Dynamics of the head of gravity currents

Mário Jorge Rodrigues Pereira Da Franca, Helena Isabel Dos Santos Nogueira, Claudia Adduce

The present work experimentally investigates the dynamics of unsteady gravity currents produced by lock-release of a saline mixture into a fresh water tank. Seven different experimental runs were performed by varying the density of the salinemixture in the ...

Phase Analysis of the Stretching Cycles of the Head of Unsteady Gravity Currents Developing over Smooth and Rough Beds

Mário Jorge Rodrigues Pereira Da Franca, Helena Isabel Dos Santos Nogueira, Claudia Adduce

Gravity currents are buoyancy driven flows occurring spontaneously in nature or resulting from human intervention. Examples of gravity currents in the water are oceanic fronts, resulting from differences in temperature and salinity, and turbidity currents ...

An analysis of the optimal band gaps of light absorbers in integrated tandem photoelectrochemical water-splitting systems

Sophia Haussener

The solar-to-hydrogen (STH) efficiency limits, along with the maximum efficiency values and the corresponding optimal band gap combinations, have been evaluated for various combinations of light absorbers arranged in a tandem configuration in realistic, op ...

Gyre formation within embayments of a large lake (Lake Geneva, Switzerland)

David Andrew Barry, Alfred Johny Wüest, Ulrich Lemmin, Damien Bouffard, Amir Mehdi Razmi, Nicolas Le Dantec

Numerical simulations were carried out to examine gyre formation within open, wide lacustrine embayments. The present study was motivated by observed differences in gyre formation within two open and wide embayments (located at Vidy and Morges in Lake Gene ...

MgB2 Hollow Wires and Cables Embedded in a Mg Alloy Matrix

Pierluigi Bruzzone, Davide Uglietti

The brittleness of the MgB2 wires prevents performing a cable architecture with very small bending radius, similar to NbTi Rutherford cables. Consequently, it is important to reduce the thickness of the superconducting materials in order to increase its be ...
