Noise computation of non isothermal flows by hybrid methods for low Mach numbers This study focuses on the numerical calculation of the acoustic field radiated by subsonic turbulent flows with temperature inhomogeneities. Hybrid methods are developed through a Rayleigh-Janzen expansion of the Navier-Stokes equations. The flow is solved in a quasi-incompressible way then the acoustic disturbance...

Since the development of the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) technique, genomic information has been retrievable from lesser amounts of DNA than previously possible. PCR-based amplifications require high-precision instruments to perform temperature cycling reactions; further, they are cumbersome for routine clinical use. However, the use of isothermal approaches can eliminate many complications...

For a two-level quantum mechanical system, we derive microscopically the exact expression for the fluctuation of microscopic work in a multistep nonequilibrium process, and we rigorously prove that in an isothermal process, the fluctuation is vanishingly small and the most probabilistic work is just equal to the difference of the free energy. Our study demonstrates that the convergence of the m...

We numerically test the mode-coupling model (Lubow 1991a) of tidal instability in SU UMa systems. So far, all numercial models confirming it have been based on SPH codes and isothermal equation of state. In our paper we present Eulerians models, using both isothermal approximation and the full energy equation. We also investigate influence of different ways of mass transfer. While isothermal mo...
