Korteweg–de Vries solitons on electrified liquid jets
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The propagation of axisymmetric waves on the surface of a liquid jet under the action of a radial electric field is considered. The jet is assumed to be inviscid and perfectly conducting, and a field is set up by placing the jet concentrically inside a perfectly cylindrical tube whose wall is maintained at a constant potential. A nontrivial interaction arises between the hydrodynamics and the electric field in the annulus, resulting in the formation of electrocapillary waves. The main objective of the present study is to describe nonlinear aspects of such axisymmetric waves in the weakly nonlinear regime, which is valid for long waves relative to the undisturbed jet radius. This is found to be possible if two conditions hold: the outer electrode radius is not too small, and the applied electric field is sufficiently strong. Under these conditions long waves are shown to be dispersive and a weakly nonlinear theory can be developed to describe the evolution of the disturbances. The canonical system that arises is the Kortweg-de Vries equation with coefficients that vary as the electric field and the electrode radius are varied. Interestingly, the coefficient of the highest-order third derivative term does not change sign and remains strictly positive, whereas the coefficient α of the nonlinear term can change sign for certain values of the parameters. This finding implies that solitary electrocapillary waves are possible; there are waves of elevation for α>0 and of depression for α<0. Regions in parameter space are identified where such waves are found.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
