The response of a nearly supercritical pure fluid confined in a slablike container to a slowly
varying temperature disturbance at the boundary is studied. The matched asymptotic …

In this paper, we generalize the concept of low-Mach-number approximation to multi-phase
flows and apply it to the two-phase flow model of Papalexandris (J. Fluid Mech., vol. 517 …

We study the effect of a rigid boundary on the propagation of thermodynamic disturbances in
a gas under non-continuum conditions. We consider a semi-infinite setup confined by an …

We study the propagation and wall scattering of two-dimensional thermodynamic
disturbances in a gas at noncontinuum conditions. Initial system perturbations are modeled …

The response of a solid-gas solidification interface to uneven time dependent heat sources
in the compressible mother phase is studied. The low Mach number 1-D compressible …

ABSTRACT In this Doctoral Thesis we are concerned with the theoretical and numerical
analysis of hydrostatics and low-Mach number flows of fluid saturated granular materials. In …
