The wave?current?seabed interaction problem is studied by using a coupled-mode system developed for modeling wave scattering by non-homogeneous, sheared currents in variable bathymetry regions. The model is based on a modal series expansion of wave veloc...

The free transverse vibration of a surface-piercing, vertical cylinder partially submerged in water was studied. The cylinder had an arbitrary non-circular, but symmetric, cross-section in the vibration direction. The water was assumed to be an incompres...

To predict the sealing performance of the subsea pipeline compression connector, a semi-analytical method is proposed and verified. The leakage condition is obtained as a function of the minimum radial deflection. The semi-analytical method consists of t...

There is a rising interest amongst Australian farmers to use disc seeders due to their ability to operate in high residue conditions and at higher speeds, commonly in the range of 12 to 15 km h-1. This paper reports on developing an analytical and discre...

In the paper, nonlinear vibration characteristics of a rotor system are investigated. Such a nonlinear rotor system is subjected to brush seal forces, which are obtained by integrating the bristle force along the entire ring. The nonlinear brush seal rot...

Disc seeders are commonly used in no-till farming systems, and their performance evaluation generally rely on expensive and time-consuming field experiments. Mathematical models can help speed up force-related evaluations and improve the understanding of...

The process of how soil moisture profiles evolve into the soil and reach the root zone could be estimated by solving the appropriate strong nonlinear Richards? equation. The nonlinearity of the equation occurs because diffusivity D is generally an expone...

Based on the assumption of linear potential flow theory, the scattering problem of a composite breakwater placed in front of an impermeable back wall is theoretically investigated. The velocity potential in each subregion is found using the eigenfunction...
