The structure of whistler precursor in a quasi-perpendicular shock is studied within two-fluid approach in one-dimensional case. The complete set of equations is reduced to the KdV equation, if no dissipation is included. With a…
In the present paper we propose the van der Waals-like model, which allows a purely analytical study of fluid properties including the equation of state, phase behavior and supercritical fluctuations. We take a square-well system as an…
The problem of diffraction of a waveguide mode by a thin Neumann screen is considered. The incident mode is assumed to have frequency close to the cut-off. The problem is reduced to a propagation problem on a branched surface and then is…
In this work we employ a recently devised metric within the Geometrothermodynamics program to study ordinary thermodynamic systems. The new feature of this metric is that, in addition to Legendre symmetry, it exhibits invariance under a…
We consider two cases of interaction between a planar shock and a cylindrical density interface. In the first case (planar normal shock), the axis of the gas cylinder is parallel to the shock front, and baroclinic vorticity deposited by the…
Shock tubes provide well-controlled high-temperature and high-pressure conditions for chemical kinetics studies, yet the region behind the reflected shock is seldom perfectly homogeneous. Axial and radial gradients arise from shock…

This study establishes the global well-posedness of the compressible non-isentropic Navier-Stokes/Allen-Cahn system governed by the van der Waals equation of state $p(\rho,\theta)=- a\rho^2+\frac{R\theta\rho}{1-b\rho}$ and degenerate…
We investigate dissipative anomalies in a turbulent fluid governed by the compressible Navier-Stokes equation. We follow an exact approach pioneered by Onsager, which we explain as a non-perturbative application of the principle of…

In this paper we study the motion of a fluid with several dispersed particles whose concentration is very small (smaller than $10^{-3}$), with possible applications to problems coming from geophysics, meteorology, and oceanography. We…
The conductivity of an electron gas can be alternatively calculated either from the current--current or from the density--density correlation function. Here, we compare these two frequently used formulations of the Kubo formula for the…
The stability of an irreversible singularity, such as a Riemann shock to the full Euler system, in the absence of any technical conditions on perturbations, remains a major open problem even within mono-dimensional framework. A natural…
A microscopic model able to describe simultaneously the dynamic viscosity and the self-diffusion coefficient of fluids is presented. This model is shown to emerge from the introduction of fractional calculus in a usual model of condensed…
