Abstract: A general analysis of the resistance to rotation of disks at high Reynolds numbers is presented. The theoretical calculations of the fluid-induced torque on free and enclosed, smooth and rough ...

Abstract: The authors obtain an exact solution for the stream function representing the title flow problem when the gaps, the radii, and the velocities of the two spheres are arbitrary. For spheres ...

Abstract: We consider the problem of calculating the wave load distribution acting on a large conical vertical ocean structure (monotower) due to an ambient nonuniform flow field. Under the assumption ...

Abstract: A linearized theory is presented for the dead-water phenomena. A two-layer fluid model of finite depth is assumed and the solutions for both the wave resistance, as well as the interface and ...
