The X-ray intensity around the capsule must be very symmetrical to avoid hydrodynamic instabilities during compression.
2.
However, the prototype experienced severe vibrations and hydrodynamic instability at 165 km / hr and was nearly destroyed in testing.
3.
Additionally Hohenberg worked ( with Swift ) on hydrodynamic instabilities and on pattern formation in non-equilibrium systems with Michael Cross.
4.
This effect is based on an electro-hydrodynamic instability forming what are now called " Williams domains " inside the liquid crystal.

The memo page 5 discusses the mix of ablator material and capsule fuel due likely to hydrodynamics instabilities in the outer surface of the ablator.

In 1982, he was awarded a PhD by Trinity College Dublin for his thesis " Planetary-scale Hydrodynamic Instability in the Atmosphere " written under the supervision of Ray Bates.

In 2009, Dr . Betti was awarded the Edward Teller Medal from the American Nuclear Society " for seminal contributions to the theory and understanding of hydrodynamic instabilities, implosion dynamics and thermonuclear ignition in inertial confinement fusion ."

Venditti et al . ( 2006 ), based on the earlier model by Liu ( 1957 ), proposed that instantaneous initiation is a manifestation of an interfacial hydrodynamic instability of Kelvin-Helmholtz type between a highly active pseudofluid sediment layer and the fluid above it.

Dr . Betti was a 2012 recipient of the U . S . Department of Energy's Ernest O . Lawrence Award for " a series of impactful theoretical discoveries in the physics of inertial confinement fusion including seminal transformative work on thermonuclear ignition, hydrodynamic instabilities and implosion dynamics, and the development of innovative approaches to ignition and energy gains ."
