Abstract: This paper treats the buoyant convection of a molten semiconductor in a cylindrical crucible with a vertical axis, with a uniform vertical magnetic field, and with a non-axisymmetric temperature. ...

Abstract: A new theory for the propagation of pressure pulses in an inviscid compressible fluid contained in a thin-walled elastic tube is presented. This theory represents an improvement over the classical ...

Abstract: The method of normal modes is used to examine the stability of an azimuthal base flow to both axisymmetric and plane-polar disturbances for an electrically conducting fluid confined between ...

Abstract: Many metallurgical applications of magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) involve open-channel liquid-metal flows with magnetic fields. This paper treats the three-dimensional, variable-depth flow in a rectangular ...

Abstract: During semiconductor crystal growth with an externally applied magnetic field, thermoelectric currents may drive a melt circulation which affects the properties of the crystal. This paper treats ...

Abstract: This paper treats a liquid-metal flow in a rectangular duct with a strong, uniform, transverse magnetic field and with thin metal walls, except for two finite-length, perfectly conducting ...
