[1] The interaction of stratified tidal flow with an isolated bank (Jones Bank in the Celtic Sea) was investigated numerically and using observational data collected during the 25th research cruise of the R/V James Cook in July 2008. Two scenarios of observed wave generation, one with pure tidal forcing and another with an extra background current, were reproduced numerically and compared again...

We examine the question of uniqueness for the equivariant reduction of the harmonic map heat flow in the energy supercritical dimension d ≥ 3. It is shown that, generically, singular data can give rise to two distinct solutions which are both stable, and satisfy the local energy inequality. We also discuss how uniqueness can be retrieved.

Snow avalanches and other hazardous geophysical granular flows, such as debris flows, lahars and pyroclastic flows, often impact on obstacles as they flow down a slope, generating rapid changes in the flow height and velocity in their vicinity. It is important to understand how a granular material flows around such obstacles to improve the design of deflecting and catching dams, and to correctl...

black nightshade is a weed plant that grows abundantly in most parts of iran. in this study, central composite response surface method to investigate the effect of temperature 35-55 °c and pressures 170-350 bar during the dynamic time of 120 min, the particle size of 150 microns and flow rate of 3 liters per minute on the efficiency of oil extracted from the fruits of black nightshade and optim...

This paper develops an analytical two-part covariance kernel from velocity correlations across a two-dimensional (vertical and flow directions) Particle Image Velocimetry (PIV) flow field. This will form the basis of a model of wave action in flood water that includes the underlying turbulence velocity field using Karhunen–Loéve (KL) expansion. The PIV data was from the supercritical flow area ...

-A free-surface flow can change from a supercritical to subcritical flow with a strong dissipative phenomenon called a hydraulic jump. Herein the progress and development in turbulent hydraulic jumps are reviewed with a focus on hydraulic jumps operating at large Reynolds numbers typically encountered in natural streams and hydraulic structures. The key features of the turbulent hydraulic jumps...

Cochran, H.D., Cummings, P.T. and Karaborni, S., 1992. Solvation in supercritical water. Fluid Phase Equilibria, 71: 1-16. The aim of this work is to determine the solvation structure in supercritical water compared with that in ambient water and in simple supercritical solvents. Molecular dynamics studies have been undertaken of systems that model ionic sodium and chloride, atomic argon, and m...

Using a continuous flow apparatus, the solubility of tridodecylamine (TDA) in supercritical CO2 (scCO2), have been measured at temperatures of 308, 318, and 328 K in the pressure range of (8-40) MPa and a flow rate of 150 ± 10 mL min. At 308 and 318 K the solubility increases with pressure up to 15 MPa where it reaches a plateau. At 328 K the solubility increases with pressure up to 35 MPa and ...

A versatile and simple system is described that allows variation of the column flow rate in open-tubular capillary supercritical fluid chromatography using both on-column and postcolumn detection. The system is based on column-effluent splitting in a low-dead-volume T piece at the column exit just before detection. The flow is split into two streams. One stream is fed to a flame ionization dete...
