Inverse Boundary Value Problem for the Magnetohydrodynamics Equations by Lianhua He, Zhong Tan

“…In this paper, we consider the stationary magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) equations in a bounded domain of ℝd d=2,3 with viscosity and magnetic diffusing. By the linearization technique, we prove that the uniqueness of viscosity function and magnetic diffusing function in the MHD equations is determined from the knowledge of the Cauchy data measured on the boundary.…”

Viscous damping of gravity waves over a permeable bed by K. K. Puri

“…The damping of gravity waves over the surface of a layer of viscous fluid which overlies a porous bed saturated with the same fluid is studied. It is shown that viscosity may not be the dominant influence in the damping mechanism; the damping effects due to percolation in the fixed bed may be of the same or even higher order than those due to viscosity.…”
