Spiral galaxies that move through the intracluster medium lose a substantial amount of their gas discs due to ram pressure stripping. The recent observations of NGC 4388 by Oosterloo & van Gorkom (2005) reveal a tail of stripped gas of ∼ 100 kpc behind the source galaxy. We present first 3D hydrodynamical simulations of the evolution of such ram pressure stripped tails. We find that if the ICM ...

In this paper, the buckling and vibration behaviour of functionally graded flexoelectric nanobeam is examined. The vibration and buckling formulations of functionally graded nanobeam are developed by using a new theory that’s presented exclusively for flexoelecteric nano-materials. So by considering Von-Karman strain and forming enthalpy equation based on displacement, polarization and electric...

In this paper, an elastic shell model is presented for postbuckling prediction of a long thinwalledcylindrical shell under axial compression. The Ritz method is applied to solve the governingequilibrium equation of a cylindrical shell model based on the von-Karman type nonlinear differentialequations. The postbuckling equilibrium path is obtained using the energy method for a long thin-walledcy...

The interference of the direct wave from the point source to the receiver and the wave reflected from the impedance ground in a turbulent atmosphere is studied. A parabolic equation approach for calculating the sound pressure p at the receiver is formulated. Then, the parabolic equation is solved by the Rytov method yielding expressions for the complex phases of direct and ground-reflected wave...

[1] Boundary layer turbulence plays a central role in determining the strength of the overall atmospheric circulation by affecting the intensity of exchange of heat, mass, and momentum at the Earth’s surface. It is often parameterized using the bulk formula, in which the vonKarman parameter plays a critical role. Here we conducted a range of sensitivity simulations with an atmospheric general c...

Three types of analyses are combined to investigate the effect of missing fibers in periodic continuous fiber composites that are subjected to thermomechanical loadings. The representative cell method is employed in the first analysis for the construction of Green’s functions elastic fields for the fiber–matrix interfacial jumps problem. As a result, the infinite domain problem is reduced, in c...

The aim of this article is to study the dynamic Von-Karman model coupledwith thermoelastic equations without rotational terms, subject a thermal dissipation. We establish existence as well uniqueness weak solution related model. At end, we apply finite difference method for approximating our problem.

A stochastic model is derived to predict the turbulent torque produced by a swirling flow. It is a simple Langevin process, with a colored noise. Using the unified colored noise approximation, we derive analytically the PDF of the fluctuations of injected power in two forcing regimes: constant angular velocity or constant applied torque. In the limit of small velocity fluctuations and vanishing...
