Abstract: Matrix C defined in Appendices C and D is singular and hence expressions containing the inverse of C cannot be used as such. The singularity is a consequence of the chosen organization of ...

Abstract: A new model is derived for the propagation of surface waves across a shearing current, which is applicable when the wavelength is comparable to the lateral length scale over which the current changes. When applied to wave ...

Abstract: Bottom-mounted pressure gauges are used to measure waves in coastal inlets, where tidal currents are significant. Theoretically, neglect of the current in analysis of pressure data can lead to order-one errors in wave ...

Abstract: The numerical solution of the linear dispersion relation for water waves is considered for the case of the evanescent modes. A two-point Padeó approximation is constructed based upon correct asymptotic behavior at both ...

Abstract: Numerical Green's function for steady-state heat conduction problems is derived in a finite-sized medium that may contain inclusions (fibers) in the matrix phase. Green's function is ...

Abstract: The “Quantitative Pole Placement” (QPP) identified in the context of guaranteed tracking in the sense of spheres is considered. At the center of this design philosophy is the need for directly ...

Abstract: The effect of mechanical deformation on the permeation of methylene chloride (MEC), trichloroethylene (TCE) as well as mixtures thereof through linear low-density polyethylene (LLDPE) geomembranes was studied using a new ...
