Assessing Turbulence Strength via Lyaponuv Exponents
Mayer Humi
In this paper we study the link between `turbulence strength' in a flow and the leading Lyaponuv exponent that characterize it. To this end we use two approaches. The first, analyt…
Fractional Darboux Transformations
Mayer Humi
In this paper we utilize the covariance of Ricatti equation with respect to linear fractional transformations to define classes of conformally equivalent second order differential…
Fuel-Optimal Rendezvous in a Central Force Field with Linear Drag
Mayer Humi, Thomas Carter
In this paper we consider the fuel-optimal rendezvous between a satellite and a spacecraft in a central force field with a drag force that is linear in the velocity. In this genera…
The Case for 2-D Turbulence in Antarctic Data
Mayer Humi
In this paper we examine the data that was collected at Haley Station in Antarctica on June 22, 1987. Using a test devised by Dewan we interpret the flow as one which represents tw…
