualization of the Heart Electrical Activity Via an Algebraic Computer Model

In this study, a mathematical model is developed based on algebraic equations which is capable of generating artificially normal events of electrocardiogram (ECG) signals such as P-wave, QRS complex, and T-wave. This model can also be implemented for the simulation of abnormal phenomena of electrocardiographic signals such as ST-segment episodes (i.e. depression, elevation, and sloped ascending...

Finding Electrostatics modes in Metal Thin Films by using of Quantum Hydrodynamic Model

In this paper, by using a quantum hydrodynamic plasma model which incorporates the important quantum statistical pressure and electron diffraction force, we present the corrected plasmon dispersion relation for graphene which includes a k quantum term arising from the collective electron density wave interference effects (which  is integer and constant and k is wave vector). The longitudinal ...

Sensitivity Analysis of the Dimensionless Parameter VU based on Morphological Characteristics of some Estuaries on the Northern Borders of the Persian Gulf and Oman Sea

Estuaries and bays are areas with a wide range of hydrodynamic and morphological phenomena. The existence of this diversity in environmental processes will lead to complex and sometimes unknown interactions in their structure. Understanding the behavior and environmental conditions of these beaches will improve the attitude of coastal users for better management of these areas. Many classificat...

Pilot-Wave Hydrodynamics

Yves Couder, Emmanuel Fort, and coworkers recently discovered that a millimetric droplet sustained on the surface of a vibrating fluid bath may self-propel through a resonant interaction with its own wave field. This article reviews experimental evidence indicating that the walking droplets exhibit certain features previously thought to be exclusive to the microscopic, quantum realm. It then re...
