We present a new set of experiments in local scour due to confined twin propeller jets aiming include driving characteristics the analysis scouring action during in-port manoeuvres. The maximum depth is studied as function bed clearance, wall clearance and efflux velocity jet. Aiming reproduce more realistic manoeuvres, both forward backward rotation propellers are analysed showing different be...

The method of coherent control allows one to exploit classical and quantum-mechanical interferences to control the dynamics of atomic, molecular, and solid-state systems, and to drive them into novel, non-equilibrium states. This technique has been widely applied to control both electronic and vibrational degrees of freedom in a variety of systems. Typically, a sequence of femtosecond pulses ex...
