Four-Body Bound State Calculations in Three-Dimensional Approach

The four-body bound state with two-body interactions is formulated in Three-Dimensional approach, a recently developed momentum space representation which greatly simplifies the numerical calculations of few-body systems without performing the partial wave decomposition. The obtained three-dimensional Faddeev-Yakubovsky integral equations are solved with two-body potentials. Results for four-body binding energies are in good agreement with achievements of the other methods.Comment: 29 pages, 2 eps figures, 8 tables, REVTeX

Orthogonal, solenoidal, three-dimensional vector fields for no-slip boundary conditions

Viscous fluid dynamical calculations require no-slip boundary conditions. Numerical calculations of turbulence, as well as theoretical turbulence closure techniques, often depend upon a spectral decomposition of the flow fields. However, such calculations have been limited to two-dimensional situations. Here we present a method that yields orthogonal decompositions of incompressible, three-dimensional flow fields and apply it to periodic cylindrical and spherical no-slip boundaries.Comment: 16 pages, 2 three-part figure

Recent experiences with three-dimensional transonic potential flow calculations

Some recent experiences with computer programs capable of solving finitie-difference approximations to the full potential equation for the transonic flow past three dimensional swept wings and simple wing-fuselage combinations are discussed. The programs used are a nonconservative program for swept wings, a quasi-conservative finite-volume program capable of treating swept wings mounted on fuselages of slowly varying circular cross section, and a fully conservative finite volume scheme capable of treating swept wings and wing-cylinder combinations. The present capabilities of these codes are reviewed. The relative merits of the conservative and nonconservative formulations are discussed, and the results of calculations including corrections for the boundary-layer displacement effect are presented

Three-dimensional compressible stability-transition calculations using the spatial theory

The e(exp n)-method is employed with the spatial amplification theory to compute the onset of transition on a swept wing tested in transonic cryogenic flow conditions. Two separate eigenvalue formulations are used. One uses the saddle-point method and the other assumes that the amplification vector is normal to the leading edge. Comparisons of calculated results with experimental data show that both formulations give similar results and indicate that the wall temperature has a rather strong effect on the value of the n factor

Validation of a three-dimensional viscous analysis of axisymmetric supersonic inlet flow fields

A three-dimensional viscous marching analysis for supersonic inlets was developed. To verify this analysis several benchmark axisymmetric test configurations were studied and are compared to experimental data. Detailed two-dimensional results for shock-boundary layer interactions are presented for flows with and without boundary layer bleed. Three dimensional calculations of a cone at angle of attack and a full inlet at attack are also discussed and evaluated. Results of the calculations demonstrate the code's ability to predict complex flow fields and establish guidelines for future calculations using similar codes

Nuclear radiation environment analysis for thermoelectric outer planet spacecraft

Neutron and gamma ray transport calculations were performed using Monte Carlo methods and a three-dimensional geometric model of the spacecraft. The results are compared with similar calculations performed for an earlier design

Bound State Calculations of the Three-Dimensional Yakubovsky Equations with the inclusion of Three-Body Forces

The four-body Yakubovsky equations in a Three-Dimensional approach with the inclusion of the three-body forces is proposed. The four-body bound state with two- and three-body interactions is formulated in Three-Dimensional approach for identical particles as function of vector Jacobi momenta, specifically the magnitudes of the momenta and the angles between them. The modified three dimensional Yakubovsky integral equations is successfully solved with the scalar two-meson exchange three-body force where the Malfliet-Tjon-type two-body force is implemented. The three-body force effects on the energy eigenvalue and the four-body wave function, as well as accuracy of our numerical calculations are presented.The four-body Yakubovsky equations in a Three-Dimensional approach with the inclusion of the three-body forces is proposed.
