  • Waves and Tides the Preceding Sections Have Dealt with the Types Of
    CHAPTER XIV Waves and Tides .......................................................................................................... Introduction The preceding sections have dealt with the types of motion in the ocean that bring about transport of water massesin a definite direction during a considerable length of time. They have also dealt with the random motion, the turbulence, which is superimposed upon the general flow. Besidesthese types, one has also to consider the oscillating motion characteristic of waves. In general, this motion manifests itself to the observer more by the riseand fall of the sea surface than by the motion of the individual water particles. Waves have attracted attention since before the beginning of recorded history, and in recent years they have been the subject of extensive theoretical studies. Surveys of our knowledge as to the character of ocean waves have been presented by Cornish (1912, 1934), Krtimmel (1911), Patton and Mariner (1932) and by Defant (1929). Lamb (1932) has discussed the hydrodynamic theories of waves, and Thorade (1931) has given a comprehensive review of the theoretical studies of ocean waves and has compiled a long list of literature covering the period from 1687 to 1930. Our understanding of the waves of the ocean, how they are formed and how they travel, is as yet by no means complete. The reason is, in the first place, that actual observations at sea are so difficult that the characteristicsof the waves cannot easily be determined. In the second place, the theories that serve to bring the observed sequence of events in nature into intimate connection with experience gained by other methods of study are still incomplete, particularly because most theories are based on classicalhydrodynamics, which deal with wave motion in an idealized fluid.

However, there are gaps in the necessary data and poor access or dissemination of existing data in many countries around the world. This research identifies how remote sensing can contribute to filling these gaps so that environmental agencies, such as the United Nations Environmental Programme, European Environmental Agency, and International Union for Conservation of Nature, can better implement environmental directives in a cost-effective manner. Remote sensing (RS) techniques generally allow for uniform data collection, with common acquisition and reporting methods, across large areas. Furthermore, these datasets are sometimes open-source, mainly when governments finance satellite missions.

In total, 375 paired sampling points and 70 transects were taken to compare the SST upstream and downstream of the bridge, and nine transects were taken to compare the SSC. The results show the following. (i) In summer, when the current flows through the bridge pier, the downstream SST of the bridge decreases significantly, with a range of 3.5%; in winter, generally, the downstream SST decreases but does not change as obviously as in summer. The downstream SSC increases obviously. (ii) The range of influence of the bridge pier on the downstream SST is about 0.3–4.0 km in width from the bridge and that on the downstream SSC is approximately 0.3–6.0 km.

NorVision, as it was called, is a key advisory document, which has strongly influenced territorial cooperation in the North Sea Region. It describes the existing state of spatial development and suggests directions for the future. Projects that have been developed under INTERREG IIIB NSR put many of them into practice In mid 2004 the Programme Monitoring Committee for the Interreg IIIB North Sea Programme decided that there should be a selective update to NorVision to have valuable strategic input for the future cooperation in North Sea Region. They agreed that the original NorVision document continues to be relevant and should not be evaluated or reworked. The new spatial agenda, as is has become known, should focus on issues, which have become more urgent or important in recent years or which have not been thoroughly addressed in the original document.

  • Dry Active Matter Exhibits a Self-Organized'cross Sea'phase
    Dry Active Matter exhibits a self-organized “Cross Sea” Phase Rüdiger Kürsten and Thomas Ihle Institut für Physik, Universität Greifswald, Felix-Hausdorff-Str. 6, 17489 Greifswald, Germany (Dated: February 8, 2020) The Vicsek model of self-propelled particles is known in three different phases: (i) a polar ordered homogeneous phase also called Toner-Tu phase, (iii) a phase of polar ordered regularly arranged high density bands (waves) with surrounding low density regions without polar order and (iv) a homogeneous phase without polar order. It has been questioned whether the band phase (iii) should be divided into two parts [1]: one with periodically arranged and one with strongly interacting but not ordered bands. We answer this question by showing that the standard Vicsek model has a fourth phase for large system sizes: (ii) a polar ordered cross sea phase. Close to the transition towards (i) this phase becomes unstable and looks like strongly interacting bands. We demonstrate that the cross sea phase is not just a superposition of two waves, but it is an independent complex pattern. Furthermore we show that there is a non-zero mass flow through the structure of the cross sea pattern within its co-moving frame. PACS numbers: 05.65+b, 45.70.Qj, 64.60.De, 64.60.Ej Active matter is characterized by the transformation of interact at discrete instances of time n∆t and remain free energy into directed motion. The energy is supplied constant between those collisions. The interactions are e.g. by chemicals (or food), external fields or radiation. given by the following rule On the other hand, active particles dissipate energy into " # their environment such that there is an interplay between X cos θj(t) energy supply and dissipation.

    CORE Metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk Provided by Universitas Narotama Surabaya (UNNAR): Journals Volume 03 Number 01 September 2019 REDESIGN OF CORE GROYNE USING NATURAL MATERIALS Maulida Amalia Rizki Civil Engineering Faculty Narotama University Surabaya Jl. Arif Rahman Hakim 51 Surabaya [email protected] ABSTRACT Coastal abrasion is one of the serious problems with shoreline change. In addition to natural processes, such as wind, currents and waves. One method for overcoming coastal abrasion is the use of coastal protective structures, where the structure functions as a wave energy damper at a particular location. Coastal buildings are used to protect the beach against damage due to wave and current attacks. Groyne is a coastal safety structure that is built protrudes relatively perpendicular to the direction of the coast, the importance of built coastal security with a groyne structure on the Jetis beach is as a flood control infrastructure that is as a final disposal of floods in the Ijo Watershed system, addressing coastal abrasion in detail. So we get the design drawings of sediment control buildings to reduce sedimentation / siltation from the direction of the sea into the river mouth, material structure costs and time schedule. Keywords: Abrasion, Groin, Material, Cost, Time Schedule. INTRODUCTION Research Background The problem at the Jetis beach is a estuary sedimentation, so that the flood discharge and economic activities of the people who use the river estuary channel as their fishing boat route are disrupted. Jetty or Groin which was built for the purpose of protecting the channel protrudes towards the sea to a distance of 300 m, with such conditions the river mouth is expected to get optimal protection.
