Humans, geometric similarity and the Froude number: is ‘‘reasonably close’’ really close enough? [PDF]
Biology Open, 2012 Summary Understanding locomotor energetics is imperative, because energy expended during locomotion, a requisite feature of primate subsistence, is lost to reproduction.

Large eddy simulation on the wake characteristics of linearly stratified flow past a sphere [PDF]
Scientific ReportsIn this study, Large Eddy Simulation (LES) has been employed to examine the influence of the Froude number (Fr) on the linearly stratified wake and internal waves behind a sphere at a subcritical Reynolds number of Re = 3700.

Vortex ring refraction at large Froude numbers [PDF]
Physical Review E, 2010 We have experimentally studied the impact of an initially planar axisymmetric vortex ring, incident at an oblique angle, upon a gravity-induced interface separating two fluids of differing densities. After impact, the vortex ring was found to exhibit a variety of subsequent trajectories, which we organize according to both the incidence angle, $θ_i ...

A Novel Efficient Method of Estimating Suspended‐To‐Total Sediment Load Fraction in Natural Rivers
Water Resources Research, 2023 Sediment transport load monitoring is important in civil and environmental engineering fields. Monitoring the total load is difficult, especially because of the cost of the bed load transport measurement.
