Abstract: We consider the steady flow of five commonly encountered hydrocarbons in their dense gas regime. Isentropic flows are first examined and it is shown that dense gas effects lead to a non-monotone ...

Abstract: The steady, two-dimensional interaction of an oblique shock with a laminar flat-plate boundary layer has been examined through use of the Beam-Warming implicit scheme. A wide range of fluids ...

Abstract: We discuss the validity of similarity and scaling laws for transonic flow and compressible boundary layers when dense gas effects are important. The physical mechanisms for the failure of each ...

Abstract: Strongly shoaling solutions to the variable coefficient Korteweg-deVries equation have been obtained for arbitrary initial or off-shore waveforms and depth variations. Although the solutions were ...
