We study the linear, but fully non-adiabatic tidal response of a uniformly rotating, somewhat evolved (X c = 0.4), 10 M ⊙ main sequence star to the dominant l = 2 components of its binary companion's tidal potential. This is done numerically with a 2D implicit finite difference scheme. We assume the spin vector of the 10 M ⊙ star to be aligned perpendicular to the orbital plane and calculate th...

We present N -body simulations of dissolving star clusters close to galactic centres. For this purpose, we developed a new N -body program called nbody6gc based on Aarseth’s series of N -body codes. We describe the algorithm in detail. We report about the density wave phenomenon in the tidal arms which has been recently explained by Küpper et al. (2008). Standing waves develop in the tidal arms...

Abstract: A refined assessment of tidal currents variability is a prerequisite for successful turbine deployment in the marine environment. However, the numerical evaluation of the tidal kinetic energy resource relies, most of the time, on integrated parameters, such as the averaged or maximum stream powers. Predictions from a high resolution three-dimensional model are exploited here to charac...

Since the 1950s, numerous publications of analytical studies of tidal wave propagations in coastal aquifers have been appeared. This paper reviews the following aspects: importance of tidal effects in studies of coastal areas, analytical studies of tide-induced groundwater flow and related case studies. Finally several important open problems in analytical studies of tide-induced groundwater fl...

This is done numerically with a 2D implicit finite difference scheme. We assume the spin vector of the 10 M star to be aligned perpendicular to the orbital plane and calculate the fr...

abstract: the new neonatal ventilation methods have been developed along with utilization of new technological tools.this device is synchronized with the patient’s respiratory efforts. the ideal synchronized breath needs to be synchronous with initiation, size, and termination of the breath without delay in detecting of initial resiratory effort by device .the synchrony of respiration contribut...

background: patients undergone mechanical ventilation need rapid and reliable evaluation of their respiratory status. monitoring of end-tidal carbon dioxide (etco2) as a surrogate, noninvasive measurement of arterial carbon dioxide (paco2) is one of the methods used for this purpose in intubated patients. objectives: the aim of the present trial was to study the relationship between end-tidal c...

This paper describes the potential environmental changes caused by tidal power installations with illustration for schemes in the eastern Irish Sea, focussing mainly on major estuarine barrages. The generic impacts in the near-field and far-field are discussed. Results from a 0-D and a 2-D model are presented: the former allows rapid calculations to be made for a large range of options while th...

Exhaled nitric oxide (NO) may be a useful marker of lung inflammation, but the concentration is highly dependent on exhalation flow rate due to a significant airway source. Current methods for partitioning pulmonary NO gas exchange into airway and alveolar regions utilize multiple exhalation flow rates or a single-breath maneuver with a preexpiratory breath hold, which is cumbersome for childre...

Groundwater plays an important role in coastal regions by delivering freshwater and nutrients to near shore and salt marsh environments. To quantify groundwater flow, salinity, temperature and pressure, sensors were installed in shallow piezometers along a transect behind Blackbeard Island, GA. Located approximately 90 m from the nearest tidal creek, the transect reaches from a back barrier isl...
