The equations of motion of an elastic cable suspended in a
viscous medium from two arbitrary points are derived. These are
then linearized for the undamped, inextensible case, and it is found
that the equations describing the in-plane motion of the cable are
then independent of the equation describing the...
An experimental study was made of the average and turbulent
wind characteristics of the flow over a model of a coastal headland.
The scale of the model was 300:1, corresponding to a prototype size
of 500 m.
The data for validation of the model study was obtained from
instruments mounted...
