Recent work by our research group has shown that wave damping can have a surprisingly strong effect on the evolution of waves in deep water, even when the damping is weak. Whether damping is or is not included in a theoretical model can change the outcome in terms of both stability of wave patterns and frequency downshifting. It is conceivable that it might affect the early development of rogue...

scattering of an incoming wave train by a discontinuity at the upper surface of the ocean over a uniform porous bottom of finite depth is considered here in the framework of linearized water wave theory. by employing residue calculus method, the reflection and transmission coefficient are obtained. these coefficients are computed numerically for different values of the porosity parameter g and ...

background: due to the increasing pollution of water resources, this study was carried out for evaluation of water quality pollution indices for monitoring of heavy metals (as, zn, pb and cu) contamination in ghahavand plain, hamadan province, western iran during spring and summer 2012. methods: totally, 20 ground water wells were chosen randomly. the samples were filtered (0.45 μm) and maintai...

Solitary wave solutions to the Broer-Kaup equations and approximate long water wave equations are considered challenging by using the rst integral method.The exact solutions obtained during the present investigation are new. This method can be applied to nonintegrable equations as well as to integrable ones.

A~tract--The theory of group velocity is generalized to waves on curved surfaces, and applied to calculating the effect of the earth's rotation on the trajectory and wave vector of a wave packet whose waves have lengths much less than the radius of the earth and periods much less than one day. A geometrical description of the perturbed trajectory is given. If /2 is the angular velocity of the e...

Topological concepts have been introduced into electronic, photonic, and phononic systems, but have not been studied in surface-water-wave systems. Here we study a one-dimensional periodic resonant surface-water-wave system and demonstrate its topological transition. By selecting three different water depths, we can construct different types of water waves - shallow, intermediate and deep water...

Wind, wave and current interactions control the boundary fluxes, momentum and energy exchange between the atmosphere and the ocean, and within the water column. The wind wave effect on surface stress is investigated using a three-dimensional time-dependant ocean circulation model. The POM (Princeton Ocean Model) based model is implemented with realistic coastlines in South China Sea and emphasi...

background: this study was planned to examine the effects of whole-body exposure to gsm-950 mhz electromagnetic fields (emfs) on acquisition and consolidation of spatial memory in rats using a water maze task. materials and methods: in experiment 1, the animals were given two blocks of five trials per day for three consecutive days in a water maze task. the interval between blocks was 4h. befor...
