ASTROPHYSICAL FLUID DYNAMICS VIA DIRECT STATISTICAL SIMULATION [PDF]

open access: bronzeThe Astrophysical Journal, 2011
In this paper we introduce the concept of Direct Statistical Simulation (DSS) for astrophysical flows. This technique may be appropriate for problems in astrophysical fluids where the instantaneous dynamics of the flows are of secondary importance to ...

Astrophysical fluid dynamics [PDF]

open access: bronzeJournal of Plasma Physics, 2016
These lecture notes and example problems are based on a course given at the University of Cambridge in Part III of the Mathematical Tripos. Fluid dynamics is involved in a very wide range of astrophysical phenomena, such as the formation and internal dynamics of stars and giant planets, the workings of jets and accretion discs around stars and black ...

Laboratory Experiments in Geophysical and Astrophysical Fluid Dynamics

open access: hybridAnnual Review of Fluid Mechanics
Geophysical and astrophysical fluid dynamics (GAFD) is an interdisciplinary field. It encompasses a wide range of fluid systems, from planetary atmospheres and the oceans of Earth and icy moons to the interiors of telluric planets, giant planets, and stars. It also spans vast timescales and space scales.

Reduced MHD and Astrophysical Fluid Dynamics [PDF]

open access: bronzeProceedings of the International Astronomical Union, 2010
AbstractRecent work has shown a relationship between between the equations of Reduced Magnetohydrodynamics (RMHD), used to model magnetic fusion laboratory experiments, and incompressible magnetoconvection (IMC), employed in the simulation of astrophysical fluid dynamics (AFD), which means that the two systems are mathematically equivalent in certain ...

Geophysical and astrophysical fluid dynamics beyond the traditional approximation [PDF]

open access: bronzeReviews of Geophysics, 2008
In studies on geophysical fluid dynamics, it is common practice to take the Coriolis force only partially into account by neglecting the components proportional to the cosine of latitude, the so‐called traditional approximation (TA). This review deals with the consequences of abandoning the TA, based on evidence from numerical and theoretical studies ...

Computational Astrophysical Fluid Dynamics [PDF]

open access: closedComputers in Physics, 1991
The field of astrophysical fluid dynamics (AFD) is described as an emerging discipline which derives historically from both the theory of stellar evolution and space plasma physics. The fundamental physical assumption behind AFD is that fluid equations of motion accurately describe the evolution of plasmas on scales that are large in comparison with ...

Well-balanced treatment of gravity in astrophysical fluid dynamics simulations at low Mach numbers [PDF]

open access: bronzeAstronomy & Astrophysics, 2021
Context. Accurate simulations of flows in stellar interiors are crucial to improving our understanding of stellar structure and evolution. Because the typically slow flows are merely tiny perturbations on top of a close balance between gravity and the ...
