Symmetric instability (SI) is credited with one of the important submesoscale instabilities. However, due to its small scales, it is challenging to capture using current observational measurements and ocean models. Estimates of SI activity are useful for...

The temperature of the solar cells on the upper surface of a solar unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) wing is much higher than the atmospheric temperature during flight. The temperature difference will induce buoyancy-driven Görtler vortices that may influenc...

In this paper, the vortex-induced force characteristics of a flexible riser with buoyancy modules and strakes were experimentally investigated. The strain information caused by vortex-induced vibration (VIV) at different cross-sections on the flexible cy...

Freak waves have great peak energy, short duration, great contingency, and strong nonlinear characteristics, and can cause severe damage to ships and marine structures. In this study, numerical simulations in conjunction with experimental tests are appli...

This research proposes the design of a mooring system that allows the floating platform to stably dive deep enough to prevent damage induced by typhoon waves. The design principle of the mechanism is that the submarined floating platform with negative bu...

Lakes are known to be strongly affected by climate change as a result of their sensitivity to atmospheric forcing. The combined response of urban lakes to climatic changes and to urbanization of the catchment may be further altered by water quality manag...

An experimental study was performed to investigate the behavior of inclined negatively buoyant jets. Such jets arise when brine is discharged from desalination plants. A turbulent jet with a specific salinity was discharged through a circular nozzle at a...
