Energy and structure of inertial range turbulence deduced from an evolution of fluid impulse. (2002)
Journal Article
Summers, D. M., & Summers, D. (2002). Energy and structure of inertial range turbulence deduced from an evolution of fluid impulse. Physical review. E, Statistical physics, plasmas, fluids, and related interdisciplinary topics, 65(3), 0363141-0363149. https://doi.org/10.1103/PhysRevE.65.036314

We explore numerically a very simple idea that may provide a material explanation for inertial range turbulence. We base a Lagrangian model of viscous incompressible fluid flow on an evolving ensemble of vortex doublet sheets. Initially these are ran...

Impulse exchange at the surface of the ocean and the fractal dimension of drifter trajectories. (2002)
Journal Article
Summers, D. (2002). Impulse exchange at the surface of the ocean and the fractal dimension of drifter trajectories. Nonlinear Processes in Geophysics, 9, 11-23. https://doi.org/10.5194/npg-9-11-2002

An impulse-based model is developed to represent a coupling between turbulent flow in the atmosphere and turbulent flow in the ocean. In particular, it is argued that the atmosphere flowing horizontally over the ocean surface generates a velocity flu...

Soundfields and soundscapes: reifying auditory communities (2002)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
McGregor, I., Crerar, A., Benyon, D., & Macaulay, C. (2002, July). Soundfields and soundscapes: reifying auditory communities. Presented at International Conference on Auditory Displays (ICAD 2002) Advanced Telecommunications Research Institute (ATR), Kyoto, Japan

This paper reports progress towards mapping workplace soundscapes. In order to design auditory interfaces that integrate effectively with workplace environments, we need a detailed understanding of the way in which end users inhabit these environment...
