Wake

In fluid dynamics, a wake may either be:

the region of recirculating flow immediately behind a moving or stationary blunt body, caused by viscosity, which may be accompanied by flow separation and turbulence, or

the wave pattern on the water surface downstream of an object in a flow, or produced by a moving object (e.g. a ship), caused by density differences of the fluids above and below the free surface and gravity (or surface tension),

or both.

Wake effects caused by viscosity

The wake is the region of disturbed flow (often turbulent) downstream of a solid body moving through a fluid, caused by the flow of the fluid around the body.

For a blunt body in subsonic external flow, for example the Apollo or Orion capsules during descent and landing, the wake is massively separated and behind the body is a reverse flow region where the flow is moving toward the body. This phenomenon is often observed in wind tunnel testing of aircraft, and is especially important when parachute systems are involved, because unless the parachute lines extend the canopy beyond the reverse flow region, the chute can fail to inflate and thus collapse. Parachutes deployed into wakes suffer dynamic pressure deficits which reduce their expected drag forces. High-fidelity computational fluid dynamics simulations are often undertaken to model wake flows, although such modeling has uncertainties associated with turbulence modeling (for example RANS versus LES implementations), in addition to unsteady flow effects. Example applications include rocket stage separation and aircraft store separation.

Rusty (band)

Rusty is a Canadian alternative rock band formed in 1994 in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. The band earned a 1996 Juno Award nomination in the category Best Alternative Album for Fluke.

History

Following the breakup of the band One Free Fall, vocalist Ken MacNeil bassist Jim Moore and drummer Bob Vespaziani continued working together, hooking up with former Doughboys member Scott McCullough (guitar) to record the EP Wake Me in 1994. A video for the song "Wake Me" would become a minor hit on MuchMusic. Released on Handsome Boy Records, the EP was popular on Canadian campus radio, and led to a major label distribution deal with BMG Records for their full length album Fluke in 1995. Vespaziani left the group and was replaced by Mitch Perkins.

Led by the hit single "Misogyny", which featured a video consisting of clips from Canadian filmmaker Bruce LaBruce's film Hustler White as well as Canadian singer Danko Jones, Fluke was the band's commercial breakthrough, also spawning the single "California", and earning a Juno Award nomination for Best Alternative Album. The album was produced by Chris Wardman, who also played guitar on the tracks "Groovy Dead" and "California".

'Wake' is featured as a movie character in the following productions:

Much Ado About Nothing (2012)

Actors: Joss Whedon (producer), Anita Surendran (miscellaneous crew), Cameron Arguelles (miscellaneous crew), Joss Whedon (writer), Joss Whedon (editor), Joss Whedon (director), Riki Lindhome (actress), Nathan Fillion (actor), William Shakespeare (writer), Brett Ryan Bonowicz (actor), Clark Gregg (actor), Joss Whedon (composer), Romy Rosemont (actress), Ashley Johnson (actress), Tom Lenk (actor),

Plot: Leonato (Clark Gregg), the governor of Messina, is visited by his friend Don Pedro (Reed Diamond) who is returning from a victorious campaign against his rebellious brother Don John (Sean Maher). Accompanying Don Pedro are two of his officers: Benedick (Alexis Denisof) and Claudio (Fran Kranz). While in Messina, Claudio falls for Leonato's daughter Hero (Jillian Morgese), while Benedick verbally spars with Beatrice (Amy Acker), the governor's niece. The budding love between Claudio and Hero prompts Don Pedro to arrange with Leonato for a marriage. In the days leading up to the ceremony, Don Pedro, with the help of Leonato, Claudio and Hero, attempts to sport with Benedick and Beatrice in an effort to trick the two into falling in love. Meanwhile, the villainous Don John, with the help of his allies Conrade (Riki Lindhome) and Borachio (Spencer Treat Clark), plots against the happy couple, using his own form of trickery to try to destroy the marriage before it begins. A series of comic and tragic events may continue to keep the two couples from truly finding happiness, but then again perhaps love may prevail.

Plot: "The Three Bilinguals" is a quirky character driven dramedy about a Mexican, a Cuban and a Puerto Rican who meet at the reading of their father's will. The story is about "success, love, family values, diversity and acceptance". These are qualities so important they bring the film to life. Juan Zapatero, the three bilingual's Spanish father is a "naughty" ladies man who travels the world making and selling shoes. As he gets older he finally opens his own shoe company but longs to bring his estranged children back into his life. Unfortunately this doesn't happen... Juan dies of a heart attack. The children, now all grown up, live in major cities: Los Angeles, Miami and New York. We learn that they've all inherited their father's sex drive and deep appreciation for shoes. Julio works at an upscale shoe boutique and is an artist. Jessica has a foot fetish and is a shoe junkie. Jacinto is a drag performer aka Miss "Diagnozed La Kweer" who loves to show off his shoes. They later meet their stepmom Josephine, an eccentric Caucasian woman at the reading of the will. Josephine, who was out of town getting plastic surgery learns that her beloved husband of many years dies of a heart attack. The two never had children together. As stated in Juan's will, "his three children must all live together in harmony for one full year with Josephine before they can claim their inheritance that includes their share of the estate worth millions and their father's shoe empire in a bold attempt to unite his family.
