Boundary mixing by density overturns in an internal tidal beam
[1] A numerical study based on large eddy simulation (LES) is performed to investigate near‐bottom mixing processes in an internal wave beam over a critical slope. Transition to turbulence from an initial laminar state is followed by mixing events that occur at specific phases. Maximum turbulent kinetic energy and dissipation rate are found just after the zero velocity point when flow reverses ...
متن کاملExperiments on the motion of drops on a horizontal solid surface due to a wettability gradient.
Results from experiments performed on the motion of drops of tetraethylene glycol in a wettability gradient present on a silicon surface are reported and compared with predictions from a recently developed theoretical model. The gradient in wettability was formed by exposing strips cut from a silicon wafer to dodecyltrichlorosilane vapors. Video images of the drops captured during the experimen...

متن کاملHorizontal mixing in lakes
. Abstract. Horizontal mixing in the upper hypolimnion of lues far from the boundaries was studied in lake basins with surface areas between 5 and 220 km2 by observing the growth of the concentration distribution of the fluorescent dye sodium fluorescein (uranin). In each of the eight experiments, between 0.2 and 2 kg of uranin was instantaneously released into the lake in the appropriate depth...
متن کاملAsymmetric bone mineral density in the bilateral femoral necks due to gluteal implants: a case report
Interpreting asymmetric bone mineral density in the bilateral hips on dual energy x-ray absorptiometry requires investigation into the potential causes, both real and artifactual. Silicone gluteal implants have been reported to cause abnormally elevated bone mineral density. We report a case of abnormally low bone mineral density in a patient with bilateral gluteal implants. This is likely due ...
