Abstract: he problem of flow moving purely in the azimuthal direction on a sphere is considered. An exact solution for an incompressible (constant density), inviscid fluid, which admits a velocity profile below the surface and along ...

Abstract: he general problem of an ocean on a rotating sphere is considered. The governing equations for an inviscid, incompressible fluid, written in spherical coordinates that are fixed at a point on the rotating Earth, together ...

Abstract: AbstractA systematic development, based on the construction of an asymptotic solution of the Euler equation, written in rotating, spherical coordinates (φ,?,r), is used to investigate the flows of the type seen in the ...

Abstract: The sliding-block model is often used for the prediction of permanent coseismic displacements of natural slopes and earth structures. This model assumes motion in an inclined plane but does not consider the decrease in ...

Abstract: The influence of clear air entrainment on the droplet effective radius of cloudy air parcels is investigated theoretically and experimentally by using data collected in 16 warm maritime tropical cumuli during the Joint ...

Abstract: Instrutnented aircraft 10-Hz data collected during the Joint Hawaii Warm Rain Project (1985) have been used to investigate CCN activation in clouds at levels far from cloud base and to infer the relation with clear air ...

Abstract: This article presents an assessment of the effects of pore water pressure generation of the soil foundation on the seismic road embankment response. Numerical simulations were carried out to study the preloading technique ...
