AbstractThe present work investigates the influence of bubble clustering on the propagation of shock waves in bubbly liquids. A continuum model is developed to describe the macroscopic response of a bubbly liquid with a cluster structure, using a two-step homogenization technique. The proposed methodology allows us to simulate shock wave propagation over long distances with a small computation time and to study the effect of bubble clustering on the shock structure. It is shown that the typical length of the shock profile is related to the global response of the clusters instead of the single-bubble dynamics, as in homogeneous bubbly flows. The accuracy of the proposed modelling is assessed through comparisons with axisymmetric simulations, in which clusters are directly specified, with given positions and sizes, and with experimental data.

Abstract We consider the maximal regularity problem for a PDE of linear acoustics, named the Van Wijngaarden–Eringen equation, that models the propagation of linear acoustic waves in isothermal bubbly liquids, wherein the bubbles are of uniform radius. If the dimensionless bubble radius is greater than one, we prove that the inhomogeneous version of the Van Wijngaarden–Eringen equation, in a cylindrical domain, admits maximal regularity in Lebesgue spaces. Our methods are based on the theory of operator-valued Fourier multipliers.

Abstract. Sudden impulses (SI) in the tail lobe magnetic field associated with solar wind pressure enhancements are investigated using measurements from Cluster. The magnetic field components during the SIs change in a manner consistent with the assumption that an antisunward moving lateral pressure enhancement compresses the magnetotail axisymmetrically. We found that the maximum variance SI unit vectors were nearly aligned with the associated interplanetary shock normals. For two of the tail lobe SI events during which Cluster was located close to the tail boundary, Cluster observed the inward moving magnetopause. During both events, the spacecraft location changed from the lobe to the magnetospheric boundary layer. During the event on 6 November 2001 the magnetopause was compressed past Cluster. We applied the 2-D Cartesian model developed by collier98 in which a vacuum uniform tail lobe magnetic field is compressed by a step-like pressure increase. The model underestimates the compression of the magnetic field, but it fits the magnetic field maximum variance component well. For events for which we could determine the shock normal orientation, the differences between the observed and calculated shock propagation times from the location of WIND/Geotail to the location of Cluster were small. The propagation speeds of the SIs between the Cluster spacecraft were comparable to the solar wind speed. Our results suggest that the observed tail lobe SIs are due to lateral increases in solar wind dynamic pressure outside the magnetotail boundary.
