Extractions: E. Linacre and B. Geerts Gustave Gaspard Coriolis was born in 1792 in Paris of an aristocratic family impoverished by the French Revolution. He studied mathematics, became an academic and published a book Calculation of the Effect of Machines in 1829. In 1835 he published his famous paper On the equations of relative motion of a system of bodies. The explanation of the effect sprang from problems of early 19th-century industry, i.e. rotating machines like water-wheels. Coriolis died in 1843 while working on a revision of his book, and he never applied his theory to ocean or atmospheric circulations, nor to its implication on the firing of ballistic missiles . It was William Ferrel who deduced in 1856 that the direction of winds tends towards a direction along the isobars , leading to C.H.D. Buys Ballot publishing his rule (Section 11.4) in 1857. Coriolis regarded the effect he had discovered as the result of a complementary centrifugal force due to the rotation of the frame of reference. For him this force was no more fictitious than the usual centrifugal force. This way of thinking has some advantages in explaining meteorological processes. It is based on the two principles, of the conservation of angular momentum and conservation of rotational kinetic energy. These principles differ from that of the conservation of linear momentum, i.e. of absolute velocity, applied by George Hadley in 1735 to explain Trade winds. A fascinating consideration is the case of the rotating skater who folds her arms inwards, and thereby spins faster because her angular momentum (I x
Artillery And Coriolis The apparent deflection of the missile from the straight path between gun and targetwas explained by gustave Gaspard coriolis (a Frenchman born in 1792) as http://www-das.uwyo.edu/~geerts/cwx/notes/chap11/artillery.html
Extractions: E. Linacre and B. Geerts For many years the discovery of the Coriolis effect has been explained by means of an apocryphal story from the European wars of the early 19th century. The story goes as follows: The military apparatus of Napoleon's era observed that the new long-range cannon landed their missiles always to the right when accurately trained on the target before firing. The apparent deflection of the missile from the straight path between gun and target was explained by Gustave Gaspard Coriolis (a Frenchman born in 1792) as due to the movement of the Earth, and therefore the target, whilst the missile was in flight. Following his death in 1843, the apparent deflection of missiles and other moving objects was named after him. However, the story is improbable (1). The effective range of guns was less that 1 km prior to rifling of the bore towards the middle of the nineteenth century, and even then the accuracy was poor. The largest muzzle-loaded cannon with rifling at the end of Coriolis life could fire effectively to 5 km at most. The muzzle velocity of such guns was perhaps 500 m/s, so the time of flight would be about 10 seconds, say. In that time, a target at the latitude of France would move only about 2.5 metres to the right of a line from the gun to the targets initial position. Such a Coriolis deflection would be indiscernible amongst the scatter caused by variations of wind strength and temperature, of the force of the explosive, of rifling wear and of the spin of the missile induced by the rifling. In short, G.G. Coriolis could not possibly have found inspiration for the effect that is named after him in the trajectory of missiles.

SMHI Gaspard gustave coriolis (17921843). Gaspard gustave coriolis var sontill en adelsman som under franska revolutionen kommit på obestånd. http://www.smhi.se/sgn0102/n0201/coriolis2.htm
Extractions: Den unge Gaspard visade tidigt anmärkningsvärda talanger och vann vid 18 års ålder tillträde till den prestigefyllda École Polytechnique. Samma år som Napoleon led nederlag vid Waterloo, 1815, blev Coriolis anställd som lärare vid skolan. Detta skedde trots motstånd från en del av hans adliga släktingar som förfasade sig att han skulle bli "en simpel skolmästare". Rektorn för École Polytechnique var en inbiten biljardspelare. För att förbättra sin skicklighet ville han skaffa sig en djupare förståelse av varför och hur bollarna rullar och studsar som de gör. Han gav Coriolis i uppdrag att utreda saken och denne publicerade 1832 en bok om "Den matematiska teorin för biljardspelet". Med detta hade Coriolis kommit att intressera sig för roterande system, i synnerhet maskiner med roterande delar. Under de följande tre åren publicerade han två artiklar om dynamiken hos sådana system. Det är i den andra artikeln, från 1835, som "corioliskraften" presenteras för första gången.

Understanding The Coriolis Force Yet winds follow curved paths across the Earth. In 1835, gustaveGaspard coriolis,a French scientist, first described mathematically what`s goin http://www.usatoday.com/weather/wcorioli.htm
Extractions: 09/15/00- Updated 03:13 PM ET Pressure differences tend to push winds in straight paths. Yet winds follow curved paths across the Earth. In 1835, Gustave-Gaspard Coriolis, a French scientist, first described mathematically what's going on, giving his name to the Coriolis force. In simple terms, as air begins flowing from high to low pressure, the Earth rotates under it, making the wind follow a curved path. In the Northern Hemisphere, the wind turns to the right of its direction of motion. In the Southern Hemisphere, it turns to the left. The Coriolis force is zero at the equator. Don't believe what you hear about Coriolis making the water in a sink or toilet rotate one way as it drains in one hemisphere, the other way in the other hemisphere. The Coriolis force is noticeable only for large-scale motions such as winds. The best Web material we've found on the Coriolis force is on the bad meteorology World Wide Web site of Alistair Fraser of Pennsylvania State University.

Extractions: Coriolis Effect Coriolis effect is an inertial force described by the 19th-century French engineer-mathematician Gustave-Gaspard Coriolis in 1835. Coriolis showed that, if the ordinary Newtonian laws of motion of bodies are to be used in a rotating frame of reference, an inertial forceacting to the right of the direction of body motion for counterclockwise rotation of the reference frame or to the left for clockwise rotationmust be included in the equations of motion. The effect of the Coriolis force is an apparent deflection of the path of an object that moves within a rotating coordinate system. The object does not actually deviate from its path, but it appears to do so because of the motion of the coordinate system. The Coriolis deflection is therefore related to the motion of the object, the motion of the Earth, and the latitude. For this reason, the magnitude of the effect is given by 2 sin , in which is the velocity of the object, is the angular velocity of the Earth, and is the latitude. The Coriolis effect has great significance in astrophysics and stellar dynamics, in which it is a controlling factor in the directions of rotation of sunspots. It is also significant in the earth sciences, especially meteorology, physical geology, and oceanography, in that the Earth is a rotating frame of reference, and motions over the surface of the Earth are subject to acceleration from the force indicated. Thus, the Coriolis force figures prominently in studies of the dynamics of the atmosphere, in which it affects prevailing winds and the rotation of storms, and in the hydrosphere, in which it affects the rotation of the oceanic currents.

Extractions: Worldflow Volume I: Worldwide Coriolis Flowmeter Market Coriolis flowmeters are a unique phenomenon among flowmeter types. Rather than measuring volumetric flow as most flowmeters do, these twisting meters measure mass flow. While they are known for their high accuracy, their size limits them for most practical purposes to line sizes of six inches or less. While Coriolis flowmeters have a relatively high initial cost, their low maintenance reduces their total cost of ownership. Coriolis flowmeters rely on a principle according to which inertial force must be taken into account when describing the motion of bodies in a rotating frame of reference. Coriolis meters are named after Gustave Coriolis , a French mathematician who discovered the principle in 1835. The force that acts according to this principle is called the Coriolis force. Coriolis flowmeters contain one or more vibrating tubes. As the fluid to be measured passes through the tubes, it accelerates at it reaches the point of maximum vibration. It then decelerates as it leaves this point.

Extractions: The Coriolis Effect The Coriolis effect describes a force that needs to be factored into ordinary Newtonian laws of motion, when defining the motion of bodies in a rotating frame of reference. The effect of the Coriolis force is most apparent in our every day lives due to the eastward rotation of the earth around it's axis. The Coriolis effect has great significance in astrophysics, stellar dynamics, meteorology, atmospheric sciences, geology and oceanography. It controls and affects numerous factors in our every day life like the direction of prevailing winds, the rotation of storms, the rotation of ocean currents and the direction of rotation of sunspots.
