In Eulerian and Lagrangian representation, using computer-calculated wind vector fields over southern Florida, the influence of sea breeze circulation, convergence and divergence zones on the transport of...
Discusses the efforts of scientists to deal with the often destructive forces of wind through the science of wind engineering. Shows the collapse of a suspension bridge due to ‘resonance effects’....
Part 1: Derives the steady flow energy equation. Part 2: Shows the uses of the steady flow energy equation in typical engineering examples: throttle, turbine, compressor, etc.
Part 1: Derivation. A consideration of the derivation of equations for isothermal fluid flow. General arguments of continuity are applied to fluid flows. Part 2: Fluid stress/strain. Rates of fluid stress...
Flow in a pipe is used to illustrate laminar and turbulent flow. The Reynolds number is explained as the ratio of inertia and viscous forces, the key Reynolds number of 2500 being given as the limit of...
Phenomena associated with the rotation of homogeneous fluids. Includes horizontal trajectories in surface gravity waves, low and high Rossby number flows around spheres, Taylor walls, normal modes of inertia...
The experiments show that density variations, together with gravity, make possible forces that can generate internal waves; inhibit turbulent diffusion, or create strong velocity gradients and jets....
Illustrates the two principal ways of describing fluid motion, using computer-generated displays of displacement, velocity and acceleration fields for single flows. The physical relationship between the two...
The main experiment, generation of surface waves by wind in a water channel, is used to illustrate the general features of flow instability. The curve of neutral stability is developed by systematically...
Demonstrates basic aspects of viscous incompressible boundary layers: 1) what causes them; 2) how they grow; 3) how they respond to pressure gradients; 4) the main stages in the transaction of laminar layers...
