The study of wave and its propagation on the water surface is among significant phenomena in designing quay, marine and water structures. Therefore, in order to design structures which are exposed to direct wave forces, it is necessary to study and simulate water surface height and the wave forces on the structures body in different boundary conditions. In this study, the propagation of static ...

Tropical cyclone ocean–wave model interactions are examined using an ESMF – (Earth System Modeling Framework) based tropical cyclone (TC) version of the Coupled Ocean/Atmosphere Mesoscale Prediction System (COAMPS ). This study investigates Hurricane Ivan, which traversed the Gulf of Mexico (GOM) in September 2004. Several oceanic and wave observational data sets, including Acoustic Doppler Cur...

A long-held but untested hydroclimatic model maintains that, in the arid southern Great Basin, U.S.A., hydrographically isolated watersheds held no late Quaternary paleolakes, even during pluvial periods. We test this at Ivanpah Dry Lake, which has a watershed lying wholly within mountains of Mojave Desert, and obvious ancient shorelines. Remote imagery was used to identify relict geomorphic fe...

Taking the 14,030 panel of Zhaogu No. 2 coal mine as its research object, this paper studies evolution characteristics developing height, propagation track and caving arch shape water-flowing fractures under influence thick alluvium by utilizing a physical experiment, theoretical analysis field investigation. The results show that height limit span fracture zone experience four stages, which in...

It is known that the imaginary parts of the quasinormal mode ~QNM! frequencies for the Schwarzschild black hole are evenly spaced with a spacing that depends only on the surface gravity. On the other hand, for massless minimally coupled scalar fields, there exist no QNMs in the pure de Sitter spacetime. It is not clear what the structure of the QNMs would be for the Schwarzschild–de Sitter ~SDS...

I. Introduction The literature points to a vast array of plasmonic enhancement effects being studied for biosensing applications. Plasmonic biosensors utilise surface plasmon waves to sense the surface adsorption of analytes from a complex sample solution. In this report, we present a surface plasmon resonance (SPR) biosensor (based on the Kretchmann configuration) which incorporates surface na...
