Similarity criteria and scales for crystals
Physical nature is discussed of the universal crystal linear nanoscale introduced previously by G.I. Barenblatt and P. Monteiro. Connection is demonstrated of this scale with the quantum uncertainty relation.

A mathematical model of gas outflow from gas-saturated ice and gas hydrates
This paper considers gas outflow from the agglomerate composed of gas-saturated ice, free gas, and gas hydrates. The agglomerate is considered to be a multicomponent continuous medium.

Universality of the linear nanoscale
Based on our analysis of factual material (27 various crystals), we have shown the universality of the linear scale composed of Planck’s constant, the density, and Young’s modulus by the dimensional method. Th...

On a boundary layer problem related to the gas flow in shales
The development of gas deposits in shales has become a significant energy resource. Despite the already active exploitation of such deposits, a mathematical model for gas flow in shales does not exist. Such a ...

The 1999 James Lighthill Memorial Paper: Scaling laws for turbulent wall-bounded shear flows at very large Reynolds numbers
Deep ideas of Sir James Lighthill concerning turbulent flows are discussed in the beginning. The scaling laws for large-Reynolds-number flows are presented in their historical development. The underlying hypot...

Turbulence: An Old Challenge and New Perspectives
Turbulence at very large Reynolds numbers (often called developed turbulence) is widely considered to be one of the happier provinces of the turbulence realm, as it is widely thought that two of its basic resu...

Intermediate asymptotics, scaling laws and renormalization group in continuum mechanics
Scaling laws and self-similar solutions are very popular concepts in modern continuum mechanics. In the present paper these concepts are analyzed both from the viewpoint of intermediate asymptotics, known in c...

Some General Aspects of Fracture Mechanics
Two basic concepts of fracture mechanics are considered in these lectures. The first is what is the fracture phenomenon from the mathematical viewpoint? It is shown that fracture is not a local, but global eve...

Instability and Turbulence
The instability in a shear flow together with the transition to a turbulent regime is considered taking besides the usual small-amplitude and long-scale disturbances also the small-scale and small-amplitude tu...

Evolution of a turbulent burst
A complete solution of the problem of symmetric turbulent burst decay in a quiescent fluid is obtained using the semiempirical theory of turbulence.

Nonequilibrium counterflow capillary impregnation
A model of capillary impregnation, taking account of disequilibrium of the phase permeabilities, is constructed on the basis of a general scheme of nonequilibrium two-phase filtration proposed in [3]; see also...

On the Structure of Wave Fronts in Nonlinear Dissipative Media
Wave fronts are well known to be the regions of space where the properties of motion vary sharply in a certain direction. This means that one of the components of the gradients of density, velocity, stress, etc.,...
