Wave dissipation by flexible vegetation [PDF]
, 2011 Dissipation of waves propagating through natural salt marsh vegetation was about half the dissipation expected for rigid vegetation. This low dissipation was predicted by a theoretical model that accounts for bending of vegetation by wave motions.

Global patterns of diapycnal mixing from measurements of the turbulent dissipation rate [PDF]
, 2014 The authors present inferences of diapycnal diffusivity from a compilation of over 5200 microstructure profiles. As microstructure observations are sparse, these are supplemented with indirect measurements of mixing obtained from (i) Thorpe-scale ...

Energy Dissipated in Fatigue and Creep Conditions [PDF]
Materials, 2021 The paper presents the results of tests performed on samples made of P91 steel under combined variable and constant load conditions, at temperature T = 600 °C. The analysis of the test results was carried out with the use of the energetic description of the fatigue process.

Dissipation as a mechanism of energy gain [PDF]
Physical Review E, 2008 Some properties of the annular billiard under the presence of weak dissipation are studied. We show, in a dissipative system, that the average energy of a particle acquires higher values than its average energy of the conservative case. The creation of attractors, associated with a chaotic dynamics in the conservative regime, both in appropriated ...

Analysis of the energy dissipation characteristics of a nonlinear vehicle suspension system
, 2022 This paper focuses on the effect of nonlinearities on the energy dissipation capability of a vehicle suspension system. The effect of the nonlinear parameters of interest, on the energy dissipation characteristics of the suspension system, was ...

Heating of the low-latitude solar wind by dissipation of turbulent magnetic fluctuations [PDF]
, 2001 We test a theory presented previously to account for the turbulent transport of magnetic fluctuation energy in the solar wind and the related dissipation and heating of the ambient ion population. This theory accounts for the injection of magnetic energy

Vanishing enstrophy dissipation in two-dimensional Navier--Stokes turbulence in the inviscid limit [PDF]
, 2006 Batchelor (Phys. Fluids, vol. 12, 1969, p. 233) developed a theory of two-dimensional turbulence based on the assumption that the dissipation of enstrophy (mean-square vorticity) tends to a finite non-zero constant in the limit of infinite Reynolds ...

Constraining an eddy energy dissipation rate due to relative wind stress for use in energy budget-based eddy parameterisations [PDF]
Ocean Science, 2023 A geostrophic eddy energy dissipation rate due to the interaction of the large-scale wind field and mesoscale ocean currents, or relative wind stress, is derived here for use in eddy energy budget-based eddy parameterisations.

Eddy-Induced Modulation of Turbulent Dissipation over Rough Topography in the Southern Ocean [PDF]
, 2013 Mesoscale eddies are universal features of the ocean circulation, yet the processes by which their energy is dissipated remain poorly understood. One hypothesis argues that the interaction of strong geostrophic flows with rough bottom topography effects ...

Number of degrees of freedom and energy spectrum of surface quasi-geostrophic turbulence [PDF]
, 2011 L.A.K.B. was supported by an EPSRC post-graduate studentship.We study both theoretically and numerically surface quasi-geostrophic turbulence regularized by the usual molecular viscosity, with an emphasis on a number of classical predictions. It is found
