Avalanches at rough surfaces.
We describe the surface properties of a simple lattice model of a sandpile that includes evolving structural disorder. We present a dynamical scaling hypothesis for generic sandpile automata and, additionally, explore the kinetic roughening of the sandpile surface, indicating its relationship with the sandpile evolution. Finally, we comment on the surprisingly good agreement found between this ...
متن کاملElectrocapillary coupling at rough surfaces.
We investigate the impact of the surface roughness on the experimental value of the electrocapillary coupling coefficient, ς. This quantity relates the response of electrode potential, E, to tangential elastic strain, e, and also measures the variation of the surface stress, f, with the superficial charge density, q. We combine experiments measuring the apparent coupling coefficient ςeff for go...
متن کاملOne-Layer Turbulent Geophysical Flows
Statistical bounds controlling the total fluctuations in mean and variance about a basic steady 6 state solution are developed for the truncated barotropic flows over topography. Statistical ensemble predic7 tion is an important topic in weather and climate research. Here the evolution of an ensemble of trajectories 8 is considered in the statistical instability analysis and is compared and con...
متن کاملTurbulent Flow in Geophysical Channels
The problem of turbulent flow in a rough pipe of arbitrary shape is considered. The classical Izakson-Millikan argument for a logarithmic velocity profile is presented, and matched asymptotic expansions are introduced. Scaled, dimensionless equations are produced and simplified. A simple mixing length turbulence model is presented, which closes the problem. To calibrate the model, the mechanica...
متن کاملGeophysical Phenomena and Processes
The physical description in itself can be based on the kind of coupling being involved (i.e., thermal, gravitational, electromagnetic, or by matter exchange). Gravitational coupling is related to celestial mechanics and tidal deformation. Thermal coupling is ultimately concerned with energy balance. Matter exchange is concerned with the interaction between contiguous systems, and particularly i...
