The physics of wind-blown sand and dust
TL;DR: The physics of aeolian saltation, the formation and development of sand dunes and ripples, the physics of dust aerosol emission, the weather phenomena that trigger dust storms, and the lifting of dust by dust devils and other small-scale vortices are reviewed.

The physics of wind-blown sand and dust
TL;DR: In this article, an extensive review of the physics of wind-blown sand and dust on Earth and Mars is presented, including a review of aeolian saltation, the formation and development of sand dunes and ripples, dust aerosol emission, weather phenomena that trigger dust storms, and the lifting of dust by dust devils and other small-scale vortices.
Book
Granular Media: Between Fluid and Solid
TL;DR: In this article, the granular solid: statics and elasticity of granular liquid and granular gases are discussed at the grain level, and the interaction between granular media, statics, elasticity and plasticity at the liquid level.
ReportDOI
Rough-Wall Turbulent Boundary Layers
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated the effect of roughness on the near-wall drag-producing turbulent structures and proposed control strategies to reduce momentum loss in rough-wall boundary layers.
Journal ArticleDOI
Sand Ripples and Dunes
TL;DR: In this article, a unified description of bed-form growth and saturation is proposed, emphasizing the hydrodynamical regime in the inner layer and the relaxation phenomena associated with particle transport.

Theory of elasticity
TL;DR: The theory of the slipline field is used in this article to solve the problem of stable and non-stressed problems in plane strains in a plane-strain scenario.
Book
Boundary layer theory
TL;DR: The flow laws of the actual flows at high Reynolds numbers differ considerably from those of the laminar flows treated in the preceding part, denoted as turbulence as discussed by the authors, and the actual flow is very different from that of the Poiseuille flow.

An Introduction to Boundary Layer Meteorology
TL;DR: In this article, the boundary layer is defined as the boundary of a boundary layer, and the spectral gap is used to measure the spectral properties of the boundary layers of a turbulent flow.
