DOI: 10.1016/j.ocemod.2018.06.002
Abstract: Abstract Many state-of-the-art coupled sea ice-ocean models use atmospheric and oceanic drag coefficients that are at best a function of the atmospheric stability but otherwise constant in time and space. Constant drag coefficients might lead… read more here.

DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0188015
Abstract: Frictional drag force on an object in Stokes flow follows a linear relationship with the velocity of translation and a translational drag coefficient. This drag coefficient is related to the size, shape, and orientation of… read more here.

DOI: 10.2514/1.a33825
Abstract: Debris objects such as rocket bodies can pose a threat to active space assets in orbit and to assets and humans on the ground through reentry. Orbit and reentry predictions for low-perigee resident space objects… read more here.
