Computational and Analytical Methods in Nonlinear Fluid Dynamics

reportActive / Technical Report | Accession Number: ADA272722 | Open PDF

Abstract:

The central focus of the program was on the application and development of modern analytical and computational methods to the solution of nonlinear problems in fluid dynamics and reactive gas dynamics. The research was carried out within the Division of Engineering Mathematics in the Department of Mechanical Engineering and Mechanics and principally involved Professors P A blythe, E Varley and J D A Walker. In addition. the program involved various international collaborations. Professor Blythe completed work on reactive gas dynamics with Professor D Crighton FRS of Cambridge University in the United Kingdom. Professor Walker and his students carried out joint work with Professor F T Smith, of University College London on various problems in unsteady flow and turbulent boundary layers.
