Small-scale hydrodynamics in lakes

Recent small-scale turbulence observations allow the mixing regimes in lakes, reservoirs, and other enclosed basins to be categorized into the turbulent surface and bottom boundary layers as well as the comparably quiet interior. The surface layer consists ...

The second law: statement and applications

Pierre Infelta

The second law of thermodynamics is often expressed as the fact that the entropy of an isolated system increases when a spontaneous change takes place. While this statement is true, a more general formulation can easily be presented to students. Starting f ...

Local three-dimensional MHD stability in equilibrium optimized coordinates

Wilfred Anthony Cooper

The linear equation for ideal magnetohydrodynamic ballooning modes in three-dimensional configurations is derived in the coordinate system that is optimal for the representation of the equilibrium state. The magnetic field lines in this coordinate system, ...

The Kelvin-Nevanlinna-Royden criterion for $p$-parabolicity

Marc Troyanov

We generalize the so called Kelvin–Nevanlinna–Royden crite- rion for the parabolicity of manifolds to the case of p-parabolicity for all p>1. ...
