Nonlinear effects near an explosions
… a relationship between the size of this nonlinear region and the frequency spectrum of the elastic signal. The computation of the size of the shattered zone, shows that this region is bounded by a so called "Critical Radius," which occurs when the shock wave pressure caused by the …

Nonlinear effects in surface gravity waves
In the first section of this dissertation the resonant transfer of energy within a continuous spectrum of water waves is considered.� Using a transfer equation derived by LonguetHigg: ins (1975) for narrow spectra, and choosing suitable simple forms for these spectra, we make accurate evaluations …

Nonlinear effects on interfacial wave growth into slug flow
… are well understood; however, the subsequent nonlinear evolution and the effects of wave resonances on the interface remain a subject of interest and will be the focus of this study. The Kelvin-Helmholtz (KH) instability is the traditional model for predicting interfacial instability in …

Optical nonlinear effects and photon pair production in modulated materials
… the refractive index through the second order nonlinearity of the medium. We show that the key condition for this approach is that the medium is subwavelength in thickness. This leads to a temporal modulation of the refractive index. We use a mechanically exfoliated MoS2 monolayer. We present a …

NONLOCAL AND NONLINEAR EFFECTS ON SOLAR OSCILLATIONS (RADIATIVE DAMPING, LIMB DARKENING).
… average properties of the medium. If the basic nonlinear equations are statistically averaged, the influence of the "mean field" can be investigated. This nonlinear effect can become important in the analysis for single modes in the upper photosphere.

Particle-In-cell simulations of nonlocal and nonlinear effects in inductively coupled plasmas
The kinetic effects in an inductively coupled plasma (ICP) due to thermal motion of particles modified by self-consistent magnetic fields are studied by using a particle-in-cell (PIC) simulation. In the low pressure, low frequency regime, electron mean free paths are large relative to device size …

Geometric and material nonlinear effects in elastic-plastic and failure analyses of anisotropic laminated structures
… plastic material behavior with full geometric nonlinearity is used to determine stresses at selected points (Gauss quadrature points in each element) of the structure. Material stiffness (constitutive) matrices are evaluated at each Gauss point, in each lamina and in each element, and when the …
