Data on Shape and Location of Detached Shock Waves on Cones and Spheres
Author: Juergen W. Heberle
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category : Cone
Languages : en
Pages : 76
Book Description
Accurate experimental data are given on the shape and the location of detached shock waves on cones and spheres at Mach numbers from 1.17 to 1.81. The data are correlated to obtain equations that describe the shock waves. This knowledge of the shock waves should be useful in calculations of the pressure distribution and the pressure drag of the fore part of cones and spheres. The experimental data on shock waves are compared with theory.

Waves in Geophysical Fluids
Author: John Grue
Publisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 3211693564
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 345
Book Description
This book describes the forecasting and risk evaluation of tsunamis by tectonic motion, land slides, explosions, run-up, and maps the tsunami sources in the world's oceans. It presents stochastic Monte-Carlo simulations and focusing mechanisms for rogue waves, nonlinear wave models, breather formulas, and the kinematics of the Draupner wave. Coverage also reveals the full story about the discovery of the very large oceanic internal waves.

Rogue Waves 2000
Author: Michel Olagnon
Publisher: Editions Quae
ISBN: 9782844330635
Category : Ocean engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 412
Book Description
Brest, 29 au 29 novembre 2000. C'est aujourd'hui une certitude que certaines vagues outrepassent en hauteur et en cambrure les prédictions fondées sur les modèles courants. L'amélioration de la compréhension des raisons, des mécanismes, et des circonstances de leur apparition se doit donc d'être une priorité de recherche. Le colloque Rogue Waves 2000 a rassemblé à Brest nombre des scientifiques et ingénieurs actifs sur le sujet, qui y ont trouvé l'occasion de confronter et discuter leurs avancées les plus récentes en termes de définition, de statistiques, de modélisation et de prédiction de ces vagues anormales. Mots-clés : vagues, extrêmes, non-linéarités, vagues anormales, vagues scélérates.

Ionization Waves in Electrical Breakdown of Gases
Author: A.N. Lagarkov
Publisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 1461242940
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 237
Book Description
In the years since the book of Lozanskii and Firsov "The Theory of Spark" [1975] was published, a number of experimental and theoretical studies in the physics of electric breakdown in gases were conducted. As a result of these studies, the concept of a wavelike nature of breakdown initiated by single high-voltage electric pulses or by a constant electric field was confirmed. Theoretical models in which the concept of breakdown in a constant external field was developed were first exposed in the above-named book in the chapter "Development of a streamer regarded as an ionization wave," written by Rodin and Starostin. This book treats the initial stage of electric breakdown as a wave pro cess. The wavelike nature of the phenomena under consideration is pre sented for streamers and sliding discharges, for electric breakdown develop ment in long discharge tubes as well as in gas-filled gaps. Chapter 1 gives a qualitative consideration of phenomena determin ing the electric breakdown of gases. The experimental data and theoretical results are exposed and discussed with application to streamers, plane ion ization waves, breakdown waves in long tubes, and propagation of sliding discharges. The subject of this chapter may be considered as an area of applications of different theoretical models, formulas, and estimates that are presented in other chapters of the book.
