We have presented the mathematical model, which can be the basis of determination of a numerical algorithm for the thickness of concentration boundary layers calculation for ternary nonelectrolyte solutions. This model is based on Rayleigh equation and second Kedem-Katchalsky equation for ternary solutions. In proposed model, the thickness of concentration boundary layers is controlled by conce...

This paper compares the mean acquisition time (MAT) performance of two serial search acquisition schemes over frequency-selective multipath Rayleigh fading channels. Both the conventional cell-by-cell detection and the novel joint two-cell detection are characterized. In contrast to the majority of published results considering only one correct timing state ( 1 cell) in the uncertainty region o...

The effect of imperfectly conducting bounding plates on the heat transport in turbulent thermal convection in the Rayleigh-Bénard problem is considered in the context of analytical upper bounds. Beginning with the evolution equations in the fluid in the Boussinesq approximation, coupled through temperature and flux continuity to identical upper and lower conducting plates with diffusive heat fl...

By combining a quantum treatment of the radiation field with a superoperator formalism we present compact expressions for a broad variety of coherent and incoherent nonlinear optical signals. Spontaneous signals are classified according to the molecular coherence range: homodyne detected signals result from long range two particle coherence whereas Rayleigh and hyper-Rayleigh scattering are sho...

The dynamics and bifurcations of convective waves in rotating and buoyancy-driven spherical Rayleigh-Bénard convection are investigated numerically. The solution branches that arise as rotating waves (RWs) are traced by means of path-following methods, by varying the Rayleigh number as a control parameter for different rotation rates. The dependence of the azimuthal drift frequency of the RWs o...

It is shown that homogeneous Rayleigh-Bénard flow, i.e., Rayleigh-Bénard turbulence with periodic boundary conditions in all directions and a volume forcing of the temperature field by a mean gradient, has a family of exact, exponentially growing, separable solutions of the full nonlinear system of equations. These solutions are clearly manifest in numerical simulations above a computable criti...

Turbo coding in correlated Rayleigh fading channels is improved by outer block interleaving, but with added complexity and delay. Choosing the wrong number of columns can increase the BER, so a reconfigurable block interleaver with column number optimised for different operating environments is useful. Simulation results are presented for the four block interleaver configurations specified for ...

The multiplicity of stable convection patterns in a rotating spherical fluid shell heated from the inner boundary and driven by a central gravity field is presented. These solution branches that arise as rotating waves (RWs) are traced for varying Rayleigh number while their symmetry, stability, and bifurcations are studied. At increased Rayleigh numbers all the RWs undergo transitions to modul...

We study the fine-scale statistics of temperature and its derivatives in turbulent RayleighBénard convection. Direct numerical simulations are carried out in a cylindrical cell with unit aspect ratio filled with a fluid with Prandtl number equal to 0.7 for Rayleigh numbers between 10 and 10. The probability density function of the temperature or its fluctuations is found to be always non-Gaussi...

Realistic boundaries of finite heat conductivity for thermoconvection in a Rayleigh-Bénard setup with magnetized ferrofluids are investigated. A linear stability analysis of the conductive state is performed with a shooting method. It shows that the critical wave number is for any magnetic field stronly influenced by the conductivity of the boundaries. Linear as well as nonlinear coefficients o...
