Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A three-dimensional, physical, hydraulic model investigation was performed to establish a stable jetty design for use in the proposed rehabilitation of the north jetty at Yaquina Bay, Oregon. The study was conducted at a geometrically undistorted linear scale of 1:45, model to prototype. Undirectional, spectral test waves were generated from three directions. Wave conditions were selected based on six hindcasted storms which covered the range of historical and probable worst wave conditions. Tests were conducted at still-water levels of 0.0 ft and +10.0 ft mean lower low water. The seaward end of the north jetty has undergone rapid deterioration since the previous 1977-1978 rehabilitation. The loss of approximately 400 ft of the jetty has resulted in increased deposition of littoral material in the entrance channel and more severe wave conditions at the mouth. Three mean amorstone weights (16, 23, and 29 tons) were used in the rehabilitation plan tested. This plan would restore the jetty to its original length and would utilize the 'placed-stone' construction technique. The model tests indicated that the recommended armor-stone weights were adequate and that the plan to employ 'placed-stone' construction of the jetty on existing deteriorated jetty stone was acceptable. Additional tests were performed with monochromatic wave conditions in an effort to compare wave heights measured in the physical model with wave heights predicted in an earlier study by the numerical model, RCPWAVE. A discussion of those test results is included.

Download or read book Fishes of the Salish Sea written by Theodore W. Pietsch and published by . This book was released on 2019 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fishes of the Salish Sea is the definitive guide to the identification and history of the marine and anadromous fishes of Puget Sound and the Straits of Georgia and Juan de Fuca. This comprehensive three-volume set, featuring striking illustrations of the Salish Sea's 260 fish species by noted illustrator Joseph Tomelleri, details the ecology and life history of each species and recounts the region's rich heritage of marine research and exploration. Beginning with jawless hagfishes and lampreys and ending with the distinctive Ocean Sunfish, leading scientists Theodore Wells Pietsch and James Orr present the taxa in phylogenetic order, based on classifications that reflect the most current scientific knowledge. Illustrated taxonomic keys facilitate fast and accurate species identification. These in-depth, thoroughly documented, and yet accessible volumes will prove invaluable to marine biologists and ecologists, natural resource managers, anglers, divers, students, and all who want to learn about, marvel over, and preserve the vibrant diversity of Salish Sea marine life. Comprehensive accounts of 260 fish species Brilliant color plates of all treated species Illustrated taxonomic keys for easy species identification In-depth history of Salish Sea research and exploration

Book excerpt: How Native American history can guide us today: “Presents strong voices of old, old cultures bravely trying to make sense of an Earth in chaos.” —Whole Earth Written by a former Green Party vice-presidential candidate who was once listed among “America’s fifty most promising leaders under forty” by Time magazine, this thoughtful, in-depth account of Native struggles against environmental and cultural degradation features chapters on the Seminoles, the Anishinaabeg, the Innu, the Northern Cheyenne, and the Mohawks, among others. Filled with inspiring testimonies of struggles for survival, each page of this volume speaks forcefully for self-determination and community. “Moving and often beautiful prose.” —Ralph Nader “Thoroughly researched and convincingly written.” —Choice
Download or read book Progress in Scale Modeling written by Kozo Saito and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2008-08-20 with total page 529 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Scale modeling can play an important role in R&D. When engineers receive some ideas in new product development, they can test how the new design looks by bui- ing scale models and they can get an actual feeling with the prototype through their imagination. Professor Emori often said: “When children play with a toy airplane, their mind is wondering about the prototype airplane which they haven’t ridden. ” Children can use the scale model airplane as a means to enter into an imagi- tive world of wonder by testing in their own way how the actual airplane might function, how the actual airplane can maneuver aerodynamically, what might be the actual sound of a jet engine, how to safely land the actual airplane, and so on. This imagination that scale models can provide for children will help them later develop professional intuition. Physical scale models can never be entirely succe- fully replaced by computer screens where virtual models are displayed and fancy functions are demonstrated. Not only children but also adults can learn things by actually touching things only offered by physical models, helping all of us develop imagination and feeling eventually leading toward Kufu. Einstein’s famous “thought experiments [11],” which helped him to restructure modern physics may possibly and effectively be taught by letting researchers play with scale models!? References 1. I.
