Coupling effect of wind-wave-undercurrent on cross-sea bridges and flow characteristic around bridges

open access: yesAdvances in Bridge Engineering
In the marine environment, some coastal infrastructures, especially the coupling effect of wind, wave, and undercurrent, interfere with cross-sea bridges.

Quantifying errors in wind and wave measurements from a compact, low-cost wave buoy

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2022
A yearlong wind and wave dataset derived from a cost-effective GPS wave buoy (Spotter) is compared to waves obtained from an accelerometer wave buoy (Datawell) and winds obtained from a collocated meteorological buoy.

Wave Modeling of the Solar Wind [PDF]

open access: yesLiving Reviews in Solar Physics, 2010
The acceleration and heating of the solar wind have been studied for decades using satellite observations and models. However, the exact mechanism that leads to solar wind heating and acceleration is poorly understood. In order to improve the understanding of the physical mechanisms that are involved in these processes a combination of modeling and ...

Investigation of Laser Ablation and Brush Pre‐Treatments for AlCu Cold Roll Bonding in Oxygen‐Free Conditions

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
It is shown that laser ablation pretreatment under oxygen‐free conditions enables copper–aluminium bonding at significantly lower deformation degrees and improved properties compared to mechanical brushing. Laser ablation further increases interface contact area and induces favourable residual stress states and microstructural compatibility ...

Wind Generated Rogue Waves in an Annular Wave Flume [PDF]

open access: yesPhysical Review Letters, 2017
We investigate experimentally the statistical properties of a wind-generated wave field and the spontaneous formation of rogue waves in an annular flume. Unlike many experiments on rogue waves, where waves are mechanically generated, here the wave field is forced naturally by wind as it is in the ocean.

Air‐Pressure–Actuated Vibroacoustic Metamaterial With Tunable Bandgap: Design, Modeling, and Characterization

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
This article presents the design, modeling, and characterization of air‐pressure–actuated programmable vibroacoustic metamaterials (PVAMM). The study focuses on leveraging air pressure to dynamically tune resonance frequencies for effective noise attenuation.
