Axisymmetry of mantle aspherical structures

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 1995
Recent seismic tomographic models have revealed broad, low velocity anomalies in the lower mantle beneath Africa and the central Pacific that correspond to the poles of the surface geotectonic reference network. We test the hypothesis that the tomographic models are axisymmetrical with respect to axes passing near the geotectonic poles. The symmetry is

Existence of axisymmetric weak solutions of the 3-D Euler equations for near-vortex-sheet initial data

open access: yesElectronic Journal of Differential Equations, 1998
We study the initial value problem for the 3-D Euler equation when the fluid is inviscid and incompressible, and flows with axisymmetry and without swirl.

Large-eddy simulation of bluff-body stabilized premixed flames with low-dissipative, structure-preserving convection schemes

open access: yesAIP Advances, 2023
Large eddy simulation (LES) has the potential to predict turbulent combustion phenomena in modern practical combustors. As errors from sub-grid models may be comparable to the numerical errors in the LES approach, mitigating the impact of the numerical ...

Planetary nebulae that cannot be explained by binary systems

open access: yes, 2017
We examine the images of hundreds of planetary nebulae (PNe) and find that for about one in six PNe the morphology is too `messy' to be accounted for by models of stellar binary interaction.

Three-dimensional solutions for the geostrophic flow in the Earth's core [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
In his seminal work, Taylor (1963) argued that the geophysically relevant limit for dynamo action within the outer core is one of negligibly small inertia and viscosity in the magnetohydrodynamic equations. Within this limit, he showed the existence of a

A Lagrangian Description of Pulsation, Tilting, Axisymmetrization, and Meandering Trajectory in an Anticyclonic Eddy

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Oceans, Volume 131, Issue 2, February 2026.
Abstract Mesoscale eddies pulsate, tilt with depth, and deform, but these processes are rarely resolved together from multi‐depth Lagrangian observations. We analyze a long‐lived intrathermocline anticyclonic eddy in the Canary Eddy Corridor using four drifters spanning 15–150 m and a novel, position‐only ellipse‐fitting method based on axis‐aligned ...

Axisymmetric solutions of a two-dimensional nonlinear wave system with a two-constant equation of state

open access: yesElectronic Journal of Differential Equations, 2017
We study a special class of Riemann problem with axisymmetry for two-dimensional nonlinear wave equations with the equation of state $p=A_1\rho^{\gamma_1}+A_2\rho^{\gamma_2 ...

Solar surface rotation: N-S asymmetry and recent speed-up

open access: yes, 2015
Context. The relation between solar surface rotation and sunspot activity still remains open. Sunspot activity has dramatically reduced in solar cycle 24 and several solar activity indices and flux measurements experienced unprecedentedly low levels ...

Large contact angle hysteresis enhances post‐impact droplet oscillations

open access: yesDroplet, Volume 5, Issue 1, January 2026.
Contact angle hysteresis (CAH) sustains high‐order droplet oscillations after impact by enabling nonlinear energy transfer between modes, leading to persistent modulated shape dynamics. Abstract Droplet impact on solid surfaces plays a critical role in a wide range of applications, including inkjet printing, spray cooling, surface coatings, and ...

Support Structure Modelling in Actuator Line Method Large Eddy Simulations of Wind Turbine Wakes

open access: yesWind Energy, Volume 29, Issue 1, January 2026.
ABSTRACT While advancements in the prediction of wind turbine loads and wakes within the actuator line method large eddy simulation (ALM‐LES) framework have been an active research topic in recent years, the modelling of the tower and nacelle has received comparatively less attention.
