Precipitation Moisture Sources of Ethiopian River Basins and Their Role During Drought Conditions

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2022
In this study, we identified and investigated the annual climatological moisture sources for the Ethiopian river basins during 1980–2018. First, according to cluster analysis, the 12 river basins of this country were grouped into four regions: northeast (

Competing Lagrangians for incompressible and compressible viscous flow [PDF]

open access: yesRoyal Society Open Science, 2019
A recently proposed variational principle with a discontinuous Lagrangian for viscous flow is reinterpreted against the background of stochastic variational descriptions of dissipative systems, underpinning its physical basis from a different viewpoint ...

The HyperCASL algorithm: A new approach to the numerical simulation of geophysical flows [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
We describe a major extension to the Contour-Advective Semi-Lagrangian (CASL) algorithm (Dritschel & Ambaum 1997, 2006). The extension, called ‘HyperCASL’ (HCASL), uses Lagrangian advection of material potential vorticity contours like CASL, but a Vortex-

Dissipative solitons with a Lagrangian approach [PDF]

open access: yesOptical Fiber Technology, 2007
We apply Lagrangian techniques to dissipative systems described by the complex Ginzburg–Landau equation (CGLE) that is used for modeling passively mode-locked fiber lasers and all-optical soliton transmission lines. In particular, using Lagrangian equations, we re-derive the known exact solutions of the CGLE.

Geometric Discretization of Lagrangian Mechanics and Field Theories [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
This thesis presents a unified framework for geometric discretization of highly oscillatory mechanics and classical field theories, based on Lagrangian variational principles and discrete differential forms. For highly oscillatory problems in mechanics,

The Fundamental Lepage Form in Two Independent Variables: A Generalization Using Order-Reducibility

open access: yesMathematics, 2022
A second-order generalization of the fundamental Lepage form of geometric calculus of variations over fibered manifolds with 2-dimensional base is described by means of insisting on (i) an equivalence relation “Lepage differential 2-form is closed if and

Lagrangian Averaging, Nonlinear Waves, and Shock Regularization [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
In this thesis, we explore various models for the flow of a compressible fluid as well as model equations for shock formation, one of the main features of compressible fluid flows.
