Rip current likelihood as a function of incident wave conditions for different bathymetries
Applied Ocean ResearchThe likelihood of rip currents as a function of water depth (tidal level), incident wave height, period, direction, and spectral spreading in both frequency and direction is investigated with a Boussinesq numerical model (FUNWAVE) for alongshore uniform,

Public perceptions of a rip current hazard education program: “Break the Grip of the Rip!” [PDF]
Natural Hazards and Earth System Sciences, 2017 Rip currents pose a major global beach hazard; estimates of annual rip-current-related deaths in the United States alone range from 35 to 100 per year.

Rip Current Identification in Optical Images Using Wavelet Transform
Journal of Marine Science and EngineeringRip currents are fast-moving, narrow channels of water that flow seaward from the shoreline, typically forming within the surf zone and extending beyond the wave-breaking region.

Rip Currents on a Cornish Beach [PDF]
Nature, 1965 RIP currents have been measured at Holywell in West Cornwall, where a sandy beach is open to waves and swells from the Atlantic. A rip current is a narrow streak of water which flows seawards from the beach; it carries the return flow of the general shorewards transport of water produced by the breaking of waves.

Nondestructive Testing of Welded Composite Metal Foams
Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.X‐ray computed tomography (CT) is used to evaluate welded steel–steel composite metal foam (CMF) joints of two density classes. It reports variation in postweld spatial void distribution and correlates it to weld‐induced changes, mechanical performance, and failure within welded CMF panels.

Kite Aerial Photography (KAP) for rip current identification in Parangtritis Beach
E3S Web of Conferences, 2019 Rip current is being the major cause of the deadly accidents in Parangtritis Beach. This occasion can be prevented by mapping and monitoring the spatial pattern of rip currents at the location which rip currents are located.

Electrified Damage in Motion Systems
Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.The electrified damage in motion systems is a fundamental framework presenting the degradation pathway arising from the coupling of electrical energy transport with mechanical contact and interfacial chemistry. The framework positions electrified damage as a distinct degradation regime with unique characteristic surface morphologies and failures of ...
