In order to understand the observed pattern, a two dimensional kinematic model of a meandering jet was developed which could be used to examine the relationship between streamfunction patterns and fluid parcel trajectories. The experiments designed to investigate the dependence of the water exchanges between the Kuroshio water and its surroundings on the characteristics of the Kuroshio’s meanders involved the downstream speed, phase speed and the amplitude of other propagating waves. The results suggested that fluid parcels could cross the meandering jet to and fro; and that the water exchanges between the Kuroshio and its surroundings increased with a) increasing meander amplitude, b) decreasing downstream speed, and c) increasing wave phase speed. The results also showed that when the meandering jet was disturbed by other propagating waves, more effective water exchanges could be induced.展开更多

Dynamic viscosity of rapeseed oil was determined at temperatures between 40 ℃-90 ℃ and shear rates ranging from 3.3-120 s1. All types of oils studied Bingham fluid behavior in the temperature range from 313-363 K. Correlation coefficients have similar values to one for all oils studied.展开更多

With an increase in the strength of the substrate, we find a transition from crystal to smectic flows above the depinning. A power-law scaling relationship between average velocity and applied driving force could be obtained for both flows, and we find that the scaling exponents are no bigger than 1 for the crystal and are bigger than 1 for the smectic flows.展开更多
