Abstract:
The reflection of internal gravity waves at sloping boundaries leads to focusing or defocusing. In closed domains, focusing typically dominates and projects the wave energy onto ‘wave attractors’. For small-amplitude internal waves, the projection of energy onto higher wavenumbers by geometric focusing can be balanced by viscous dissipation at high wavenumbers. Contrary to what was previously suggested, viscous dissipation in interior shear layers may not be sufficient to explain the experiments on wave attractors in the classical quasi-two-dimensional trapezoidal laboratory set-ups.

Abstract:
It is known that a quasi-rigid-body mode (QR mode) exists in hard disk drives (HDDs) in the frequency range from 3 to 5 kHz and that it is caused by the flexibility of the pivot and the mass and structure of the head actuator assembly (HAA). This mode hinders performance improvement of the servo system in this bandwidth and thus limits the area density growth of HDDs. In this paper, a novel tuned damping device is proposed to suppress the QR mode and to reduce the residual vibration in head positioning in order to improve the servo system performance. The damping device is to be installed on t

Abstract:
We study, both theoretically and numerically, the equilibrium of a hinged rigid leaflet with an attached rotational spring, immersed in a stationary incompressible fluid within a rigid channel. Through a careful investigation of the properties of the domain functional describing the angular momentum exerted by the fluid on the leaflet (which depends on both the leaflet angular position and its thickness), we identify sufficient conditions on the spring stiffness function for the existence (and uniqueness) of equilibrium positions. This study resorts to techniques from shape differential calcul

Abstract. An experimental study on the instability of a detached Stewartson layer, using an annular, rotating tank with flat, rigid upper and lower boundaries, showed an instability to steady vortices at a critical Reynolds number, arranged in a global mode structure along the shear layer. Increasing the Reynolds number resulted in successive transitions to lower modes where time-dependent behaviour was only found for flows with three or less vortices.

Abstract:
The effects of dynamic soil–structure interaction (SSI) have been extensively studied in the last few decades, and proper analysis for the linear elastic case in frequency domain has been established successfully. However, SSI is rarely considered in the design of building structures, and instead, buildings are frequently analyzed using a rigid base assumption and quasi-static loading conditions that ignore SSI and its dynamic nature. Acknowledging these shortcomings, the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) published in 2012 a set of recommendations on time-domain analyses of

In this study we give a characterization of semi-geostrophic turbulence by performing freely decaying simulations for the case of constant uniform potential vorticity, a set of equations known as the surface semi-geostrophic approximation. The equations are formulated as conservation laws for potential temperature and potential vorticity, with a nonlinear Monge–Ampère type inversion equation for the streamfunction, expressed in a transformed coordinate system that follows the geostrophic flow. We perform model studies of turbulent surface semi-geostrophic flows in a domain doubly periodic in t

Abstract. The disruptive potential of floating wind turbines has attracted the interest of both the industry and the scientific community. Lacking a rigid foundation, such machines are subject to large displacements whose impact on aerodynamic performance is not yet fully explored. In this work, the unsteady aerodynamic response to harmonic-surge motion of a scaled version of the DTU 10 MW turbine is investigated in detail. The imposed displacements have been chosen representative of typical platform motion. The results of different numerical models are validated against high-fidelity wind tun

Abstract:
The linear boundary value problem for the wave dynamics inside a tank is very similar to the solution for the outer hull. Because of this, the boundary value solver for the outer hull can be re-used for the tank. The oscillating hydrostatic pressure in the tank may also be calculated in the same way as for the outer hull. Thereby, the hydrostatic coefficients from the tank can also be obtained from the outer solution. This makes it, in principle, easy to adapt outer solution computer code to also account for the inner solutions for all the tanks. The procedure is discussed by Newman (2005). We

Abstract Self-elevating units (SEUs), with a water-tight hull fitted with long support legs and spudcans, are widely used in offshore drilling and operations, as well as offshore wind turbine installations. SEUs are also known as jack-up rigs. A jack-up rig undergoes several stages of operations involving different leg configurations, such as legs retracted, legs suspended in the water, spudcans pre-loaded into the soil, and legs deployed in the seabed with the hull lifted clear above water. The hull and the legs will therefore be subjected to various external environmental actions. Transit op
