Verification and validation in highly viscous fluid simulation using a fully implicit sph method

Catastrophes involving mass movements has always been a great threat to civilizations. We propse to simplify the behavior of the mass movement material as a highly viscous fluid, possibly non-Newtonian. In this context, this study describes the application of two improvements in highly viscous fluid simulations using the smoothed particle hydrodynamics (SPH) method: an implicit time integration scheme to overcome the problem of impractically small time-step restriction, and the introduction of air ghost particles to fix problems regarding the free-surface treatment. The application of a fully implicit time integration method implies an adaptation of the wall boundary condition, which is also covered in this study. Furthermore, the proposed wall boundary condition allows for different slip conditions, which is usually difficult to adopt in SPH. To solve a persistent problem on the SPH method of unstable pressure distributions, we adopted the incompressible SPH [1] as a basis for the implementation of these improvements, which guarantees stable and accurate pressure distribution. We conducted non-Newtonian pipe flow simulations to verify the method and a variety of dam break and wave generated by underwater landslide simulations for validation. Finally, we demonstrate the potential of this method with the highly viscous vertical jet flow over a horizontal plate test, which features a complex viscous coiling behavior

Upper critical field and de Haas-van Alphen oscillations in KOs2_2O6_6 measured in a hybrid magnet

Magnetic torque measurements have been performed on a KOs$_2$O$_6$ single crystal in magnetic fields up to 35.3 T and at temperatures down to 0.6 K. The upper critical field is determined to be $\sim$30 T. De Haas-van Alphen oscillations are observed. A large mass enhancement of (1+$\lambda$) = $m^* / m_{band}$ = 7.6 is found. It is suggested that, for the large upper critical field to be reconciled with Pauli paramagnetic limiting, the observed mass enhancement must be of electron-phonon origin for the most part.Comment: 4 pages, 4 figures, published versio

Anisotropy in spatial order-disorder transformations and the vortex lattice symmetry transition in YNi2B2CYNi_2B_2C and LuNi2B2CLuNi_2B_2C

Explorations of the order-disorder transformation in vortex matter in single crystals of tetragonal structured (c/a $\sim$3) borocarbide superconductors, $YNi_2B_2C$ and $LuNi_2B_2C$, reveal that vortex arrays experience different effective pinning in different crystallographic directions. We surmise that correlation exists between the large anisotropy in effective pinning/disorder and the differences in the (local) symmetry transition from rhombohedral to (quasi) square vortex lattice(VL). For field along high symmetry directions, like, c-axis and ab-basal plane, the VL symmetry is close to square and the ordered state spans a large field interval. When the field is turned away from the c-axis towards ab-plane, at intermediate angles, the region of ordered state shrinks, in response to enhancement in effective pinning. At such intermediate angles the symmetry of the VL would be far from ideal triangular or square.Comment: 6 pages, 5 figures (Accepted in Euro Phys. Letts.
