Abstract:
This paper performs direct numerical simulations of hypersonic boundary layer transition over a Hypersonic Transition Research Vehicle (HyTRV) model lifting body designed by the China Aerodynamic Research and Development Center. Transitions are simulated at four angles of attack: 0°, 3°, 5°, and 7°. The free-stream Mach number is 6, and the unit Reynolds number is 107 m−1. Four distinct transitional regions are identified: the shoulder cross-flow and vortex region and the shoulder vortex region on the leeward side, the windward vortex region and the windward cross-flow region on the windward s

Abstract:
A detailed numerical study of the separating and reattaching flow over a square leading-edge plate is presented, examining the instability modes governing transition from two- to three-dimensional flow. Under the influence of background noise, experiments show that the transition scenario typically is incompletely described by either global stability analysis or the transient growth of dominant optimal perturbation modes. Instead two-dimensional transition effectively can be triggered by the convective Kelvin–Helmholtz (KH) shear-layer instability; although it may be possible that this could b

Speed-related gait transitions occur in many animals, but it remains unclear what factors trigger gait changes. While the most widely accepted function of gait transitions is that they reduce locomotor costs, there is no obvious metabolic trigger signalling animals when to switch gaits. An alternative approach suggests that gait transitions serve to reduce locomotor instability. While there is evidence supporting this in humans, similar research has not been conducted in other species.

In the first, classical case of a linear branched resonance the transition is hard, that is, small changes in a control parameter lead to a finite-size state.

Abstract:
The transition from laminar to turbulent of the natural-convection flow inside a square, differentially heated cavity with adiabatic horizontal walls is calculated, using the finite-volume method. The purpose of this study is firstly to determine the dependence of the laminar-turbulent transition on the Prandtl number and secondly to investigate the physical mechanisms responsible for the bifurcations observed. It is found that in the square cavity, for Prandtl numbers between 0.25 and 2.0, the transition occurs through periodic and quasi-periodic flow regimes. One of the bifurcations is relat

Abstract:
Elasto-inertial turbulence (EIT), a new turbulent state found in polymer solutions with viscoelastic properties, is associated with drag-reduced turbulence. However, the relationship between EIT and drag-reduced turbulence is not currently well-understood, and it is important to elucidate the mechanism of the transition to EIT. The instability of viscoelastic fluids has been studied in a canonical wall-bounded shear flow to investigate the transition process of EIT. In this study, we numerically deduced that an instability occurs in the linearly stable viscoelastic plane Couette flow for lower

Abstract:
One of the very interesting aspects of high energy heavy-ion collisions experiments is a detailed study of the thermodynamical properties of strongly interacting nuclear matter away from the nuclear ground state. In this direction, many efforts were focused on searching for possible phase transitions in such collisions. We investigate thermodynamic instabilities in a hot and dense nuclear medium where a phase transition from nucleonic matter to resonance-dominated [Formula: see text]-matter can take place. Such a phase transition can be characterized by both mechanical instability (fluctuation
