Initial flow field of stratified flow past an impulsively started sphere [pdf]Paper  abstract   bibtex   
Numerical simulations of a linearly stratified diffusive flow past an impulsively started sphere are described. The impulsive start is perpendicular to isophysical surfaces. The equations are transformed to generalized coordinates and then approximated by a finite difference scheme over a suitable grid which resolves both the diffusive and viscous boundary-layers. The results are compared with experimental evidence. © 2002 IMACS. Published by Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
