Tidal distortion in shallow estuaries
… tide becomes distorted as it propagates into shallow inlet/estuarine systems. Time asymmetries develop in the rise and fall of sea surface with consequent time and magnitude asymmetries in tidal currents. Flood-dominant estuaries are characterized by longer falling tides and stronger flood …

Interpretation of shallow geothermal surveys
Over the last several decades, the shallow temperature survey has been developed as a surface geophysical method in ground water and geothermal energy exploration. Advances in numerical modeling techniques have made it possible to build a realistic model of the shallow subsurface. In particular, …

Deformation mechanisms beneath shallow foundations
Shallow foundations can provide the most economical solution for supporting small-scale structures. The design approach is quite simple considering the ultimate bearing capacity and working-load settlement. Research has shown that settlement calculations, determined using a linear-elastic approach, …

Adapting and improving a shallow parser
… language. One of these tools is IceParser, a shallow parser, whose purpose is to annotate flat phrase structure and syntactic functions. The input to IceParser are tokenised sentences, tagged with part-of-speech (POS) tags from the Icelandic POS tagset. This tagset was revised recently which …

Gas distribution in shallow packed beds
… fluid mechanics of maldistributed gas flows in shallow packed beds. The flow through the outlet of the duct below the bed can be controlled, permitting a rigorous investigation. The results from this apparatus provide useful insights into the fluid mechanics of flow in and around a shallow …

Rain Formation in Shallow Tropical Convection
Despite the time and space constraints placed on the results by the observed evolution of the updrafts, the calculations showed that the process of rain formation in warm convective clouds is simple and efficient, provided that giant and ultragiant CCN are present near cloud base. While more …

Vertical ship motions in shallow water
… interest in the prediction of ship motions in shallow water, where the possibility of grounding becomes a problem. Theoretical equations governing the ship's motions have been formulated involving various hydrodynamic coefficients. In this thesis these coefficients have been found …

Structural design of shallow masonry domes
This thesis investigates the viability of shallow, unreinforced masonry domes for the roof and floor systems of residential construction. In recent years, reinforced concrete (RCC) framed construction has been established as the dominant structural form for residential and commercial usage in the …

Incipient Motion Under Shallow Flow Conditions
… the Shields parameter can be twice as large in shallow flows than in deep flows. The results also show that the Shields parameter is dependent on the density of the particles. Data obtained from other studies support the findings of the present work. These findings can result in significant cost …

Subversive Intimacies: Resisting Settler Colonialism's Shallow Attachments
… settler colonialism depend on disjointed and shallow attachments, and how do Indigenous and non-Indigenous artists respond to and rise above the asociality of this structure? I draw on a range of creative responses—graphic novels, music, poetry, fiction, activism—as a means of assessing how …

Nutrient dynamics in shallow tidally-dominated estuaries
Te Puna and Waikareao estuaries are shallow tidally-dominated estuaries in Tauranga Harbour located on the Bay of Plenty Coast, New Zealand. Tauranga Harbour is the site of a large commercial port surrounded by urban development. The primary aim of this thesis was to determine the variations of …

Glacier-ocean interactions in shallow-silled fjords
Glacier-ocean interactions in shallow-silled fjords play a crucial role in the mass balance of marine-terminating glaciers and the transport of freshwater from the ice sheet to the ocean. Despite their importance, the complex dynamics of these systems, influenced by sill processes, freshwater …

Dynamical Sedimentary Models of Shallow Marine Environments
… understanding of sedimentary processes in shallow marine environments. The dynamical sedimentary models in this treatise numerically simulate the sedimentary processes from an event time scale, based on the fundamental physics of sediment dynamics in coastal and shelf depositional …
