Is the suppression of short waves by a swell a three-dimensional effect?

We consider the phenomenon of suppression of short waves by a long wave, observed by Mitsuyasu in 1966. The recently proposed [1] essentially 3-D explanation of this phenomenon is reviewed and compared with more traditional 2-D explanations. Several physical implications of this 3-D explanation are suggested and the experimental verification is discussed.

High-amplitude elastic solitary wave propagation in 1-D granular chains with preconditioned beads: Experiments and theoretical analysis

Elastic solitary waves resulting from Hertzian contact in one-dimensional (1-D) granular chains have demonstrated promising properties for wave tailoring such as amplitude-dependent wave speed and acoustic band gap zones. However, as load increases, plasticity or other material nonlinearities significantly affect the contact behavior between particles and hence alter the elastic solitary wave formation. This restricts the possible exploitation of solitary wave properties to relatively low load levels (up to a few hundred Newtons). In this work, a method, which we term preconditioning, based on contact pre-yielding is implemented to increase the contact force elastic limit of metallic beads in contact and consequently enhance the ability of 1-D granular chains to sustain high-amplitude elastic solitary waves. Theoretical analyses of single particle deformation and of wave propagation in a 1-D chain under different preconditioning levels are presented, while a complementary experimental setup was developed to demonstrate such behavior in practice. The experimental results show that 1-D granular chains with preconditioned beads can sustain high amplitude (up to several kN peak force) solitary waves. The solitary wave speed is affected by both the wave amplitude and the preconditioning level, while the wave spatial wavelength is still close to 5 times the preconditioned bead size. Comparison between the theoretical and experimental results shows that the current theory can capture the effect of preconditioning level on the solitary wave speed.     

3-D numerical modelling of greenwater loading on fixed ship-shaped FPSOs

This work is focused on the assessment of greenwater overtopping onto fixed ship-shaped FPSO models using three dimensional (3-D) Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) simulations. Good agreement between the numerical results and published experimental data from Barcellona et al. (2003) indicates that 3-D CFD is an effective tool which may be used to assess greenwater associated with an incident wave group. Different wall-sided bow shapes are investigated numerically, and the results provide insight into how the bow shape influences the evolution of on-deck flows, and the horizontal force on a vertical wall spanning the full deck width for incident waves approaching normal to the bow. It is found that the horizontal force, thus, the horizontal momentum of greenwater flows, is a result of the combined action of water-front velocities and the corresponding water volume impacting on the structures. For the bow shapes considered in this study, although clear differences in on-deck flow are observed for different bow shape, differences in force on the vertical wall are relatively small. Simulations for a 2-D vertical rectangular box that has the same longitudinal section as the 3-D model FPSOs give somewhat similar results to 3-D predictions along the centre-line. This similarity may be due partly to the fact that increases in on-deck flow velocity due to increased freeboard exceedance in the 2-D simulations compensates for a lack of focusing of the on-deck flow observed in the 3-D simulations. This finding has implications for understanding how computationally cheaper 2-D greenwater simulations relate to more realistic 3-D greenwater events.     

Spatial numerical simulations of linear and weakly nonlinear wave instabilities in supersonic boundary layers

The spatial development of disturbances with small and moderate amplitudes in a two-dimensional (2-D) supersonic flat-plate boundary layer at Mach 4.8 is investigated using direct numerical simulations based on the compressible 3-D Navier-Stokes equations. Disturbances are introduced into the boundary layer by blowing and suction within a narrow disturbance strip at the wall. In response to the timewise periodic forcing, two types of disturbance waves are generated, a first-mode wave and a multiple-viscous-solution. The multiple-viscous-solution was described by Mack (1969, 1984) but was not seen before in a direct numerical simulation. The results of the simulations are compared with results of linear stability theory, and the agreement is very good. In simulations for larger amplitudes, fundamental resonance is observed, where both types of 3-D waves are nonlinearly amplified and synchronize their phase velocities with the 2-D disturbance waves. Subharmonic resonance is found for 3-D waves with large wave numbers, where the phase velocities of the linear 2-D and 3-D waves are nearly the same.This work was supported by the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (DFG), Bonn-Bad Godesberg, as part of SFB 259.     

The integrable Boussinesq equation and it’s breather,lump and soliton solutions

The fourth-order nonlinear Boussinesq water wave equation, which explains the propagation of long waves in shallow water, is explored in this article. We used the Lie symmetry approach to analyze the Lie symmetries and vector fields. Then, by using similarity variables, we obtained the symmetry reductions and soliton wave solutions. In addition, the Kudryashov method and its modification are used to explore the bright and singular solitons while the Hirota bilinear method is effectively used to obtain a form of breather and lump wave solutions. The physical explanation of the extracted solutions was shown with the free choice of different parameters by depicting some 2-D, 3-D, and their corresponding contour plots.

     

One-dimensional linear elastic waves at moving property interface

Smart materials exhibit time-varying properties while time-varying external field is applied. To investigate the one-dimensional (1-D) homogeneous time-varying properties, a moving property interface (MPI) model is proposed, and the propagation of linear elastic waves at 1-D MPI is studied in this paper. Based on the idea of weak solutions and an infinity approximation, a novel method to deal with the difficulties in using the continuities to study the waves at MPI is also proposed. Some interesting phenomena are revealed: (i) besides wave impedance, the property interface motion and wave velocity are also very important factors that influence the wave propagation; (ii) at MPI, there may exist shock waves; (iii) the property interface motion has a significant impact on the wave frequency and energy. This research provides a theoretical viewpoint in the study of smart materials with a time-dependent mechanical properties at different loading conditions.     

A DIRECT NUMERICAL SIMULATION OF CHANNEL FLOW TRANSITION UNDER AN EXTERNAL BODY FORCE

This research seeks to increase our understanding on the laminar-turbulent transition under an external body force. Direct numerical simulation by the spectral method with a weak formulation is used to solve the transient 3-D Navier-Stokes equations. Initial disturbances consist of the finite-amplitude 2-D Tollmien-Schlichting wave and two 3-D oblique waves. Competitions among different modes were computed during transition for different Richardson numbers.

It is found that the body force can modify the transition mechanism of flows between two vertical plates. The body force was found to hasten the formation of three-dimensional flow. A non-laminar flow induced by the body force may present when the background flow is still laminar.     

Self-switching of displacement waves in elastic nonlinearly deformed materialsSelf-commutation d'ondes de déplacement dans les milieux élastiques non-linéaires

The problem of self-switching plane waves in elastic nonlinearly deformed materials is formulated. Reduced and evolution equations, which describe the interaction of two waves the power pumping wave and the faint signal wave are obtained. For the case of wave numbers matching the pumping and signal waves, a procedure of finding the exact solution of evolution equations is described. The solution is expressed by elliptic Jacobi functions. The existence of the power wave self-switching is shown and commented. To cite this article: J. Rushchitsky, C. R.

An intermediate wavelength, weakly nonlinear theory for the evolution of capillary gravity waves

A new nonlinear evolution equation is derived for surface solitary waves propagating on a liquid-air interface where the wave motion is induced by a harmonic forcing. Instead of the traditional approach involving a base state of the long wave limit, a base state of harmonic waves is assumed for the perturbation analysis. This approach is considered to be more appropriate for channels of length just a few multiples of the depth. The dispersion relation found approaches the classical long wave limit. The weakly nonlinear dispersive waves satisfy a KdV-like nonlinear evolution equation with steeper nonlinearity.     

Stability properties of the vertical boundary layers in differentially heated cavities

In the present study, the two-dimensional (2-D) stability properties of the vertical boundary layers in a cavity that is differentially heated over two opposing vertical walls is considered. The study is performed by introducing artificial, controlled perturbations at the base of the vertical boundary layer along the hot cavity wall and by following the evolution of these disturbances. For small initial perturbations, the evolution is governed by linear effects. This method accurately predicts the frequency of the bifurcation, which occurs for (much) larger Rayleigh numbers. Convective instability sets in for Rayleigh numbers much smaller than those at which the absolute instability (i.e., the bifurcation) occurs, and these Rayleigh numbers are in reasonable agreement with those for the boundary layer along a plate. The absolute instability does not result from the first wave which becomes unstable. For small Prandtl numbers (≤ 2), the unstable waves which lead to the absolute instability are shear-driven, and a single frequency is introduced in the flow after the bifurcation. For larger Prandtl numbers, the unstable waves are buoyancy driven and no single-frequency unsteady flow is observed after the bifurcation.

Structure of weak shock waves in 2-D layered material systems

Shock waves in homogeneous materials in the absence of phase transitions are understood to have a one-wave structure. However, upon loading of a layered heterogeneous material system a two-wave structure is obtained––a leading shock front followed by a complex pattern that varies with time. This dual shock-wave pattern can be attributed to material architecture through which the shock wave propagates, i.e. the impedance (and geometric) mismatch present at various length scales, and nonlinearities arising from material inelasticity and failure.The objective of the present paper is to provide a better understanding of the role of material architecture in determining the structure of weak shock waves in 2-D layered material systems. Normal plate-impact experiments are conducted on 2-D layered material targets to obtain both the precursor decay and the late-time dispersion. The particle velocity at the free surface of the target plate is measured by using a multi-beam VALYN VISAR. In order to understand the effects of layer thickness and the distance of wave propagation on elastic precursor decay and late-time dispersion several different targets with various layer and target thicknesses are employed. Moreover, in order to understand the effects of material inelasticity both elastic–elastic and elastic–viscoelastic bilaminates are utilized.The results of these experiments are interpreted by using asymptotic techniques to analyze propagation of acceleration waves in 2-D layered material systems. The analysis makes use of the Laplace transform and Floquet theory for ODE’s with periodic coefficients [Asymptotic solutions for wave propagation in elastic and viscoelastic bilaminates. In: Developments in Mechanics, Proceedings of the 14th Mid-Eastern Mechanics Conference, vol. 26, no. 8, pp. 399–417]. Both wave-front and late-time solutions for step-pulse loading on layered half-space are compared with the experimental observations. The results of the study indicate that the structure of acceleration waves is strongly influenced by impedance mismatch of the layers constituting the laminates, density of interfaces, distance of wave propagation, and the material inelasticity.     

Propagation and Evolution of Wave Fronts in Two-Phase Porous Media

An investigation is made into the propagation and evolution of wave fronts in a porous medium which is intended to contain two phases: the porous solid, referred to as the skeleton, and the fluid within the interconnected pores formed by the skeleton. In particular, the microscopic density of each real material is assumed to be unchangeable, while the macroscopic density of each phase may change, associated with the volume fractions. A two-phase porous medium model is concisely introduced based on the work by de Boer. Propagation conditions and amplitude evolution of the discontinuity waves are presented by use of the idea of surfaces of discontinuity, where the wave front is treated as a surface of discontinuity. It is demonstrated that the saturation condition entails certain restrictions between the amplitudes of the longitudinal waves in the solid and fluid phases. Two propagation velocities are attained upon examining the existence of the discontinuity waves. It is found that a completely coupled longitudinal wave and a pure transverse wave are realizable in the two-phase porous medium. The discontinuity strength of the pore-pressure may be determined by the amplitude of the coupled longitudinal wave. In the case of homogeneous weak discontinuities, explicit evolution equations of the amplitudes for two types of discontinuity waves are derived.     

Scattering of elastic waves by a periodic array of cracks in 3-D space

The problem of scattering of normal incident time harmonic plane elastic waves by a co-planar periodic array of cracks in 3-D space is investigated. The scattered waves consist of a superposition of an infinite number of wave modes [M, N]^T and [M, N]^L,M. N=0, 1, 2, , but only a finite number of them are propagating wave modes. The numerical calculation has been made for rectangular cracks and P wave incidence. The reflection coefficient of [O, O] order,R ₀ ³ , has been studied in detail for various wave numbers and parameters of the geometry for the problem. The reliability of the numerical calculation has been checked by an application of the balance of rates of energies. For an elongated rectangular crack,R ₀ ³ in the corresponding 2-D problem in [2] is recovered. The dynamic stress intensity factors around the crack edge have been obtained. The results as the wave number goes to zero have been compared with those in the correspoding static case. Good agreement is observed.

Analysis of plane and cylindrical nonlinear hyperelastic waves in materials with internal structure

A comparative analysis of two types of hyperelastic waves—plane waves (with plane front) and cylindrical waves (with curved front)—is offered. The propagation of the waves is studied theoretically for quadratically nonlinear hyperelastic media and numerically for a class of unidirectional fibrous composite materials. Hyperelasticity is described using the classical Murnaghan potential and a structural model of the first order—the model of effective constants. The internal structure of materials is described by this model and is at the micro-or nanolevels in numerical analysis. Particular attention is given to the evolution of the wave profile. It is studied in three stages: (i) derivation of nonlinear wave equations, (ii) construction of solutions in the form of plane and cylindrical waves, and (iii) numerical analysis of the evolution of these waves in composites with microlevel (Thornel) or nanolevel (Z-CNT) fibers. The main similarities and differences between plane longitudinal and cylindrical waves are shown. The most unexpected result is the striking difference between the evolution patterns numerically observed for plane and cylindrical wave profiles __________ Translated from Prikladnaya Mekhanika, Vol. 42, No. 10, pp. 21–46, October 2006.     

Shock and wave dynamics in cavitating compressible liquid flows in injection nozzles

Due to the exceptional high inlet pressures up to 2,000 bar flow dynamics and efficiency of modern injection systems are controlled by high frequency wave dynamics of the compressible liquid flow. Corresponding to alternating shock and expansion waves the liquid fluid evaporates and recondenses instantaneously. Here we present CFD simulations of the time accurate evolution of cavitating flows in 2-D plane and in six-hole injection nozzles with focus on the wave dynamics just after initialisation of the flow and within the time scale Δt ≤ 10^?4 s of pilot and multi-point injection. Due to shock reflections at the bottom of the sack hole the instantaneous maximum pressure increases more than three times higher as compared with the prescribed pressure at the nozzle inlet. For instance, in case of an inlet pressure of 600 bar the maximum pressure in the sack and therefore ahead of the nozzle bore holes reaches about 2,100 bar. It is quite reasonable that this amplification of the pressure affects the evolution of the convective flow and therefore the mass flow through the nozzle bore holes.     

Multiple scales analysis of wave�Cwave interactions in?a?cubically nonlinear monoatomic chain

The interaction of waves in nonlinear media is of practical interest in the design of acoustic devices such as waveguides and filters. This investigation of the monoatomic mass?Cspring chain with a cubic nonlinearity demonstrates that the interaction of two waves results in different amplitude and frequency dependent dispersion branches for each wave, as opposed to a single amplitude-dependent branch when only a single wave is present. A theoretical development utilizing multiple time scales results in a set of evolution equations which are validated by numerical simulation. For the specific case where the wavenumber and frequency ratios are both close to 1:3 as in the long wavelength limit, the evolution equations suggest that small amplitude and frequency modulations may be present. Predictable dispersion behavior for weakly nonlinear materials provides additional latitude in tunable metamaterial design. The general results developed herein may be extended to three or more wave?Cwave interaction problems.
