|||| Scary how
stuff seems not only evermore second hand but also everless adequately
attributed and isn’t just omission of contextual citation but absence of any
apparent awareness! Only opinion of course but testable as hypothesis and
every time my suspicion seems substantiated. Could be construed as a plague
of plagiarism (popularly presumed amongst publishers) but I blame dumb
downing of depth and detail delineated in degrees and increasingly
improvised, imagined even, innovative novelty however naff, nonsense even,
portrayed because it pulls Pavlovian promotion from managerial mediocrities.
It’s an everywhere epidemic so it’d be invidious identifying any one arena
but I will because I just encountered it again, this time at an event on
Automated Liquid Handling under auspices of LRIG (Laboratory Robotics
Interest Group). Three “frowning facets” from my former familiarities were as
follows # absence of awareness of dynamic modulus as distinguishing
determinant for interfacial inhibition of drop ejection in live cell
screening, an Astra Zenica issue ironically because AZ was ICI whose marine
lubricants with undefined modulus beyond spot reference for surface tension
furnished FRED’s five years from late 80s optimising PAG-PEG cocktails for
maximum damping of sea waves, this formulation still being used a decade
later by US Navy when I last enquired! # absence of awareness of dynamic
modulus as distinguishing determinant for micelle formation and stability in
stirred suspensions incorporating non ionic surfactants especially PAGs, also
scope for blending with PEGs to provide a spectrum of solubility stabilities
and partitioning rates, this as issue for an excellence centre ironically
sponsored by Unilever who took two of my early 90s PhD people familiar with
these factors over a decade ago! # absence of awareness of sensitivities and
instabilities of undifferentiated finely dispersed suspension cell cultures
in presence of physicochemical perturbations as a generic issue not specially
singular for human stem cells, in particular shared by plant cells as
meristem derivatives surveyed for secondary metabolite effects of exogenous
inhibitors and hormonal signalling scoping to adaptively mutated or
recoverably extended stasis ~ also ironic being a UCL biotech activity and
them having hosted one of my early 90s PhD people en route to Amgen, a spit
from Malibu Beach... and me blackballed in backyard Brum! |||| Motor racing as residual refuge for
red-blooded head-bangers has sadly succumbed to correctness corruption
courtesy of £M50 pick pocketed from poor old percy public purportedly for
greening its grunt so as to let eco loonies believe they’ve beaten another
beast in waging wanton wars against all masculine mentalities. I encountered
this idiotic initiative in special session at a DTI awareness activity and
since attended an event entitled Future Fuels under auspices of EEMS (Energy
Efficient Motor Sport). Fortunately it was far less foolish than feared, well
apart from opening overture by a woolly windbag who believed being an
econogist amongst experts excused endless correctness claptrap scoped from
simplistic to soporific, exactly as encountered a decade ago in absurd
attacks on agricultural activities about to be beggared by Beckett and mugged
by Milliband with inevitable ironic irreparable injury to sustainable supply of affordable foods
for average earners, now amplified in brainless bio-fuelling intolerably
taxed following fossilised formula. In same spirit, Stern’s climate crusade
contrived to consolidate King’s catastrophe codswallop which though pilloried
by plenty of politically and profitably unpocketed professionals has been
persistently pushed for profiteering pop policies by parasitizing punters and
pressurizing promoters. Indeed, these are only parts of a pervasive perjury
promulgated via political pseudoscience that has seen such as Darling’s
pointed penalty persecution of percy for profits from slender speeding safe
by any sensible standards not just for enforcement flouters and abominable
ACPOlogists, also wanton wasting of homes from flooding maximally multiplied
in minimally maintained mismanagement by Morley mouthing mantras about
yakking Youngsters diddling dice on damaged personal property &
possessions. Direst of all has been deadly denial of drugs for paid-up
patients proportionately provisioned at more than twenty times the cost of
some for Big-A and even Big-C, this just one of many Milburn madcap
monstrosities (like PPPP = Public Partnerships for Private Profiteering)
hyped by the hapless Hewitt and all moronically moralised by mismanagers
simultaneously squandering stupendous sums on superficial sillies and even
scamming sprees, like ex-Crapita congestion charge clown just shed as a super
salaried supremo of fatuously flawed patient preference programme. Yet all of
the above will soon be swamped by gITish game on identity intrusion costing
countless kings’ coffers hijacking health and personal privacies into
proprietarily policed digital dossier that’ll never properly provide for
purpose. So however impeccable the intentions of individuals involved in this
latest little loony, EEMS will surely be pressured into pandering yet more
political persecution of percy’s predilection for manual motoring, with car
queuing privacy preferable by far to pedestrian passivity pending conveyance
by carcass carriers as cashing cartels that should be but sadly aren’t
exceedingly embarrassing to authorising apparatchiks! |||| TBC motivated by my meldrewismic
mentality ~ meanwhile there’s always my moanickers! |
|
|||| Well at least
the floods furnished apocalyptic ecstasy for the muddled meddlers who as ever
manipulated media misrepresentation to make yet more money from poor old
percy’s purse to consolidate their campaigning careers via promotional
pursuit of apocryphal Armageddon. All aspects of this debacle displayed
greedy grubby grabbing that’s become a byword for burgeoned British
replacement of reasonable rationality by disreputable deniability, with
complicity camouflaged by contriving whimsical welfare even wartime
caricatures for all concerned. It’s criminal that corporate cowboys in
cahoots with poseur police and posturing politicos connived coverage conveyed
as service selflessness with a water vendor vilified for phoney pricing
pitched on dodgy dealings and pretty similar sharp practices by power
providers, both beneficiaries of depreciated privatisations and improper
profiteering condoned by cartel-compliant controllers. Also abhorrent was
authorised agency’s abdication of accountability for its denial of due
diligence to people unprotected despite pirated prepayment for provision,
personified in principals parroting greenhouse gobbledegook whilst grabbing
gratuitous gratuities hoping they’d stay secreted beneath this self-serving
smokescreen that sought to shroud fiasco failure following endless
expenditure on everything except expected eventualities. Blind to
blameworthiness for blunders, the agency argued more money must be made
available for assets, asserting science was on their side yet this so-called
science only ever speculated winters would be wetter and summers should be
sunnier, at least that’s what emerged from their endless extemporisation in
elephantine exaggeration! Inevitably then the met office modelling mob
boarded the bandwagon bidding for yet more mega money busting the billions
already beggared for correlations cobbled in pursuit of politically preferred
policies, all of it wantonly wasted waffling away in that wonderland world of
managerial make-believe that software secures anything above self-evident
superficiality! What beggared my belief beyond all bounds was cavalier
condescension of a dapper dickhead publicly pronouncing the water hawker’s
withdrawal from contractual commitment to compensate customers for having
pulled its pumped provision, claiming no-one could ever have envisaged such
an excess over the ‘47 reference used for positioning their pumping plant,
never mentioning of course that it was nonetheless profitably plonked on the
flood plain despite reality records that revealed 5 exceptions over 150 years
meaning twice the expected interval elapsed to ’07 so it was not exactly
extreme by any sensible statistics! With similarly spun slyness, the
authorised agency asserted absence of flood barriers from their designated
destination at a vulnerable village was due to driving delays on diversions,
encouraging this excuse to bury blame for dereliction of their duty to
provide paramount protection of power plant and water works which is where
all that gear went as we know only no-one ever explained exactly as they
intended from outset because saying that said sod the poor peasants penalised
having protection pulled and no redress for damage done! ||| Most
modern methodological mediocrities mostly default on deliverable diligence,
unlike direct descendents of Lunar luminaries whose infrastructural
inheritance comprises core competence in water engineering essentials of
potable provision and dirty drainage, ditto energy and transport including
proper provision for foresight in flood fortitude. It beggars belief that
engineered embankments and elevations as well as detritus dredging and sludge
siphoning were long since scrapped for sake of skinflint scamming, a
stupidity not shared by the Dutch who unlike us learned their lessons from
fifties floods and even now are doubling the duties of their dykes whilst our
back-up’s been busted by wily woollies waffling wetland waders! For all that
mega money mismanaged by manipulative ministerial mannequins and their
amateurish agency autocrats dolloping our dough to dumb-downers and
do-gooders, indeed with zealous zombies now numbered in zillions, there’s
zilch by way of functionally factored flood-fighting facilities despite
droves of former failures that should have prompted paramount priority for
provision of proper protection. But then hot-air hooraying always had higher
holding than nitty-gritty grafting for these heartless honchos and their
mouthy mongrels racketeering not just risks but also realities for the
massive majority penalised purely for being provincials, unprotected yet
compelled to contribute to capital’s posh provision so London’s lording
luvvies have happier hedonism. This maltreatment was monstrously magnified by
our megalomaniac masters macerating multimillion manufacturing makers, many
midlands men emasculated to engender employment on moronic mini money as
MacDumbald menials enslaved in slushed starts-up contrived to consolidate
centralised control, aka communisation. Particularly pukey was endless easy
exposure allowing an incoming ignoramus wellie veggie seccie state to spin
the standard slob story that scientists said it was climate cookery causing
all calamities, well couldn’t say for sure but could well be seeing as
there’s so many nasties nowadays... about as lewd a lie as could be seeing as
only a smattering of schooled scientists are into analytical actuality as
opposed to artificial angularity and of those only a smidgen able to assess
anything beyond cuddly campaigning on field fringing for birds and bees or
river restocking for fishes and frogs and of those only a soupcon of
self-serving attention amplifiers claimed causation. His political perjury
was compounded by claiming incomprehension of complexities and not moderated
by maintaining he was merely mouthing the mantra promulgated by his
predecessor poseurs! ||| Comparable cynicism was conveyed by the
authorised agency’s apparatchiks most outrageously featuring their figurehead
flapper, a dapper dame whose “debut ante” had all attributes of an
affirmative action arranged by parliamentary pals and as a health honcho she
shared in scene setting the disastrous delinquency of diverting public purse
from practical provision into service swindling and property profiteering.
Skipping ship before it sank she bagged Britain’s biggest bird charity as
promoter principal picked for her powerful pals, that trick also explaining
extraordinarily expanded emphasis to avian advantage in her subsequent
sojourn at the agency, as well as accelerated access to profitable publicity
for her careerist companions chomping charitable cash. That someone so short
of simple sensibilities and devoid of deserving deeds achieved amazing
advancement must be attributed to same old scientifically stunted Scot
sycophancy that engineered an endless epidemic of absurdly advanced accented
aliens magically metamorphosed from mundane mediocrity to manipulative
megalomania by the Brownian Brotherhood of Lothian Luvvies and their media
mates spinning support for siphoned slush. Affirmatively actioned arty
administrators are always scientific skinheads, her predecessor indeed the
idiot instigator of that sloppy solipsistic precautionary prejudice
fraudulently floated as principle (no more that than is creationism
codswallop), sadly since burgeoned by bureaucrats bolstered by androgynous
armies comprising culturally correct cohorts as presumed prerequisite for all
assays however absurd, a barmy betrayal that bifurcated into an irrational
interval with scientific sensibility suppressed for demagogical duping of
democracy via ignorantly irrelevant equally empowered unfocused follies.
Science of course will survive because it’s tried and tested true unlike all
fashionably faddish futilities but fidelity is foolish in the face of all
that baloney blustered on selling it short as politically papped prerequisite
for personal progression! Indeed slobbery for sake of career consolidation
has prejudicially perverted project programmes producing proposals mindless
of meaningful merit, so no wonder only greenhouse gases from fossil fuels are
fingered for worldwide warming irrespective of implausibility amongst the
massive majority of old-schooled scientists. ||| It beggars belief with dwellings
despoiled by foul floodwater without much mediation for most for many moons
that those arrogant agency apparatchiks had the hide to take telly spots to
megaphone multimillion money for flooding of fenlands whilst deliberately
denying even primitive protection for vulnerable victims; moreover and even
more maddening was sight of their media merchant selling stupid soap story
sponsorship of fictionalised flooding of London as loony limelight
counterweight cartoon to Gore’s garish film folly featuring New York’s day
after tomorrow. Same day saw agency apparatchiks attributing the inundations
to excessively efficient drainage from fields, endorsing gormless greenies as
ever moaning about modern methods, whereas almost all independent experts
echoed commonsense commentary that the disaster was due to agency abdication
of action on routine repairs! But worst of all was woolly weasel wordage
about bonuses bigger than basic bread for most menials, emphatically asserted
by the agency’s leading lady as payable for past performance but that surely
must have been a shaggy story seeing as so few functionally fruitful factors
were ever formulated never mind finalised or forefend fitted during the two
decades since I first encountered the motley mob at meetings on what to do
with waterway pollution from farmland runoff and sewage supernatant. Soon
afterwards I got involved at firsthand via DTI SMART Awards and a sponsored
PhD for wind-powered waste water bioremediation expanded elsewhere,
encountering environmental eccentricities that almost without exception
filled me with foreboding about futility of anything fruitful being furnished
from poor old percy public’s purse... as borne out in billions burned at
behest of bantering bimbos and blustering bongos but bugger-all on the bottom
boundary for future fortification. After a decade of debilitating denial for
my own remarkably robust renewable recommendation, principle
proved-prototyped-patented and now probably pirated on the bandwagon
burgeoned by bonkers base-load wind farming spawned by subsidised scamming to
tune of twenty times conventional cost of power production, my exasperation
exploded after millennial inundation of N Devon villages when an ancient
ailing recently bereaved relative was left to fester in the residue from four
feet of foul mess for months without aid until I threatened telly-time
exposure expressly accusing agency complicity in creating clogged culverts
and blocked bridges as a piratical ploy to protect a considerable coastal
conurbation, a rebuke which remarkably resulted in plump payment produced
within a week. Cursory checking of sites that suffered since strongly
suggested comparable chicanery could well have contributed to their severity,
a suspicion shared by most of the many mugged by these moronic meddlers
including even the insurers themselves who have repeatedly remonstrated and
are now planning to pull their plug paying out for pointless policies. ||| What made
me monster my moan now after staying silent on all earlier events was
reported 23 warnings issued in a week for flooding that never obtained near
Oxford, trashing intolerable time for residents repeatedly returning home and
heating hotshots into contemplating considerable court compensation for
abysmal attention-attracting antics by agency apparatchiks mathsturbating on
meaningless models. This trait today is sadly shared by most institutions
paid from the public purse and strikingly so by our politicised police whose
state sanctioned abuse of authority now knows no limit in pursuit of
publicity, exemplified in closing a major motorway for over a day pointlessly
playing Poirot for forensic frolics. Indeed the posturing prats are now so
inured to insulting insanity by immunity from injunction that they even
engage in executing innocents without redress and even more extraordinarily
entombed a genteel girl on a terror ticket for over a day on whimsy of a
Gestapo gorilla gung-ho enough to ignore impeccable innocence of her
happening to cycle near a speciously suspected scene. I’ve my own scary story
about this cretinous cadre, one of whom disguised as drifter in an anonymous
ancient banger saw fit to shunt me off a motorway merely so as to assert
authority in screaming “SO19 officer armed at all times” and summon up a
vanload of mugger mates whom he assured me would have had me well worked over
at the station had I not dialled 999 just in time and happened on Scotland
Yard who would you believe guaranteed the gunman was indeed an authentic armed
officer and told him to back off without so much as a blink at his bizarre
behaviour which was never investigated despite my complaints to IPCC! Beggars
belief that our once eccentrically envied England has become ethically
emaciated to such an extent by perverse politicians as to provide a platform
for psychopathic policemen to play pistol poker and no redress, not even for
me as a Major Mainwaring mainstream middle-road-aged-class-Caucasian bona
fide Brit bolstered by twenty generations of nurtured nationality never mind
secret security status. Who’d ever have contemplated comprehensive
institutional incapacitation in two generations since our empire expired
leaving our etiquette abundantly still in evidence across Asia, Africa and America whilst we
incredulously irreversibly eliminated all evidence of esteemed institutional
ideologies still embraced elsewhere? It surely should be scarier than anyone
apparently admits that our descent in a decade of debt driven delusion has
left little as real resource for recessional rescue of deserving decent doers
deliberately don’ted by Lothian loonies who’ve honed their high-life heaps as
London luvvies. ||| As for fatuously flawed flood forecasting,
well it’s sickening so much systemic stupidity was pickpocketed from poor old
percy public during decades of drivelling descent into mired mediocrity of
Goedel’s graveyard for codified caricatures inevitably inadequate for
improperly parameterised phenomena never mind poorly perceived ones,
comprehensively compounded by coupling confusions: absurdity that was
absolutely anticipatable and utterly inexcusable when insightful individuals
always advocated appropriately approximate assessment for strategic synthesis
of purposeful policy in practical provisions, meaning manageably modest
metrics as inputs and outputs for retrieving responses without distraction of
indeterminate details. What moved me to ponder these things was mediocrity
manifested at meetings designated for dissemination of agency activities, in
reality promotional pap for wonderland webbage portraying postcoded risk
ratings pinched from insurance industry assessments available aeons earlier.
But it was despair dumped on an oldie ignored by his insurer for months after
millennial inundation that stimulated substantiation of simple sums sufficing
to stuff them up the agency’s arse as endorsement of eyeball evidence that
devastation was down to dereliction of duty, that bridge blockage burst the
banks and clogged culverts delayed drainage, worse that rural hamlets were
sacrificially swamped as a strategic scam to save considerable conurbations
where protection had never been provided as promised. In doing the
straightforward stuff spelled out subsequently I nearly meandered into
mathsturbating myself, inflating its importance by ignoring uncertainties
accumulatively associated with all approximated analyses. I got as far as
contemplating how ambient approach flow would be backed up by bridge blockage
with a view to estimating upstream extent of burst banks, also evolution of
exit excess from a specified storm zone as elementary exercises in simple
wave solutions, simple here in the special sense of characteristic
conservation from single-sided sourcing. It’s all so absorbingly addictive
that tritely titivating extensions embracing meander, deadness, flexure not
to say numerous other nuances including stochastic as well as deterministic
heterogeneities, are all speciously seductive indeed irresistible unless your
eye is firmly fixed on the basis ball, here being strictly pursuit of policy
predicated on paramount provision of practical plumbing including drainage
ditches and closed culverts amenable to energy equilibrium equivalents of my
example expounded below. If this lesson had been learned by agency autocrats
seduced by software stupidities conveying cartooned codswallop motivationally
maximised by ministerial morons making Machiavellian mileage for personal
promotion from webbed wonderland, then most maybe all of the costly calamities
could have been alleviated if not avoided altogether. ||| In this spirit, then, energetic equilibrium
between gravitational slope and frictional dissipation suffices to see that
the specific flow or speed U is set by depth H and reduced gravity g’ as U = Ö[g’H] with prime denoting
quotient of slope and friction factor 1/300 orso as ratio of bed stress to
mean speed, perhaps a tenth orso for Constabulary restful reference H 1m orso
and U 1m/s orso. With flood factor 4 or more on H this ambient accommodates
as excursion extremity 10cm rained over 30hour (1um/s) deposition draining
directly from 10x10km into basis breadth B 10m over length L 10km set by
storm scale (width W), such that storm flow 100cumecs is accommodated by UHB
with H 4m and U 2m/s for fixed g’, requiring B a bit bigger than basis but no
more than accommodated by standard sectional shapes whilst dispersively
deferred drainage diminishes loading level and g’ is also boosted a bit by reduced
relative roughness always assuming regular running repairs! Marginality
materialises here mainly in depth diminished surface slope because 1:3000
from 3m deepening over 10km fetch just about absorbs ambient associated with
restful reference assumed above so preservation of prime performance must be
paramount priority, not just to resist raised roughening from bushy banks and
silted beds but also to banish breadth blocking by broken branches beneath
bridge bulwarks, together clearly capable of cutting capacity by factor 2
orso and adequately accounting for burst banks that are now a sadly standard
sight following what were formerly seen as standard storms. An improved
indication includes imbalance reflecting river’s reservoir response VLB with
deepening rate V = dH/dt as initial reaction to rain inflow RLW (R=1um/s
here) that is ultimately accommodated in equilibrium excess UHB-A over
ambient A, such that the transition from initial to final phase is set by the
response time for emergence of equilibrium, parametrically L/U or about 3hr
for illustration indicated, meaning mostly the 30hr example episode evolves
effectively as an equilibrium event. Eschewing inevitable temptation to trot
out exact expressions extractable in terms of time dependency for ÖH, surely a standard textbook
topic since start of time, it’s still useful to see that whilst raised
roughness elevates equilibrium depth via reduced g’, blocked breadth boosts
it also during initial response via W/B and it’s devastatingly more damaging
if banks burst well before equilibrium is approached because it means the
worst will be a lot worse! And the millennial inundation that drove me to
distraction for the despair it caused to a great old guy was undoubtedly due
to both bits but it must have been the upwards 50% branch-blockage of bridge
bulwarks that bust the bucket. No surprise then that it was only a matter of
months before the agency acted to complete long overdue confinement
construction for the conurbation distantly downstream and cleared out the
bridge because they no longer needed it as a river restraint, indeed with
them having kept it clear continuously throughout the seven years since
anyone with an iota is bound to believe they really were, and still are, no
better than a bunch of blustering brigands. ||| |
|||| I graduated
aeons ago in aeronautics as mathematically motivated mechanics, its educational
ethos at Manchester Owens fathered by Osborne Reynolds of flowological
formula fame, furthered by Horace Lamb whose “Hydrodynamics” still twins with
George Batchelor’s “Introduction” as old to new testaments of theoretical
theocracy, fortified by James Lighthill (later RAE Farnborough Head &
“Sir”) feted for "Waves in Fluids" and legacy as last Lucasian
shunning shallow celebrity cronyism. Supervised by Neil Stevenson my PhD on
internal waves attracted attention from abstraction into “W-in-F” as
retrospective on HL’s inspiration insightfully implemented by JL for sussing
stealthy submarines, stuff that supposedly spawned simultaneous Soviet
sequestering of its first principles Greens function formulation for
diffusive dissipative spectral dispersion in designing as well as detecting
deeply disguised disturbances... at least according to Yuli Chasheshkin,
hotshot head of RAS Moscow Institute I chanced on a decade ago who conveyed
this Tom Clancy context 3 decades after the project I picked purely because
it furnished freedom for play & pub pursuits in parallel with instigating
ideas done-dusted-delivered a decade ahead of analogous applications for
aircraft stealthy signatures! Serendipity also saw me at London Imperial
mentored by Peter Bearman (later pro-Rector) as aeronautics RF playing a part
in foundation fixes of cfd codified cobblers for splatting stresses in
boundary blocked turbulence and at Cambridge DAMTP mentored by Julian Hunt
(later Met Office Head & “Lord”) as applied maths SRF playing a part in
foundation fixes of cfd codified cobblers for fractioning fluxes in
multiphase turbulence dynamics. Both improvements were inspired by ideas of
GI Taylor tenured as Cantabrian kingpin from HL to GB, generating generic
gains in myriad manifestations of which a contemporary critical couple could
be blade stage gauging for jet engine fuel minimisation and gas dissolution
to surface stirred deep sea as sink for fuel exhausts! ||||
It sure was sweet jet-setting continental conference circuits slagging
slipshod sillies in computational contrivances, especially commercially
capitalised corruptions rendered into regulatory requirements setting
so-called safety standards and fail-safe scenarios for conveyance and containment
of chemical & biological hazards and nuclear & hydrocarbon fuels.
Founded on my Osborne Reynolds Simon Engineering Fellowship mentored by Bill
Hall in Manchester Owens for correlation closures of buoyancy blocked
turbulence encountered as heat transfer inhibition in intensive exchangers of
power generating nuclear plant and more especially arising after fatal
accident burnout on a supercritical water unit, firsthand familiarity
eventually emerged especially from evaluation of subsea scenario software for
hydrocarbon high-pressure pipeline rupture post Piper Alpha catastrophe,
commissioned to comply with Cullen committee calls for toughened training
attaining awareness of composite complexities from explosive excursions in
multiphase-component thermo-turbulent bursting. Endorsed by experts and
issued as regulatory required reading, our report was withdrawn within weeks
for claimed compromising of commercial competitiveness of shoddy software and
it only emerged years later after Jim McQuaid (HSE S&T Head) procured
policy precedent from HMG cabinet office that agency approved advice must
never be blocked by business bluster. Sadly, software scamming survived to
spawn endemic excesses in ecological epidemonisation culminating in alchemy
of cataclysmic climatology, since stretched to sociological speculation
sustaining mismanagement madelling metastasised as unacknowledged baseless
baloney ballooned by avaricious apparatchiks gypping Goedelly gullible
governments globally grabbing for Stateside systemic similarity in
e-verything! |||| DAMTP’s cellar lab was always a cradle
for karma and mine came courtesy of John “Sea-Breeze” Simpson’s
gravity-current gear sharing space with Paul “Stirred-Layer” Linden’s
grid-box gear, suggesting a simple synthesis that straightway secured
similarity scales for buoyancy blocked mixing spanning from Hemholtz head
instabilities to horizontally homogeneous interfaces… an achievement whose
specialist sector significance for wind-water dynamics and discharges since
spread substantially courtesy of climate catastropheering. Similarly inspired
by JS Turner’s “Buoyancy Effects in Fluids” (JST was PL’s predecessor DAMTP
Lab Director and grid-box guru), I also showed to own satisfaction that
buoyantly blocked shallow shear-mixing as piecewise profiled parameterisation
sufficed to exemplify energy extraction including ~20% extremity and solitary
wave style scaling as precursor of complete collapse. DAMTP-like destiny also
drove my decade doing defencies as covert contractor courtesy of an expired
expert on film damped waves when as second string substitute for JT Davies at
Birmingham Chemeng I chanced to correct textbook trips-up by Lamb & by
Levich (“Physicochemical Hydrodynamics”; YC’s mentor even!), as well as by
Stateside specialists in same game at same time for same reason ~ beggars
belief saying silent submarines but really was, specifically for surfactant
significance in suppressing wind-riffles from helicopter downdraught
scouring. It also spawned simple sums on pervasive patches produced by
natural wind downdraught eddies in sourcing natural wind-waves excited by
airflow stress irregularities on splat patch spacing wavelengths, too long to
be directly suppressed by skinning but nonetheless inhibited via reduced
riffle-roughness, this bit courtesy of conceptual connection with classical
critical layer calculations for film-free water waves by John Miles
(mastermind mate of JL & GB). |||| Seeing as an
average academic seldom sniffs a single seminal solution it sure was slick by
any standard participating in provision of four or more, of which must
mention also my minimal model for two-point turbulence in terms of just two
confidently credible coefficients being Kolomogorov & Rotta classical
constants, a 70s spectral suggestion suited as sophisticated subscales scheme
in modern monstrosities of computational cartooning. But lady luck ladled me
much more as engineering exercises in fault-fixing for blue-chip commercials
and tech-tricking as patented practicalities via uk-DTI entrepreneurial
excellence awards for wind stir-snorkel sparged sewage restitution & lean
dose-drift sprayed plant protection. Former facilitated a VAW-Turbine topping

latter an Aeolian activator halving drop-size & wind-loss in virtue of
vorticity confined inertially enhanced resonantly excited emission, the pair
produced from four sequential SMART successes that secured Best Brit status
for FRED a few years from creation as a campus company establishing my
eligibility for covert contracts. All assorted activities were approved as
academic ancillaries by an exceptionally enlightened ex-Harwell physicist
Brum VC Michael Thomson for a decade of delivery during which he defended my
denial of donkey demands by meddling mediocrities for shredding syllabus on
traditionally taught theoretically toughest topics because they inspired
otherwise under stretched star students to persevere on PhDs with me in
pursuit of proper academic appreciation they felt denied in diminished
degrees pitched at delta diversification against their alpha aspiration at
what had historically been an elite establishment, these brightest best
(>3A-As, circa 1990 cachet!) even eschewing lucredous lures for financial
frippery deemed dropping-out and nearly all now a decade on respectably
rewarded in recognition of real responsibilities, several superbly so by any
standards. As for me, I peaked at 75 hours a week with my company commitment
comparable to my campus one and commensurate commission charged but mostly
paid in pursuit of promotional presences to consolidate contacts creating
commercial connections ~ and about same again was conveyed from company to
campus in cash and kind via an alter ego charitable complement FREDucational
Foundation for teaching and training. If I’d put my pay in property instead
of innovative initiatives I’d be a multimillionaire by now instead of
bowl-begging for consultancy crumbs and contractual contrivances in
politically propagandised programmes as rancid residue of formerly Great
British and especially English expertise that valued Victorian virtuosity in
inventing and implementing so much of the infrastructure that’s still central
to essential services over a century later. |||| All that
unequivocal evidence of achievement made it inevitable that within weeks of
MT retirement academic anonymities and admin apparatchiks who’d resentfully
resisted my freedom exacted envious vengeance by propositioning me with
premature pensioning or endure disrepute disciplining for failing to procure
prior permission on each and every encounter with many media merchants
intrigued by what was then termed the “FRED phenomenon”! With a cardiac
casualty as incoming VC anxiously soliciting soft sinecures for retirement
readies, the masonic missionaries masquerading as suited sleazies were sure
they’d screw me so as starter issued an expulsion order to remove my Powergen
wind tunnel just two years after FRED financed its transportation and
installation on a new mezzanine purpose paid in a backyard barn otherwise
unwanted because it wasn’t promotionally prettified and polished! Seeing my
strong science space allocated to an avant-garde archetype with processed
peas PhD topped by fried eggs for inaugural anointment by an arty-age
advocate of reed bed-lam, both god-grabbing greenies and card-carrying
correctness committunists, I was all set to succumb when serendipity smiled
again, an admittedly somewhat suicidal smirk, courtesy of Beeb’s Toady when I
happened to hear an old rugby rascal boozing buddy interviewed as incoming
Law Society head honcho so I sought his support, cashing in thirty-year chips
from his graduation holiday hosted at my family home! He assigned a legal
eagle who said he’d have had me on contingency for constructed dismissal if
I’d any affirmative action attributes as tribunal tricks but only crucifixion
could be contemplated for exemplary excellence empty of correctness
compliance! Emboldened by an advisory alliance with businessman Malcolm Addy,
leading light in the international innovation community courtesy of
commercial creativity, I told my tormentors that an ex-ACAS QC was taking my
case on contingency so please do disrepute and I’d counterclaim constructed
with MA’s media mates making a meal of their moronic malevolence! They bought
this bluff beautifully, boosting their opening offer to an irresistible
extent that I accepted also to escape avalanches of mindless missives from
dapper dunces needing nothing more meaningful to justify pay packs plusher
than any academic ever accessed! It really was only fear of image injury that
turned the trick because all academic advocacies, even from extreme echelons
of JL’s disciple David Crighton tree-topping DAMTP & Jesus, were
arrogantly abjured by the corporate cronies! |||| During the
decade to this demise my one-man Team FAST = Fluid And Surface Transport with
FRED = Flow Research Evaluation Diagnostics was biggest on the block, having
a dozen or so routinely in residence by way of researchers, visitors and
trainees doing a diversity of dimension that should have scared me stiff but
didn’t because things got done-dusted and time-targeted due to absence of
administrative assistance! Indicative inventories can be viewed via my
metamonikers, also campus complements as SMART supplements and defence
derivatives supported by PG & PD bursaries from FRED plus Royal Society
(Kaptiza & Chevening), British Council (France, Italy, Czechia, China,
Pakistan) and EP/BB-SRC (Cooperation and Excellence) awards as well as MOD
(ARE, DRA, DERA) money and Corporate (ICI, Schlumberger, Rothmans)
contributions. Pinnacle of personal pride was process biotechnology for
natural plant products as secondary metabolite therapeutics &
palliatives, a skill sourced from mega money in commercial contracts on
non-smoking options for nicotine culminating in a trickle filter
generator-extractor-concentrator for hairy roots. Its viability was verified
for scopolamine from datura but denied by BBSRC blinkered by blustering Tom
Blundell who busted so much in biotech and then beggared much more courtesy
of his Royal Commission correctness cavorting. BBSRC then did only mammalian
methods, then being before retroviral and prion frights floored all that
foresighted futurological futility and pushed them into plant processes but
too late for me with my team terminated for want of modest money to
materialise our metabolomics a decade before this terminological tripe was
trotted out! Cantabrian chemical cronies Blunderhell and Dave King (crusading
correctness chief; no comedian) combined to castrate British bulldogging best
whereby we had hit way above our weight in all international arenas whereas
nowadays conferences can be customarily convened without any nominee natively
tongued in English as universal language of knowledge (okay, courtesy of our
colonial cousins!), this capitulation cavalierly camouflaged by focus follies
claiming campaign-citizenry consensus suffices to signify sound science, a
stupid superstition strikingly reversing rude realities in most matters: viz
GMO, passive smoking, fossil fuels, landfills, speed cameras, road charges,
etc, etc! |||| It’s always amazed me that FAST-FRED
capability consolidated in under a decade from scratch start triggered by
tinkering with toroidal Taylor-Couette configurations for a bubble-free
bioreactor suited to sensitive cells driven to dormancy by stresses imposed
in industrial scale monocell suspensions. Deactivation damage during
disengagement had been a bugbear for ICI chasing Celltech’s commercial
capability as an airlift process producing human growth hormone. Our proving
project pinpointed energy density even to engine levels of MW/L (g-factor of
1000s!) due to miniscule mass in fragmenting films but we also provided
plumbing practicalities taking a trick from FRED’s formulation for polymeric
film damping of sea-waves, showing same stuff stifled energy extremities of
bursting bubbles. Shouldn’t say so but seems it also served to silence deep
dissolution of bubbles dispersed as dumped gases from electrolytic renewal of
submarine oxygen, a challenge considering hyperbaric implosion can be akin to
cavitation collapse in sourcing strongly supersonic shocks whereas surfactant
stifling even encouraged sinking silently to the seabed, mimicking multiphase
marine biotic behaviour delivering naturally encrusted gas-cored pellets onto
abyssal plains! Ideas implemented from involvement in formulating foundation
fundamentals for multiphase flux fractioning by turbulence and boundary
blockage of turbulence also assisted in designation of dispersers avoiding
agglomeration and associated acoustic autographs and in specification of
sonically sourced cavitating vorticity bursts for scavenging of diffusively
impeded electrolytic exchanges in batteries and gas generators, a cute call
explosively disrupting to 10um standoff not damaging delicate plate
electrodes or membranes. Acuter cognoscenti will conceptually connect from
former to the SMART sprayer spawned from mechanistically motivated
similarities entailing emission coupled coherence in dynamics and acoustics
and from latter to bioprocess capabilities commercially consolidated in
acoustic agitators achieving cell crushing and stimulation of surfaces with
molecular specific selectivity, sadly but inevitably not in UK but in US as
patented defence derivatives as ever demonstrating pathetic paucity of our
innovation investment via central civilianisation disservices and regional
degeneration agencies. Also deaf-eared for over a decade has been extensive
endeavour to instigate interest in implementing the electrode enhancer for
fuel cells in cars, accessing transiently to ten times rated output as
emergency escape or enormously increased flexibility of hybrid units. |||| Solutions in sea-silencing were initially inspired as
serendipitous speculation that ICI’s biodegradable marine lubricants had been
approved under regulations not recognising asphyxia associated with surface
skinning meaning modulus wasn’t mentioned. It still wasn’t recently as a few
years ago when I last raised it in relation to climate conundrums, upwards of
two decades since I scorned its absolute absence in all attributions and
subsequently shared this scepticism at an early 90s IUTAM conclave
co-convened with John Blake (JL’s PhD student!) on bubble dynamics and
interface phenomena. Firmly footed in formulation fundamentals with
phenomenological familiarity reinforced from five-year founding chair of an
ERCOFTAC Euro group styled WOW=Wind-Over-Waves, I also co-convened another
crème conference unmatched in the decade since, not least for JL’s swansong
showstopper on tropical typhoons, but this time spelled out my military
material on wave damping dynamics not characterised in climate catastrophe
cartoons. With prior participation in securing sound scaling for splat
stresses and fractioning fluxes both essential elements in air-sea exchanges,
it was inevitable once filming was added to my familiarity frame I’d incline
to implicate insidiously increased impact of contaminant concentrates
ironically imposed on particulate pollutants via regulatory revisions
initially instigated early 70s by Californian backyard bay buffoons to secure
seaward shedding of their smog but fast followed by woolly wonks worldwide
and especially enthusiastically by empty-headed euro-econogists egged on by
moneymaking mantra-mouths like Monbiot and moronic media mates as well as
armies of avaricious artistes assem-bling on gargantuan Gore’s graveyard
gravy train trundling to its tipping point the day after tomorrow! Codified
caricatures continue to convey deep-sea surface exchanges via classical correlation
coupling of wind with water as well-stirred stress layer whose ~10m depth has
similar thermal inertia as atmosphere, an assumption that alone precludes
mimicry of 70s sudden slope-switch and subsequent steepness of warming
wind-up whereas interfacial isolation due to inhibition filming by
superfactants explains abrupt transition that’s been headline hyped as
“hockey stick”. |||| That’s bad enough but until very
recently all the cartoons complied with elementary expectation that
evaporation would be higher in a warmer world whereas soundly old-schooled
weathermen worldwide have been recording reductions since the 70s. In the
spirit of fudged fixing, this disturbing discrepancy was astutely
accommodated by reduced surface UV attributed ad hoc to increased aerosol at
aeroplane altitudes, a perfect ploy for people plying energy envy for
purposes of political-personal promotion that since succeeded in the extreme
explosion of inane indignation against frequent flyers, yet was set squarely
against measured melanoma explosion epidemonologically attributed to higher
UV from opened ozone layers! Uhm, for anyone with an iota that should surely
have baked the cake in dogmatically discordant selective song-sheeting yet
no-one denigrated its nonscience, indeed never even whispered problematic
porkies! Rainfall reality of increased intensities separated by increased
intervals especially since the 90s have been conveyed only by contrivance in
codified caricatures, unsurprising seeing as rainfall is set by evaporation
which went wrong way until it was shUVelled in, whereas filming factors alone
account for inhibited evaporation accompanied with microlayer warming by
increased insolation and crucially also attenuated atmospheric nucleation
with compromised cloud condensation, respectively reflected in the increased
intensities and intervals! Seems surprisingly few are familiar with fact that
greenhouse gassing by 1-10% humidity outstrips 30-300 fold reference level
350ppm CO2 so 0.1-1% humidity outstrips 30-300 fold 35ppm CO2, this being the
10% boost blamed by blind believers for weather woes and warming warning of
hell fires to follow despite demonstrable dwarfing of its impact by humidity
hiccups completely concealed in codified correlation clutter, dominance that
is dismissed by faithful followers blustering background baseline as if
implying an invariant or independent influence despite self-evident
substantial shifts associated with adjusted evaporation-condensation
realities never mind nucleation inhibition etc hypothesised here that alone
accounts for observed emergence and expansion of intensified rain on extended
intervals since 70s. Capping all is claptrap code cop-out on their
undershooting of reality rates in icecap melting, a shortcoming speciously
spun as “conservative” by gullible goons in mass media manipulation as if an
extreme error evidenced even-handedness, whereas amplified absorptive
trapping and retention of heat within surface skinning affords an Occamesque
attribution (again). |||| So looks like all actualities are
accounted by arcane adulteration of exhaust emissions ignorantly imposed by
regulatory revisionists ironically as precautionary pseuscience promulgated
by promotional politicos consolidating their cliques conveyed as
Carson-Porritt-King-Stern perversion of Dawkins-Lovelock-Scilenced-Lunberg
precision ~ arguably, idiotic-dramatic-frenetic-demonic dogma versus
idiomatic-diagnostic-prognostic-pragmatic acuity. Nutshelled then, Occamed
even, paring particle sizes sufficed to shift their settling speed from more
to less than upward dispersive speed of ambient wind and so tipped their
typical transport from terrain trapped toward troposphere topping, thereby
increasing contamination carriage from coastal to continental resulting in
rained-out reduced reflectivity for snowy surfaces in polar peripheries &
at alpine altitudes, also comprehensively compounding coating coverage of
land and water by filming agents ironically incorporated for combustion chemistry control to comply on
regulatory requirements for reduced exhaust emissions particularly particle
sizes. It’s impossible to entirely exclude formulae from portrayal of these
points so sorry about succeeding sums but sorrier still that despite them
being trivial to all with iota of insight and trite even to arena
aficionados, they’ve not been aired at all never mind ad nauseam in
popularising pros and cons context of climate crusading. Their absence would
be gargantuan gob grunting except of course they’d finger god’s greenies as
dumb devils that caused the calamity which is why we never saw anything about
this angle in any of the reams that rubbished realities whilst considerably
carbonising the climate to boot! Anyway, here goes and if you really can’t
swallow this stuff then skip down to see these numbers really do add up as
alternative explanation! |||| In contrast
to Gore’s gulfflawed arctic Atlantic Hollywood howler, “tipping turn” is
almost appropriate for range response to halving particle size d’ from 50%
more to 25% less than transition at which settling speed u’ equals upward
dispersive speed u* which for typical ambient u ~10m/s with u* ~40cm/s also
approximately demarcates inertial ~d’^1/2 and viscous ~d’^2 settling speeds
at transition d* ~16um (densimetric g ~10^4m/s^2), upshot being inertial
suspension d =d’/d* >1 is largely confined in lower stress layer to
<10x terrain height whereas viscous suspension d <1 stretches through
the stress layer exponentially tailing in the upper troposphere above H ~1km
, the tropopause being ~10x higher at ~10km and terrain ~100x lower at T
~10m. Simple sums suffice to indicate ideas without mindless mathsturbation
unwarranted with all uncertainties, so although d* ~16um isn’t exact it’s
near enough and in any case life’s too short to mimic muddling manipulations
of codifying cuckoos! My guestimate also had steady uniform contaminant
concentration as ground condition posed as overland origin for maritime
migration because it suffices to tell the tale as well as escaping |
