Abstract: A general numerical method to solve for the steady parallel fully developed flow in ducts of arbitrary shape is illustrated and compared to analytic solutions for simple shapes. A straight ...

Abstract: A large class of wave structures in quasigeostrophic flow have instantaneous growth rates significantly larger than normal-mode growth rates. Since energy and potential enstrophy growth rates can be defined as functions ...

Abstract: An experimental study is described in which both time-averaged and time-resolved effects of wake passing were measured in a cylinder stagnation region. The experiments were carried out in an ...

Abstract: Project Web sites comprise a new and rapidly growing category of software tool in the design and construction industry. There are now dozens of firms selling these tools and hundreds if not thousands of project teams using ...

Abstract: The two-dimensional interaction of a circular shear flow and a sector cavity flow is predicted by finite-difference solution of the governing biharmonic equation for steady Stokes planar flow. ...

Abstract: The oscillatory cavity flows reported here are extensions of previously studied steady closed rectangular cavity flows (box flows). The periodic laminar incompressible flows are characterized by ...
