On How Zonal Fields Suppress Reversed Shear Alfvén Eigenmode in Tokamak Plasmas

Ruirui Ma, Pengfei Liu, Liu Chen +2

Employing both nonlinear gyrokinetic simulations and theoretical analyses, we have discovered the novel result that, with energetic particle dynamics kept linear, the nonlinear sup…

Global regularity for a family of 3D models of the axisymmetric Navier-Stokes equations

Thomas Y Hou, Pengfei Liu, Fei Wang

We consider a family of 3D models for the axi-symmetric incompressible Navier-Stokes equations. The models are derived by changing the strength of the convection terms in the axisy…

Self-similar Singularity of a 1D Model for the 3D Axisymmetric Euler Equations

Thomas Y. Hou, Pengfei Liu

We investigate the self-similar singularity of a 1D model for the 3D axisymmetric Euler equations, which is motivated by a particular singularity formation scenario observed in num…
