The law of reflection states that smooth surfaces reflect waves specularly, thereby acting as a mirror. This law is insensitive to disorder as long as its length scale is smaller than the wavelength. Monolayer graphene exhibits a linear…
Similarity solutions are obtained for one dimensional, unsteady, adiabatic propagation of an exponential shock wave in a perfect gas with heat conduction and radiation heat flux, in the presence of azimuthal magnetic field. The shock wave…
The stability of shear flows of electrically conducting fluids, with respect to finite amplitude three-dimensional localized disturbances is considered. The time evolution of the fluid impulse integral, characterizing such disturbances, for…
Tracer diffusion in a granular gas in simple shear flow is analyzed. The analysis is made from a perturbation solution of the Boltzmann kinetic equation through first order in the gradient of the mole fraction of tracer particles. The…
The refraction properties of phononic crystals are revealed by examining the anti-plane shear waves in doubly periodic elastic composites with unit cells containing rectangular and/or elliptical inclusions. The band-structure, group…
We argue that the phase across an asymmetric dc SQUID threaded by a magnetic flux can experience an effective ratchet (periodic and asymmetric) potential. Under an external ac current, a rocking ratchet mechanism operates whereby one sign…
Solutions of shock waves in anisotropic relativistic hydrodynamics in the absence of refraction of the flow passing through the shock wave are considered. The existence of a critical value of the anisotropy parameter is shown. This value is…
Mechanical properties are of central importance to materials sciences, in particular if they depend on external stimuli. Here we investigate the rheological response of amorphous solids, namely col- loidal glasses, to external forces. Using…
Wave resonance is the fundamental mechanism of non-linear instabilities of fluid flows, and affects the long-time evolution of fluid motions and other physical problems described by non-linear differential equations. Some significant…
This paper is devoted to the blow-up of analytic solutions with the emergence of irregular solutions.
Roll-wave trains constitutes a well-known two-phase flow regime in pipes. There exists a one-parameter family of steady roll-wave train solutions, provided the flow conditions are within the roll-wave range. This means that wave train…
When a circular symmetric piston suddenly expands into a still gas, a leading shock wave is generated. This paper investigates an inverse problem of reconstructing the trajectory of the piston from the given leading shock front and the…
Spontaneous motion of an oil droplet driven by chemical nonequilibricity is reported. It is shown that the droplet undergoes regular rhythmic motion under appropriately designed boundary conditions, whereas it exhibits random motion in an…
The commonly applied self-similar solution of the problem of the converging shock wave (shock) evolution with constant compression of the medium behind the shock front results in an unlimited increase of the medium velocity in the vicinity…
This article is concerned in establishing the existence and regularity of solution of semi-hyperbolic patch problem for two-dimensional isentropic Euler equations with van der Waals gas. This type of solution appears in the transonic flow…
We find a new set of exact solutions to Maxwell's equations in space--time varying materials, where the refractive index is constant, while the impedance exhibits effective motion, i.e. it is a function of $x-vt$. We find that waves…
We consider pairs of self-similar 2d vortex sheets forming cusps, equivalently single sheets merging into slip condition walls, as in classical Mach reflection at wedges. We derive from the Birkhoff-Rott equation a reduced model yielding…
The dynamics of a quasi two-dimensional isotropic droplet in a cholesteric liquid crystal medium under symmetric shear flow is studied by lattice Boltzmann simulations. We consider a geometry in which the flow direction is along the axis of…
The phenomena of self-sustained shock wave oscillations over conical bodies with a blunt axisymmetric base subject to uniform high-speed flow are investigated in a hypersonic wind tunnel at Mach number $M = 6$. The flow and shock wave…
Caustic formation occurs within a ray skeleton as optical or acoustic fields propagate in a medium with variable refractive properties and are unphysical, their presence being an artifact of the ray approximation of the field, and methods…
