Wave drag on floating bodies.
We measure the deceleration of liquid nitrogen drops floating at the surface of a liquid bath. On water, the friction force is found to be about 10 to 100 times larger than on a solid substrate, which is shown to arise from wave resistance. We investigate the influence of the bath viscosity and show that the dissipation decreases as the viscosity is increased, owing to wave damping. The measure...
متن کاملOrographic wave drag modelling
The main topic of this article is wave propagation in disordered media. Of particular interest is the long wave regime where an arbitrary rapidly varying orography is modelled as a (stochastic) disordered medium. A brief description of mathematical theory and results is presented. The apparent diffusive behaviour, predicted in the theory for the wave-orography interaction, is confirmed through ...
متن کاملVariability of Bed Drag on Cohesive Beds under Wave Action
Abstract: Drag force at the bed acting on water flow is a major control on water circulation and sediment transport. Bed drag has been thoroughly studied in sandy waters, but less so in muddy coastal waters. The variation of bed drag on a muddy shelf is investigated here using field observations of currents, waves, and sediment concentration collected during moderate wind and wave events. To es...
متن کاملPlastic Wave Propagation Model for Perforation of Metallic Plates by Blunt Projectiles
In this paper, a six-stage interactive model is presented for the perforation of metallic plates using blunt deformable projectiles when plastic wave propagation in both target and projectile is considered. In this analytical model, it is assumed that the projectile and target materials are rigid – plastic linear work hardened. The penetration of the projectile into the target is divided into s...
متن کاملThe physics of orographic gravity wave drag
*Correspondence: Miguel A. C. Teixeira, Department of Meteorology, University of Reading, Earley Gate, PO Box 243, Reading RG6 6BB, UK e-mail: [email protected] The drag and momentum fluxes produced by gravity waves generated in flow over orography are reviewed, focusing on adiabatic conditions without phase transitions or radiation effects, and steady mean incoming flow. The orographi...
