چکیده

For the free boundary dynamics of the two-phase Hele-Shaw and Muskat problems, and also for the irrotational incompressible Euler equation, we prove existence locally in time when the Rayleigh-Taylor condition is initially satisfied for a 2D interface. The result for water waves was first obtained by Wu in a slightly different scenario (vanishing at infinity), but our approach is different because it emphasizes the active scalar character of the system and does not require the presence of gravity.

Coupled Vibration of Partially Fluid-Filled Laminated Composite Cylindrical Shells

In this study, the free vibration of partially fluid-filled laminated composite circular cylindrical shell with arbitrary boundary conditions has been investigated by using Rayleigh-Ritz method. The analysis has been carried out with strain-displacement relations based on Love’s thin shell theory and the contained fluid is assumed irrotational, incompressible and inviscid. After determining the...

Energy equation for irrotational theories of gas-liquid flow:: viscous potential flow (VPF), viscous potential flow with pressure correction (VCVPF), dissipation method (DM)

The effects of viscosity on the irrotational motions of spherical cap bubble, Taylor bubbles in round tubes, Rayleigh-Taylor and Kelvin-Helmholtz instability described in previous chapters were obtained by evaluating the viscous normal stress on potential flow. In gas-liquid flows, the viscous normal stress does not vanish and it can be evaluated on the potential. It can be said that in the cas...

Interface evolution: Water waves in 2-D

We study the free boundary evolution between two irrotational, incompressible and inviscid fluids in 2-D without surface tension. We prove local-existence in Sobolev spaces when, initially, the difference of the gradients of the pressure in the normal direction has the proper sign, an assumption which is also known as the Rayleigh-Taylor condition. The well-posedness of the full water wave prob...

Buoyancy Term Evolution in the Multi Relaxation Time Model of Lattice Boltzmann Method with Variable Thermal Conductivity Using a Modified Set of Boundary Conditions

During the last few years, a number of numerical boundary condition schemes have been used to study various aspects of the no-slip wall condition using the lattice Boltzmann method. In this paper, a modified boundary condition method is employed to simulate the no-slip wall condition in the presence of the body force term near the wall. These conditions are based on the idea of the bounce-back ...

A Model for Rayleigh-Taylor Mixing and Interface Turnover

We first develop a new mathematical model for two-fluid interface motion, subjected to the Rayleigh–Taylor (RT) instability in two-dimensional fluid flow, which in its simplest form, is given by htt(α, t) = AgΛh − σ ρ++ρ−Λ 3h − Apα(Hhtht), where Λ = Hpα and H denotes the Hilbert transform. In this so-called h-model, A is the Atwood number, g is the acceleration, σ is surface tension, and ρ± den...
