The roughness factor (γf) is a parameter used in overtopping estimators to account for the effects of armor unit geometry, the number of layers in the armor and other structural characteristics. Different values of γf for ...

This figure shows the roughness factor for a rough reflection surface in terms of the angle of incidence. The roughness factor reduces the amplitud of the specular component, resulting in the scattering factor of a rough ...

In this work, macroporous Ni, Co and NieCo electrodes have been developed by codeposition
at high current density on stainless steel (AISI 304) substrates. The obtained
materials were characterized both morphologically ...
