  1. 1. Multipole moments of axisymmetric spacetimes

    Author : Thomas Bäckdahl; Magnus Herberthson; Brian Edgar; Kjell Rosquist; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; multipole moments; axisymmetry; spacetimes; prescribed; solutions; static; stationary; Kerr; Weyl; Ernst; Theory of relativity; gravitation; Relativitetsteori; gravitation;

    Abstract : In this thesis we study multipole moments of axisymmetric spacetimes. Using the recursive definition of the multipole moments of Geroch and Hansen we develop a method for computing all multipole moments of a stationary axisymmetric spacetime without the use of a recursion. READ MORE

  2. 2. Multipole Moments of Stationary Spacetimes

    Author : Thomas Bäckdahl; Magnus Herberthson; Brien Nolan; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; multipole moments; stationary; static; relativistic; spacetime; convergence; specified; Mathematical physics; Matematisk fysik;

    Abstract : In this thesis we study the relativistic multipole moments for stationary asymptotically flat spacetimes as introduced by Geroch and Hansen. These multipole moments give an asymptotic description of the gravitational field in a coordinate independent way. READ MORE

  3. 3. On Multistage Analysis of Transonic Compressors: From Axisymmetric Throughflow Time-Marching to Unsteady Three-Dimensional Methods

    Author : Stephane Baralon; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; shock; time-marching; deterministic; average-passage; multistage; fan; axisymmetric; 3D; unsteady; transonic; viscous; body force; stress; singularity; perturbation; throughflow; mixing-plane; modelling; finite-volume;

    Abstract : A throughflow time-marching finite-volume solver, capable of computing viscous transonic multistage compressor flows with embedded shocks, is presented. The behavior of the blade model, based on the blade mean surface flow tangency condition, was investigated for transonic flows. READ MORE
