abstract The time-dependent solution for a multipolar source in a structure consisting of a homogeneous layer over a homogeneous half-space is obtained as a sum of generalized rays. Numerical seismograms are calculated for a horizontal strikeslip and a horizontal dip-slip for a point-source, a finite line-source, and a finite two-dimensional source in the form of a rectangle. For comparison, the displacements in a homogeneous space and half-space are also calculated. The seismograms for finite sources are similar to those for a point-source but show less conspicuous phases, the arriving pulses being wider and less sharp.

Several types of two-dimensional solutions for the equations of magnetohydrodynamics are described. For all these solutions the magnetic field contains at least one hyperbolic neutral point. Two new magnetostatic equilibria are introduced for the ideally conducting case. The magnetic field associated with one of these is used to construct an exact time-dependent solution of the MilD equations where the fluid is necessarily at rest. In the case where the field lines are hyperbolae, it is demonstrated that retention of the energy equation (ordinarily decoupled for incompressible flows) implies that the flow beginning at rest, remains at trest

Ideas related to the study of time-dependence in two dimensional Liouville string theory using the c=1 matrix model are reviewed. Following an introduction to Liouville string theory, the matrix model and the relationship between the two, an example of an exact quantum mechanical time-dependent solution is given. There is a brief discussion of the holographic issues complicating the construction of the exact spacetime interpretation of such solutions. An attempt is made to include sufficient background material to make the presentation self-contained and accessible to a non-expert.

Abstract. Application of the Brown-Samelson theorem, which shows that particle motion is integrable in a class of vorticity-conserving, two-dimensional incompressible flows, is extended here to a class of explicit time dependent dynamically balanced flows in multilayered systems. Particle motion for nonsteady two-dimensional flows with discontinuities in the vorticity or potential vorticity fields (modon solutions) is shown to be integrable. An example of a two-layer modon solution constrained by observations of a Gulf Stream ring system is discussed.

In this paper experimental measurements of the time-dependent velocity and density perturbations upstream of obstacles towed through linearly stratified fluid are presented. Attention is concentrated on two-dimensional obstacles which generate turbulent separated wakes at Froude numbers, based on velocity and body height, of less than 0.5. The form of the upstream columnar modes is shown to be largely that of first-order unattenuating disturbances, which have little resemblance to the perturbations described by small-obstacle-height theories. For two-dimensional obstacles the disturbances are similar to those found by Wei, Kao & Pao (1975) and it is shown that provided a suitable obstacle drag coefficient is specified, the lowest-order modes (at least) are quantitatively consistent with the results of the Oseen inviscid model.Discussion of some results of similar measurements upstream of three-dimensional obstacles, the importance of towing tank endwalls and the relevance of the Foster & Saffman (1970) theory for the limit of zero Froude number is also included.
