The problem of a fixed rectangular structure of unit width in a
train of simple harmonic normally-incident waves is modeled. The solution
allows for variable (1) length and draft of structure, (2) differing
depths in the three (fore, aft, and beneath the structure) distinct
regions, and (3) wave period. The...
The problem of heat transfer due to free convection in a channel formed
by two parallel, isoflux, vertical plates is of considerable importance in electronic
cooling applications, thermosiphons, the optimum spacing of plates or components,
industrial stacks, heat exchangers, nuclear power plants and combustion involving
vertical walls. Although in each...

This study includes an analytical solution to the wave-current
barrier interaction problem and large scale experiments to validate the
theory.
The boundary value problem is solved mathematically by characterizing
the flow field and barrier motion separately, then coupling
the relationships with the appropriate kinematic and dynamic boundary
conditions.
The flow...
