The profile of a nonlinear stationary thermomagnetic wave in the resistive state of superconductors is studied at different transport currents. It is proved that the thermomagnetic wave has an oscillating profile at relatively high values…
Direct numerical simulations are used to study the interaction of a stream of small heavy inertial particles with the laminar and turbulent wakes of an immobile sphere facing an incompressible uniform inflow. Particles that do not collide…
The linear stability of a shocked isothermal accretion flow onto a black hole is investigated in the inviscid limit. The outer shock solution, which was previously found to be stable with respect to axisymmetric perturbations, is, however,…
Stagnation of a cold plasma streaming to the center or axis of symmetry via an expanding accretion shock wave is ubiquitous in inertial confinement fusion (ICF) and high-energy-density plasma physics, the examples ranging from plasma flows…
We study a system of nonlinear Schr\"odinger equations with cubic interactions in one space dimension. The orbital stability and instability of semitrivial standing wave solutions are studied for both non-degenerate and degenerate cases.
An air bubble trapped in water by an oscillating acoustic field undergoes either radial or nonspherical pulsations depending on the strength of the forcing pressure. Two different instability mechanisms (the Rayleigh--Taylor instability and…
The problem of the stability of a nonlinear thermomagnetic wave with respect to small thermal and electromagnetic perturbations in hard superconductors was studied. It is shown that spatially bounded solutions may correspond only to the…
The nonlinear interaction of waves in a driven medium may lead to wave turbulence, a state such that energy is transferred from large to small lengthscales. Here, wave turbulence is observed in experiments on a vibrating plate. The…
We consider quantum particle or Gaussian polymer confinement between two surfaces and in cylinders with sinusoidal undulations. In terms of the variational method, we show that the quantum mechanical wave equations have lower ground state…
The self-gravitating instability of a compressible-inviscid fluid cylinder immersed into a self-gravitating tenuous medium of negligible motion is developed. The stability criterion is derived based on the linear perturbation technique.…
The effect of rotation on the classical gravity-driven Rayleigh-Taylor instability has been shown to influence the scale of the perturbations that develop at the unstable interface and consequently alter the speed of propagation of the…
We study the instability of a dusty simple shear flow where the dust particles are distributed non-uniformly. A simple shear flow is modally stable to infinitesimal perturbations. Also, a band of particles remains unaffected in the absence…
Granular materials demonstrate a strongly nonlinear behavior influencing the wave propagation in the medium. We report the first experimental observation of impulse energy confinement and the resultant disintegration of shock and solitary…
We analyze the linear stability of monoclinal traveling waves on a constant incline, which connect uniform flowing regions of differing depths. The classical shallow-water equations are employed, subject to a general resistive drag term.…
N-body simulations of disc galaxies that display recurrent transient spiral patterns are comparatively easy to construct, but are harder to understand. In this paper, I summarise the evidence from such experiments that the spiral patterns…
We explore flow of a completely wetting fluid in a funnel, with particular focus on contact line instabilities at the fluid front. While the flow in a funnel may be related to a number of other flow configurations as limiting cases,…
Thermally bistable fluid tends to self-organize into clouds of hot and cold material, which are internally uniform and separated by thin conduction fronts. The evolution of these clouds has been studied for isobaric systems, but when…
The linear stability of a rotating, stratified, inviscid horizontal plane Couette flow in a channel is studied in the limit of strong rotation and stratification. An energy argument is used to show that unstable perturbations must have…
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…
We prepare a general framework for analyzing the dynamics of a cylindrical shell in the spacetime with cylindrical symmetry. Based on the framework, we investigate a particular model of a cylindrical shell-collapse with rotational pressure,…
