Aircraft Wake Vortex Decay in Ground Proximity : Physical Mechanisms and Artificial Enhancement [PDF]
, 2012 Aircraft wake vortex evolution in ground proximity is investigated numerically with large eddy simulations (LES). The simulations are performed with different modifications of the ground surface in order to trigger rapid vortex decay or to simulate the ...

A Site Amplification Model for Crustal Earthquakes
Geosciences, 2018 A global dataset which is composed of more than 20,000 records is used to develop an empirical nonlinear soil amplification model for crustal earthquakes. The model also includes the deep soil effect. The soil nonlinearity is formulated in terms of input
