The richtmyer-meshkov instability

M Brouillette - Annual Review of Fluid Mechanics, 2002 - annualreviews.org
The Richtmyer-Meshkov instability arises when a shock wave interacts with an interface
separating two different fluids. It combines compressible phenomena, such as shock …

Vortex paradigm for accelerated inhomogeneous flows: Visiometrics for the Rayleigh-Taylor and Richtmyer-Meshkov environments

NJ Zabusky - Annual review of fluid mechanics, 1999 - annualreviews.org
▪ Abstract We illustrate how cogent visiometrics can provide peak insights that lead to
pathways for discovery through computer simulation. This process includes visualizing …
