Finite-Strength Sensitivity and Euler--UTSD Correspondence for Guderley--Mach Reflection

Justin Kin Jun Hew

Weak shock reflection at nearly glancing incidence is governed, after the transonic weak-shock scaling, by a self-similar unsteady transonic small-disturbance (UTSD) free-boundary…

Distinguished Scaling and UTSD Structure in Weak Shock Reflection at Nearly Glancing Incidence

Justin Kin Jun Hew

We study weak shock reflection from a rigid wall in the joint limit of weak shock strength and nearly glancing incidence. In the distinguished scaling $\Mach=1+λα^2$, the inner ref…

Conservation of magnetic-helicity fluctuations due to spatial decorrelation of fluxes in decaying MHD turbulence

Justin Kin Jun Hew, David N. Hosking, Christoph Federrath +2

Hosking & Schekochihin (2021, Phys. Rev. X 11, 041005) have proposed that statistically isotropic decaying MHD turbulence without net magnetic helicity conserves the mean square fl…

Computation of Magnetohydrodynamic Equilibria with Voigt Regularization

Yi-Min Huang, Justin Kin Jun Hew, Andrew Brown +1

This work presents the first numerical investigation of using Voigt regularization as a method for obtaining magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) equilibria without the assumption of nested m…

Taking control of compressible modes: bulk viscosity and the turbulent dynamo

James R. Beattie, Christoph Federrath, Neco Kriel +2

Many polyatomic astrophysical plasmas are compressible and out of chemical and thermal equilibrium, introducing a bulk viscosity into the plasma via the internal degrees of freedom…

Fundamental MHD scales -- II: the kinematic phase of the supersonic small-scale dynamo

Neco Kriel, James R. Beattie, Christoph Federrath +2

Many astrophysical small-scale dynamos (SSDs) amplify weak magnetic fields via highly compressible, supersonic turbulence, but established SSD theories have overlooked these compre…

Strongly stable dual-pairing summation by parts finite difference schemes for the vector invariant nonlinear shallow water equations -- I: Numerical scheme and validation on the plane

Justin Kin Jun Hew, Kenneth Duru, Stephen Roberts +2

We present an energy/entropy stable and high order accurate finite difference (FD) method for solving the nonlinear (rotating) shallow water equations (SWEs) in vector invariant fo…

Spatiotemporal dynamics of transonic shock-wave/turbulent-boundary-layer interactions in an overexpanded planar nozzle

Justin Kin Jun Hew, Emanuele Martelli, Mahdi Davoodianidalik +3

We perform a combined numerical and experimental study to investigate the transonic shock-wave/turbulent-boundary-layer interactions (STBLI) in a shock-induced separated subscale p…

Lagrangian statistics of a shock-driven turbulent dynamo in decaying turbulence

Justin Kin Jun Hew, Christoph Federrath

Small-scale fluctuating magnetic fields of order G are observed in supernova shocks and galaxy clusters, where its amplification is likely caused by the Biermann battery mechani…

Analytical and Numerical Studies of the Non-uniformity induced Type II Asymmetric Cap Shock Mach Reflection in Over-expanded Supersonic Jets

Justin Kin Jun Hew, Rod W. Boswell, Christoph Federrath +2

A combined analytical and numerical study is conducted to investigate the asymmetric cap-shock non-uniform Mach Reflection (csMR) phenomenon outside of an over-expanded supersonic…

Centreline shock reflection phenomena for Supersonic Internal Flows in the non-Rankine-Hugoniot zone: Overexpanded Supersonic Microjets

Justin Kin Jun Hew, Hideaki Ogawa, Rod W. Boswell

The viscous and rarefaction effects on centreline shock reflection occurring in an overexpanded axisymmetric microjet have been investigated numerically by means of a fully coupled…
