Development and evaluation of a rip current forecasting system for channel-type rip currents on a low-energy headland beach

open access: yesGeomatics, Natural Hazards & Risk
A 34-day field observation was conducted on a headland beach in South China with a typical channel rip current system. The Delft3D model was applied to reproduce hydrodynamic conditions and extract rip currents, while a Generalized Additive Model (GAM ...

Copper Electroplated TPMS Polymer Lattices for Lightweight Absorption Dominant Electromagnetic Interference Shielding

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
Copper electroplating transforms lightweight 3D‐printed TPMS polymer lattices into effective electromagnetic shields. Topology, relative density, and conductive seed layer continuity govern copper penetration, electrical resistance, and attenuation. SEA consistently exceeds SER, while 35% RD Diamond lattice gives the best performance, reaching 48.72 dB

Undertow, Rip Current, and Riptide [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Coastal Research, 2012
Abstract Leatherman, S.P., 2012. Undertow, rip current, and riptide. Undertow, rip current, and riptide are terms used to describe a variety of currents, all of which have different characteristics. However, much of the general public, news media, and even dictionary definitions confuse and misidentify these potential hazards at surf beaches.

Pulsing and circulation in rip current system

open access: yes, 2004
Current pulsations from a longshore bar and trough rip system located on the eastern coast of Moreton Island, Australia are presented. These pulsations occur over 10-20minute intervals through the rip system and are correlated to both water level ...

A Proof‐of‐Concept Assessment of a Novel Wearable Eyelid Muscle Device: A Pre‐Clinical Animal Cadaver Study for Eyelid Closure Restoration

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
This article introduces a soft wearable eyelid sling device incorporating a hydraulic soft artificial muscle (SAM) for achieving complete closure of an eyelid. The SAM is driven by a cam mechanism that provides a displacement profile closely matched with those of a healthy eyelid.

Responses of Swimmers Caught in Rip Currents: Perspectives on Mitigating the Global Rip Current Hazard

open access: yesInternational Journal of Aquatic Research and Education, 2011
Rip currents are a primary mechanism on many of the world’s beaches associated with rescues and drownings and have long been the focus of beachgoer education and awareness strategies. Traditional approaches to mitigating the rip current hazard typically provide information on escape procedures for beachgoers caught in a rip current.
