In this work, rising of a single bubble in a quiescent liquid under microgravity condition was simulated. The related unsteady incompressible full Navier-Stokes equations were solved using a conventional finite difference method with a structured staggered grid. The interface was tracked explicitly by connected marker points via hybrid front capturing and tracking method. One field approximatio...

Two distinct redistribution grids - adaptation techniques, spring analogy and elliptic grid generator are applied to two-dimensional steady, inviscid, shocked flows, and the ability of each technique is examined and compared. Euler equations are solved base on Roe's Reimann solver approach to simulate supersonic flow around a sphere, transonic flow about an airfoil and supersonic flow in a symm...

height is amongst the most delicate subjects of geodesy. thanks to the global navigation satellite systems (gnss) like gps or glonass, 3d point positioning of points, by geometrical positioning, since years ago has become a common practice. the height derived from these ways has a geometrical concept. in civil projects the physical concept of the height is more demanded. orthometric height, , i...

potential field methods such as gravity and magnetic methods are among the most applied geophysical methods in mineral exploration. a high-resolution technique is developed to image geologic boundaries such as contacts and faults. potential field derivatives are the basis of many interpretation techniques. in boundary detection, the analytic signal quantity is defined by combining the val...

the spontaneous generation of inertia–gravity waves (igws) in the idealized simulation of vortical flows is investigated using the isentropic two-layer model on a sphere. the contour-advective semi-lagrangian (casl) algorithm is applied to solve the primitive equations using the potential vorticity (pv), velocity divergence, and acceleration divergence as the prognostic variables. the casl algo...

precise geoid determination on islands suffers from the lack of accurate gravity data on the open seas. nowadays, sub-microgal accuracy for the land gravity observations is obtainable. but the sea gravity data which are collected via shipborne techniques, due to the measuring environment at sea area, are usually highly noisy and are contaminated with various systematic errors. on the other hand...

in this paper, a new formula is applied for the calculation of gravity anomalies from a cylinder model representing a geological body. compared to conventional methods, this new development allows the cylinder to be freely oriented in space. 38 gravity forward models are produced each of which anomaly attributes are calculated. then a linear relationship is established between attributes and so...

This paper presents a new interpretation of the geometry of Triassic alignment of J. Sidi Mahdi –J. Zitoun in Medjerda Valley Plain (Northern Tunisia) based on detailed analysis of gravity and seismic reflection data. The main results of gravity analysis do not show a distinguish gravity anomaly over Triassic evaporites bodies. The positive gravity anomaly seems to be related to the entire stru...
