The drag coefficient is essential for calculating the aerodynamic friction between air and sea. In this study, we regress a set of relationships between the drag coefficient and the wind speed for different wind ranges using an observational dataset that

A parameterization of the ice‐ocean drag coefficient [PDF]
A parameterization of the ice‐ocean drag coefficient (Cw) was developed through partitioning the oceanic drag force into three components: (1) form drag on the floe edge, (2) form drag on the ridge keel, and (3) skin friction on the ice bottom.

Bottom drag coefficient is one of the key parameters in quantifying shelf hydrodynamics and sediment transport processes. It varies markedly due to dynamic forcing and bed type differences, so a set of empirical values have been used for beds of coarse ...

DRAG COEFFICIENT OF VEGETATION IN FLOW MODELING [PDF]
Flow through vegetation has a significant impact on sediment transport and ecosystem robustness in the coastal and fluvial environment. Numerical models (Nepf and Vivoni, 2000; Uittenbogaaard, 2003) have been developed to simulate this type of flow. The success of these models depends on proper characterization of the main processes and appropriate ...

This study aimed to estimate the drag and lift coefficients of the long-span bridge pylon using the finite volume method (FVM). The k-ω turbulence model was applied to analyze the behavior of wind flow around the pylon, yielding drag and lift coefficient

Drag coefficient of vertically moving popcorns [PDF]
To take the students attention in physics lectures is always a challenge. The projectile motion is not an exception. Then, study of popcorn motion can be a way to introduce and motivate the students in this subject.

Wings have a function of changing the air flowing into force lift, and drag. It can reduce the drag is fairing flap track, where its function can reduce the obstacles caused by the effects of compressibility, fairing flap track also has a major influence
