The interaction of the nonlinear internal waves with a nonuniform current with a specific form, characteristic for the equatorial undercurrent, is studied. The current has no vorticity in the layer, where the internal wave motion takes place. We show that the nonzero vorticity that might be occuring in other layers of the current does not affect the wave motion. The equations of motion are formulated as a Hamiltonian system.

We revisit the problem on the inner structure of shock waves in simple gases modelized by the Boltzmann kinetic equation. In cite{pomeau1987shock}, a self-similarity approach was proposed for infinite total cross section resulting from a power law in teraction, but this self-similar form does not have finite energy. Motivated by the work of Pomeau, Bobylev and Cercignani started the rigorous study of the solutions of the spatial homogeneous Boltzmann equation, focusing on those which do not have finite energy cite{bobylev2002self,bobylev2003eternal}. In the present work, we provide a correction to the self-similar form, so that the solutions are more physically sound in the sense that the energy is no longer infinite and that the perturbation brought by the shock does not grow at large distances of it on the cold side in the soft potential case.
The universal power law for the spectrum of one-dimensional breaking Riemann waves is justified for the simple wave equation. The spectrum of spatial amplitudes at the breaking time $t = t_b$ has an asymptotic decay of $k^{-4/3}$, with corresponding energy spectrum decaying as $k^{-8/3}$. This spectrum is formed by the singularity of the form $(x-x_b)^{1/3}$ in the wave shape at the breaking time. This result remains valid for arbitrary nonlinear wave speed. In addition, we demonstrate numerically that the universal power law is observed for long time in the range of small wave numbers if small dissipation or dispersion is accounted in the viscous Burgers or Korteweg-de Vries equations.

Due to the limited cell resolution in the representation of flow variables, a piecewise continuous initial reconstruction with discontinuous jump at a cell interface is usually used in modern computational fluid dynamics methods. Starting from the di scontinuity, a Riemann problem in the Godunov method is solved for the flux evaluation across the cell interface in a finite volume scheme. With the increasing of Mach number in the CFD simulations, the adaptation of the Riemann solver seems introduce intrinsically a mechanism to develop instabilities in strong shock regions. Theoretically, the Riemann solution of the Euler equations are based on the equilibrium assumption, which may not be valid in the non-equilibrium shock layer. In order to clarify the flow physics from a discontinuity, the unsteady flow behavior of one-dimensional contact and shock wave is studied on a time scale of (0~10000) times of the particle collision time. In the study of the non-equilibrium flow behavior from a discontinuity, the collision-less Boltzmann equation is first used for the time scale within one particle collision time, then the direct simulation Monte Carlo (DSMC) method will be adapted to get the further evolution solution. The transition from the free particle transport to the dissipative Navier-Stokes (NS) solutions are obtained as an increasing of time. The exact Riemann solution becomes a limiting solution with infinite number of particle collisions. For the high Mach number flow simulations, the points in the shock transition region, even though the region is enlarged numerically to the mesh size, should be considered as the points inside a highly non-equilibrium shock layer.

The inconsistency between the time-reversible Liouville equation and time-irreversible Boltzmann equation has been pointed out long ago by Loschmidt. To avoid Loschmidts objection, here we propose a new dynamical system to model the motion of atoms o f gas, with their interactions triggered by a random point process. Despite being random, this model can approximate the collision dynamics of rigid spheres via adjustable parameters. We compute the exact statistical steady state of the system, and determine the form of its marginal distributions for a large number of spheres. We find that the Kullback-Leibler entropy (a generalization of the conventional Boltzmann entropy) of the full system of random gas spheres is a nonincreasing function of time. Unlike the conventional hard sphere model, the proposed random gas model results in a variant of the Enskog equation, which is known to be a more accurate model of dense gas than the Boltzmann equation. We examine the hydrodynamic limit of the derived Enskog equation for spheres of constant mass density, and find that the corresponding Enskog-Euler and Enskog-Navier-Stokes equations acquire additional effects in both the advective and viscous terms. In the dilute gas approximation, the Enskog equation simplifies to the Boltzmann equation, while the Enskog-Euler and Enskog-Navier-Stokes equations become the conventional Euler and Navier-Stokes equations.
The purpose of the present paper is to derive a partial differential equation (PDE) for the single-time single-point probability density function (PDF) of the velocity field of a turbulent flow. The PDF PDE is a highly non-linear parabolic-transport equation, which depends on two conditional statistical numerics of important physical significance. The PDF PDE is a general form of the classical Reynolds mean flow equation, and is a precise formulation of the PDF transport equation. The PDF PDE provides us with a new method for modelling turbulence. An explicit example is constructed, though the example is seemingly artificial, but it demonstrates the PDF method based on the new PDF PDE.
