The dock problem revisited

The dock problem (cf. [2], [4, 5]), which is that of understanding the scattering of surface water waves by a thin semi-infinite rigid plate floating on the free surface of water of infinite depth, gives rise to the following mixed boundary value problem, involving Laplace’s equation in two dimensions, with (x, y) representing the rectangular Cartesian coordinates, assuming linearised theory of...

The finite dock problem

The scattering of water waves by a dock of finite width and infinite length in water of finite depth is solved using the modified residue calculus technique. The problem is formulated for obliquely incident waves and the case of normal incidence is recovered by taking an appropriate limit. Exciting forces and pitching moments are calculated as well as reflection and transmission coefficients. T...

the effect of taftan pozzolan on the compressive strength of concrete in the environmental conditions of oman sea (chabahar port)

cement is an essential ingredient in the concrete buildings. for production of cement considerable amount of fossil fuel and electrical energy is consumed. on the other hand for generating one tone of portland cement, nearly one ton of carbon dioxide is released. it shows that 7 percent of the total released carbon dioxide in the world relates to the cement industry. considering ecological issu...

Chibby’s function in the dock

A ribonuclease helps the ER get in shape S chwarz and Blower reveal that a calcium-regulated ribonuclease promotes the formation of tubular ER networks. By triggering a wave of intracellular calcium, fertilization induces dramatic changes in the internal organization and protein expression pattern of oocytes. Schwarz and Blower discovered that increased calcium levels activate a ribonuclease ca...
