L. Youngs, Multiphase Science and Technology, Vol. 3, pp.477−479, 1987). There are considerable differences in the predictive instability growth between various codes. These results were given which showed that, with too fine a nodalisation, rapid growth of the instability occurs with numerical damping failing to stop the growth at high wave number instabilities. %8 1992-11-01
