This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 396 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this volume is to present a clear and systematic account of the mathematical methods of wave phenomena in solids, gases, and water that will be readily accessible to physicists and engineers. The emphasis is on developing the necessary mathematical techniques, and on showing how these mathematical concepts can be effective in unifying the physics of wave propagation in a variety of physical settings: sound and shock waves in gases, water waves, and stress waves in solids. Nonlinear effects and asymptotic phenomena will be discussed. Wave propagation in continuous media (solid, liquid, or gas) has as its foundation the three basic conservation laws of physics: conservation of mass, momentum, and energy, which will be described in various sections of the book in their proper physical setting. These conservation laws are expressed either in the Lagrangian or the Eulerian representation depending on whether the boundaries are relatively fixed or moving. In any case, these laws of physics allow us to derive the "field equations" which are expressed as systems of partial differential equations. For wave propagation phenomena these equations are said to be "hyperbolic" and, in general, nonlinear in the sense of being "quasi linear" . We therefore attempt to determine the properties of a system of "quasi linear hyperbolic" partial differential equations which will allow us to calculate the displacement, velocity fields, etc.

Download or read book Water Waves Generated by Underwater Explosion written by Bernard Le Mehaute and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 1996 with total page 398 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the first book on explosion-generated water waves. It presents the theoretical foundations and experimental results of the generation and propagation of impulsively generated waves resulting from underwater explosions. Many of the theories and concepts presented herein are applicable to other types of water waves, in particular, tsunamis and waves generated by the fall of a meteorite. Linear and nonlinear theories, as well as experimental calibrations, are presented for cases of deep and shallow water explosions. Propagation of transient waves on dissipative, nonuniform bathymetries together with laboratory simulations are analyzed and discussed.

Download or read book Shallow Water Hydrodynamics written by W.Y. Tan and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 1992-08-17 with total page 449 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Within this monograph a comprehensive and systematic knowledge on shallow-water hydrodynamics is presented. A two-dimensional system of shallow-water equations is analyzed, including the mathematical and mechanical backgrounds, the properties of the system and its solution. Also featured is a new mathematical simulation of shallow-water flows by compressible plane flows of a special virtual perfect gas, as well as practical algorithms such as FDM, FEM, and FVM. Some of these algorithms have been utilized in solving the system, while others have been utilized in various applied fields. An emphasis has been placed on several classes of high-performance difference schemes and boundary procedures which have found wide uses recently for solving the Euler equations of gas dynamics in aeronautical and aerospatial engineering. This book is constructed so that it may serve as a handbook for practicians. It will be of interest to scientists, designers, teachers, postgraduates and professionals in hydraulic, marine, and environmental engineering; especially those involved in the mathematical modelling of shallow-water bodies.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first of its kind in the field, this title examines the use of modern, shock-capturing finite volume numerical methods, in the solution of partial differential equations associated with free-surface flows, which satisfy the shallow-water type assumption (including shallow water flows, dense gases and mixtures of materials as special samples). Starting with a general presentation of the governing equations for free-surface shallow flows and a discussion of their physical applicability, the book goes on to analyse the mathematical properties of the equations, in preparation for the presentation of the exact solution of the Riemann problem for wet and dry beds. After a general introduction to the finite volume approach, several chapters are then devoted to describing a variety of modern shock-capturing finite volume numerical methods, including Godunov methods of the upwind and centred type. Approximate Riemann solvers following various approaches are studied in detail as is their use in the Godunov approach for constructing low and high-order upwind TVD methods. Centred TVD schemes are also presented. Two chapters are then devoted to practical applications. The book finishes with an overview of potential practical applications of the methods studied, along with appropriate reference to sources of further information. Features include: * Algorithmic and practical presentation of the methods * Practical applications such as dam-break modelling and the study of bore reflection patterns in two space dimensions * Sample computer programs and accompanying numerical software (details available at www.numeritek.com) The book is suitable for teaching postgraduate students of civil, mechanical, hydraulic and environmental engineering, meteorology, oceanography, fluid mechanics and applied mathematics. Selected portions of the material may also be useful in teaching final year undergraduate students in the above disciplines. The contents will also be of interest to research scientists and engineers in academia and research and consultancy laboratories.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The theory of oblique reflection of low amplitude exponential shock waves is considered in more detail than in preceding report (NavOrd 424) and is extended to include higher order reflections in shallow water. Errors arising from the use of the plane wave approximation are discussed. Recently published data on the attenuation of harmonic sound waves in sea water are used to develop a theory of the effect of viscous attenuation on the front of a shock wave propagating over long ranges. Crude correction is made for the compensating effects of finite amplitude. Experimental data on impulse and energy flux at long ranges are reported. The energy dissipation is analyzed in terms of the theory of viscous attenuation and attempt is made to account for the slope of the pressure-distance curve. Experimental data on negative gauge pressures in surface reflections are reported and analyzed in terms of a new treatment of the expected region of bulk cavitation. The data indicate a very low value of the “breaking tension: of sea water. An improved micro coulometer circuit for the calibration of piezoelectric gauges is described.
Download or read book Higher Approximation to Nonlinear Water Waves and the Limiting Heights of Cnoidal Solitary and Stokes Waves written by Edmund V. Laitone and published by . This book was released on 1963 with total page 118 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: To obtain the first and second approximations to solitary and cnoidal waves the shallow water expansion method of Friedrichs and Keller is carried out to the fourth order. It is shown that the rigorous first approximation to these amplitude waves of permanent form is identical to the solution first given by Korteweg and deVries in 1895. The second approximation however results in some new expressions for predicting the behavior of long waves in shallow water. Limiting amplitude is found to be 8/11 of the free water depth for the solitary wave. The third approximation to Stokes waves in water of finite depth is verified by the use of the classical small-perturbation expansion method. For finite amplitude waves the series expansion is found to be in terms of a parameter most suitable for wavelengths shorter than 8 times the depth. Rather severe restrictions inherent in the well-known analogy between the nonlinear shallow water flow and two-dimensional perfect gas flow are pointed out. (Author).

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume deals with the propagation of three-dimensional shock waves and their reflection from curved walls. It is divided into two parts. The first part presents a ray method. This is based on the expansion of fluid properties in power series at an arbitrary point on the shock front. Continuous fractions are used. Results for shock propagation in non-uniform fluids are given.The second part discusses the shock reflection from a concave body. The important shock-focusing problem is included. The work is supported by both numerical and experimental results. Many interesting features, such as formation of a jet, vortices and the appearance of disturbances on the shock front, are discussed.Besides shock waves in gases, the distinctive features of shock propagation through a weakly ionized plasma are considered.
Download or read book Shock Wave Propagation Through Aerated Water written by and published by . This book was released on 2000 with total page 46 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The objective of the research described here was to measure the shock and bubble characteristics in aerated water and water that is approximately air-free. For these measurements, we used SRI's water shock pool facility located at Corral Hollow Experiment Site (CHES) near Tracy, California. Obtaining SZ-like aerated water characteristics with respect to bubble size and air content required conducting the experiments in saltwater; thus, salt was added to the CHES pool facility to bring the density up to 1.022 g/cu cm, which is representative of ocean seawater. To generate aerated water in the pool, we flowed gas through a bass wood bubble generator located on the pool bottom. The experiments were conducted in aerated water with an air-content of approximately 1.6% 0.2%. Pressure measurements were made at 6.1, 8.1, and 12.5 inches from a 49-g Comp B explosive charge. With respect to air-free water, the shock peak pressure, impulse, and energy in the aerated water were reduced by factors of approximately 2.9, 1.2, and 3.3, respectively. The explosive charge bubble peak pressure, impulse, and energy were reduced by factors of 2.0, 1.4, and 2.6, respectively.
