Results of a numerical simulation are presented to determine the feasibility of estimating the location and strength of a wake vortex from imperfect in-situ measurements. These estimates could be used to provide information to a pilot on how to avoid a hazardous wake vortex encounter. An iterative algorithm based on the method of secants was used to solve the four simultaneous equations describ...

– Linear diamagnetism is predicted in the vortex-liquid phase of layered superconductors at temperatures just below the mean-field phase transition on the basis of a hightemperature analysis of the corresponding frustrated XY model. The diamagnetic susceptibility, and the Nernst signal by implication, is found to vanish with temperature as (Tc0 − T ) 3 in the vicinity of the meanfield transitio...

It is of interest to determine the exit angle of a vortex from a superconductor surface, since this affects the intervortex interactions and their consequences. Two ways to determine this angle are to image the vortex magnetic fields above the surface, or the vortex core shape at the surface. In this work we evaluate the field h(x,y,z) above a flat superconducting surface x,y and the currents J...

1 Modeling bubble-vortex interactions Simulations of bubble entrainment and interactions with two dimensional vorti-cal flows are preformed using a Discrete Element Model (DEM). In this Eulerian-Lagrangian approach, solution to the carrier phase is obtained using direct numerical simulation whereas motion of subgrid bubbles is modeled using Lagrangian tracking. The volumetric displacement of th...

Starting flow through a nozzle or orifice typically results in the transient formation of a leading vortex ring and trailing jet. Experiments are conducted to investigate the dynamics of this process in the case of a temporally variable nozzle exit diameter, with the aim of understanding these flows as they occur in Nature and emerging technologies. By kinematically decoupling the source flow f...

This paper is an attempt to attain a new and profound model of the nature’s structure using a vortex-fractal theory (VFT). Scientists try to explain some phenomena in Nature that have not been explained so far. The aim of this paper is the vortex-fractal modeling of vortex-ring fractal structure of atoms, molecules, and a creation of elements in the Mendeleev’s periodic table with vortex-ring p...

In the present study, turbulent flow visualization is carried out to understand the vortex formation mechanism behind a trapezoidal bluff body, for vortex flowmeter application. The dye used for flow v isualization is shearthickening and h igh extension viscosity fluid, which can sustain turbulent separated flows. W ith the quantitative assessment of the images, the vortex frequency is computed...

In planar structures, the vortex resonance frequency changes little as a function of an in-plane magnetic field as long as the vortex state persists. Altering the topography of the element leads to a vastly different dynamic response that arises due to the local vortex core confinement effect. In this work, we studied the magnetic excitations in non-planar ferromagnetic dots using a broadband m...

In this paper, we study the influence on the ring-like vortex structure in MVG controlled supersonic ramp flow by different inflow conditions. In front of the MVG, three turbulent inflow profiles with different boundary layer thickness are generated as the inflow. From the shape factors, we can see that these inflows in front of the MVG are fully developed turbulent. It is found that the inflow...

We present a theory for the localization of three-dimensional vortex lines or two-dimensional bosons with a short-ranged repulsive interaction which are competing for a single columnar defect or potential well. For two vortices we use a necklace model approach to find a new kind of delocalization transition between two different states with a single bound particle. This exchange-delocalization ...
