  • Influence of variable permeability on combined free and forced convection about inclined surfaces in porous media 
    Chandrasekhara, B. C; Namboodiri, P. M. S (Elsevier, 1985-01)
    The analysis is carried out for mixed convection about inclined surfaces in a saturated porous media incorporating the variation of permeability and thermal conductivity due to packing of particles. Similarity solutions ...
  • Mathematical sciences: The dynamics of Colliding Galaxies 
    Namboodiri, P. M. S (2006-01)
    Galaxies interact in a multitude of ways with their environment. Such interactions can alter the morphological type of galaxies, trigger star formation and even produce active galactic nuclei. During the past three decades ...
  • N-Body Simulation of a Deeply Penetrating Collision Between Unequal Galaxies 
    Namboodiri, P. M. S; Sastry, K. S; Narasimhan, K. S. V. S (Kluwer Academic Publishers, 1998-09)
    We study the tidal effects of a deeply penetrating collision between two spherical galaxies, one twice massive but less dense than the other, by numerical simulations. We consider the relative motion of the galaxies to be ...
  • N-body simulations of galaxy collisions 
    Namboodiri, P. M. S; Sastry, K. S; Narasimhan, K. S. V. S (Astronomical Society of India, 2001)
    The tidal effects of close collisions between two spherical galaxies of different mass and mass distributions are studied by numerical simulations. The galaxies are represented by polytropes of indices n = 4 and n = 0 which ...
  • On the Formation of Bridges and Tails in Interacting Galaxies - II 
    Namboodiri, P. M. S; Kochhar, R. K; Alladin, S. M (Astronomical Society of Indian, 1987-12)
  • On the formation of tails and bridges in interacting galaxies 
    Namboodiri, P. M. S; Kochhar, R. K (Astronomical Society of India, 1985-12)
    Interacting galaxies produce peculiar feature like tails, bridges, and counterarms of various sizes and shapes. Numerical experiments have been performed to investigate as to how the formation of tails and bridges depends ...
  • On the tidal disruption of a spherical galaxy 
    Namboodiri, P. M. S; Kochhar, R. K (Blackwell Publishing, 1991-12)
    The disruption of a satellite galaxy as it undergoes collision with a massive perturber is investigated by numerical simulations. The models are restricted by a constant pericentric distance. The disruption of the satellite ...
  • Oscillations In Galaxies 
    Namboodiri, P. M. S (Springer, 2000-02)
    Oscillations in galaxies have been investigated by numerical simulations. The various models used have density distributions corresponding to that of polytrope of index n in the range 0 ≤ n ≤ 4 and their evolution has been ...

    Oscillations in galaxies have been investigated by numerical simulations. The various models used have density distributions corresponding to that of polytrope of index n in the range 0 ≤ n ≤ 4 and their evolution has been ...
  • Possible Mechanisms of Formation of Clusters with cD Galaxies and Gravitational Lenses 
    Anosova, J; Namboodiri, P. M. S; Deshpande, M. R (Astronomical Society of the Pacific, 1996)
  • The relaxation time in spherical galaxy simulations 
    Namboodiri, P. M. S (International Astronomical Union, 2003)
    The relaxation time of a spherical galaxy with various density distributions has been evaluated using numerical simulations. The results indicate that the relaxation time is weakly dependent on the density of the galaxies ...
  • Remnants of closely interacting galaxies 
    Namboodiri, P. M. S (Anita Publications, 2004-12)
    Merging and non-merging collisions of galaxies have been performed by numerical simulations. The galaxies are modelled as equal mass spherical systems and the density distribution closely follows the Plummer model. The ...

  • Similarity solutions for buoyancy induced flows in a saturated porous medium adjacent to impermeable horizontal surfaces 
    Chandrasekhara, B. C; Namboodiri, P. M. S; Hanumanthappa, A. R (Springer, 1984-03)
    In the present paper similarity solutions for the convective flow induced by buoyancy in a saturated porous medium adjacent to horizontal impermeable surfaces are obtained. The analysis incorporates the variation of ...
  • Some properties of merger remnants of interacting galaxies modeled as n = 4 polytrope 
    Namboodiri, P. M. S (Astronomical Society of India, 2008-03)
    Galaxies interact in a multitude of ways with their environ- ment. Such interactions can alter the morphological type of galaxies, trigger star formation and even produce active galactic nuclei. One of the important parameter ...
  • Spin angular momentum of tidally affected galaxies 
    Namboodiri, P. M. S; Kochhar, R. K (Royal Astronomical Society, 1991-06)
