Rayleigh-Taylor and Richtmyer-Meshkov instabilities: A journey through scales
Zhou, Ye; Williams, Robin J. R.; Ramaprabhu, Praveen +9 more
Hydrodynamic instabilities such as Rayleigh-Taylor (RT) and Richtmyer-Meshkov (RM) instabilities usually appear in conjunction with the Kelvin-Helmholtz (KH) instability and are found in many natural phenomena and engineering applications. They frequently result in turbulent mixing, which has a major impact on the overall flow development and othe…
pp ii High-order shock-capturing methods for modeling dynamics of the solar atmosphere
Bryson, Steve; Kosovichev, Alexander; Levy, Doron
We use one-dimensional high-order central shock-capturing numerical methods to study the response of various model solar atmospheres to forcing at the solar surface. The dynamics of the atmosphere is modeled with the Euler equations in a variable-sized flux tube in the presence of gravity. We study dynamics of the atmosphere suggestive of spicule …
