A simplified water wave model was developed for predicting the global vibration of human vocal folds. As the depth of the liquids in the lamina propria is 1/2–1/20 of the wavelength, they were analogized to intermediate waters. The water wave model predicted elliptic orbits of the tissue particles with the major axis parallel to the surface, and these ellipses flattened with depth. This vibrati...

This research simulates one of the natural phenomena, the ocean wave. Our goal is to be able to simulate the ocean wave at real-time rate with the water surface interacting with objects. The wave in this research is calm and smooth caused by the force of the wind above the ocean surface. In order to make the simulation of the wave real-time, the implementation of the GPU and the multithreading ...

This paper presents an efficient numerical algorithm for the nonlinear wave-wave interactions that can be important in the evolution of coastal waves. Random sea waves of multiple frequencies always interact with each other and with the variable wind and pressure fields. As waves propagate and transform from deep to shallow water, it is generally difficult to determine the actual amount of nonl...

The spark shadowgram method of studying shock waves is described. It has been used to investigate the properties of such waves produced by the impact of a high velocity missile on the surface of water. The method can be adapted for study of behavior of shock waves in tissue by placing the tissue on a water surface or immersing it in water. Spark shadowgrams then reveal waves passing from tissue...

it is proposed to use a single base platform in the persian gulf considering its low depth and more appropriate environmental conditions in comparison to north sea and mexico gulf where this kind of platform is very popular. the pile of platform is responsible for transmission of environmental loads resulted from waves, currents, wind and dead loads to foundation of platform. using sacs 5.3 sof...

As with all coral reef systems, the ecology of Ningaloo Reef is closely linked to water circulation which transport and disperse key material such as nutrients and larvae. Circulation on coral reefs may be driven by a number of forcing mechanisms including waves, tides, wind, and buoyancy effects. Surface waves interacting with reefs have long been known to dominate the currents on many coral r...

Wind, wave and current interactions control the boundary fluxes, momentum and energy exchange between the atmosphere and the ocean, and within the water column. The wind wave effect on the circulation is investigated in a threedimensional time-dependant ocean circulation model. This POM (Princeton Ocean Model) based model is implemented with realistic coastlines in South China Sea and emphasize...

We are interested in the modeling of wave-current interactions around surf zones at beaches. Any model that aims to predict the onset of wave breaking at the breaker line needs to capture both the nonlinearity of the wave and its dispersion. We have therefore formulated the Hamilto5 nian dynamics of a new water wave model, incorporating both the shallow water and pure potential flow water wave ...
