A Sea Surface–Based Drag Model for Large-Eddy Simulation of Wind–Wave Interaction
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Monin–Obukhov similarity theory (MOST) is a well-tested approach for specifying the fluxes when the roughness surfaces are homogeneous. For flow over waves (inhomogeneous surfaces), phase-averaged roughness length scales ...
Feasibility of Kinetic Umbrellas as Deployable Flood Barriers during Landfalling Hurricanes
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: The legacy of structural artist Félix Candela is defined by his integration of thin hyperbolic paraboloid (hypar) shells within architecture across the Americas. One such form is the inverted umbrella, arising from the ...
