We consider a weakly dissipative hyperelastic-rod wave equation (or weakly dissipative Camassa–Holm equation) describing nonlinear dispersive dissipative waves in compressible hyperelastic rods. By fixed a smooth solution, we establish the existence of a strongly continuous semigroup of global weak solutions for any initial perturbation from H1(R). In particular, the supersonic solitary shock w...

We extend the definition of Walsh’s martingale measure stochastic integral so as to be able to solve stochastic partial differential equations whose Green’s function is not a function but a Schwartz distribution. This is the case for the wave equation in dimensions greater than two. Even when the integrand is a distribution, the value of our stochastic integral process is a real-valued martinga...

This paper is devoted to the study of a recently derived periodic shallow water equation. We discuss in detail the blow-up scenario of strong solutions and present several conditions on the initial profile, which ensure the occurrence of wave breaking. We also present a family of global weak solutions, which may be viewed as global periodic shock waves to the equation under discussion.

Improved Finite-Volume Method for Radiative Hydrodynamics Alan Wray* Corresponding author: [email protected] * NASA Ames Research Center, USA Abstract: Fully coupled simulations of hydrodynamics and radiative transfer are essential to a number of fields ranging from astrophysics to engineering applications. Of particular interest in this work are hypersonic atmospheric entries and associate...

Conical shock waves are generated as sharp conical solid projectiles fly supersonically in the air. We study such conical shock waves in steady supersonic flow using isentropic Euler system. The stability of such attached conical shock waves for non-symmetrical conical projectile and non-uniform incoming supersonic flow are established. Meanwhile, the existence of the solution to the Euler syst...

The overall structure of quasi-perpendicular, high Mach number collisionless shocks is controlled to a large extent by ion reflection at the shock ramp. Departure from a strictly one-dimensional structure is indicated by simulation results showing that the surface of such shocks is rippled, with variations in the density and all field components. We present a detailed analysis of these shock ri...

Casting is considered as a major manufacturing process. Thermal analysis of a solidifying medium is of great importance for appropriate design of casting processes. The conventional governing equation of a solidifying medium is based on the Fourier heat conduction law, which does not account for the phase-lag between the heat flux and the temperature gradient. In this paper, the concept of phas...
