Abstract

Inhomogeneity generated waves, discovered more than a decade ago, play an important role in processes like energy transfer, turbulence generation, heating, etc. To understand the nature of these waves we developed the formalism that looks for the short-term changes in the initial waveform due to the linear interaction of the initial disturbance and inhomogeneities in the background. Some aspects of inhomogeneity generated waves in the pressure balanced structures have already been studied in earlier papers, presented at the scientific gatherings, or proposed to different government funded agencies. Here, my intention is to demonstrate an existence of inhomogeneity generated waves in the pressure balanced structures in the simple analytical form that provide insight about them.
