a major part of tidal energy is usually dissipated by the interaction of tidal currents with bottom topography. gulf of oman is a marginal sea which has variable topography and its dominant tidal constituent is m2 semi-diurnal tide. in this paper, the interaction of barotropic tidal current with bottom topography is evaluated. this phenomenon causes the formation of internal tide. internal tide...

We prove short time existence and uniqueness of smooth solutions ( in C with k ≥ 2) to the 2-D semi-geostrophic system and semi-geostrophic shallow water system with variable Coriolis parameter f and periodic boundary conditions, under the natural convexity condition on the initial data. The dual space used in analysis of the semi-geostrophic system with constant f does not exist for the variab...

The linear shallow water equations on the sphere are discretized on a quasi-uniform, geodesic, icosahedral Voronoi-Delaunay grid with a C-grid variable arrangement and semi-implicit time discretization. A finite volume discretization is employed for the continuity equation in conservation law form, using as control volumes either the hexagonal/pentagonal or the dual triangular cells. A geostrop...

In machine learning, whether one can build a more accurate classifier by using unlabeled data (semi-supervised learning) is an important issue. Although a number of semi-supervised methods have been proposed, their effectiveness on NLP tasks is not always clear. This paper presents a novel semi-supervised method that employs a learning paradigm which we call structural learning. The idea is to ...
