Non linear phenomena in glaciology: ice-surging and streaming.

Emanuele Schiavi, Ana Isabel Muñoz, Ultano Kindelán (2002)

RACSAM

Similarity:

En estas notas presentamos algunos modelos físicos que han sido propuestos recientemente para tratar el problema de los movimientos repentinos y casi periódicos del hielo, así como la aparición de corrientes de hielo rápidas en los grandes mantos glaciares que se deslizan sobre lechos blandos y deformables. Estos fenómenos están relacionados con la transición de un régimen de flujo lento a uno rápido y pueden aparecer debido a una modificación del sistema de drenaje del glaciar. Los...

Recent developments on wall-bounded turbulence.

Javier Jiménez (2007)

RACSAM

Similarity:

The study of turbulence near walls has experienced a renaissance in the last decade, in part because of the availability of high-quality numerical simulations. The viscous and buffer layers over smooth walls are now fairly well understood. They are essentially independent of the outer flow, and there is a family of numerically-exact nonlinear structures that predict well many of the best-known characteristics of the wall layer, such as the intensity and the spectra of the velocity fluctuations,...

Combustion in hydraulically resisted flows.

Gregory I. Sivashinsky (2007)

RACSAM

Similarity:

The effects of hydraulic resistance on premixed gas combustion in tubes and inert porous beds are discussed on the basis of recent research. It is found that the hydraulic resistance causes a gradual precompression and preheating of the unburned gas adjacent to the advancing deflagration which may lead (after an extended induction period) to a localized thermal explosion triggering an abrupt transition from deglagrative to detonative combustion. The hydraulic resistance has a profound...
