A Nonlinear Model of the Shoaling and Refraction of Interfacial Solitary Waves in the Ocean. Part I: Development of the Model and Investigations of the Shoaling Effect
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Oceanic internal waves are frequently observed to be of large amplitude, and to exhibit significant wave front curvature, as seen in synthetic aperture radar images. The aim of this paper is to present a refraction model ...
A Nonlinear Model of the Shoaling and Refraction of Interfacial Solitary Waves in the Ocean. Part II: Oblique Refraction across a Continental Slope and Propagation over a Seamount
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The refraction of internal solitary waves can be due to variations in water depth, nonlinearity, stratification, or shear. This paper addresses the effects of the first two of these effects. Part I of this paper investigated ...
Refraction and Shoaling of Nonlinear Internal Waves at the Malin Shelf Break
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: This paper applies a numerical model to explain the refraction and shoaling of nonlinear internal waves observed at the Malin slope for a sequence of tidal cycles in the summer of 1995. The model is first order in dispersion ...

Flexible Long-Reach Robotic Limbs Using Tape Springs for Mobility and Manipulation
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Conventional mobile robots have difficulty navigating highly unstructured spaces such as caves and forests. In these environments, a highly extendable limb could be useful for deploying hooks to climb over terrain, or for ...
