Constant-density electrically conducting fluid is confined to a rapidly rotating spherical shell and is permeated by an axisymmetric magnetic field. Slow steady non-axisymmetric motion is driven by a prescribed non-axisymmetric body force; both rigid and stress-free boundary conditions are considered. Linear solutions of the governing magnetohydrodynamic equations are derived in the small Ekman number E limit analytically for values of the Elsasser number Λ less than order unity and they are compared with new numerical results. The analytic study focuses on the nature of the various shear layers on the equatorial tangent cylinder attached to the inner sphere. Though the ageostrophic layers correspond to those previously isolated by Kleeorin et al. (1997) for axisymmetric flows, the quasi-geostrophic layers have a new structure resulting from the asymmetry of the motion.In the absence of magnetic field, the inviscid limit exhibits a strong shear singularity on the tangent cylinder only removeable by the addition of viscous forces. With the inclusion of magnetic field, large viscous forces remain whose strength [Zscr ] was measured indirectly by Hollerbach (1994b). For magnetic fields with dipole parity, cf. Kleeorin et al. (1997), [Zscr ] increases throughout the range Λ [Lt ] 1; whereas, for quadrupole parity, cf. Hollerbach (1994b), [Zscr ] only increases for Λ [Lt ] E1/5.The essential difference between the dipole and quadrupole fields is the magnitude of their radial components in the neighbourhood of the equator of the inner sphere. Its finite value for the quadrupole parity causes the internal shear layer – the Hartmann–Stewartson layer stump – to collapse and merge with the equatorial Ekman layer when Λ = O(E1/5). Subsequently the layer becomes an equatorial Hartmann layer, which thins and spreads polewards about the inner sphere surface as Λ increases over the range E1/5 [Lt ] Λ [Lt ] 1. Its structure for the stress-free boundary conditions employed in Hollerbach's (1994b) model is determined through matching with a new magnetogeostrophic solution and the results show that the viscous shear measured by [Zscr ] decreases with increasing Λ. Since [Zscr ] depends sensitively on the detailed boundary layer structure, it provides a sharp diagnostic of new numerical results for Hollerbach's model; the realized [Zscr ]-values compare favourably with the asymptotic theory presented.

In this paper, we consider the motion of incompressible magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) with resistivity in a domain bounded by a free surface. An electromagnetic field generated by some currents in an external domain keeps an MHD flow in a bounded domain. On the free surface, free boundary conditions for MHD flow and transmission conditions for electromagnetic fields are imposed. We proved the local well-posedness in the general setting of domains from a mathematical point of view. The solutions are obtained in an anisotropic space Hp1((0,T),Hq1)∩Lp((0,T),Hq3) for the velocity field and in an anisotropic space Hp1((0,T),Lq)∩Lp((0,T),Hq2) for the magnetic fields with 2<p<∞, N<q<∞ and 2/p+N/q<1. To prove our main result, we used the Lp-Lq maximal regularity theorem for the Stokes equations with free boundary conditions and for the magnetic field equations with transmission conditions, which have been obtained by Frolova and the second author.

Vibration based technique have so far been focused on the identification of structural damage. However, not many studies have been conducted on the corrosion identification on pipes. The objective of this paper is to identify corrosion on pipes from vibration measurements. A hollow pipe, 500 mm in length with 63.5 mm in diameter was subjected to impact loading using an impact hammer to identify the natural frequency of the tube in two conditions i) without any corrosion and ii) with an induced localized 40 mm by 40 mm corrosion at the middle of the pipe. The shift of natural frequencies of the structures under free boundary conditions was examined for each node of excitation. The results showed that there is a shift in natural frequency of the pipe, between 3 and 4 Hz near to the corrosion area. It can suggested that that the impact vibration is capable of identifying of localized corrosion on a hollow tube.
