Abstract:
Neural field theory of the corticothalamic system is used to analyze nonlinear wave-wave interactions in sleep and wake states and steady state visual evoked potential responses. The nonlinear power spectrum is analytically calculated by convolving the linear power spectrum with itself and other factors. Analysis shows that strong spectral peaks generate a harmonic at twice the original frequency with peak power proportional to the square of that of the original peak. Periodic sine and square wave stimuli are used to generate steady state visual evoked potential responses and to study stimulus

Abstract:
Internal waves are prominent fluid phenomena in both the atmosphere and ocean. Because internal waves have the ability to transfer a large amount of energy, they contribute to the global distribution of energy. This causes internal waves to influence global climate patterns and critical ocean mixing. Therefore, studying internal waves provides additional insight in how to model geophysical phenomena that directly impact our lives. There is a myriad of fluid phenomena with which internal waves can interact, including other internal waves. Equipment and processes are developed to perform laborat

Abstract:
Wave blocking in river inlets is examined using the NHWAVE (Non-Hydrostatic Wave) model under development. Blocking flows at river inlets are a significant hazard to navigation. Refractive and shoaling effects contribute to the enhancement of wave field energy, causing instabilities and breaking, resulting in energy dissipation and transfer at the blocking point. The non-linearity of wave-current interactions and wave breaking makes the dynamics of blocking flows difficult to model. Current efforts to use wave-averaged models are insufficient to describe the complex dynamics that occur within

Ocean wind waves represent the atmosphere-ocean boundary, playing a central role in the air-sea exchanging processes. Heat, mass and momentum are transferred across this boundary, with waves mediating the exchange of principally the momentum between the winds and the ocean surface. During the generation process waves are called wind sea. When they leave their generation area or outrun their generating wind they are called swell. The wave field can be said to be dominated either by wind sea or swell. Depending on the wave regime the momentum and energy exchanging processes and the degree of cou

The use of ultrasonic reflectometry is a proven method of condition monitoring machine systems. The working principles are simple. A burst of ultrasonic signal is sent to the interface of interest where reflection of the signal takes place. The manner in which reflection takes place depends on the properties of the interface. As such, the reflected signal carries information regarding the interface that can be extracted with proper techniques. However, the use of ultrasonic reflectometry in condition monitoring is not without its limitations. Conventional ultrasound techniques make use of ultr

At such close proximity to their parent stars, strong tidal interactions between the two bodies are expected to cause significant secular spin-orbit evolution.

Wind/wave interactions in the surf zone are studied using a wave tank and environmental wind tunnel. The wind simulation is achieved over a relatively short fetch using accelerated growth techniques at a scale of roughly 1:100. Waves are scaled at approximately 1:50, and consequently there is some scaling mis-match between the wind and wave simulations. Results show that wind has a significant effect on the breaking of the waves. Both breaker location and breaker type are shown to be affected by the wind. Results are in agreement with those of Douglass (1989 & 1990), who used a wind/wave flume

Waves, which arise when restoring forces act on small perturbations, are ubiquitous in fluids. Their counterpart, mean flows, capture the remainder of the motion and are often characterised by a slower evolution and larger scale patterns. Waves and mean flows, which are typically separated by time- or space-averaging, interact, and this interaction is central to many fluid-dynamical phenomena. Wave-mean flow interactions can be classified into dissipative interactions and non-dissipative interactions. The former is important for small-scale flows, the latter for large-scale flows.
