Lists citations with abstracts for aerospace related reports obtained from world wide sources and announces documents that have recently been entered into the NASA Scientific and Technical Information Database.
Contains papers from a February 1996 seminar on magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) flows and turbulence, covering contemporary trends in both experimental and theoretical research and presenting recent results in many areas. Subjects include transition, turbulence, MHD and atmospheric turbulence, astrophysics, experimental methods and data analysis, energy conversion, solidification, incompressible flow, and plasma MHD. Some topics are structure of the velocity field of a turbulent line-fire plume, helical instability of magnetohydrodynamic turbulence, energy sources of planetary magnetic fields, and characterization of microfabricated shear stress sensors.
