Drag forces in classical fields.
Inclusions, or defects, moving at constant velocity through free classical fields are shown to be subject to a drag force which depends on the field dynamics and the coupling of the inclusion to the field. The results are used to predict the drag exerted on inclusions, such as proteins, in lipid membranes due to their interaction with height and composition fluctuations. The force, measured in ...
متن کاملModeling the Drag Forces of Porous Media Acoustics
The drag forces controlling the amount of relative flow induced in a fluid-saturated porous material by a mechanical wave are modeled here from first principles. Specifically, analytical expressions are derived for the drag force in material models that possess variable-width pores; Le., pores that have widths that vary with distance along their axis. The dynamic (complex, frequency-dependent) ...
متن کاملDrag forces in the near and distant solar system
Like the solar photons the solar wind particles induce a drag force onto the zodiacal dust grains in the heliosphere. For the distant solar wind with high Mach numbers the drag coefficient is a constant, but close to the Sun, where Mach numbers become small, the drag coefficient is a complicated function of the ion sound speed, density and temperature. We discuss the dynamics of dust particles ...
متن کاملDrag Shows: Drag Kings and Male Impersonators
The shifting status of transgender practices within the queer subculture has resulted in a renaissance of drag that has taken it into the mainstream culture of mass media, fine arts, and high fashion. Thus, Demi Moore has been featured in a suit and facial hair in an Arena magazine drag spread. Drag kings have also appeared prominently in such varied mainstream publications as Marie Claire, the...
متن کاملAn analysis of drag forces based on L-moments
Since L-moment estimators are linear functions of the ordered data values, they are virtually unbiased and have relatively small sampling variance, especially in comparison to the classical coefficients of skewness and kurtosis. Moreover, estimators of L-moments are relatively insensitive to outliers. Liaw and Zheng (2004) calculated drag forces on cylinders by polynomial approximations in whic...
