Sentence examples for wake angle from inspiring English sources
Indeed, constructive interferences among the divergent waves created by a fast ship largely determine the variation of the amplitude of the waves across the ship wake, and therefore the apparent wake angle and the wave drag of the ship, a critical element of ship design.
The remarkably simple yet realistic Hogner model of farfield ship waves, previously considered to analyze the apparent wake angle associated with the highest waves that result from constructive interferences among the divergent waves created by a fast ship in deep water, is applied to the more general case of uniform finite water depth.
A new empirical relation for the bubble wake angle in group B powders has been proposed, and it has been made likely that the rate of material interchange between the wake of a rising bubble and the surrounding bulk is independent of the minimum fluidisation velocity of the bed particles.
"If you want to define the wake angle as what's most visible, then that's okay, they're doing it right," Beck says.
But in mathematical terms, Beck notes, the wake angle is defined as a particular crease in the wave pattern and that crease could be fainter for faster boats.
Because of that proportionality, the wake angle is always the same, as the faster the boat goes the faster the wake spreads.
where χ is the wake skew angle, and ψ is the azimuth angle.
Make a turn to either side and cross the wakes by turning your skis at a sharp angle to the wake.
In practice, scientists and engineers have long known that boats and ships sometimes appear to produce narrower wakes with smaller angles.
Make sure you cross at a sharp angle to the wake with both skis at the same time.
