Several experiments involving two-dimensional and axisymmetric bodies have been carried out in a Trisonic wind tunnel at supersonic speeds to investigate and analyse the measured values of base pressure and to compare them with those from the theoretical methods. The objective of the experiments was to obtain an appropriate method for processing the results of wind tunnel tests on rockets or ai...

Considering epicyclic oscillations of pressure-supported perfect fluid tori orbiting Kerr black holes we examine non-geodesic (pressure) effects on the epicyclic modes properties. Using a perturbation method we derive fully general relativistic formulas for eigenfunctions and eigenfrequencies of the radial and vertical epicyclic modes of a slightly non-slender, constant specific angular momentu...

in this paper, an analytical solution for computing the linear plastic stresses and critical temperature and pressure in a fgm hollow cylinder under the internal pressure and temperature is developed. it has been assumed that the modulus of elasticity and thermal coefficient of expansion were varying through thickness of the fgm material according to a power law relationship. the poisson's...

in the present study, the nonlinear model of non-newtonian blood flow in cosine-shape stenosed elastic artery is numerically examined. the model is carried out for axisymmetric, two-dimensional and fully developed blood flow. the vessel wall is assumed to be have time-dependent radius that is important factor for study of blood flow. the cosine-shape stenosis convert to rigid artery by using a ...

We examine nonlinear oscillations of slender tori in the vicinity of black holes and compact stars. These tori represent useful probes of the complicated, nonlinear dynamics of real accretion disks and provide at least qualitative understanding of their oscillations. We demonstrate that epicyclic modes of such tori are weakly coupled due to the pressure and gravitational forces. We explore all ...

Context. The MHD instabilities can generate complex field topologies even if the initial field configuration is a very simple one. Aims. We consider the stability properties of magnetic configurations containing a toroidal and an axial field. In this paper, we concentrate mainly on the behavior of non-axisymmetric perturbations in axisymmetric magnetic configurations. Methods. The stability is ...

We formulate in general terms the equations for axisymmetric and fully 3D models of a hydrocephalic brain. The model is developed using small strain poroelasticity that includes non-linear permeability. The axisymmetric model is solved for four ventricle shapes, an ellipsoid, a 'peanut' shape, a 'cross' shape and a 'bone' shape. The distribution of fluid pressure, velocity and content in the de...

This paper investigates the characteristics of wall pressure fluctuations in naturally developing boundary layer flows on axisymmetric bodies experimentally. The axisymmetric body has a modified ellipsoidal blunt nose. Flush-mounted microphones are used to measure the wall pressure fluctuations in the boundary layer flow over the body. The measurements are performed in a low noise wind tunnel. ...
