Creator:: Ali, Abdulmuhsen H.
Abstract:: In chapter 3 of our paper we present equations of motion for continuous mass distribution subject to hydrodynamic forces in their most general form. We start with equations for discrete mass particles and then transform the equations so that it is appropriate for a continuous mass distribution. As we do...
Resource Type:: Dissertation
Full Text:: mathematical model for describing surface tension is empirically based rather than being derived from first

Creator:: Schneider, Donald A.
Abstract:: The thermal contact conductance (TCC) between two machined pieces of stainless steel was studied. A guarded hot plate thermal conductivity test fixture was designed and built for the experiment. Factors investigated included the contact pressure, surface roughness, interface material and average test temperature. The contact pressure at the interface ranged...
Resource Type:: Masters Thesis
Full Text:: existing mathematical model was used to predict the TCC with air as the interface material, and was found

Creator:: Al-Malah, Kamal Issa Masoud
Resource Type:: Dissertation
Full Text:: upon adsorption. Wei et al. (1991) examined the role of protein structure in surface tension

Creator:: Woods, Douglas N.
Abstract:: The high-order finite element S[subscript N] transport equations are solved on several test problems to investigate the behavior of the discretization method on meshes with curved edges in X-Y geometry. Simpler problems ensured the correct implementation of MFEM, the general fi nite element library employed. A convergence study using the...
Resource Type:: Masters Thesis
Full Text:: impractical to model all of the particles that exist in some real world problems so an average particle

Creator:: Cooper, Julia M.
Abstract:: The classical two-dimensional wavemaker problem is formulated for linear waves. Two conformal mappings are applied to the mathematical formulation to transform the wavemaker problem into a unit disk. It is then shown that this technique cannot produce in practice a numerical representation of the fluid motion throughout time for any...
Resource Type:: Masters Thesis
Full Text:: assumed to be irrotational throughout time, and the surface tension is taken to be zero. With these

Creator:: Ju, Chang-Yuan
Resource Type:: Dissertation
Full Text:: . SURFACE LOCAL FIELD CALCULATION WITH DISCRETE POINT DIPOLE MODEL 6 2.1 Electric Dipole Radiation 7 2.2

Creator:: Kelly, Samuel M.
Abstract:: Tide-topography coupling is important for understanding surface-tide energy loss, the intermittency of internal tides, and the cascade of internal-tide energy from large to small scales. Although tide-topography coupling has been observed and modeled for 50 years, the identification of surface and internal tides over arbitrary topography has not been standardized....
