This book was released on 1984 with total page 106 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the presence of magnetic induction and electrical fields several types of discontinuities may exist in an electrically conducting fluid. These phenomena can be described by the laws of conservation of mass, momentum, and energy; Maxwell's electromagnetic equations, and Ohm's law. Those discontinuities, which can be characterized by the conditions that both the temperature and density change across them are different from zero, are called magneto-hydrodynamic shock waves. This monograph is concerned with the study of these types of discontinuities.

This book was released on 2013-04-17 with total page 292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For seventy years, we have known that Einstein's theory is essentially a theory of propagation of waves for the gravitational field. Confusion enters, however, through the fact that the word wave, in physics, implies sometimes repetition and sometimes not. This confusion is often increased by he use of Fourier transforms, by which a disturbanse which appears to be without repetition is resolved into periodic wave-trains with all frequencies. But, in a general curved space-time, we have nothing corresponding to Fourier transforms. Here, we consider systematically waves corresponding to the propagation of discontinuities of physical quantities describing either fields (essentially electromagnetic fields and gravitational field), or the motion of a fluid, or together, in magnetohydrodynamics, the changes in time of a field and of a fluid. The main equations, for the different studied phenomena, constitute a hyperbolic system and the study of a formal Cauchy problem is possible. We call ordinary waves the case in which the derivative of superior order appearing in the system are discontinuous at the traverse of a hypersurface, the wave front ; we call shock waves the case where the derivatives of an order inferior by one are discontinuous at the traverse of a wave front. XI xii PREFACE From 1950, many well-known scientits (Taub, Synge, Choquet-B ruhat, etc.) have studied the corresponding equations for different physical phenomena : systems associated to the electromagnetic and gravitational fields, to hydrodynamics and to magnetohydrodynamics.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The multi-component continuous approach for the investigation of the gasdynamics of a plasma is presented. More information about the flow properties of a plasma can be obtained than from the classical magnetohydrodynamic approach. Also, the resulting equations appear to be more easily solved than the Blotzmann equation of classical kinetic theory. The basic macroscopic conservation equations for a non-reacting multi-component plasma are presented. The fluid properties of each component are referred to the mean velocity of that component. Therefore, no limitations are placed on the magnitude of the diffusion velocities. The effects of electric and magnetic fields are included. The equations for a two-component mixture are used to study the structure of a shock wave in a fully-ionized hydrogen gas. It is assumed that the momentum exchange and energy exchange between the ions and electrons are important because of the strong Coulomb forces present. (Author).

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Studies based on the Rankine-Hugoniot relations have classified MHO shock waves as fast, switch-on, intermediate, switch-off, and slow. Any waves found in nature must also: (a) possess steady-state structures and (b) be stable in the presence of small-flow disturbances. In this monograph, Dr. Anderson examines these criteria in relation to plane shocks for which the collision frequency is large compared with cyclotron frequency. It contains a three-dimensional graphic representation of shock end states and presents an exact solution for the shock adiabatic curve in a convenient form. An MIT Press Research Monograph.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The jump conditions across a transverse ionizing MHD shock wave, where the magnetic field is in the plane of the shock, are examined. The simple conservation laws, in conjunction with Maxwell's laws and the equation of a state, yield three jump equations in four unknowns. The ionizing wave, then, requires an additional descriptive relationship for a unique solution to the jump equations to exist. Several theories which attempt to supply this missing relationship are examined including the theory of Lyubimov and Kulikovskii and later, Chu, where the internal structure of the shock, itself, supplies the missing relationship. In particular, Lyubimov and Kulikovskii show, for appropriate ratios of the thermal diffusivity to the magnetic diffusivity, that for low speed shock waves the magnetic field compression across the shock is unity and the jump equations reduce to the ordinary Rankine-Hugoniot relations. For high speed shock waves, the magnetic field compression is equal to the gas compression across the wave, and the jump equations became exactly the magnetohydrodynamic jump relations. Furthermore, intermediate speed shocks experience a magnetic field compression between 1 and rho sub 2/rho sub 1. (Author).
