IMPACT PRESSURES PRODUCED BY BREAKING WAVES
Experiments were conducted in a vacuum tank in order to investigate the effect which entrained air has on impact loads which are produced when waves break upon a structure. In these experiments a flat plate was dropped onto a still water surface in an environment where the ambient pressure of the surrounding air could be controlled.

A Comparative Study on Violent Sloshing with Complex Baffles Using the ISPH Method
The Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics (SPH) method has become one of the most promising methods for violent wave impact simulations. In this paper, the incompressible SPH (ISPH) method will be used to simulate liquid sloshing in a 2D tank with complex ...

Field Measurements of Impact Pressures in Surf
Field measurements were made of the vertical distribution of impact pressures exerted by breaking waves. Four distinct types are recognized and compared. These are near-breaking wave, plunging breaker, spilling breaker and post-breaking bore. The measurements were obtained by placing a 6 foot aluminum flat plate, backed by a cylinder in the surf zone ...

Conscious monitoring and control (reinvestment) in surgical performance under pressure. [PDF]
Research on intraoperative stressors has focused on external factors without considering individual differences in the ability to cope with stress. One individual difference that is implicated in adverse effects of stress on performance is "reinvestment,"
