Comparison of theories for acoustic wave propagation in gassy marine sediments

open access: yes, 2014
More than three decades ago, Anderson and Hampton [1, 2] (A&H) presented theories for wave propagation in gassy water, saturated sediments and gassy sediments in their two part review, which has been cited by many researchers in the geoacoustics and ...

Linear System Identification and Control of a Low‐Cost High‐Performance Omnidirectional Marine Surface Vehicle for Swarming Applications

open access: yesJournal of Field Robotics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Marine operations traditionally rely on human intervention, a costly and disruptive method. Autonomous surface vehicles (ASVs) offer a powerful alternative, capable of operating autonomously, for extended periods, and with various sensors for various missions.

Contemporary aspects of the theory and application of nonlinear acoustics

open access: yesArchives of Acoustics, 2005
The foundations of nonlinear acoustics may be traced nearly 250 years back in time, but only the last 50 years have shown an increasing number of attempts to exploit the research results in nonlinear acoustics.

WIDE-BAND CHANNEL MODEL FOR UNDERWATER ACOUSTIC COMMUNICATION AND ITS APPLICATION TO KALMAN FILTER BASED CHANNEL ESTIMATOR

open access: yes, 2020
Underwater acoustics communication system design is a challenging endeavor due to several technical as well as environmental parameters such as salinity of water, temperature, frequency and time selectivity of the channel, different sea bed surfaces ...

Design and Testing of a Minimal Configuration Underwater Micro‐Glider: Automating Lake and Reservoir Monitoring

open access: yesJournal of Field Robotics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Uncrewed underwater vehicles (UUVs) have transformed oceanographic research through autonomous data gathering. Similarly, lake and other aquatic research can potentially be automated and transformed. However, UUVs would need to be smaller, lighter, less complex, and cheaper than currently available to make them more practical and user‐friendly

River‐Scale Evaluation of a Floating LED Light Array for Behavioral Guidance of American Eel

open access: yesRiver Research and Applications, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Exploiting the sensory physiology of migratory fishes to guide them away from hazards like hydroelectric turbines is of interest to regulatory agencies and hydropower operators to achieve conservation and management goals. Here we describe a river‐scale experiment where out‐migrating adult American eel (Anguilla rostrata) were tracked ...

Non‐Physical Barrier Design and Environmental Conditions Alter Routing and Survival of Juvenile Chinook Salmon (Oncorhynchus tshawytscha) in the Sacramento‐San Joaquin River Delta

open access: yesRiver Research and Applications, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Pacific salmon face substantial challenges when migrating through anthropogenically modified river systems, such as the Sacramento‐San Joaquin River Delta (the Delta). Non‐physical behavioral barriers, such as the bioacoustic fish fence (BAFF), are one potential solution for guiding fish away from hazards without obstructing water flow ...

Search and Passage Are Decoupled for Migrating Trout Kelts at Multi‐Exit Dam

open access: yesRiver Research and Applications, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Longitudinal and lateral river connectivity have been drastically reduced over time, with hydropower development as a major driver of fragmentation. While fishways are widely implemented to support upstream migration, downstream passage remains a major challenge.

Portierung eines Raytracing-Verfahrens zur Ermittlung des Zielmaßes (TES) von Unterwasserobjekten auf GPUs - ein Erfahrungsbericht

open access: yes
Investigations of a test implementation of the “simple” Kirchhoff approximation method (KIA) for GPU graphics adapters (using OpenCL) have shown that, depending on the GPU hardware available, significant performance improvements can be achieved ...
