This paper studies steady supersonic flow in a 2D semi-infinite divergent duct. We assume that the flow satisfies the slip boundary condition on the walls of the duct, and the state of the flow is given at the inlet of the divergent duct.…

Supersonic flows are ubiquitous in warm and cool media; their dissipation leads to heating, generation of nonthermal particles, and amplification of background magnetic fields. We present 2D hybrid (kinetic ions - fluid electrons)…
We show that strong bow shocks are turbulent and non-universal near the head, but asymptote to a universal steady, self-similar, and analytically solvable flow in the downstream. The turbulence is essentially 3D, and has been confirmed by a…

Experiments have shown that shear waves induced in brain tissue can develop into shock waves, thus providing a possible explanation of deep traumatic brain injuries. Here, we study the formation of shock waves in soft viscoelastic solids…
In this paper, we investigate two dimensional subsonic and subsonic-sonic spiral flows outside a porous body. The existence and uniqueness of the subsonic spiral flow are obtained via variational formulation. The optimal decay rate at far…
This is a study of singular solutions of the problem of traveling gravity water waves on flows with vorticity. We show that, for a certain class of vorticity functions, a sequence of regular waves converges to an extreme wave with…
Self-similar solutions to converging (implosions) and diverging (explosions) shocks have been studied before, in planar, cylindrical or spherical symmetry. Here we offer a unified treatment of these apparently disconnected problems . We…
Modelling the flow in a thin accretion disc like a dynamical system, we analyse the nature of the critical points of the steady solutions of the flow. For the simple inviscid disc there are two critical points, with the outer one being a…
Supersonic-sonic patches are ubiquitous in regions of transonic flows and they boil down to a family of degenerate hyperbolic problems in regions surrounded by a streamline, a characteristic curve and a possible sonic curve. This paper…
We consider the problem of supersonic flow of a Chaplygin gas past a delta wing with a shock or rarefaction wave attached to the leading edges. The flow under study is described by the three-dimensional steady Euler system. In conical…
