Abstract: In this paper we examine internal sloshing motions in 2-D numerical wave tanks subjected to horizontal excitation. In all of the cases studied, the rectangular tank of liquid has a width-to-depth ...

Abstract: Modal properties of Antarctic Intermediate Water (AAIW) are determined from bivariate distribution diagrams for two regions in the southeast Pacific and two regions in the South Atlantic. The volumetric potential ...

Abstract: A computer-oriented Monte Carlo algorithm for simulating the stochastic coalescence process in a warm cloud is presented. The computational procedures used in the algorithm are rigorously derived from the fundamental premise ...

Abstract: In an attempt to resolve the confusion over the ?stochastic completeness? of the stochastic coalescence equation, an analysis is made of an idealized cloud consisting of a number of large ?drops? falling through very many ...

Abstract: The stochastic coalescence model for droplet growth in warm clouds is analyzed, with a view to clarifying the theoretical foundations and significance of the well-known stochastic coalescence equation. It is suggested that ...

Abstract: This paper describes the theory of nonlinear internal-solitary waves of the type observed in coastal seas. It also describes a numerical solution of an initial-value problem that leads to an ...

Abstract: Approximately 30% of all vehicle related fatalities that occur each year are caused by a single vehicle leaving the road and striking a fixed object; the most common objects struck being trees, guardrails, and utility ...

Abstract: Satellite retrieval of cirrus cloud microphysical properties is an important but difficult problem because of uncertainties in ice-scattering characteristics. Most methods have been developed for instruments aboard ...
