AbstractKorteweg-de Vries equations for slow body and torsional weakly nonlinear Alfvén waves in twisted magnetic flux tubes are derived. Slow body solitons appear as a narrowing of the tube in a low β plasma and widening of the tube, when β ≫ 1. Alfvén torsional solitons appear as a widening (β > 1) and narrowing (β < 1) of the tube, where there is a local increase of tube twisting. Two scenarios of nonlinear dissipation of strongly nonlinear waves in twisted flux tubes are proposed.

AbstractIn the present paper we study features and abilities of the combined TVD+SPH method relative to problems of numerical simulation of long waves runup on a shore within the shallow water theory. The results obtained by this method are compared to analytic solutions and to the data of laboratory experiments. Examples of successful application of the TVD+SPH method are presented for the case of study of runup processes for weakly nonlinear and strongly nonlinear waves, and also for

Weakly nonlinear descriptions of axisymmetric cnoidal and solitary waves in vortices recently have been shown to have strongly nonlinear counterparts. The linear stability of these strongly nonlinear waves to three-dimensional perturbations is studied, motivated by the problem of vortex breakdown in open flows. The basic axisymmetric flow varies both radially and axially, and the linear stability problem is therefore nonseparable. To regularize the generalization of a critical layer, viscosity is introduced in the perturbation problem. In the absence of the waves, the vortex flows are linearly stable. As the amplitude of a wave constituting the basic flow increases owing to variation in the level of swirl, stability is first lost to non-axisymmetric ‘bending’ modes. This instability occurs when the wave amplitude exceeds a critical value, provided that the Reynolds number is larger enough. The critical wave amplitudes for instability typically are large, but not large enough to create regions of closed streamlines. Examination of the most-amplified eigenvectors shows that the perturbations tend to be concentrated downstream of the maximum streamline displacement in the wave, in a position consistent with the observed three-dimensional perturbations in the interior of a bubble type of vortex breakdown.
