Solution of Wave Equations Near Seawalls by Finite Element Method
A 2D finite element model for the solution of wave equations is developed. The fluid is considered as incompressible and irrotational. This is a difficult mathematical problem to solve numerically as well as analytically because the condition of the dynamic boundary (Bernoulli’s equation) on the free surface is not fixed and varies with time. The finite element technique is applied to solve non...
متن کاملNew South Africa: the Case of Durban
South Africa's apartheid legacy is well known and has been widely researched. The impact ofapartheid was most acute in the urban areas. The present South African city form had been shaped by the early colonial measures to keep the urban areas predominantly for white use and occupation. As the democratic initiatives ofthe 1990s gained momentum various strategies were pursued to reverse the effec...
متن کاملKing Edward VIII Hospital, Durban, South Africa
Objectives-To evaluate the role of detecting asymptomatic bacteriuria and endocervical infections in the black prenatal patients attending King Edward VIII Hospital (KEH), Durban, with the view of justifying a screening programme. Screening for syphilis and human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection were also evaluated. Subjects-181 asymptomatic black prenatal patients attending the antenatal...
متن کاملKwaZulu - Natal Durban 4041 , South Africa
We present an emergent universe scenario making use of a new solution of the Starobinsky model. The solution belongs to a one parameter family of solutions, where the parameter is determined by the number and the species (spin-values) of primordial fields. The general features of the model have also been studied. PACS numbers : 04.20.Jb, 98.80.Cq, 98.80.Jk Email: [email protected] Email: bc...
متن کاملNear-Surface Attenuation Modelling Based on Rock Shear-Wave Velocity Profile
In a previous study published in this journal, the authors developed a comprehensive methodology for modelling the shear wave velocity profile in crustal rock, for purposes of seismic hazard assessment. The derived shear wave velocity profile was used to estimate the amplification and attenuation mechanisms in the transmission of seismic waves. The ability to conduct seismic hazard assessments ...
