Tidal dissipation in Europa: A correction [PDF]

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 1980
The possibility that tidal dissipation in a thin ice crust was sufficient to preserve liquid water on Jupiter's satellite Europa was suggested by Cassen et al. [1979]. However, their calculation of the tidal heating rate for that situation is in error.

Dispersion processes in weakly dissipative tidal channels

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Oceans, 2021
We report the results of an extensive experimental campaign dedicated to the analysis of turbulent dispersion owing to the circulations in tidal environments, characterized by a tidal inlet and a channel with lateral tidal flats. We focus on weakly-convergent and weakly-dissipative estuaries or tidal embankments, where the internal waters communicate ...

Tidal Dissipation in Rotating Giant Planets

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2004
[Abridged] Tides may play an important role in determining the observed distributions of mass, orbital period, and eccentricity of the extrasolar planets. In addition, tidal interactions between giant planets in the solar system and their moons are thought to be responsible for the orbital migration of the satellites, leading to their capture into ...

Tidal Dissipation in WASP-12 [PDF]

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2017
Abstract WASP-12 is a hot Jupiter system with an orbital period of P = 1.1 days, making it one of the shortest-period giant planets known. Recent transit timing observations by Maciejewski et al. and Patra et al. found a decreasing period with  = 3.2 Myr.

Tidal Dissipation in Stars and Giant Planets [PDF]

open access: yesAnnual Review of Astronomy and Astrophysics, 2014
Astrophysical fluid bodies that orbit close to one another induce tidal distortions and flows that are subject to dissipative processes. The spin and orbital motions undergo a coupled evolution over astronomical timescales, which is relevant for many types of binary star, short-period extrasolar planetary systems, and the satellites of the giant ...

Energy dissipation in a tidal estuary [PDF]

open access: yes
The extent and mechanism of energy dissipation has been studied in Coos Bay, a coastal plain estuary. Coos Bay is located on the central Oregon coast, 184 nautical miles south of Astoria, Oregon, and 35 nautical miles north of Cape Blanco.

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

Synchronization‐Dissipation in the Cardiorespiratory System

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
By modeling central nervous coupling and viscoelastic interactions in the cardiorespiratory system we show that synchronization produces a 10% gain in cardiac efficiency in humans. It is surmised that respiratory sinus arrhythmia improves cardiac pumping efficiency by reducing dynamic stress and power dissipation in the pulmonary vasculature.
