ENERGY DISSIPATION IN TIDAL ESTUARIES

open access: yesCoastal Engineering Proceedings, 1976
In this study, the method for damped co-oscillating tides is used to evaluate damping and energy dissipation characteristics for various estuaries of different geometry and depth. Of special interest are the damping and energy dissipation characteristics of the German tidal rivers such as Elbe, Weser and Ems in comparison with North-American tidal ...

Anelastic Tidal Dissipation in Multi-Layer Planets [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the International Astronomical Union, 2012
AbstractEarth-like planets have anelastic mantles, whereas giant planets may have anelastic cores. As for the fluid parts, the tidal dissipation of these regions, gravitationally perturbed by a companion, highly depends on its internal friction and thus its internal structure.

Tidal Evolution of Close-in Planets [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Recent discoveries of several transiting planets with clearly non-zero eccentricities and some large inclinations started changing the simple picture of close-in planets having circular and well-aligned orbits.

Tidal Dissipation in Rotating Solar‐Type Stars [PDF]

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2007
We calculate the excitation and dissipation of low-frequency tidal oscillations in uniformly rotating solar-type stars. For tidal frequencies smaller than twice the spin frequency, inertial waves are excited in the convective envelope and are dissipated by turbulent viscosity. Enhanced dissipation occurs over the entire frequency range rather than in a

Tidal dissipation in stars and fluid planetary layers and its impact on the evolution of star-planet systems

open access: yesEPJ Web of Conferences, 2015
Tidal dissipation in stars and planets is one of the key physical mechanisms that drive the evolution of planetary systems. It intrinsically depends on the nature of the tidal response of celestial bodies, which is directly linked to their internal ...

Tidal dissipation and the formation of Kepler near-resonant planets [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Multi-planetary systems detected by the Kepler mission present an excess of planets close to first-order mean-motion resonances (2:1 and 3:2) but with a period ratio slightly higher than the resonant value.

Is tidal heating sufficient to explain bloated exoplanets? Consistent calculations accounting for finite initial eccentricity

open access: yes, 2010
In this paper, we present the consistent evolution of short-period exoplanets coupling the tidal and gravothermal evolution of the planet. Contrarily to previous similar studies, our calculations are based on the complete tidal evolution equations of the

Thin-shell Tidal Dynamics of Ocean Worlds

open access: yesThe Planetary Science Journal, 2023
Several solar system moons harbor subsurface water oceans; extreme internal heating or solar irradiation can form magma oceans in terrestrial bodies. Tidal forces drive ocean currents, producing tidal heating that affects the thermal−orbital evolution of

Resonance breaking due to dissipation in planar planetary systems [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
We study the evolution of two planets around a star, in mean-motion resonance and undergoing tidal effect. We derive an integrable analytical model of mean-motion resonances of any order which reproduce the main features of the resonant dynamics.

Tidal dissipation in binary systems [PDF]

open access: yesEAS Publications Series, 2008
To first approximation, a binary system conserves its angular momentum while it evolves to its state of minimum kinetic energy: circular orbit, all spins aligned, and components rotating in synchronism with the orbital motion. The pace at which this final state is achieved depends on the physical processes that are responsible for the dissipation of ...
