Accurate and efficient modeling of shock-layer radiative heat loads is critical for many spacecraft designs. A correlated-k distribution method has been developed for the most important atomic species (N and O), which provides great accuracy with high numerical efficiency for the evaluation of radiative transfer in a hot plasma. Challenges posed by typical nonequilibrium gas conditions and extr...

A modified Rigrod theory that uses a nonhomogeneous gain saturation law is used to model outcoupled, total, and intracavity power from a high-gain and a low-gain cw HF chemical laser with good accuracy. The homogeneous gain saturation law is found to have significant limitations when used to model total power data over a wide range of threshold gain values. The use of a nonhomogeneous gain satu...

We study an initial value problem for a coupled Caputo type nonlinear fractional differential system of higher order. As a first problem, the nonhomogeneous terms in the coupled fractional differential system depend on the fractional derivatives of lower orders only. Then the nonhomogeneous terms in the fractional differential system are allowed to depend on the unknown functions together with ...

Abstract In the present paper, we consider star-shaped mean convex hypersurfaces of real, complex and quaternionic hyperbolic space evolving by a class nonhomogeneous expanding flows. For any choice ambient manifold, initial conditions are preserved long-time existence flow is proved. The geometry influences asymptotic behaviour flow: after suitable rescaling, induced metric converges to confor...

Various methods of predicting the deformation of fine-scale cloth from coarser resolutions have been explored. However, the influence of fine-scale deformation has not been considered in coarse-scale simulations. Thus, the simulation of highly nonhomogeneous detailed cloth is prone to large errors. We introduce an effective method to simulate cloth made of nonhomogeneous, anisotropic materials....
