Title: Hi everyone - greetings from desA Post by: desA on October 26, 2006, 02:33:28 PM Hi everyone,
My name is Des Aubery (moniker desA). I returned to do academic study in mid-life, after many years in the Engineering Consulting field. I'm busy reading towards a PhD in Mechanical Engineering - specialty in the Navier-Stokes equations for incompressible fluid flows. Most of my current research involves 24/7 simulation of Finite Element models of fluids running within confined domains. My interest in fractals is to try & quantify & describe the large-scale group-like relationships I have observed during my simulations. Thanks so much for operating a board like this. I found your link in a Google discussion group (I think Physics). Regards, desA Title: Re: Hi everyone - greetings from desA Post by: heneganj on October 26, 2006, 04:22:06 PM Welcome to the forums Des!
Take a look at this forum - http://www.fractalforums.com/index.php?topic=207.0 (http://www.fractalforums.com/index.php?topic=207.0) there's a PDF you might find useful on vortex modelling.

Have you ever engaged in any wild speculation such as applications of Navier-Stokes equations for incompressible fluid flows to quantum mechanics, and EM phenomena in general. Some people have come up with revised interpretations of Schrodinger's equation for atoms based on a Navier-Stokes approach. It is very controversial, but interesting. If you would like to see some motivation for a neo-classical approach to atomic scale physics, please see www.amherst.edu/~rloldershaw . I am always ready to discuss the issues raised there. Again, welcome to the forum, Rob Title: Re: Hi everyone - greetings from desA Post by: desA on October 27, 2006, 05:56:54 AM Hello desA, Have you ever engaged in any wild speculation such as applications of Navier-Stokes equations for incompressible fluid flows to quantum mechanics, and EM phenomena in general.

Again, welcome to the forum, Rob Ahah, at last someone I can discuss this level of detail with... I'll come over & visit. Thanks so much for your link. A sneak preview - the Navier-Stokes equations are naturally quasi-linear parabolic wave equations. In tensor form they are a dead give-away. I've got all types of interesting vector plots running at the moment. The acceleration field is rather revealing. desA Title: Re: Hi everyone - greetings from desA Post by: Nahee_Enterprises on October 27, 2006, 08:13:30 AM Hi everyone, My name is Des Aubery (moniker desA).
