Observations show that transverse magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) waves and flows are often simultaneously present in magnetic loops of the solar corona. The waves are resonantly damped in the Alfv\'en continuum because of plasma and/or magnetic…
The head-on collision of two identical droplets is investigated based on the BGK-Boltzmann equation. Gauss-Hermite quadratures with different degree of precision are used to solve the kinetic equation, so that the continuum (solution…

We experimentally study the behavior of a particle slightly denser than the surrounding liquid in solid body rotating flow. Earlier work revealed that a heavy particle has an unstable equilibrium point in unbounded rotation flows. In the…
Motion of a rigid body immersed in a semi-infinite expanse of gas in a $d$-dimensional region bounded by an infinite plane wall is studied for free molecular flow on the basis of the free Vlasov equation under the specular boundary…
In this Letter we demonstrate for the first time the formation of the inverse energy cascade in the focusing modified Korteweg-de Vries (mKdV) equation. We study numerically the properties of this cascade such as the dependence of the…
Flow reversals are rarely observed in low-Prandtl-number liquid metal convection due to the fluid's exceptionally high thermal diffusivity. Here, we demonstrate that an external transverse magnetic field can induce such reversals in a…

In the current work we propose a theory for an additional mass diffusion effect in the conventional gas dynamics equations. We find that this effect appears as a homogenization time limit correction, when the deterministic interaction…
The intakes of air-breathing high-speed flying vehicles produce a large share of the thrust propulsion. Furthermore, the propulsion performance of these engines increases when the single-ramp intake is replaced with a multiple-ramps intake.…
In this study, we investigate the impact of the magnetic field on the evolution of the transverse flow of QGP matter in the magneto-hydrodynamic (MHD) framework. We assume that the magnetic field is perpendicular to the reaction plane and…

We observe the inverse spin Hall effect in a two-dimensional electron gas confined in AlGaAs/InGaAs quantum wells. Specifically, we find that an inhomogeneous spin density induced by the optical injection gives rise an electric current…
We study the non-continuous correction in the dynamics of drop impact on a solid substrate. Close to impact, a thin film of gas is formed beneath the drop so that the local Knudsen number is of order one. We consider the first correction to…
In this paper, we are interested in the collective friction of a cloud of particles on the viscous incompressible fluid in which they are moving. The particles velocities are assumed to be given and the fluid is assumed to be driven by the…
The Boltzmann equation for $d$-dimensional inelastic Maxwell models is considered to analyze transport properties for monodisperse gas-solid suspensions. The influence of the interstitial gas phase on the dynamics of solid particles is…
Recent work gives a transverse force on an isolated moving vortex which is independent of the normal fluid velocity, but it is widely believed that the asymmetry of phonon scattering by a vortex leads to a transverse force dependent on the…
A point force acting on a Brinkman fluid in confinement is always counterbalanced by the force on the porous medium, the force on the walls and the stress at open boundaries. We discuss the distribution of those forces in different…
This paper is concerned with analysis of electromagnetic wave scattering by an obstacle which is embedded in a two-layered lossy medium separated by an unbounded rough surface. Given a dipole point source, the direct problem is to determine…
