BREAKWATERS ON WAVE ENERGY DISSIPATION ABSTRACT The northern Egyptian coasts are subjected to many changes in shoreline balance due to waves and coastal currents. To protect and develop these coasts‚ many types of coastal protection structures have been used. This research demonstrates the effect of different systems of coastal protection structures on wave energy dissipation. By using the CGWAVE numerical model‚ the effect of each one and interaction between these structures on wave height could

and plasma EMR is energy that propagates through a medium in the form of EM waves. It has an electric and magnetic field which oscillate in phase perpendicular to each other and to the direction of propagation. EMR exists in different wavelengths and frequencies ranging from gamma rays to radio waves which make up the EM spectrum. Plasma is categorized as the fourth state of matter because its character is more complex than solid‚ liquid or gas state. It is electrically charged particles at high

We can’t hear above 20‚000 hertz or below 20 hertz (ultra and infrasonic waves). Light is both part particle and part wave. Light is "the electromagnetic radiation that may be perceived

Working within a Marxist framework‚ social theorist Fredric Jameson links the emergence of particular art aesthetics with the development of a specif ic Western economic system in his text‚ Postmodernism‚ or‚ the Cultural Logic of Late Capitalism (1990). With latecapitalism as the current economic environment‚ Jameson demonstrates how these economic conditions bear on cultural and artistic production. According to Jameson‚ cultural production in late-capitalism is identif iable through a use of pastiche

supplanted by less invasive treatments: Shock wave lithotripsy‚ the introduction of shock wave lithotripsy in the early 1980s revolutionized the treatment of nephrolithiasis. A shock wave is generated by a source external to the patient that propagates through the body before being focused on a kidney stone. Shock waves cause stone fragmentation directly by producing mechanical stresses or indirectly by the collapse of cavitation bubbles (61). Although shock wave lithotripsy is the most common treatment
