Intraslope lobes, or perched are attracting scientific interest because they represent a key archive between the shelf and deep basin plain when looking at complete source-to-sink depositional system across continental margin can form significant offshore hydrocarbon plays. In this study, we focus on detailed characterization of intraslope lobes Motta San Giovanni Formation (Miocene, Calabria),...

The circular hydraulic jump exhibits behavior quite different from that commonly observed in planar jumps. Here we examine experimentally some of the causes and consequences of those differences. We suggest that surface tension plays a dominant role in establishing the shape of the circular jump for impinging jets. The importance of surface tension is a direct result of the thinness of the liqu...

Hydrological jump characteristics in a rectangular open channel flume with sluice gates at both ends are the focus of this article. Among many aspects hydraulic that have been examined analytically and experimentally are: (i) Sequent depth relation (y2y1), (ii) Length jump, (iii) Relative loss energy (ELE1), (iv) Water profile jump. There was total 15 inflow tests conducted. With values between...

Observations are given for the foehn event which occurred in the Abashiri-Ohmu area (N44.3, E143.5), Hokkaido, northern Japan, on 12 May 1975. A numerical investigation is made of the foehn, using a 2-dimensional nonhydrostatic model. The foehn is well simulated, even without any diabatic heating in the presence of an inversion layer below 900hPa. This foehn is confirmed to be dynamically induc...

In an open channel, a hydraulic jump is a sudden transition from a high-velocity to slower, fluvial flow motion. The impinging flow forms a turbulent roller with a highly fluctuating free-surface, while a large amount of air bubbles is entrapped at the jump toe. The present work presents some physical investigations of hydraulic jumps based upon a wide range of inflow Froude numbers (3.8 < Fr1 ...
