Wave-Generated Current: A Second-Order Formulation

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2020
In Stokes’ wave theory, wave numbers are corrected in the third order solution. A change in wave number is also associated with a change in current velocity.

Testing cosmology with cosmic sound waves [PDF]

open access: yesPhysical Review D, 2008
WMAP observations have accurately determined the position of the first two peaks and dips in the CMB temperature power spectrum. These encode information on the ratio of the distance to the last scattering surface to the sound horizon at decoupling. However pre-recombination processes can contaminate this distance information.

Quantum-classical hypothesis tests in macroscopic matter-wave interferometry

open access: yesPhysical Review Research, 2020
We assess the most macroscopic matter-wave experiments to date as to the extent to which they probe the quantum-classical boundary by demonstrating interference of heavy molecules and cold atomic ensembles.

Sloshing Response of an Aquaculture Vessel: An Experimental Study

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2023
The sloshing response is crucial to the design and operation of aquaculture vessels and affects the safety of the culture equipment and the efficiency of the culture operation. A 1/50 scaled model was utilized to investigate the coupled sloshing response

WAVE PROPAGATION THROUGH SOILS IN CENTRIFUGE TESTING [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Earthquake Engineering, 1998
Wave propagation phenomena in soils can be experimentally simulated using centrifuge scale models. An original excitation device (drop-ball arrangement) is proposed to generate short wave trains. Wave reflections on model boundaries are taken into account and removed by homomorphic filtering. Propagation is investigated through dispersion laws.

A novel and simple passive absorption system for wave-current flumes

open access: yesAlexandria Engineering Journal, 2023
The physical limitations of experimental facilities, such as the walls and downstream gate of wave-current flumes, can cause excessive wave reflection.

rf breakdown tests of mm-wave metallic accelerating structures

open access: yesPhysical Review Accelerators and Beams, 2016
We are exploring the physics and frequency-scaling of vacuum rf breakdowns at sub-THz frequencies. We present the experimental results of rf tests performed in metallic mm-wave accelerating structures.
