Using the adaptive mesh refinement code MG, we perform hydrodynamic simulations of the interaction of a shock with a molecular cloud evolving due to thermal instability and gravity. To explore the relative importance of these processes,…
We study the collapse of an attractive atomic Bose-Einstein condensate prepared in the uniform potential of an optical-box trap. We characterise the critical point for collapse and the collapse dynamics, observing universal behaviour in…
A round disk with a harmonic disturbance impacts on a water surface and creates a non-axisymmetric cavity which collapses under the influence of hydrostatic pressure. We use disks deformed with mode m=2 to m=6. For all mode numbers we find…
The mechanism of the collapse of the superhydrophobic state is elucidated for submerged nanoscale textures forming a three-dimensional interconnected vapor domain. This key issue for the design of nanotextures poses significant simulation…
The dynamics of collapsing and expanding cylindrically symmetric gravitational and matter fields with lightlike wave-fronts is studied in General Relativity, using the Barrabes-Israel method. As an application of the general formulae…
Atomistic and continuum scale modeling efforts have shown that shock induced collapse of porosity can occur via a wide range of mechanisms dependent on pore morphology, shockwave pressure, and material properties. The mechanisms that occur…
Cloud cavitation is related to an intrinsic instability where clouds are shed periodically. The shedding process is initiated either by the motion of a liquid re-entrant jet or a condensation shock. Cloud cavitation in nozzles interacts…
We explored the dynamics of how a Bose-Einstein condensate collapses and subsequently explodes when the balance of forces governing the size and shape of the condensate is suddenly altered. A condensate's equilibrium size and shape is…
The collapse of a spatial probability distribution is triggered by a measurement at a given spacetime point. It is customarily assumed that this collapse occurs along an equal-time hypersurface, say, t = 0. However, such a na\"ive…
We consider the problem of interaction of two oncoming shocks in plane symmetry for a barotropic fluid. We establish a local in time solution after the point of interaction, thereby determining the state behind the emerged shocks which…
Collapse, or a gravitational-like phase transition is studied in a microcanonical ensemble of particles with an attractive $1/r^{\alpha}$ potential. A mean field continuous integral equation is used to determine a saddle-point density…
A new mechanism of the collapse in hydrodynamics is suggested, due to breaking of continuously distributed vortex lines. Collapse results in formation of the point singularities of the vorticity field $|{\bf\Omega}|$. At the collapse point,…
The objective of the present study is to develop a basic understanding of the interaction of shock waves with density inhomogeneities. We consider here the particular instance of a planar air shock impinging on a spherical water-droplet and…
Hard particle erosion and cavitation damage are two main wear problems that can affect the internal components of hydraulic machinery such as hydraulic turbines or pumps. If both problems synergistically act together, the damage can be more…
Shock waves constitute discontinuities in matter which are relevant in studying the plasma behaviour in astrophysical scenarios and in heavy-ion collision. They can produce conical emission in relativistic collisions and are also thought to…
In energetic materials, the localization of energy into "hotspots" when a shock wave interacts with the material's microstructure is known to dictate the initiation of chemical reactions and detonation. Recent results have shown that,…
We study continuously self-similar solutions of four-dimensional Einstein-Maxwell-dilaton theory, with an arbitrary dilaton coupling. Self-similarity is an emergent symmetry of gravitational collapse near the threshold of black hole…
In this paper, we study the collapse of a superhorizon-sized void in the early, radiation-dominated universe using an improved general relativistic code. We find that in general a relativistic or nonrelativistic void collapses via a shock…
The fundamental impacts of surface geometry on the stability of wetting states, and the transitions between them are elucidated for posts and reentrant structures in both two and three dimensions. We identify three principal outcomes of…
Vaporized metal, silicates, and ices on the verge of re-condensing into solid or liquid particles appear in many contexts: behind shocks, in impact ejecta, and within the atmospheres and outflows of stars, disks, planets, and minor bodies.…
