A new scenario for the interaction of a jet with a background medium with cold clouds is investigated by means of hydrodynamic turbulence simulations with cooling. The idea is that the cold clouds are overtaken by a radio cocoon and stirred…

When cool clouds are ram-pressure accelerated by a hot supersonic galactic wind, some of the clouds may be shredded by hydrodynamical instabilities and incorporated into the hot flow. Recent one-dimensional steady-state calculations show…

A model of damped lyman alpha systems is presented based on randomly moving clouds in spherical halos. We use the Press-Schechter model for the abundance of halos, and assume that each halo has a similar population of clouds, with total…

Many phenomenologically successful cosmological galaxy formation simulations employ kinetic winds to model galactic outflows, a crucial ingredient in obtaining predictions that agree with various observations. Yet systematic studies of how…

We use direct numerical simulation to study the temporal evolution of a perturbation localized on the turbulent layer that typically separates a cloud from the surrounding clear air. Across this shearless layer, a turbulent kinetic energy…

Wind turbines operate in the atmospheric boundary layer, where they are exposed to the turbulent atmospheric flows. As the response time of wind turbine is typically in the range of seconds, they are affected by the small scale intermittent…

We study the influence of the choice of cooling function on the formation of molecular clouds in high-resolution three-dimensional simulations of converging flows. We directly compare the results obtained using the simple, parametrized…
