A canonical Hamiltonian formulation of the Navier-Stokes problem
John W. Sanders, Adam C. DeVoria, Nathan J. Washuta +3
This paper presents a novel Hamiltonian formulation of the isotropic Navier-Stokes problem based on a minimum-action principle derived from the principle of least squares. This for…

Air Entrainment and Surface Fluctuations in a Turbulent Ship Hull Boundary Layer
Naeem Masnadi, Martin A. Erinin, Nathan Washuta +3
The air entrainment due to the turbulence in a free surface boundary layer shear flow created by a horizontally moving vertical surface-piercing wall is studied through experiments…

The Turbulent Boundary Layer on a Horizontally Moving, Partially Submerged, Surface-Piercing Vertical Wall
Nathan Washuta, Naeem Masnadi, James H. Duncan
The complex interactions between turbulence and the free surface, including air entrainment processes, in boundary layer shear flows created by vertical surface-piercing plates are…
