Since the publication of the Bass model in 1969, research on the modelling of the diffusion of innovation resulted in a vast body of scientific literature consisting of articles, books, and studies of real-world applications of this model.The main objective of the diffusion model is to describe a pattern of spread of innovation among potential adop

The paper presents the results of a numerical simulation of water jet (250 m/s) impact onto the surface of motionless liquid (water).The main attention has been paid to the influence of the jet end shape on the liquid dynamics in the vicinity of the impact site.This is of interest for the applications characterized by the destructive action of a li
