Modeling, analysis, and experimental validation of a swash plate compressor for automotive air conditioning [PDF]

Scientific Reports
This paper presents a comprehensive study of a swash plate compressor, integrating both theoretical modeling and experimental validation. A mathematical model is developed to precisely describe the swash plate’s motion and to derive the average power ...

STRAND: A Model for Longshore Sediment Transport in the Swash Zone [PDF]

Coastal Engineering 2000, 2000
In this paper we report on the development and performance of an engineering model, STRAND which has the aim of predicting longshore movement of coarse sediment above the still water line of steep beaches.

Recent advances in modeling swash zone dynamics: Influence of surf‐swash interaction on nearshore hydrodynamics and morphodynamics [PDF]

Reviews of Geophysics, 2008
The role of the swash zone in influencing the whole nearshore dynamics is reviewed with a focus on the interaction between surf and swash zone processes. Local and global hydromorphodynamic phenomena are discussed in detail, and a description of the overall swash zone operation is given.

Multisensory Integration Dominates Hypnotisability and Expectations in the Rubber Hand Illusion [PDF]

Frontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2022
Some recent papers by P. Lush and colleagues have argued that the rubber hand illusion (RHI), where participants can feel a rubber hand as their own under appropriate multisensory stimulation, may be caused mainly by hypnotic suggestibility and ...

An Investigation on the Ball Screw-Based Variable Displacement Mechanism for Axial Piston Pumps with Feedforward Differential Input Control [PDF]

Sensors
This paper proposes a variable mechanism structure based on a ball screw design for precise displacement control in axial piston pumps, with the objective of improving actuator position and velocity control within the displacement-controlled (DC) systems.

Eulerian flow velocities in the swash zone: Field data and model predictions [PDF]

Journal of Geophysical Research, 2004
Measurements of Eulerian flow velocity obtained within the swash zone on a relatively steep beach face (gradient 1:23) are compared with an extended ballistic swash model.

Hydrodynamics and Sediment Transport Under Solitary Waves in the Swash Zone

Journal of Marine Science and Engineering
Swash–swash interaction is a common natural phenomenon in the nearshore region, characterized by complex fluid motion. The characteristics of swash–swash interaction are crucial to sediment transport, subsequently affecting the beach morphology.

A review of practical models of sand transport in the swash zone

Earth-Science Reviews, 2023
The swash zone largely influences nearshore hydrodynamics and morphodynamics through dissipating or reflecting wave energy and controlling whether sediment will be stored on the upper beach or returned to the inner surf zone. It is a region where active beach accretion and erosion occur and beach protection measures such as sand nourishments are often ...

Rising sea levels and the increase of shoreline wave energy at American Samoa [PDF]

Scientific Reports
American Samoa is experiencing rapid relative sea level rise due to increases in global sea level and significant post-2009 earthquake land subsidence, endangering homes and critical infrastructure.
