The Virtual Mass of a Rotating Sphere in Fluids
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: An analytical solution to the virtual mass of a rotating fluid or solid sphere is obtained. The solution is valid at Reynolds number <10. The solution was based on integrating the kinetic ...

STRATIFICATION OF CLOUD LAYERS IN A STABLE ATMOSPHERE
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: In this paper an attempt is made to explain the phenomenon of cloud stratification which is occasionally observed in the atmosphere. The leading thought is that these stratifications are caused by internal gravity waves. ...
The Spiral Bands of a Hurricane: A Possible Dynamic Explanation
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: In this paper an attempt is made to explain the shape and behavior of the spiral bands of a hurricane. The main hypothesis is that the bands are associated with gravitational waves of finite amplitude propagating at. the ...
