## Abstract A monolayer on a water surface is affected by the action of wind, and retracts until the wind drag is counterβbalanced by the opposing surface pressure gradient. This effect has been used to determine the shearing stress on water at low wind speeds. Estimates of the drag coefficient hav

## Abstract Continuous records of water level were taken at four points on the perimeter of Lough Neagh in N. Ireland during April 1949. The values of level at each point were measured over threeβhourly intervals to eliminate the effect of seiches and the differences in the values of level so obtai
By means of the finite element method crack opening displacements were calculated for long axial surface cracks at the outer wall of a pipe. The wall thickness to inner radius ratio of the pipe was 1 to 10. Following a procedure introduced be Mattheck et al. weight functions were evaluated by means
