Dimensional Wave

In this paper we examine the stability of a two-dimensional wake profile of the form u(y) = U∞(1 – r e-sy2) with respect to a pulsed disturbance at a point in the fluid. The disturbed flow forms an expanding wave packet which is convected downstream. Far downstream, where asymptotic expansions are valid, the motion at any point in the wave packet is described by a particular three-dimensional wave having complex wave-numbers. In the special case of very unstable flows, where viscosity does not have a significant influence, it is possible to evaluate the three-dimensional eigenvalues in terms of two-dimensional ones using the inviscid form of Squire's transformation. In this way each point in the physical plane can be linked to a particular two-dimensional wave growing in both space and time by simple algebraic expressions which are independent of the mean flow velocity profile. Computed eigenvalues for the wake profile are used in these relations to find the behaviour of the wave packet in the physical plane.

The two-dimensional wave diffraction problem, acoustic or electromagnetic, in which a pulse of step-function time dependence is diffracted by a resistive half-plane is solved by assuming dynamic similarity in the solution.

Abstract Propagation of a two-dimensional spatio-temporal electromagnetic beam wave is analysed. In parabolic (paraxial) approximation the exact analytical results for a spatio-temporal Gaussian impulse can be obtained. For solution of the full wave equation the numerical simulation has to be used. The various facets of this simulation are discussed here.

Locomotion of adult Nippostrongylus brasiliensis has been studied in saline, in 0.6% agar, in sodium alginate of different viscosities and amongst sand grains in these media. In saline the nematode formed two-dimensional waves but there was little forward progression. Amongst sand grains in saline the nematode moved forwards by thrusting against sand grains, but thigmokinetic behaviour later resulted in quiescence. In 0.6% agar and in alginates of weak viscosity the nematode produced two-dimensional waves and sometimes a three-dimensional helical wave which resulted in forward movement. The formation of three-dimensional waves and the distance travelled increased with increasing viscosity up to 4% sodium alginate and also amongst sand gains in these media. In 8% sodium alginate the nematode became coiled like a spring but remained almost stationary. The three-dimensional wave is formed with torsion and obtains thrust from the viscous medium. In the intestine of the host thrust will be obtained from the mucus and villi of the intestinal mucosa. The ability of this nematode to move by two-and three-dimensional undulatory propulsion is probably related to its complex ridged cuticle. Attention is drawn to the role that increased viscosity of mucus may play in entrapping nematodes during their immune rejection.
