A Numerical Study of Riemann
نویسندگان
چکیده
A numerical study of the isothermal fluid equations with a nonmonotone equation of state (like that of van der Waals) and with viscosity and capillarity terms is presented. This system is ill-posed (i.e., elliptic in x vs. t) in some regions of state space and well-posed (i.e., hyperbolic) in other regions. Thus, it may serve as a model for describing dynamic phase transitions. Numerical computations of phase jumps, shock waves, and rarefaction waves for this system are presented. Although the solution of the Riemann problem is not unique, all of these waves are found to be stable to infinitesimal initial perturbations. Criteria are found for instability after O(1) initial perturbations. An analytic argument is made for stability of phase transitions.

Fourth-order numerical solution of a fractional PDE with the nonlinear source term in the electroanalytical chemistry
The aim of this paper is to study the high order difference scheme for the solution of a fractional partial differential equation (PDE) in the electroanalytical chemistry. The space fractional derivative is described in the Riemann-Liouville sense. In the proposed scheme we discretize the space derivative with a fourth-order compact scheme and use the Grunwald- Letnikov discretization of the Ri...
متن کاملNumerical Simulation of Shock-Wave/Boundary/Layer Interactions in a Hypersonic Compression Corner Flow
Numerical results are presented for the shock-boundary layer interactions in a hypersonic flow over a sharp leading edge compression corner. In this study, a second- order Godunov type scheme based on solving a Generalized Riemann Problem (GRP) at each cell interface is used to solve thin shear layer approximation of laminar Navier-Stokes (N-S) equations. The calculated flow-field shows general...

In this paper, we apply spectral method based on the Bernstein polynomials for solving a class of optimal control problems with Jumarie’s modified Riemann-Liouville fractional derivative. In the first step, we introduce the dual basis and operational matrix of product based on the Bernstein basis. Then, we get the Bernstein operational matrix for the Jumarie’s modified Riemann-Liouville fractio...
متن کاملPresentation of two models for the numerical analysis of fractional integro-differential equations and their comparison
In this paper, we exhibit two methods to numerically solve the fractional integro differential equations and then proceed to compare the results of their applications on different problems. For this purpose, at first shifted Jacobi polynomials are introduced and then operational matrices of the shifted Jacobi polynomials are stated. Then these equations are solved by two methods: Caputo fractio...
متن کاملQuasi-Static Numerical Simulation of Missile Staging
In this study, the missile staging process by implementing a side-injected jet is simulated numerically. The problem is considered to be axisymmetric and the thin shear layer approximation of Navier-Stokes equations along with an algebraic turbulence model is used in a quasi-static form for the calculations. The free stream corresponds to a very high altitude flight condition with a Mach number...
