Capillary waves (ripples) in water Ripples on Lifjord in Øksnes Municipality, Norway Capillary waves produced by droplet impacts on the interface between water and air.. A capillary wave is a wave traveling along the phase boundary of a fluid, whose dynamics and phase velocity are dominated by the effects of surface tension.
Like the sinuous ripples, this form of ripple is created by unidirectional flow with the dip at an angle to the flow as well as downstream. Linguoid / Lunate Linguoid ripples have lee slope surfaces that are curved generating a laminae similar to caternary and sinuous ripples. Linguoid ripples generate an angle to the flow as well as downstream.
Symmetrical ripple. Although symmetrical ripples are also called bi-directional ripples there is a difference between them. Bi-directional ripples are rarely symmetrical due to the difference in force of the two directions, where as the wave formed or oscillation ripples form from the circular water movement pattern of water molecules.
Ripple marks: Ripple marks are small ridges of sediment that form due to wind or water blowing over loose sediment in either a current or wave pattern. Aeolian ripples result from high velocity winds which form fine, well-sorted grain particles into long, flat, asymmetrical ripples. [citation needed]
An example of a surface wave would be waves in a pool, or in an ocean, lake, or any other type of water body. There are two types of surface waves, namely Rayleigh waves and Love waves . Rayleigh waves, also known as ground roll , are waves that travel as ripples with motion similar to those of waves on the surface of water.
Former national security adviser John Bolton said former President Trump hasn’t set a good example, claiming his actions could have an “unfortunately ripple effect.” “I think the President ...
Ripple, more generally a disturbance, for example of spacetime in gravitational waves Ripple (electrical) , residual periodic variation in DC voltage during ac to dc conversion Ripple current , pulsed current draw caused by some non-linear devices and circuits
