the assumptions considered in developing the saint-venant equations limit their application in many practical situations. the modified boussinesq equation was presented to overcome the limitation imposed by saint-venant equation due to the presence of non-hydrostatic pressure distribution and steep slope. in this paper a computational model was developed for solving the modified and the traditi...

We study slope stability of smooth surfaces and its connection with exceptional divisors. We show that a surface containing an exceptional divisor with arithmetic genus at least two is slope unstable for some polarisation. In the converse direction we show that slope stability of surfaces can be tested with divisors, and prove that for surfaces with non-negative Kodaira dimension any destabilis...

High field Q-slope is a loss mechanism frequently encountered by superconducting radio frequency (SRF) cavities. The goal of this experiment was to identify correlations between cavity surface impurities, caused by either nitrogen gas or a thin layer of oxidized niobium, and high field Q-slope. Unfortunately, due to an unpredictable series of complications, cavity test results were not obtained...

Variation in the computation of slope from digital elevation data can result in significantly different slope values and can, in turn, lead to widely varying estimates of environmental phenomena such as soil erosion that are highly dependent on slope. Ten methods of computing slope from distributed elevation data, utilizing capabilities inherent in five different geographic information systems ...

the modeling can provide a quantitative approach and consistency in the estimationsoil erosion and sediment yield by a wide range of conditions. in this study, the integration method of revised universal soil loss equation model, geographic information system and remote sensing techniques were used in order to identify the spatial distribution of soil erosion and sediment yield in the talar wat...

Accurate terrain representation with appropriate preservation of important terrain characteristics, especially slope steepness is becoming more crucial and fundamental as the geographical models are getting more complex and commonly used. Based on our earlier success in Overdetermined Laplacian Partial Differential Equation (ODETLAP), which allows for compact yet accurate compression of the Dig...
