Shock Physics in Compressible Solids
… of compressive and tensile shock waves in compressible solids, focusing on thermoelastic (TE) and thermoviscoelastic (TVE) materials with and without rheology. Shock phenomena in compressible solids are inherently complex, involving nonlinear wave interactions, dissipation mechanisms, and …

Morphological Changes in Compressible Foams
We introduce a model free energy, assuming the bubbles in the foam to come in just two sizes and calculate its global minimum for different values of the parameters. We then consider the transition in more detail and show how some subtle factors of the foam's structure and the parameters of the …

On deformations of compressible hyperelastic material
… the character of several finite deformations of compressible isotropic, nonlinear hyperelastic materials, specifically azimuthal shear of a thick-walled circular cylindrical tube, the bending deformation of a rectangular block and axial shear of a thick-walled circular cylindrical tube. For each …

Actuator Disk Theory for Compressible Flow
… or Froude’s Momentum Theory was established for compressible, subsonic flow using the three laws of conservation and isentropic thermodynamics. The compressible Actuator Disk Theory was established for the unducted (bare) and ducted cases in which the disk was treated as the only assembly within …

Instabilities of a compressible mixing layer
… Whereas the maximum growth rate of the Incompressible mixing layer varies linearly with the velocity ratio, the maximum growth rate of the compressible mixing flow varies nonlinearly with the velocity ratio. The numerical results substantiate the fact that the convective Mach number Is the …

Compressible Lubrication Theory in Pressurized Gases
Lubrication theory plays a fundamental role in all mechanical design as well as applications to biomechanics. All machinery are composed of moving parts which must be protected against wear and damage. Without effective lubrication, maintenance cycles will be shortened to impractical levels …

Development of Novel Compressible Magnetorheological Fluid (CMRF)
A novel of compressible magnetorheological fluid (CMRF) has been synthesized from modified silicone oil, composite polyurethane-microspheres additives, and surface coated iron particles. The CMRF has been designed to replace the spring in a damper system. Thus, the fluid has to provide an elastic …

Compressible Flow Analysis of Thrust Augmenting Ejectors
<p>The present work was initiated due to the need for a method to understand and predict the thrust augmenting characteristics of jet ejectors. The mixing process in ejectors can be analyzed using either the control volume approach, or detailed models based on the Navier -Stokes Equations and the …

Compressible Hydrodynamics of Few Body Optical Vortices
… hydrodynamically. Lastly, because of the compressible fluid nature of optical systems, we show that annihilation dynamics can be altered by simply changing the initial core overlap between an oppositely charged vortex pair. Both numerical simulations and experiments confirm that …

Large eddy simulation of compressible channel flow
A large eddy simulation method for compressible channel flow simulations is developed and validated. The method separates the resolvable scale motions from the unresolvable (subgrid) scales by applying a spatial filter to the compressible Navier-Stokes equations. The Leonard and cross terms which …

Compressible flows of dense gases in boundary layers
The equations and numerics necessary for the analysis of dense-gas boundary-layer flows over arbitrarily shaped two-dimensional bodies are developed. The governing equations are derived from the Navier-Stokes-Fourier equations for a general fluid. A numerical method based on the second-order …

Stabilized finite elements for compressible turbulent Navier-Stokes
… the development of a high-order flow solver for compressible turbulent flows. The Reynolds averaged Navier-Stokes (RANS) equations and modified Spalart-Almaras (SA) turbulence model are discretized using the streamline/upwind Petrov-Galerkin (SUPG) scheme. A fully implicit methodology is used to …
