Abstract: A model is considered of the turbulent bottom boundary layer beneath waves. Closure is effected at the level of the turbulent energy equation and numerical solutions are obtained by a combination of finite-difference methods ...

Abstract: A parameterization scheme is developed that is suitable for the modeling of turbulence in marine systems and an application is made to the determination of the tidal structure in an elongated channel. The model is used to ...

Abstract: The paper describes a mathematical analysis of multi-component diffusion with chemical reaction in the porous materials of high-temperature solid oxide fuel cells. The objectives are to clarify ...

Abstract: A theoretical account is given of the turbulent boundary layer at the ocean floor beneath a co-oscillating tidal flow. A parameterization, involving the techniques described by Johns and Dyke, is used to obtain an assessment ...

Abstract: An experimental study is presented on the structural response of reinforced concrete skew bridges of: (a) orthogonally, (b) nonorthogonally shaped waffle slab constructions, and (c) solid slab construction. The response ...

Abstract: During May and June 1985, the Oklahoma-Kansas Preliminary Regional Experiment for STORM-Central (the Oklahoma-KansasPRE-STORM Program) was conducted to investigate the structureand dynamics of mesoscale convective systems ...

Abstract: The flow field within the cylinder of internal combustion engines is the most important factor controlling the combustion process. Thus it has a major impact on engine operation. This paper ...
