Solar differential rotation and meridional flow: The role of a subadiabatic tachocline for the Taylor-Proudman balance [PDF]
We present a simple model for the solar differential rotation and meridional circulation based on a mean field parameterization of the Reynolds stresses that drive the differential rotation.

Reynolds stress of localized toroidal modes [PDF]
An investigation of the 2D toroidal eigenmode problem reveals the possibility of a new consistent 2D structure, the dissipative BM-II mode. In contrast to the conventional ballooning mode, the new mode is poloidally localized at {pi}/2 (or -{pi}/2), and possesses significant radial asymmetry.

New interpretation of specific sign of Reynolds stress in the boundary layer on a flat plate
: The specific sign of Reynolds stress in the boundary layer on a flat plate at zero incidence is newly interpreted in present paper based on the theory of vortex-induced vortex. It avoids some problems appeared in a traditional explanation, on the basis

Simulations of the Rotor-Stator-Cavity Flow in Liquid-Floating Rotor Micro Gyroscope
When rotating at a high speed in a microscale flow field in confined spaces, rotors are subject to a complex flow due to the joint effect of the centrifugal force, hindering of the stationary cavity and the scale effect.

Statistics of fully turbulent impinging jets [PDF]
Direct numerical simulations of sub- and supersonic impinging jets with Reynolds numbers of 3300 and 8000 are carried out to analyse their statistical properties. The influence of the parameters Mach number, Reynolds number and ambient temperature on the

Computational study of a complex three-dimensional shock boundary-layer interaction [PDF]
Shock boundary–layer interactions occur in many high-speed aerodynamic flows and they can have a notable impact on design considerations due to the aerodynamic and heat transfer effects.

Las ecuaciones de Reynolds y la relación de clausura
We posed the problem to obtain the closure relation for the Reynolds equations. And like secondary target, to obtain analytical expressions for the Reynolds stress. Showing its jump of discontinuity like expression of the rupture of the symmetry; the one
