The Geology of Vesta

The Dawn spacecraft collected over 28,000 images and a wealth of spectral data of Vesta’s surface. These data enable analysis of Vesta’s diverse geology including impact craters of all sizes and unusual shapes, a variety of ejecta blankets, large troughs, impact basins, enigmatic dark material, and considerable evidence for mass wasting and surface alteration processes [1,2,3]. Two large impact...

Recent Gully Activity on Mars: Clues from Late-stage Water Flow in Gully Systems and Channels in the Antarctic Dry Valleys

Introduction: One of the major surprises of the Mars Global Surveyor mission was the discovery of gullies, a class of unusually young features consisting of an alcove, a channel and a fan [1-2]. These features were interpreted to have originated through the flow of liquid water originating from groundwater discharge [1,2], although alternate interpretations have been presented [see 3]. Uncertai...

The Solution of Laminar Incompressible Flow Equation with Free Surfaces in Curvilinear Coordinates

In this paper a novel numerical approach is presented for solving the transient incompressible fluid flow problems with free surfaces in generalized two-dimensional curvilinear coordinate systems. Solution algorithm is a combination of implicit real-time steps and explicit pseudo-time steps. Governing fluid flow equations are discretized using a collocated finite-volume mesh. Convective terms a...

Hydrodynamic Performances of Air-Water Flows in Gullies with and without Swirl Generation Vanes for Drainage Systems of Buildings

As an attempt to improve the performances of multi-entry gullies with applications to drainage system of a building, the hydrodynamic characteristics of air-water flows through the gullies with and without swirl generation vanes (SGV) are experimentally and numerically examined. With the aid of present Charge Coupled Device (CCD) image and optical systems for experimental study, the mechanism o...
