Physical and mathematical analysis of a wind model

  • Published:
Il Nuovo Cimento C

Summary

We have carried out a mathematical and physical analysis of the instabilities present in a one-layer wind model. The single terms of the basic equation have been discussed, pointing out their influence on the accuracy of the solution and their relationship to the possible instabilities. Possible improvements of the model in different directions are indicated in the final discussion.

Riassunto

Si effettua un’analisi matematica e fisica delle instabilità presenti nel modello del vento ad uno strato. Si discutono i singoli termini dell’equazione di base, sottolineando la loro influenza sulla accuratezza della soluzione e la loro relazione con le instabilità possibili. Nella discussione finale si indicano possibili miglioramenti del modello in diverse direzioni.

Резюме

Проводится математический и физический анализ неустойчивостей, возникающих в одно-слойной модели ветра. Обсуждаются отдельные члены базисного уравнения. Отмечается влияние этих членов на точность решения и их связь с возможными неустойчивостями. Указываются возможные улучцения обсуждаемой модели в различных напавлениях.
