Index tides.
If on a tablet, set the display vertically; if on a smart phone, set it horizontally.
In order to ease the reading, I advise to conform the column of the text to the line below.

To return to the prologue on the tides.

Itinerary 2.1 - On the current theory about tides.
2.1.1 - Classic representation of the tides.
2.1.2 - Two contributions.
2.1.3 - Hypothesis.

Itinerary 2.2 - Introduction to the tides.
Itinerary 2.3 - How this research on tides started.
When an area of knowledge, taken for granted, is found to be instead terra incognita.
(edition 2019-02-16; updated 2021-09-03).
This itinerary traces the difficult beginning of the collection of data, intended to understand, from the behaviour of the water, if it too is subject to cumulative-dissipative processes, induced by its movement with respect to the Moon (and the Sun). It tells you how our minds find it difficult to accept something that is new to them.

2.3.7 - Problems of perception.
2.3.8 - Perspectives.
Itinerary 2.4: the water figures.
In liquid water “force d” acts often but only on a few molecules per single event. Consequently, the processes which give rise to the tides are widespread but hidden from the naked eye, save in particlar location and at particular times. Then the phenomenon is amplified and reveals itself to be due to a variation of water density.

========================================================
Itinerary 2.5: the mechanism of the tides.
It is proposed an hypothesis of the mechanism of the tides, following the approach of considering the tide waves, as the delayed consequence of the variation of the water density, and of its volume, at different times, within a tide basin.
2.5.1 The mechanism of the tides - introduction.
