Finite disturbance effect on the stability of a laminar incompressible wake behind a flat plate [PDF]
An integral method is used to investigate the interaction between a two-dimensional, single frequency finite amplitude disturbance in a laminar, incompressible wake behind a flat plate at zero incidence. The mean flow is assumed to be a non-parallel flow

Numerical simulation of a class of models that combine several mechanisms of dissipation: fracture, plasticity, viscous dissipation [PDF]
We study a class of time evolution models that contain dissipation mech- anisms exhibited by geophysical materials during deformation: plasticity, viscous dissipation and fracture. We formally prove that they satisfy a Clausius-Duhem type inequality.

Thermodynamics of an Accretion Disk Annulus with Comparable Radiation and Gas Pressure
We explore the thermodynamic and global structural properties of a local patch of an accretion disk whose parameters were chosen so that radiation pressure and gas pressure would be comparable in magnitude.

The magnitude of viscous dissipation in strongly stratified two-dimensional convection [PDF]
Convection in astrophysical systems must be maintained against dissipation. Although the effects of dissipation are often assumed to be negligible, theory suggests that in strongly stratified convecting fluids, the dissipative heating rate can exceed the

Area-Delay-Energy Tradeoffs of Strain-Mediated Multiferroic Devices
Multiferroic devices hold profound promise for ultra-low energy computing in beyond Moore's law era. The magnetization of a magnetostrictive shape-anisotropic single-domain nanomagnet strain-coupled with a piezoelectric layer in a multiferroic composite ...

Resonant Dampers for Parametric Instabilities in Gravitational Wave Detectors [PDF]
Advanced gravitational wave interferometric detectors will operate at their design sensitivity with nearly 1MW of laser power stored in the arm cavities. Such large power may lead to the uncontrolled growth of acoustic modes in the test masses due to the
