Thermal structure, radial anisotropy, and dynamics of oceanic boundary layers
Defining the oceanic lithosphere as a thermal boundary layer allows to explain, to first order, age-dependent bathymetry and isotropic wave speeds. In contrast, SS precursors and receiver functions suggest a subhorizontal interface within this layer, on top of a radially anisotropic zone. Comparing a suite of geodynamic scenarios against surface wave dispersion data and seismic discontinuities,...
متن کاملMagnetohydrodynamics equilibria with toroidal and poloidal flow
In the present work, the effects of flow on tokamak equilibria are investigated, focusing in particular on the effects of poloidal flows. It is shown that discountinuous transonic equilibria with a pedestal structure can be obtained for relatively low values of the poloidal velocity. Equilibria with poloidal flow of the order of the poloidal Alfvén speed are shown to develop inverted Shafranov ...
متن کاملHigh-b equilibria in tokamaks with toroidal flow
We extend existing 2-D analytical high-b equilibrium solutions obtained by Cowley et al. [Phys. Fluids B 3, 2066 (1991)] and Hsu et al. [Phys. Plasmas 3, 266 (1996)] to the case of toroidally flowing plasma, assuming ideal magnetohydrodynamics and isothermal magnetic surfaces. Invoking the ordering bq 2 and M /q2 , we solve the boundary layer problem, re-obtaining the static solution in the zer...
متن کاملMyriad Radial Cavitating Equilibria in Nonlinear Elasticity
It is shown that every bounded strictly increasing smooth positive function of sufficiently slow growth is the Jacobian of a radial hole creating equilibrium deformation for an appropriately constructed compressible nonlinearly elastic energy.
متن کاملInstabilities in turbulent boundary layers
An investigation of a model of turbulence generation in the wall region of a turbulent boundary layer is made through direct numerical simulations. The model is based on the instability of a streak. First, a laminar boundary layer disturbed by a continuous blowing through a slot is simulated in order to reproduce and further investigate the results reported from the experiments of Acarlar & Smi...
