Energy transmission over long distances by waves is a key mechanism for many natural processes. This possibility arises when an inhomogeneous medium is arranged in such a manner that it enables a certain type of wave to propagate with…

In finite-volume-based flow-simulations with free-surface waves, wave reflections at the domain boundaries can cause substantial errors in the results and must therefore be minimized. This can be achieved via `implicit relaxation zones',…
Fully Developed Turbulence (FDT) is a theoretical asymptotic phenomenon which can only be approximated experimentally or computationally, so its defining characteristics are hypothetical. It is considered to be a chaotic stationary flow…
