wave barrier
1Wave making resistance — is a form of drag that affects surface watercraft, such as boats and ships, and reflects the energy required to push the water out of the way of the hull. This energy goes into creating the wake.PhysicsFor small displacement hulls, such as… …
2Wave-cut platform — Wave cut platform. In this case, alternating hard and soft layers have been folded up vertically and eroded by the tides, resulting in a regular ripple pattern at the surface. A wave cut platform, or shore platform is the narrow flat area often… …
3Wave drag — is an aerodynamics term that refers to a sudden and very powerful form of drag that appears on aircraft and blade tips moving at high subsonic and supersonic speeds. Overview Wave drag is caused by the formation of shock waves around the aircraft …
4Finite potential barrier (QM) — In quantum mechanics, the finite potential barrier is a standard one dimensional problem that demonstrates the phenomenon of quantum tunnelling. The problem consists of solving the time independent Schrödinger equation for a particle with a… …

7de Broglie wave — Physics. a hypothetical wave associated with the motion of a particle of atomic or subatomic size that describes effects such as the diffraction of beams of particles by crystals. Also called matter wave. [1925 30; named after L.V. DE BROGLIE] *… …
8Sound barrier — In aerodynamics, the sound barrier usually refers to the point at which an aircraft moves from transonic to supersonic speed. The term came into use during World War II when a number of aircraft started to encounter the effects of compressibility …
9Outer barrier — The outer barrier, also known as the Long Island and New York City barrier islands, refers to the string of barrier islands that divide the lagoons south of Long Island from the Atlantic Ocean. These islands include Coney Island, Long Beach… …
10Dielectric barrier discharge — (DBD) is the electrical discharge between two electrodes separated by an insulating dielectric barrier. Originally called silent (inaudible) discharge and also known as ozone production discharge[1] or partial discharge,[2] it was first reported… …
