چکیده

It is shown that the interaction of long, weakly nonlinear, quasigeostrophic baroclinic waves can be described by a pair of linearly coupled Korteweg–de Vries equations. Baroclinic energy conversion is investigated as the interaction of interacting upperand lower-layer structures, which are represented by solitary waves. This system exhibits a rich dynamics that is suggestive of atmospheric blocking features, such as stable stationary solutions, transient quasi-steady-state solutions, multiple equilibria, and baroclinic instability. This system is investigated both analytically, using techniques from asymptotic perturbation theory, and through numerical simulations.

On Coherent Structures of Turbulent Open-channel Flow Above a Rough Bed

Present study examines turbulent structures of a rough bed open-channel flow in the context of deterministic approach. Instantaneous velocity field is measured in different hydraulic conditions using two dimensional Particle Image Velocimetry (PIV) in vertical plane and Stereoscopic PIV in horizontal plane. Different techniques and quantities such as swirl strength, two-point and cross-correlat...

Context Recognition of the Tunisian Revolution Formation: in Dignity Search

The public considers sociopolitical revolutions and movements as phenomena that occur suddenly and unpredictably. Still, these phenomena carry historical content and stem from sophisticated sociopolitical, cultural, and economic factors in the view of political scientists. Such a view provides the context in which sociopolitical revolutions and movements are analyzed, not in a single cause, but...

Modified Structure Function Model Based on Coherent Structures

In the present study, a modified Structure Function was introduced. In this modified Structure Function model, the coefficient of model was computed dynamically base on the coherent structure in the flow field. The ability of this Modified Structure Function was investigated for complex flow over a square cylinder in free stream and a low aspect ratio cylinder confined in a channel. The Results...

Flow Visualization by Conditional Sampling of a Single X-Wire Probe in a Very Long Run Experiment

Flow visualization techniques using tracer markers such as die, smoke, hydrogen bubbles, etc., have been widely used in experimental investigations of large scale structures of a variety of flow fields. They have played an important role in understanding the physics of the coherent structures' formation and evolution in the transitional as well as the turbulent regions of the flow fields. Howev...

استفاده از POD در استخراج ساختارهای متجانس‌ یک میدان آشفته آماری- همگن

Capability of the Proper Orthogonal Decomposition (POD) method in extraction of the coherent structures from a spatio-temporal chaotic field is assessed in this paper. As the chaotic field, an ensemble of 40 snapshots, obtained from Direct Numerical Simulation (DNS) of the Kuramoto-Sivashinsky (KS) equation, has been used. Contrary to the usual methods, where the ergodicity of the field is need...
