Spark ignition of propane-air mixtures near the minimum ignition energy: Part II. A model development
(Elsevier, 1991-01)
A model is developed to simulate the kernel growth observed in the exprimental study of Part I. Kernel growth, described as a two-step process, initially involves a blast wave over a negligible short time followed by a ...
On Travelling Waves for the Stochastic Fisher–Kolmogorov–Petrovsky–Piscunov Equation
(Kluwer Academic Publishers-Plenum Publishers; Springer Science+Business Media, Inc., 2005-08)
This paper is concerned with properties of the wave speed for the stochastically perturbed Fisher–Kolmogorov–Petrovsky–Piscunov (FKPP) equation. It was shown in the classical 1937 paper by Kolmogorov, Petrovsky and Piscunov ...
Gyroscopically Stabilized Oscillators and Heat Baths
(Kluwer Academic Publishers-Plenum Publishers; Plenum Publishing Corporation ; Springer Science+Business Media, 2004-05)
In this paper we analyze the stability of a gyroscopic oscillator interacting with a finite- and infinite-dimensional heat bath in both the classical and quantum cases. We consider a finite gyroscopic oscillator model of ...
Investigation of matter enhanced neutrino oscillations relevant to the solar neutrino problem
(Elsevier, 1987-01-29)
We study the effect of matter enhanced neutrino oscillations on atmospheric neutrinos. A recently proposed solution to the solar neutrino problem with [Delta]m2 = 1.1 x 10-4 eV2 suggests enhanced effects in the range 200 ...
Infinite Prandtl Number Convection
(Kluwer Academic Publishers-Plenum Publishers; Kluwer Academic/Plenum Publishers ; Springer Science+Business Media, 1999-01)
We prove an inequality of the type N ≤ CR 1/3 (1+log + R ) 2/3 for the Nusselt number N in terms of the Rayleigh number R for the equations describing three-dimensional Rayleigh–Bénard convection in the limit of infinite ...
Stability of coextrusion through converging dies
(Elsevier, 1991-12)
A linear stability analysis of multilayer flow of viscoelastic liquids through long, converging dies is performed by a rigorous two-dimensional analysis (2-D), as well as by a simplified one-dimensional analysis (1-D) on ...
A phase cell approach to Yang-Mills theory
(Springer-Verlag, 1987-06)
In this paper the basic local stability result is obtained, in a form valid in both small field and large field regions. To achieve this, some modifications are made in both the action and the renormalization group ...
Percolation and cluster distribution. III. Algorithms for the site-bond problem
(Kluwer Academic Publishers-Plenum Publishers; Plenum Publishing Corporation ; Springer Science+Business Media, 1979-11)
Algorithms for estimating the percolation probabilities and cluster size distribution are given in the framework of a Monte Carlo simulation for disordered lattices for the generalized site-bond problem. The site-bond ...
Renormalization scheme dependence in e+e- annihilation and [tau]-lepton decay at the next-to-next-to-leading order of perturbative QCD
(Elsevier, 1991-09-12)
We present a detailed investigation of the renormalization scheme dependence of the next-to-next-to-leading order QCD predictions for the processes e+e--->hadrons and [tau]-->[nu][tau]+hadrons. Based on it the ...
