Conservative Flux

Abstract. New integral, finite-volume forms of the Saint-Venant equations for one-dimensional (1-D) open-channel flow are derived. The new equations are in the flux-gradient conservation form and transfer portions of both the hydrostatic pressure force and the gravitational force from the source term to the conservative flux term. This approach prevents irregular channel topography from creating an inherently non-smooth source term for momentum. The derivation introduces an analytical approximation of the free surface across a finite-volume element (e.g., linear, parabolic) with a weighting function for quadrature with bottom topography. This new free-surface/topography approach provides a single term that approximates the integrated piezometric pressure over a control volume that can be split between the source and the conservative flux terms without introducing new variables within the discretization. The resulting conservative finite-volume equations are written entirely in terms of flow rates, cross-sectional areas, and water surface elevations – without using the bottom slope (S0). The new Saint-Venant equation form is (1) inherently conservative, as compared to non-conservative finite-difference forms, and (2) inherently well-balanced for irregular topography, as compared to conservative finite-volume forms using the Cunge–Liggett approach that rely on two integrations of topography. It is likely that this new equation form will be more tractable for large-scale simulations of river networks and urban drainage systems with highly variable topography as it ensures the inhomogeneous source term of the momentum conservation equation is Lipschitz smooth as long as the solution variables are smooth.

Solids, liquids, and gases are the great states of matter; a solid has a shape and a volume, a liquid has a volume but no shape, and a gas has neither shape nor volume. ‘Forms of matter’ explains how these different states arise from a competition between opposites: thermal motion driving particles apart and the attractive forces between atoms pulling them together, repulsion and attraction. The ‘glue’ that holds electrons to atoms, brings atoms together to form molecules, and draws molecules together to make solids and liquids, is electricity. Chemical bonds, crystals, intermediate states, and plasma—the fourth state of matter—are discussed.

AbstractLet (X, g) be a complete noncompact Kähler manifold, of dimension n ≥ 2, with positive Ricci curvature and of standard type (see the definition below). N. Mok proved that X can be compactified, i.e., X is biholomorphic to a quasi-projective variety. The aim of this paper is to prove that the L2 holomorphic sections of the line bundle K−qXand the volume form of the metric g have no essential singularities near the divisor at infinity. As a consequence we obtain a comparison between the volume forms of the Kähler metric g and of the Fubini-Study metric induced on X. In the case of dimC X = 2, we establish a relation between the number of components of the divisor D and the dimension of the.
