Longitudinal and Transverse Instability of Ion Acoustic Waves

Ion acoustic waves are found to be susceptible to at least two distinct decay processes. Which process dominates depends on the parameters. In the cases examined, the decay channel where daughter modes propagate parallel to the mother mode is found to domi ...

Selection of solitary waves in vertically falling liquid films

Nicolas Igor Jacques Kofman

Two-dimensional solitary waves at the surface of a film flow down a vertical plane are considered. When the system is subjected to inlet white noise, solitary waves are formed after an inception region and interact with each other. Using open-domain simula ...

Basal entrainment by Newtonian gravity-driven flows

Christophe Ancey, Nicolas Andreini, Belinda Margaret Bates

Gravity-driven flows can erode the bed along which they descend and increase their mass by a factor of 10 or more. This process is called "basal entrainment." Although documented by field observations and laboratory experiments, it remains poorly understoo ...

Velocity profile measurements in bore waves

Anton Schleiss, Giovanni De Cesare, Michael Pfister, Davide Wüthrich

Hydrodynamic waves are an unsteady flow motion generated by rapid water level rise. In nature, such events can be found in dam-break waves, impulse waves and tsunamis. These phenomena are rare, but highly destructive. The present study is based on an exper ...

Wave propagation in periodic buckled beams. Part I: Analytical models and numerical simulations

Alessandro Spadoni, Florian Paul Robert Maurin

Periodic buckled beams possess a geometrically nonlinear, load-deformation relationship and intrinsic length scales such that stable, nonlinear waves are possible. Modeling buckled beams as a chain of masses and nonlinear springs which account for transver ...

Multi-Component Ginzburg-Landau Theory: Microscopic Derivation and Examples

Marius Christopher Lemm

This paper consists of three parts. In part I, we microscopically derive Ginzburg–Landau (GL) theory from BCS theory for translation-invariant systems in which multiple types of superconductivity may coexist. Our motivation are unconventional superconducto ...

Approximate cloaking for the full wave equation via change of variables: The Drude-Lorentz model

Hoài-Minh Nguyên

This paper concerns approximate cloaking by mapping for a full, but scalar wave equation, when one allows for physically relevant frequency dependence of the material properties of the cloak. The paper is a natural continuation of [20], but here we employ ...

ICRH induced particle losses in Wendelstein 7-X

Jonathan Graves, Wilfred Anthony Cooper, David Pfefferlé, Jonathan Marc Philippe Faustin

Fast ions in W7-X will be produced either by neutral beam injection (NBI) or by ion-cyclotron resonant heating (ICRH). The latter presents the advantage of depositing power locally and does not suffer from core accessibility issues (Drevlak et al 2014 Nucl ...
