Objectives: This questionnaire study compared the patterns of reported coping strategies of women high and low in perceived control over hot flushes. Method: A volunteer sample of 38 women fully completed a postal questionnaire. Perceived control was measured by a standardised scale (Reynolds 1997a) and respondents provided qualitative accounts of coping. Results: Consonant with previous findin...

Reynolds Averaging

It is neither feasible nor desirable to consider in detail all of the small-scale fluctuations that occur in the atmosphere. For this reason, we introduce averaging or smoothing operators, and attempt to describe only the average state of the atmosphere, following the approach of “Reynolds Averaging.” This leads, however, to additional terms in the governing equations for the averaged quantitie...

What is the Reynolds number of the Reynolds ’ Layer ? †

Several authors have now suggested that some interstellar clouds above the plane of the Galaxy are interacting with the Reynolds’ layer, the warm ionized gas extending well above (H ∼= 910 pc) the Galactic plane (Reynolds 1993). Characterizing the interaction between these clouds and their surroundings should be useful in understanding one source of interstellar turbulence: vertical shear flows...
