Abstract:
We consider the axisymmetric problem of the vertical separation impact of a circular disk that hermetically closes the bottom of a pool in the form of a layer. After the impact, the disk moves along the gravity vector (outside the layer) at a constant speed. In this case, it is assumed that the disc slides along the solid cylindrical walls like a piston. A feature of this problem is that after the impact, an attached cavity is formed and a new internal free boundary of the fluid appears. It is required to study the process of collapse of the cavity at low velocities of the disk, which correspond to small Froude numbers. In the leading asymptotic approximation, a problem with one-sided constraints is formulated, on the basis of which the dynamics of the separation line is determined and the process of collapse of the cavity is described taking into account the rise of the internal free boundary of the liquid. Using the method of separating variables in cylindrical coordinates and the technique of paired integral equations, this problem is reduced to a coupled nonlinear problem that includes a transcendental equation for determining the radius of a circular separation line and a Fredholm integral equation of the second kind with a smooth kernel. A good agreement of analytical results obtained for a large layer thickness with direct numerical calculations is shown.
