Biomimetic Survival Hydrodynamics and Flow Sensing
The fluid mechanics employed by aquatic animals in their escape or attack maneuvers, what we call survival hydrodynamics, are fascinating because the recorded performance in animals is truly impressive. Such performance forces us to pose some basic questions on the underlying flow mechanisms that are not yet in use in engineered vehicles. A closely related issue is the ability of animals to sen...
متن کاملMathematical Hydrodynamics
NSS is quite rigid. The only natural parameters are the viscosity ν > 0 and the external forces f(x, t) which may be random. By this reason the analysis of (1), (2) is usually very difficult. The problem of turbulence can be formulated as a problem of asymptotic regimes of solutions of NSS as ν → 0. We believe that some of the methods and results which we shall discuss below can be useful for t...
متن کاملVacuum Hydrodynamics
The Higgs vacuum – with its constant background field – is not ‘empty’ but is a kind of medium. Any ordinary medium, viewed at sufficiently long length scales, has a hydrodynamic description and can propagate sound waves. The vacuum medium is unusual; the speed of sound is formally infinite and there is no linear sound-wave regime. Instead, long-wavelength disturbances are described by some int...
متن کاملNanoflow hydrodynamics.
We show by nonequilibrium molecular dynamics simulations that the Navier-Stokes equation does not correctly describe water flow in a nanoscale geometry. It is argued that this failure reflects the fact that the coupling between the intrinsic rotational and translational degrees of freedom becomes important for nanoflows. The coupling is correctly accounted for by the extended Navier-Stokes equa...
متن کاملHydrodynamics Analysis of Density Currents
Density Current is formed when a fluid with heavier density than the surrounding fluid flows down an inclined bed. These types of flows are common in nature and can be produced by; salinity, temperature inhomogeneities, or suspended particles of silt and clay. Driven by the density difference between inflow and clear water in reservoirs, density current plunges clear water and moves towards a d...
