Definitions of Coriolis effect noun (physics) an effect whereby a body moving in a rotating frame of reference experiences the Coriolis force acting perpendicular to the direction of motion and to the axis of rotation; on Earth the Coriolis effect deflects moving bodies to the right in the ...
Although not actually a force by the physical definition (M × L/T2), this effect is called Coriolis force , named for G. G. de Coriolis who first quantified the effect in the nineteenth century.The deflection of moving objects in the Northern Hemisphere is to the right of the path of ...
Scientific American is part of Springer Nature, which owns or has commercial relations with thousands of scientific publications (many of them can be found at www.springernature.com/us). Scientific American maintains a strict policy of editorial independence in reporting developments in science to our...
(Astronomy) a fictitious force used to explain a deflection in the path of a body moving in latitude relative to the earth when observed from the earth. The deflection (Coriolis effect) is due to the earth's rotation and is to the east when the motion is towards a pole ...

As in the case of waves on a falling film, a linear relationship between the wave velocity and the maximum of the film thickness has been determined for axisymmetric waves in a film flowing over a spinning disc. To cite this article: G.M.Sisoev etal., C. R. Mecanique 332 (2004)....

In the present manuscript, the effects of small perturbations in the centrifugal and Coriolis forces with additional effect of three-body interaction on the locations as well as stability of the stationary points (SPs), and on the topology of the basins of convergence (BoCs) linked with these ...
Coriolis Effect on Sounding Rocket Impact PointsAn analytical expression for the impact point deflection of sounding rockets due to the rotation of the earth is derived by calculating the Coriolis perturbation for an idealized parabolic trajectory. Error estimates are given and show that the simplified...
