  • Precession, Nutation and Wobble of the Earth

    by V. Dehant, P. M. Mathews ...
    Covering both astronomical and geophysical perspectives, this book describes changes in the Earth's orientation, specifically precession and nutation, and how they are observed and computed in terms of tidal forcing and models of the Earth's interior. Following an introduction to key concepts and elementary geodetic theory, the book describes how precise measurements of the Earth's orientation are ... Read more

  • Coupled DEM-CFD Analyses of Landslide-Induced Debris Flows

    by Tao Zhao ...
    Series series Engineering (R0)
    This book reflects the latest research results in computer modelling of landslide-induced debris flows. The book establishes an understanding of the initiation and propagation mechanisms of landslides by means of numerical simulations, so that mitigation strategies to reduce the long-term losses from landslide hazards can be devised.In this context, the book employs the Discrete Element Method ...

  • Thermospheric Density and Wind Determination from Satellite Dynamics

    by Eelco Doornbos ...
    Series series Earth and Environmental Science (R0)
    The Earth's atmosphere is often portrayed as a thin and finite blanket covering our planet, separate from the emptiness of outer space. In reality, the transition is gradual and a tiny fraction of the atmophere gases is still present at the altitude of low orbiting satellites. The very high velocities of these satellites ensure that their orbital motion can still be considerably affected by air ... Read more

  • Sand Control in Well Construction and Operation

    by Davorin Matanovic, Marin Cikes, Bojan Moslavac ...
    Series series Earth and Environmental Science (R0)
    Produced sand causes a lot of problems. From that reasons sand production must be monitored and kept within acceptable limits. Sand control problems in wells result from improper completion techniques or changes in reservoir properties.The idea is to provide support to the formation to prevent movement under stresses resulting from fluid flow from reservoir to well bore. That means that sand ... Read more

  • Navier-Stokes-Fourier Equations

    A Rational Asymptotic Modelling Point of View

    by Radyadour Kh. Zeytounian ...
    Series series Engineering (R0)
    This research monograph deals with a modeling theory of the system of Navier-Stokes-Fourier equations for a Newtonian fluid governing a compressible viscous and heat conducting flows. The main objective is threefold. First , to 'deconstruct' this Navier-Stokes-Fourier system in order to unify the puzzle of the various partial simplified approximate models used in Newtonian Classical Fluid Dynamics ... Read more

    by Pranab Kumar Parua ...
    Series series Earth and Environmental Science (R0)
    From time immemorial the Bengal Delta had been an important maritime des- nation for traders from all parts of the world. The actual location of the port of call varied from time to time in line with the natural hydrographic changes. From the early decades of the second millennium AD, traders from the European con- nent also joined the traders from the Arab countries, who had been the Forerunners ... Read more

  • Physical Soil Mechanics

    by Gerd Gudehus ...
    Series series Earth and Environmental Science (R0)
    Soil is matter in its own right. Its nature can be captured by means of monotonous, cyclic and strange attractors. Thus material properties are defined by the asymptotic response of sand- and clay-like samples to imposed deformations and stresses. This serves to validate and calibrate elastoplastic and hypoplastic relations with comparative plots. Extensions capture thermal and seismic activations ... Read more
