Abstract: A severe depth-limited storm and a case of extreme swell, which both occurred in the southern North Sea, are hindcasted with a regional version of the third-generation WAM model. This is done using different expressions ...

Abstract: Mean and variance of horizontal wind direction are defined in a minimal variance sense. Starting from a theoretical model, termed anisotropic Gaussian model, of the probability density functions of the Cartesian wind ...

Abstract: An analysis for predicting the secondary and primary flows and the thrust coefficient of ejector nozzles is presented. Particular attention is given to the diverging shroud ejector in which the ...

Abstract: A simple, semiempirical method for calculating the laminar, transition, and turbulent boundary layer with arbitrary free stream pressure gradient is developed. Good correlation is obtained with ...

Abstract: A theory for the prediction of flow for fully choked divergent shroud nozzles has been compared with experiment and corrected empirically. The prediction of thrust has been extended to include ...

Abstract: A method for aerothermodynamic preliminary design of a wave engine is presented. The engine has a centrifugal precompressor for the wave rotor, which feeds high and low-pressure turbines. Three ...

Abstract: he Eulerian volume transport in internal equatorial Kelvin waves subject to viscous attenuation is investigated theoretically by integrating the horizontal momentum equations in the vertical. In terms of small perturbations, ...
