The compressible turbulent shear layer: an experimental study [PDF]

open access: yes, 1988
The growth rate and turbulent structure of the compressible, plane shear layer are investigated experimentally in a novel facility. In this facility, it is possible to flow similar or dissimilar gases of different densities and to select different Mach ...

Cosmic Mach Number as a Function of Overdensity and Galaxy Age [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
We carry out an extensive study of the cosmic Mach number (\mach) on scales of R=5, 10 and 20h^-1Mpc using an LCDM hydrodynamical simulation. We particularly put emphasis on the environmental dependence of \mach on overdensity, galaxy mass, and galaxy ...

Local well-posedness and low Mach number limit of the compressible magnetohydrodynamic equations in critical spaces [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
The local well-posedness and low Mach number limit are considered for the multi-dimensional isentropic compressible viscous magnetohydrodynamic equations in critical spaces.

Low Mach number effect in simulation of high Mach number flow

open access: yes, 2012
In this note, we relate the two well-known difficulties of Godunov schemes: the carbuncle phenomena in simulating high Mach number flow, and the inaccurate pressure profile in simulating low Mach number flow.

Mach Number Dependence of Electron Heating in High Mach Number Quasiperpendicular Shocks

open access: yes, 2010
Efficiency of electron heating through microinstabilities generated in the transition region of a quasi-perpendicular shock for wide ange of Mach numbers is investigated by utilizing PIC (Particle-In-Cell) simulation and model analyses.

Quasiperpendicular high Mach number Shocks

open access: yes, 2015
Shock waves exist throughout the universe and are fundamental to understanding the nature of collisionless plasmas. Reformation is a process, driven by microphysics, which typically occurs at high Mach number supercritical shocks.

Low Mach Number Modeling of Type Ia Supernovae

open access: yes, 2005
We introduce a low Mach number equation set for the large-scale numerical simulation of carbon-oxygen white dwarfs experiencing a thermonuclear deflagration.

A Low Mach Number Model for Moist Atmospheric Flows

open access: yes, 2015
We introduce a low Mach number model for moist atmospheric flows that accurately incorporates reversible moist processes in flows whose features of interest occur on advective rather than acoustic time scales. Total water is used as a prognostic variable,

Low Mach Number Fluctuating Hydrodynamics for Electrolytes

open access: yes, 2016
We formulate and study computationally the low Mach number fluctuating hydrodynamic equations for electrolyte solutions. We are interested in studying transport in mixtures of charged species at the mesoscale, down to scales below the Debye length, where

The effect of Mach number on unstable disturbances in shock/boundary-layer interactions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
The effect of Mach number on the growth of unstable disturbances in a boundary layer undergoing a strong interaction with an impinging oblique shock wave is studied by direct numerical simulation and linear stability theory (LST). To reduce the number of
