Airy wave theory is a linear theory for the propagation of waves on the surface of a potential flow and above a horizontal bottom. The free surface elevation η(x,t) of one wave component is sinusoidal, as a function of horizontal position x and time t: (,) = where
The first wave research equipment was the wave flume. [3] It is 360 feet (110 m) long, 12 feet (3.7 m) wide, and 15 feet (4.6 m) deep. [3] It is used to simulate the waves of the ocean, and creates 5-foot-high (1.5 m) waves with currents strong enough to surf on. [3] The wave flume holds up to 350,000 gallons of water. [3]
Animation of a standing wave (red) created by the superposition of a left traveling (blue) and right traveling (green) wave. In physics, a standing wave, also known as a stationary wave, is a wave that oscillates in time but whose peak amplitude profile does not move in space.
The Wave Dragon is an overtopping WEC concept developed in Denmark since 1998, with a 1:4.5 scale prototype tested between 2003 and 2010. With the Wave Dragon, large wing reflectors focus waves up a ramp into an offshore reservoir. The water returns to the ocean by the force of gravity via hydroelectric generators. [99] [100]
"Wave" (also known as "Vou Te Contar" in Portuguese; "I am going to tell you" in English) is a bossa nova and jazz standard song written by Antônio Carlos Jobim. Recorded as an instrumental on his 1967 album of the same name , its English lyrics were written by Jobim himself later that year.
Waveform Audio File Format (WAVE, or WAV due to its filename extension; [3] [6] [7] pronounced / w æ v / or / w eɪ v / [8]) is an audio file format standard for storing an audio bitstream on personal computers.
"My Wave" is a song by the American rock band Soundgarden. Featuring lyrics written by frontman Chris Cornell and music co-written by Cornell and guitarist Kim Thayil , "My Wave" was released in 1994 as the fourth single from the band's fourth studio album, Superunknown (1994).
It is generally considered the most important horse race in Chile, on par with the Epsom Derby, the American classics, the Prix de l'Arc de Triomphe in France, and the Gran Premio Carlos Pellegrini in Argentina. [2] [3] It is the first race in the Chilean Triple Crown. [2] El Ensayo is restricted to only horses that have won at least one race. [4]
