3 cards from this section. Quick, good the night before a test.
What are the two primary boundary conditions applied in wave mechanics?
Think about the properties of fluid at rest.
Define the Laplace equation in your own words.
Consider its significance in fluid dynamics.
What does the Laplace equation relate to in fluid mechanics?
Consider the behaviors of liquids and gases.
True or False: The dynamic surface boundary condition is applied at the seabed.
Think about fluid motion at different levels.
Consider a wave of height H impacting a sloped beach. Using boundary conditions, derive how wave height affects potential flow at different depths d.
Remember to account for depth changes and wave heights dimensionally.
If the wave period T alters, reflect this on the relationship between k and sigma; create a derived equation that expresses this shift.
Look at the relationships of frequency and wave characteristics.
