The electrical conductivity in the medium ahead of the shock is assumed to be negligible, which becomes infinitely large after passage of the shock . The ambient medium is considered to have variable axial velocity component in addition to the variable azimuthal velocity. In order to obtain the similarity solutions, the initial density of the medium is assumed to be constant and the initial angular velocity to be obeying a power law and to be decreasing as the distance from the axis increases . Effects of an increase in the value of the parameter of non-idealness of the gas, in the value of radiation parameter and in the value of the index for variation of azimuthal velocity of the ambient medium ( or in the value of the index for variation of the ambient magnetic field ) on the shock propagation are investigated. It is observed that the non-idealness of the gas or radiation heat-flux has decaying effect on the shock wave.","PeriodicalId":372283,"journal":{"name":"Universal Journal of Applied Mathematics","volume":"22 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128818675","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We use the parameter-expanding method and seek direct eigenfunctions expansion technique to obtain analytical solution of the model. The results are presented graphically and discussed.

The vertical heat fluxes on the surface become horizontally inhomogeneous, that can exert a back profound effect on the convection and dynamics of clouds, in particular, resulting in their horizontal transference (a cloud \"runs away from its own shadow\"). This paper is dedicated to the corresponding generalization of the classical Rayleigh problem on the convective instability of horizontal layer of a fluid. This generalization has as its object to describe the effect mentioned above – the influence of partial surface shielding on convection. The results show that the given relatively small modification of the Rayleigh problem, taking into account the possibility of the horizontally shifted thermal response to the vertical motions, leads to qualitatively new results. There appears a new, easily realizable type of instability, for which the strengthening of disturbances moving horizontally is typical.","PeriodicalId":372283,"journal":{"name":"Universal Journal of Applied Mathematics","volume":"460 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127530905","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
