Efficient tidal dissipation in Deimos

Icarus, 2020
Abstract After its formation Deimos, Mars' second and outer satellite, is expected to have been catastrophically disrupted, possibly multiple times, by planetesimals left over from primary terrestrial planet accretion. The expected last time such a disruption occurred is ca. 4.3 Gyr ago.

Tidal Propagation and Dissipation in the Taiwan Strait

Continental Shelf Research, 2017
Abstract Previous research on tides and tidal dynamics in the Taiwan Strait (TS) is reviewed in this paper. Tidal dynamics, which is the basic and dominant hydrodynamics in this area, attracts much interest in the last 30 years and till now its physical mechanism is still in debate.

Tidal Dissipation in Oceans on Titan

Icarus, 1995
Titan's large free eccentricity results in significant tidal dissipation. This can be used to constrain the existence and depth of hydrocarbon oceans. A hydrodynamical-numerical 2 deg ocean tide model has been constructed to investigate this connection. The model allows some simple land configurations.

Tidal dissipation and stratification in the Gulf of California

Journal of Geophysical Research: Oceans, 1995
The effect of tidal mixing upon the distribution of stratification and sea surface temperature (SST) in the Gulf of California is studied by direct observation and by numerical modeling. Data from conductivity‐temperature‐depth surveys made in September and December of 1986 are used to describe the distribution of stratification and SST.

Energy dissipation in a tidal estuary

Journal of Geophysical Research, 1969
The extent and mechanism of the dissipation of tidal energy were studied for Coos Bay, a coastal plain estuary located on the central Oregon coast. The energy required to provide the observed mixing and increase in potential energy has been compared with the energy lost through tidal damping.

Tidal dissipation in the oceans of icy satellites

Icarus, 2014
Abstract Dissipation of tidal energy is an important mechanism for the evolution of outer Solar System satellites, several of which are likely to contain subsurface oceans. We extend previous theoretical treatments for ocean tidal dissipation by taking into account the effects of ocean loading, self-attraction, and deformation of the solid regions ...

Tidal Dissipation in the System WASP-46

Journal of Experimental and Theoretical Physics, 2018
The change in the orbital period of the system WASP-46 due to quasi-static and dynamical tidal interactions is investigated. Various dissipation mechanisms are studied. In the case of quasi-static tides, dissipation is assumed to occur due to turbulent viscosity, while in the case of dynamical tides, two limiting cases are considered: the regime of ...

Dissipation of energy through tidal deformation

Astrophysics and Space Science, 1974
The aim of the present paper will be to derive an equation of dissipation of energy for a rotating body of arbitrary viscosity distorted by tides, which arise from the gravitational field of its companion in a close pair of such bodies. By a transformation of the fundamental equation of energy dissipation in terms of velocity of tidal deformation ...
