In shockwave theory, the density, velocity and pressure jumps are derived from the conservation equations. Here, we address the physics of a weak shock the other way around. We first show that the density profile of a weak shockwave in a…
Generalized forms of jump relations are obtained for one dimensional shock waves propagating in a non-ideal gas which reduce to Rankine-Hugoniot conditions for shocks in idea gas when non-idealness parameter becomes zero. The equation of…
Periodically sheared colloids at low densities demonstrate a dynamical phase transition from an inactive to active phase as the strain amplitude is increased. The inactive phase consists of no collisions/contacts between particles in the…
Conventional phonon-electron interaction induces either triplet or one of two (degenerate) singlet pairing states in time reversal and inversion invariant 3D Dirac semi - metal. Investigation of the order parameters and energies of these…
We study the contraction properties (up to shift) for admissible Rankine-Hugoniot discontinuities of $n\times n$ systems of conservation laws endowed with a convex entropy. We first generalize the criterion developed in [47], using the…
We are concerned with a model of ideal compressible isentropic two-fluid magnetohydrodynamics (MHD). Introducing an entropy-like function, we reduce the equations of two-fluid MHD to a symmetric form which looks like the classical MHD…
Shocks waves are a ubiquitous feature of many astrophysical plasma systems, and an important process for energy dissipation and transfer. The physics of these shock waves are frequently treated/modeled as a collisional, fluid MHD…
We study dynamical constraints arising from Embedded Contact Homology (ECH) in the spatial isosceles three-body problem. For energies below the critical level, the dynamics on the energy surface is identified with a Reeb flow on the tight…
A standard motion control with feedback of the output displacement cannot handle unforeseen contact with environment without penetrating into the soft, i.e. viscoelastic, materials or even damaging the fragile materials. Robotics and…
The turbulent structure of an irregular detonation is studied through very high resolution numerical simulations of 600 points per half reaction length. The aim is to explore the nature of the transverse waves during the collision and…
Flow signatures in experimental data from relativistic ion collisions are usually interpreted as a fingerprint of the presence of a hydrodynamic phase during the evolution of these systems. In this work, flow signatures arising from…
Within the context of Magnetohydrodynamics (MHD), the properties of a parallel shock do not depend on the field strength, as the field and the fluid are disconnected for such a geometry. However, in the collisionless case, the field can…
In the present paper, an efficient method to generate "pure" cylindrically converging shock wave without a following contact surface is proposed firstly. Then, the Richtmyer-Meshkov instabilities of two interfaces driven by the generated…
The conventional no-slip boundary condition leads to a non-integrable stress singularity at a contact line. This is a main challenge in numerical simulations of two-phase flows with moving contact lines. We derive a two-dimensional…
This paper presents a framework to perform bifurcation analysis in laboratory experiments or simulations. We employ control-based continuation to study the dynamics of a macroscopic variable of a microscopically defined model, exploring the…
For nonlinear hyperbolic systems of conservation laws in one space variable, we establish the existence of nonclassical entropy solutions exhibiting nonlinear interactions between shock waves with strong strength. The proposed theory is…
In this article, we investigate the two-dimensional pressureless Euler equations with three constant Riemann initial data. Our primary focus is on the wave interactions involving contact discontinuities and delta shocks. A distinguishing…
We establish the existence, stability, and asymptotic behavior of transonic flows with a transonic shock past a curved wedge for the steady full Euler equations in an important physical regime, which form a nonlinear system of…
We study the classical problem of planar shock refraction at an oblique density discontinuity, separating two gases at rest. When the shock impinges on the density discontinuity, it refracts and in the hydrodynamical case 3 signals arise.…
We have considered a shock wave as a surface of discontinuity and computed the entropy production using non-equilibrium thermodynamics for surfaces. The results from this method, which we call the "Gibbs excess method" (GEM), were compared…
