A model of the sound generated by breaking waves
The sound produced from a single bubble, oscillating atits breathing mode frequency, and the bubble size distribution are used to model the sound produced by breaking waves. The data of Medwin and Daniel [$. Acoust. Soc. Am. 88, 408-412 ( 1990} ] is used to evaluate the performance ofthe model. The model generates a damped sinusoidal pulse for every bubble formed, as calculated from the bubble ...
متن کاملCapillary-gravity waves generated by a slow moving object.
We investigate theoretically and experimentally the capillary-gravity waves created by a small object moving steadily at the water-air interface along a circular trajectory. It is well established that, for straight uniform motion, no steady waves appear at velocities below the minimum phase velocity c(min)=23 cm s(-1). We demonstrate that no such velocity threshold exists for a steady circular...
متن کاملLee Waves and Mountain Waves ∗
Buoyancy perturbations develop when stably stratified air ascends a mountain barrier. These perturbations often trigger disturbances that propagate away from the mountain as gravity (or buoyancy) waves. Gravity waves triggered by the flow over a mountain are referred to as mountain waves or lee waves. Mountain waves sometimes reveal their presence through dramatic cloud formations, such as smoo...
متن کاملInternal gravity waves generated by a turbulent bottom Ekman layer
Internal gravity waves excited by the turbulent motions in a bottom Ekman layer are examined using large-eddy simulation. The outer flow is steady and uniformly stratified while the density gradient is set to zero at the flat lower wall. After initializing with a linear density profile, a mixed layer forms near the wall separated from the ambient stratification by a pycnocline. Two types of int...
متن کاملExperimental study of internal gravity waves generated by supercritical topography
Oscillatory tides flowing over rough topography on the ocean floor generate internal gravity waves, which are a major source of ocean mixing. Linear inviscid theory can describe waves generated by gentle topography with slopes that are less steep than the propagation angle of the internal waves; such topography is termed subcritical. However, a clear physical picture of internal waves generated...
