Pressure Characteristics and Cavitation on an Oscillating Hydrofoil
Journal of the Society of Naval Architects of Japan, 1972 Unsteady cavitation that results from the non-uniformity of the flow field renders evil influences on marine propellers. It has been a general experiment for the investigation on such problems to observe unsteady cavitation in a flow field analogous to a wake pattern.

Ship waves in rivers: Environmental criteria and analysis methods for measurements
River Research and Applications, Volume 39, Issue 4, Page 629-647, May 2023., 2023 Abstract A literature review shows that the most important physical quantities determining environmental impact of ship waves in a waterway are the fluid velocities, maximum and minimum water levels, and size of drawdown events. Fluid velocity can vary strongly in the vertical so that the usual measurements at a single point are not enough unless made ...

Lake dynamics in an Early Jurassic desert: Evidence from the Clarens Formation in southern Africa
Sedimentology, Volume 70, Issue 3, Page 865-894, April 2023., 2023 ABSTRACT Interdune deposits are sensitive to climatic fluctuations and ancient interdune lacustrine systems can reveal the drivers of erg dynamics through time and space. This southern African study details the dynamics of interdune deposition in a vast ancient desert system that was active over Pangaea in the Middle Mesozoic and formed part of one of ...

Observations of Oscillating Cavitation on a Flat Plate Hydrofoil.
JSME International Journal Series B, 1999 An experimental investigation was made to clarify the characteristics of oscillating cavitation on a flat plate hydrofoil in a water tunnel. Dynamic the behavior of oscillating cavitation is discussed from the unsteady pressure measurements at the upstream of the blade and the visual observations of cavitation phenomena using high-speed video ...
