We present a homogenization method to treat the problem of the reflection of waves at the free boundary of an elastic body, the edge being structured periodically at the subwavelength scale. The problem is considered for shear waves and the wave equation in the time domain is considered. In the homogenized problem, a boundary condition at an equivalent flat edge is obtained, which links the normal stress to its derivatives, instead of the usual traction free condition. The problem of the position of the equivalent flat boundary with respect to the real roughnesses is addressed and this is done considering the equation of energy conservation in the homogenized problem and considering the accuracy of the homogenized solution when compared to the real one.

Effective Boundary Conditions

We consider the stationary equations of a general viscous fluid in an infinite (periodic) slab supplemented with Navier's boundary condition with a friction term on the upper part of the boundary. In addition, we assume that the upper part of the boundary is described by a graph of a function φε, where φε oscillates in a specific direction with amplitude proportional to ε. We identify the limit problem when ε → 0, in particular, the effective boundary conditions.

Abstract An effective boundary condition is derived for the top of the troposphere, based on a wave radiation condition at the tropopause. This boundary condition, which can be formulated as a pseudodifferential equation, leads to new vertical dissipative modes. These modes can be computed explicitly in the classical setup of a hydrostatic, nonrotating atmosphere with a piecewise constant Brunt–Väisälä frequency. In the limit of an infinitely strongly stratified stratosphere, these modes lose their dissipative nature and become the regular baroclinic tropospheric modes under the rigid-lid approximation. For realistic values of the stratification, the decay time scales of the first few modes for mesoscale disturbances range from an hour to a week, suggesting that the time scale for some atmospheric phenomena may be set up by the rate of energy loss through upward-propagating waves.

The Neumann Problem

The problem of replacing Dirichlet or Neumann conditions on a stochastically embossed surface by approximate effective conditions on a smooth surface is studied for potential fields satisfying the Laplace equation. A combination of ensemble averaging and multiple-scattering techniques is used. It is shown that for the Dirichlet case the effective boundary condition becomes mixed and establishes a relation between the averaged field and its normal derivative. For the Neumann problem the normal derivative on the smooth surface equals a suitable combination of first- and second-order derivatives tangent to the surface. Explicit results are given for small boss concentration and illustrated with the examples of spheroidal and spherical bosses. For the Dirichlet case with hemispherical bosses, direct numerical-simulation results are presented up to area coverages of 75%. An application of the results to the calculation of the added mass of a rough sphere in potential flow, of the capacitance of a rough spherical conductor, and of the transmission and reflection of long water waves at a smooth-rough bottom transition aids in their physical interpretation.

Gap Width

A theory describing two-phase displacement in the gap between closely spaced planes is developed. The main assumptions of the theory are that the displaced fluid wets the walls, and that the capillary number Ca and the ratio of gap width to transverse characteristic length ε are both small. Relatively mild restrictions apply to the ratio M of viscosities of displacing to displaced fluids; in particular the theory holds for M = o(Ca−1/3). We formulate the theory as a double asymptotic expansion in the small parameters ε and Ca1/3. The expansion in ε is uniform while that in Ca1/3 is not, necessitating the use of matched asymptotic expansions. The previous work of Bretherton (1961) is clarified and extended, and both the form and the constants in the effective boundary condition of Chouke, van Meurs & van der Poel (1959) and of Saffman & Taylor (1958) are determined.

The effects of slip boundary condition on peristaltic transport of incompressible Newtonian viscous fluid in an asymmetric channel is investigated, under the conditions of low Reynolds number and long wavelength. The pumping characteristics, trapping and reflux limits are studied for different values of the dimensionless slip parameterβ.
